Conan O’Brien Makes His "Tonight Show" Return and Reminisces on His Time Hosting "Late Night"

[@rajnil_thakur]

Conan killed it in Hot Ones. He was funny, dropped a few words of wisdom and also plugged in his new show, all while rinsing his face with da bomb. Respect!

As much as I already loved Conan, (Fan since 1996)I actually gained more respect for him from that interview. It was complete mind over matter for him to be so lucid in moments of excruciating pain

[@alexcapatina57]

Met and served Conan, his wife and his boy at a bar I worked at a hotel in London. We got plenty of celebrities through, but none really struck me the way Conan did, I grew up watching his show. He noticed that I was kind of lost for words and I told him how much I adored him and his work. He couldn't have been sweeter, despite being with his family just enjoying dinner and a few drinks, yet both him and his wife were so warm and friendly. Felt like he was more interested in me than I was in him, which was really unexpected. Conan deserves all the flowers. Truly a man of the people.

[@scottystcloud7086]

I love stories like this. Years ago I worked in PR and heard stories from limo drivers (who I knew really well as we were constantly booking cars for celebs to go to junkets, premieres, awards shows, etc). Word has it, George Clooney was notorious for bringing a plate of food out to his drivers when he was at premieres/parties knowing they had to wait for him until he was ready to leave. Never broadcasted it or was filmed doing it, that is good karma man.

[@billyeveryteen7328]

Both Conan and his good friend and former head writer Robert Smigel have talked about how they wanted to try their best to do "evergreen" comedy. Most comedy has a shelf life, and if you're doing topical humor, that shelf life is even shorter. But Conan's remotes are still as funny now as they were 20 years ago. Conan playing old-timey baseball, or Conan going to the Lincoln museum, those will still be funny 20 years from now. I mean no disrespect to either Seth Meyers or Stephen Colbert, I think they have wonderful writers and they're great performers, but there's little to no reason to go back and watch their late night clips even a week later.

[@rajkumarbargaje9793]

I am from India and I think I have only watched complete youtube clips, from start to end, of only one late night show which was the Conan show on TBS. I have watched each and every clip available on Conan's youtube channel 😊

[@toyotaboyhatman]

conan is so underrated, wished I had watched his talk show more in his prime. really been enjoying his podcast.

[@christopherporter2459]

Yeah you have no idea what underrated is. He's clearly loved and highly rated.

[@dannypockets]

He’s one of the most beloved and influential comedians of all time.

[@jasonjohnson4803]

Conan is not underrated! (respectfully) you're crazy to even say such a thing.

[@slca]

Underrated????? Come on

[@ME-gp7wc]

This is a lovely sentiment, but he is widely respected and beloved

[@FlattStanley]

Conan just showing producers what they let go, he could absolutely walk back into that chair! I am gutted we don't have Conan anymore but can't wait to see what he's got planned 😊

[@TheAluvisify]

He may not have a TV show anymore, but we honestly have more Conan than ever before. He lets loose on his podcast way more than he really did on late night.

[@SC-qu7wk]

He has a new show that will be coming out on HBO max 😊

[@latteslettersandlife]

Watching Conan was my life as a teen. I loved him. So sad when he took over the big one and was removed without even given a chance. Late Night wasn’t the same since.

[@Ktcsr17]

I’ve been a Conan fan for a couple decades now. He deserved the tonight show. But I’m so happy for him and his staff and his family. He really proved who he was during that time. And in my opinion, he will go down with Dave as the greatest of all time. ❤

[@TonyNguyen-uc9mh]

@Ktcsr17 Conan was not very cooperative during his time as "The Tonight Show" host. For example, he assured all the NBC executives that he'd tailor his material to the 11:35pm audience, then admitted he had no intention of changing a thing. He was also reluctant to take their suggestions. They wanted him to go into the audience more, which he did for a while...and then skipped it. The network thought he should have the biggest stars early in his run to attract the new 11:35pm audience, but by week 2 he booked his favorite, Norm MacDonald. A funny guy to be sure, but Norm's was more of a niche appeal. When the ratings were dropping, NBC wanted him to book Sarah Palin to get a ratings boost. Conan refused. He was afraid Dave Letterman wouldn't like that. Conan's getting crushed in the ratings. The network that made his dream of hosting "TTS" come true is losing money, and he won't book a hot guest because he's afraid to offend his biggest competitor. Every talk show host had a time slot guarantee written into their contract- except Conan. If he hadn't neglected to get this, the network would not have been able to insist he move to 12:05am. At the time he signed the deal with NBC to drop Jay at the end of his contract so he could take over "The Tonight Show," Conan was getting huge offers from ABC and FOX to do a show of his own at that earlier hour. The FOX offer came with a salary that was almost double what NBC was going to pay him to wait 5 years. If he'd gone to one of those competing networks when they were so anxious to have him, nobody would've had to lose their job over it, and "The Tonight Show" debacle could've been averted.

[@jeremymcinturff985]

I am sad they edited it for KZbin, but shoutout to The Roots for playing Conan's "Late Night" theme song as he was walking out.

[@har71277]

Conan’s remotes especially the ones with his staff and clueless gamer are two of my favourite things to watch on KZbin

[@markbond7314]

I love this man. Love love love love him.

[@Dan-Simms]

Loved his late night show, I sure miss it.

[@sisamusudroka3000]

Jf is like a flashlight next to a Sun who is Conan O'Brien

[@lilsebastian2209]

Take a look, in the first conan intervention, when he walks to show how he greets short guests, how he didnt went to Jimmy's area in the back to not brake the host-guest dynamic. Such a gentleman

[@capribreezee]

Conan is so quick and witty, watching him work is incredible. You can see his gears turning and coming up with content in milliseconds

[@XzotecMania]

Conan is the funniest late night host there will ever be. Thank god for KZbin I can watch all his material whenever I want.

[@Crazydude2116]

The muppet pipe joke. See how QUICKLY he came up with that. That is so good. I think because conan is quite a busy man, he can't come to rehearsal, so i can only assume its all on the spot. Amazing.

[@deadpatronus]

We kinda wanna see the standing ovation Jimmy...

[@kstepko]

Yeah … that’s some very intentional editing there.

[@ThamiumOne]

​​@@kstepko- Well, true - it is intentional, but you might be assuming the wrong reason. If you go play the start of almost all of these KZbin guest clips from the show, you'll start to notice Jimmy's introductions are usually edited out and the guests are already sitting down or about to. One of the main reasons is that NBC is trying to avoid needing to pay music royalty fees for whatever song the band is playing when the guests walk out. They already have to cover that once when the show is broadcast, so by cutting it out here, they avoid having to do it twice. Plus it gets around any music copyright flags KZbin itself might flag the video with. *Note added: This seems to be unique just to Tonight Show guests clips, because it's not done by NBC on clips from Seth Meyers, and the other networks don't seem to do it for Jimmy Kimmel, or Stephen Colbert clips either. Maybe something in the contracts with Jimmy Fallon or the Roots band(?)*

[@istdochallesegal3427]

​@@ThamiumOne well-reasoned!

[@nonbinaryDes]

@@ThamiumOne i think it's just to cut the fluff. But go off i guess

[@adamdesanti6713]

Yeah, that's a shame. It's probably a copyright or policy thing. Certainly exceptions can be made. Conan returning to the Tonight Show as a guest after the notorious falling out and getting a standing ovation is kind of a great television moment, wouldn't you think? Worthy of an exception. One of the higher ups saying "yeah, we need to include this."

[@kovulion7777]

Damn, you can just see how much Conan is a master of comedy and entertaining people and the audience!

[@anapadilla7133]

Conan needs to come back !! Love love love him! So happy they put him on.

[@melissylum4106]

I watched Conan every weekend, summer, and day off school from age 8. Hated Leno, but I LOVED him.

[@michaelm6867]

I miss Craig Ferguson as well

[@JonnyDIY]

🤣 that TSA selfie story! 💕👏👍🤳

[@Dev-fo7oi]

The longer he sits there, the more uncomfortable he makes Jay

[@chriskay1449]

LOL Jay doesn't care. Jay lives in your head rent free. Coco's sheep still bitter.

[@bill-fk7tl]

A plus comment

[@jdharshman5802]

this wins

[@trevorhorn7312]

Dis comment good 😏😂

[@adamplentl5588]

Jay doesn't feel.

[@marcj3846]

Conan looks really excited, I’ve never seen him talk this much over other people tho being the usual respectful guy that he is, still loved this!

[@ohmygonzalez]

Conan really showed another host on his own show that there’s levels to this.

[@StewChicken42]

Conan is INDEED, LITERALLY, *I C O N I C !!* Can't wait to see him travel the World. The best US Ambassador, no doubt. Check his handling of the real life situation in Haiti when people were LESS THAN ENTHUSED he was there 😉 #LEGEND

[@tomer_stern]

That selfie story was hillarious. Plus, Conan is certainly bigger than the tonight show. Love him.

[@swavzielin]

Conan has so much energy, totally overwhelms Jimmy

[@parlamedia]

Blessed to have had Conan be the host when I was young. Iconic dude and haven't watched any talks shows after he left the scene.
