Conan the Comedian or Conan the Barbarian?
Written by admin on January 16, 2010 – 11:40 pm -USA Today continues coverage of Conan’s talks with NBC….”Settlement talks continued Saturday on a deal that would let O’Brien leave NBC and restore Leno to the 11:35 p.m. time slot…” Wow. If I were Conan the Comedian I would be colossally p.o.’d that Jay Leno agrees to retire…Then decides he’s stoked for prime time…Then bombs…Then wants to take back the spot that had been promised to Conan…FOR YEARS??? Talk about getting slapped around by the networks. Are you a woman or a warrior Conan? C’mon! Show us what you’re made of!
I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that Conan is funnier than Jay. You know its true! He’s just got that goofy charm going on that says “One more laugh before dream-time.” I chuckle at USA Today’s description, “Settlement talks…” Before this one is finished we’re gonna have to bring Jimmy Carter in to help talk everybody down. Would the Carter Center pitch in? I hope not. I want to see Conan go head to head with Jay just to see who wins out on the ratings boards.
