Late Night Staff Solves the Gas Crisis - 4/12/05

[@TheDigitalDecade]

Conan is the ONLY talk show where you know multiple band members names, even the ones that weren’t original members.

[@JoeYatesAlaskanFilms]

I would love gas prices to go down to $3 a gallon 😂

[@counterfeitsaint7479]

I would love if baby boomers actually did retire 15 years ago.

[@bernlin2000]

This show was way more bizarre back then, love it XD

[@Trilaan]

Ah I loved those Max Weinberg "Rimshots are for jokes" jokes.

[@sicfxmusic]

It's not a joke 😇

[@SmugSuspenders]

Those damn elders couldn't keep a straight face :)

[@donzaloog1400]

These are some damn good ideas. *takes notes*

[@Mixboy2105]

When the economy got so bad NBC had to cut the budget for Late Night, Conan had to use the elder sled as his chair

[@avocadomonkey4892]

The best part of Conan is how creatively he engaged his staff and the audience. The perplexing part -- did Kyle ever persuade Conan to save energy for 10 seconds, and is Sona his replacement???

[@jeffw1267]

Boy, those Segways flamed out fast. I haven't seen one since the last time I was at the mall.

[@TheTarrMan]

Rimshots are for jokes Conan.

[@JasonL77]

Sometime I forget how dark this show got. I love it, but damn, it was dark.

[@JayGamerShow]

Then Kyle was replaced with Sona ^^

[@AnssiRai]

That old woman at 03:00 is like the female counterpart lookalike of Joel the announcer, even the joke is similar.

[@SniffyPoo]

she was a regular on the show skits

[@cleverusername9369]

Jeremy Clarkson: "JEEEEZUS IS HERE! "

[@noelwhittington6457]

man i miss conan

[@no127]

I must say that other than the last one, which was typical silly comedy, everything else was hilarious!

[@ARedGinger]

Elder sledge is a cool name for something.

[@continentalrcinglg]

Huh. Conan's assistant Kyle went on to become Joe, the bartender who hates Conan.

[@johnrussellpelt9091]

The first bit with Jerry was very clever and smart.... usually he plays a dumb and annoying character like the bad chant guy in the audience.

[@johnnybikesalot]

Don't worry about gas prices, we'll just destroy the whole economy in a few years with sub prime mortgages, that'lll take care of gas prices.

[@mediocreman2]

I wish. Much worse than that now, unfortunately.

[@SmugSuspenders]

Who's the guy playing Kyle? He's not one of the Brians, but he looks very familiar.

[@perryryan1618]

That's Kevin Dorff, he was another writer on the show that performed pretty often. Not as often as the Brians, though.

[@SmugSuspenders]

Perry Ryan Thanks! I love Conan buffs :) Take care!

[@bluelouboyle_]

PutinWithAnimals he was in the office episode dunder mifflin infinity when michael drives the car into the lake. he's the lawyer or whatever michael and dwight go back to get the chocolate turtles from after taking them there. he also played the coked up werewolf, and the bartender at joe's in conan sketches amongst others.

[@DC.....]

The old lady playing the book keeper was hilarious on the show what is her name

[@TimThomason]

@@DC..... Lee Kheel

[@JoeyMartz]

3.00 a gallon..... if only....

[@redgeneral5792]

And now we have negative oil :D

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

With a $.20 discount, paid $1.66 per gallon tonight (2019)! :D

[@TimThomason]

I've got bad news to give you from the future.

[@DC.....]

What is the book keepers real name she was hilarious during her run on the show

[@SniffyPoo]

Lee Kheel. She was in lots of skits

[@Nin9211]

Stupid? Yes ..funny? Yes

[@rustyshackleford3884]

Hmmm…this didn’t age well

[@jeffbeharry1002]

this is why Conan did not last at tonight show

[@Jamescrab21]

Are you sure it didn't have something to do with Leno?

[@jeffbeharry1002]

+Jamescrab in a way it did cuz leno was funnier

[@raisehell1996]

+Jeff Beharry Your opinion, not many share that opinion though. It's not like Leno was better at his 10 pm slot...

[@jeffbeharry1002]

+raisehell1996 many people don't hold the opinion because they feel that jay wronged conan. they fail to realize that conan and NBC are the ones who got jay fired first. 10 o'clock is a bad time slot for any talk show. Fact is jay dominated the ratings as tonight show host. Conan would not have made it even if jay wasnt in the picture. simply because his humor was not as good. and I am a conan fan.

[@raisehell1996]

+Jeff Beharry Nah I don't think so. Again, it's your opinion and I get what you are saying, but it was a shitty situation all around. I mean for Conan to do The Tonight Show after Jay Leno has done his own talk show with his own guests an hour earlier, was a tough task for anyone to master. It's like Jay Leno having to go on after Johnny Carson in 1992. He would have failed too. But he didn't since they had great programming on NBC at the time of his peak for a long period of time (Seinfeld, E.R, Friends etc.) so that Leno and Conan could develop their fanbase for their individual time slot, therefor Leno gained his viewers back when he returned on his initial time slot. Also, all the momentum and ads for the new change of late night programming, NBC primarily focused on Leno's new show while downplaying Conan's role as new host of the Tonight Show which was a dick move on NBC's part and partially on Leno's behalf too, since he could have done the same type of show either daytimes or on another network. And if Leno had a problem with agreeing on leaving The Tonight Show in 2004, he had all the power in the world to decline, but he didn't since he is a company man through and through and that's where the hate for Leno comes from. He still is one of the best stand-up comics there ever was, no doubt about that. Well, thats just my opinion.
