Tonight Show to Finally Discover: Conan + LA...If They Mated

2009_05_conanLA.jpg Unless you were one of those people on Friendster who used to list "Kill Your Television" under Favorite Shows, you probably have heard that Conan O'Brien will be taking over The Tonight Show later this evening. As New York officially lets go of its red-headed late night stepchild once and for all, Conan introduces himself to Los Angeles with an inaugural show that has a distinct '90s feel to it: his guests are Will Ferrell and Pearl Jam and the return of old sidekick Andy Richter as his new announcer. Will Pimpbot 5000 return as well? In an interview with today's Times, Conan said, "I can’t go anywhere without people saying, ‘Good luck in LA’ Or, ‘What’s it like in LA?’ Osama Bin Laden is in a cave somewhere saying, ‘I wonder how Conan will be in LA.’”

    I don't think the LA smog will make him any funnier, but he'll be funnier than Leno. Although that is not very hard since Leno is not funny.

  • Mr Mel

    My advice to Conan, bring it back to NYC.
