John's a great storyteller

he wouldn't be a Director if he wasn't haha

no wonder he is a such a good and succesfull screenwriter. amazing

So many of Conan's former interns have gone on to do great things. Says a lot about the excellent environment(s) on Conan's shows.

And the connections they make in show biz. Conan is probably also an amazing teacher, the man is without a doubt the greatest talk show host of all time

The way they feed off each other no matter how off the wall the joke starts to get. It's like when two, talented musicians lock into one another. They become more than the sum of their parts.

John's graphic narration is a movie by itself!

[@robinheil]

I'm just so glad Team Coco is able to share their old Late Night content. If it was controlled by NBC none of it would see the light of day. Just look at how they treat the Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien like it never existed.

[@Kp-pk9nl]

Damn straight

Conan and Leno and Carson are the best ever

that lawn dart story, gawddamn! hahahaha "always remember"

[@hsteeves]

This is my favourite interview ever.

[@negativespace261]

Subtle detail: John mentions the name of the girl who watched the show and recognized him - *not* the girl who completely violated his space and did something indefensible. It’s clear he recognized that this girl Sarah was just nervous about meeting a celeb who treated him with respect, in contrast to this other person.

[@emercycrite]

John Krasinski is So. Damned. Hot.

[@SIBIRIAKcom]

I always love to follow how his imagination's running "miles an hour". He basically just wrote a short script on a spot.... ope, wait, I stand corrected, two short scripts.

[@soroush9142]

So John is as good as Jim in getting gifts for people he cares about

[@gubberfuck]

"oh so you do bleed? thats weird."

I wasn't prepared for how funny this interview was. I almost laughed myself inside out.

His fan story makes me think he met Aubrey Plaza and her friend (the fan). I can see her behaving just like the disinterested friend.

Honestly, I can relate to John about it being rough having only brothers because out of four kids including me I'm the youngest out of all of us and I threw the second oldest brother which his name is Jr because I thought he hit a girl so I ran over to him and threw him 10 feet and this was when I was 6 and I was the smallest but now I'm the second tallest. And it is a true story honest to God.
