Triumph The Insult Comic Dog On Hollywood Squares (2000) Late Night with Conan O'Brien

[@dalesmith1584]

Amen! Everything s too sensitive and feminized now

[@sydhamelin1265]

I think we used to have a better judge of intent - as in we were laughing because of the absurdity,, not WITH the absurdity. At some point the general consensus changed to "any joke ABOUT a subject is endorsement of that subject." All this kind of comedy is behind paywalls now.

[@bonzo713]

I offended by your comment...especially the "Thank you" part.

[@srldwg]

@@bonzo713 😂 This comment is priceless!

[@armancho76]

Syd's right ..I agree with him 100% .. youre going to need a serious incentive to bring this comedy back to the States ...like the "good life" instead of "the struggle"... I mean it wasnt really valued when it was living its highlight in US while it thrives in other countries where people actually value it .instead of considering it to be "criminal element" of society ..know what i mean ?

Of all the late nite shows that have ever been, the most consistently hilarious one was CONAN, thanks in no small part to Robert Smigel's contributions. Thanks for being the greatest, Conan & Team Coco!

[@fretbuzz59]

Smigel's contributions were pretty much the only funny stuff on Late Night w Conan; most of the other stuff was just weird. Letterman was *the* best.

I haven't heard notes like that since my mother was hit by a car. The Lhasa Oprah or Roker Spaniel. 😄

[@dingfeldersmurfalot4560]

I remember when Triumph made his first appearance, at the Westminster dog show. The guest who came after him asked Conan how much he could do that to him, because there was no way anyone was going to look like anything but a let-down after that screamingly funny, raunchy surprise. Long Live Triumph!

[@joshuatxuk]

I remember an episode where triumph was asked the question "in what activity would one 'tie a rope to the poop rail'?" (the answer is sailing) to which he responded "dating Little Richard." Little Richard was in the square next to him and had this expression of absolute shock on his face.

Yes, on the person who mentioned Gilbert Godfrey. Triumph was spectacular. The major networks have to look back and look at what little they have now. And, know Conan was their mistake.

[@Celtchief]

@@mizztery2994 Except there is documented evidence, both anecdotal and recorded to dispute that. Listen to him and Paul Rudd on his podcast, it's them ad-libbing throughout. They even talk about early on avoiding location bits because they are worried he can't ad-lib, and then he goes and has some of the best location scenes in late night, which are all ad-libbing.

[@Celtchief]

@@mizztery2994 I understand, I feel like some comedians don't do it for me, but I think Conan, beyond whether he is funny to any given person or not, is a good man who tries to do the right thing, so I not only think he is funny, but I respect him as a person. Cheers.

If all of you want to see Triumph and Smigel at their best, Google Saturday TV Funhouse. There were only 10(?) episodes made, but watch the full episodes. There's a 2 parter with Triumph in Atlantic City with Robert Goulet (I shit you not). Also, look out for a cartoon called, The Baby, The Immigrant, and The Guy On Mushrooms (2 episodes). Some of the weirdest and most original schtick ever on television. I would have to say that Ren & Stimpy, Peewee's Playhouse, and TV Funhouse, were 3 of the most important shows in the history of television. Groundbreaking, highly creative, and hilarious.
