Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted August 28, 2002 Starting this fall. It will be great to see the show at its best (not that it still isn't funny) with Andy and before most people realized the show was funny. This of course got me wondering. What are some of your favorite Conan O'Brien moments? -Triumph at the Star Wars Line -Lakewood the Gay Soap Opera -Andy's Retirment -Conan turning into The Incredible Hulk -That funky porno music -Pimpbot 5000 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted August 28, 2002 Triumph at the Star Wars premier is my favourite. That segment had me bursting out in laughter, I loved every part of it. I even downloaded it off Kazaa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Big McLargeHuge Report post Posted August 28, 2002 Anything 'Triumph' is Gold. But yeah the Star Wars premeire was hilarious. Especially when that Lord of the Rings mark showed up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted August 28, 2002 In the Year 2000[/ECHO] whenever the celebrity imposters have interviews on the dropdown tvs with the lips cut outs. OJ, President(s), Farakan my favorite skit was when Connan went on location to a Houston bus stop at 3:00 AM asking people if they knew who he was The parody of the NBC Public Announcements that Max did.

Guest Kingpk Report post Posted August 28, 2002 - Any Triumph skit - When Conan & Andy go for a drive with the desk - The staring contests - Conan goes to Houston ("Where's the little fat dude?") The show just isn't the same without Andy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted August 28, 2002 introducing new characters for the show like.....the Masterbating Bear and Camel Toe Annie the football parties that Connan, Max, Joel the Announcer have, especially the Superbowl one. Best still photo comedy ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Report post Posted August 28, 2002 "whenever the celebrity imposters have interviews on the dropdown tvs with the lips cut outs. OJ, President(s), Farakan" I second that. I remember watching some White House correspondents (sp?) dinner years ago on C-Span in which Conan was the host. He did that skit with Bill Clinton. From what I saw it didn't look like it went over well, but then again I didn't see all of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Karnage Report post Posted August 28, 2002 Conan has so much memorable stuff. -The guy who plays Preparation H. Raymond -Triumph The Insult Comic Dog -The Max/Joel/Conan parties -In the Year 2000 (Mr. T cracking up in the whole skit) -The Max on Max or Joel on Joel With Joel Watching videos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Matt Young Report post Posted August 29, 2002 This is indeed great news. I saw the commercials during the Cheech and Chong movie last night. However, they said that they would be replaying the previous night's NBC episode, not showing older episodes like they do with their SNL re-runs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Max Danger Report post Posted August 29, 2002 When Conan went to Houston. Triumph at the Westminster Dog Show. Well, basically anything with Triumph. The 'Where in the Building is Andy Ritcher' was pretty good. There's just a ton of stuff from Conan. Best late night show ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest OctoberBlood Report post Posted August 29, 2002 When does these re-runs start? Anyways, to add on to those moments, I crakced up when he done those police chases, ah .. so much fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest imajackoff? Report post Posted August 29, 2002 There's just a ton of stuff from Conan. Best late night show ever. I love Conan(especially w/Andy), but the accolade of "best late night show ever" has to go to 82-86 Letterman. Talk about balls-out comedy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest treble charged Report post Posted August 29, 2002 I fucking hate my NBC affiliate, as they don't show Conan until 1:30. That's right, after Leno goes of the air, they show Jenny Jones. Yup, Jenny FUCKING Jones over Conan O'Brien. I used to get it at 12:30 on a local independant station from Ottawa, but they stopped showing after they got the new set, for some reason. Anyway, most of the Triumph segments are my favourite moments, including the Star Wars segment (which was just beyond hilarious), and when he went to the Bon Jovi concert.

Yup, Jenny FUCKING Jones over Conan O'Brien. Be thankful you don't live in Houston then That was my favorite one too, I'm surprised so many others have seen it - I'd always figured it was kinda obscure. The skits where Conan uses the NBC stellite to show obscure cable channels is the best. The "Max on Max" channel was the funniest thing I'd ever seen in my life and it probably still would be if they hadn't replayed the footage 90 times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Strike Force! Report post Posted August 29, 2002 Thank goodness. Comedy Central is one of the most worthless cable channels (in a group of about 50-60 worthless cable channels), but this will give me a reason to watch. One of my favorite Conan moments was the show on the same night as the last episode of Seinfeld. He was thinking of ways NBC could cash in on the last Seinfeld episode more. One idea he has was to put the Seinfeld segue music on NBC Nightly News. It was so funny to hear that segue music going from Tom Brokaw to a report on an earthquake. Tasteless, but funny...that's Late Night With Conan in a nutshell. Thanks for making my day with this news. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted August 29, 2002 He did the same thing with the NBA music, except it was right in the middle of friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted August 30, 2002 That's awesome news... even if it's just the rerun of the night before, I love Conan, but I'm terrible at staying up late to watch him. The only times I can I either have someone else over so I can't concentrate, or I'm on the computer, which is in a different room from the TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted August 30, 2002 Anyone remember late night cliffhangers? They're too ridiculous to describe, but the man on the horse pointing a sword at a fish...oh man it just came out of nowhere. Whale week was pretty amusing too.

Guest pochorenella Report post Posted August 30, 2002 The staring contests are rarely done now that Andy's not on the show. I think that's a shame, they were really great. Anyway, most of the Triumph segments are my favourite moments, including the Star Wars segment (which was just beyond hilarious), and when he went to the Bon Jovi concert 100% in agreement. Triumph rules the fucking earth! And did anyone see the skit with pictures from Conan's Oscar party? The one with a Joel picture were he had no testicles? Damn funny! Another thing here was that the picture machine broke and Conan had to improvise a strip dance. Great stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hardyz1 Report post Posted September 1, 2002 Anyone remember the Running of the Characters? I think it was in 1998. So fucking hilarious. Everything Triumph does. In the Year 2000. If They Mated. My favorite of this was on last year. What would happen if a whore and a clown had a kid? Christina Aguilera in her Lady Marmalade look. Ventriolquist Dummy Choir. This hasn't been on in ages. The 21 year old animal expert he has on occasionally. These segments are classic. The "interviews" with celebrities with the mouth cutouts. I remember back in 2000 after the Democratic Convention they had a TV with Bill Clinton on it doing his entrance from the back like he did at the convention. As the TV passed a hot chick, the TV turned and stared at her ass. Closed Caption. I haven't seen this in a long time. And, of course, the staring contests, especially the last one. And so much more.

Guest Nevermortal Report post Posted September 1, 2002 I just downlaoded the Triumph goes to Star Wars, and its honestly one of the funniest things ever done...ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted September 1, 2002 If the commercial I saw Conan's only on Wednesday nights. Hopefully that's wrong. Another skit that was funny is after the NCAA B-Ball championships they would reinact the game with characters like the gaseous weiner, and the fake Abe Lincoln. Here's a question. Who are those guys in the skits. They've been around forever. I would guess their writers, but if someone know's for sure let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Big McLargeHuge Report post Posted September 1, 2002 I think they are the writers. I'd assume it'd be cheaper than hiring actors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest starvenger Report post Posted September 2, 2002 It's on every weeknight, starting this Wednesday. I'm not sure if they're gonna show old shows, though. An ad that I saw seems to indicate that they're airing the previous night's show at 7pmET, which makes sense given when they're starting to air reruns.
