[@johnavernia1026]

Seriously, this is probably one of the best celebrity interview I've seen in a long time. Conan should do this regularly.

[@Lucifronz]

It was great, but I think a large part of it was their chemistry. They get along really well and are good at both light jabs and self-deprecating humor and aren't afraid to do either in front of each other on TV. You can't really replicate this with other people. It's hilarious in part because they get along so well and understand each others' humor. *Miles* above any interviews Conan's done in the past probably decade, though.
