Conan Regrets Being “Too Intense” About Working At SNL | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend

[@iain.sm.c]

I hope Conan writes an autobiography one day. He's lived such a fascinating life. That Jay Leno burn was fantastic lmao.

Do you think you could ever get Lorne Michaels on the show? He comes up in so many peoples' stories and I'd love to actually see and hear from him.

Hanks looks great. Dude is 68, tanned, lean, and still hungry for in-room laughs. Legend.

[@Deviantial]

Is tanned good? Is the colour of someones skin important? Should someone who isn't tan expose themselves to cancer-causing UV rays to get tan?

[@MatsThyWit]

He actually looks better right now than he did 10 or 15 years ago. He went through a period where he got really doughy. He's probably dropped 30 or more pounds since then, and looks great.

[@thewisefool4049]

Was just thinking that. Presumably on ozempic or similar, I remember he was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes a few years back. Whatever he's doing it seems like it's working.

[@neuvisean1739]

I never tire of old SNL stories

[@billyeveryteen7328]

Robert Smigel had basically the same story about Tom Hanks, where Tom Hanks would stay with the writers during the all-night sessions, which was not only unusual for a host to do, but especially unusual for a host at the level of celebrity of Tom Hanks. Man, what I wouldn't give to be able to be a fly on the wall during a Smigel/Odenkirk/Conan brainstorming session.

Tom Hanks is the perfect example that comedy writing, performing and acting are all separate skills. A lot of comedians only value the first two but comedic acting is its own enormously important skill.
