[QUOTE=TheTalon;19774538]Also Conan argued for more money for his staff more than he argued for money for himself[/QUOTE] I would hope so. 1 person and 100s more? Of course he should argue for more money for them. He has to split it. They took 100s of people families and moved them to Cali from New York for this shit. NBC: Nothing but cunts (Quoted from Adam Sandler)
Leno is just stale now... NBC is the one really getting the shaft here. I enjoy Conan's humor and hopefully he returns to television with a company that appreciates his talents.

Completely unrelated but CONAN HAS FUCKING PEE WEE HERMAN ON. Conan has never been better. I'm starting to suspect that they may keep him on. This whole business makes [I]great fucking material.[/I]

Well, okay. All I know is that this is probably the greatest Conan O'Brien Episode I've ever seen.
Is there a link anywhere to see the entire thing? Kind of like Daily show and Colbert Report have?
What are the recent ratings comparing Jay Leno's Tonight Show and Conan's? I thought Conan was much funnier, and most likely relates to a younger crowd. Jay Leno just isn't funny any more, nor did I think he was in the first place. I really dislike NBC, they always pull the shit I watch, and add in something made of shit. [quote=TheTalon]Is there a link anywhere to see the entire thing?

I'm assuming that if it were anywhere, it'd be there.

Power to him, though he will be missed. He has always written the majority of his material (if not all). A dying concept in modern comedy/showbiz. Plus the moving thing? NBC's just throwing a fit because the old guy (Leno) doesn't get as much attention as he used to (didn't even have it WITH The Tonight Show). Conan's doing the honorable thing by stepping down and not giving in to NBC.
he won't be hosting another late night talk show until september 1st and jay will be back on the tonight show sometime around march
[QUOTE=evilking1;19760917]32 million isn't good? It's a quite decent handshake for ending up a unprofitable show...[/QUOTE] If he gets another contract, it subtracts from the 32 million. For example, If Fox pays him 20 million, until his contract expires, NBC will only pay him 12 million. So if they really want to be assholes, Fox will pay him minimum wage until his contract runs out.

I really hope fox picks up Conan, not because I'm particularly fond of the network (though House, Lie to Me, and Fringe are good), but because they'll probably let him to whatever the hell he wants.
I wonder if he's going to be on tonight and how much it will cost NBC. I guess I find out later on Fox News.
This whole thing is just a huge bag of dicks. Conan will leave and Jay will move back to 11:35 and get even shittier ratings because the late night crowd won't watch in spite. Good job NBC. I hope to see Conan in the "Bangbarian" (though not really D:)
Holy shit he has been ripping the SHIT out of NBC. Conan is vicious. [editline]03:51PM[/editline] Wow this is the greatest talkshow episode I have ever seen. [editline]03:52PM[/editline] It's like Network only real!
Long live Conan.
