The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien
 
So who watched the first show?

I thought it was great. It was so great seeing him on TV once again. Can't wait for #2.

I thought it was pretty funny, too. It felt "right" to me.

Peanut 06-02-2009 12:44 PM

Yeah, it was awesome. I couldn't have asked for better.

Yep. Sure, there were jitters and re-settling in a new format, but it was so warm and familiar. It just felt right. Having Andy back is like a homecoming. Just seeing the Max Weinberg 7 intact made my freaking day. Everybody's there, but you can tell it just feels like a heavily upgraded version of the classic format. Almost like a welcome home party. Just made me smile. It'll make me smile even bigger after E3 as I'll be in the audience Friday (wearing a goofy brown mesh-top hat and purple Tulsa logo shirt).

I've really been having a hard time in life lately, and Conan not being there to cheer me up has been just another downer. Having the gang back really brought my spirits up last night.

If anyone watched Leno's last show Conan was on and he showed a clip of him conducting a focus group on his old show. He was dressed in a hilarious disguise and the people in the group were old. The skit is playing on the doubts some have had of him moving to 11:30 with the older audiences. I was really looking forward to this. I hope it's on tonight!

I caught some of the recaps, its great to have Conan back on plus even earlier!

I loved the cross country opening gag as well as him taking over the Universal Studios tour lot.

It's nice to see Andy Richter back on Conan's side once again. Andy's had so many prime time series failures. The one that stood out was Quintuplets which featured Ryan Pinkston & his silly catch phrase ("You likey?").

I'll always go to bed right after his monologue (unless there's some interesting guests are on).

Yeah... It was cool to see Andy back but it was weird that they renamed the band from The Max Weinberg 7 to The Tonight Show Band....

Haha, my friend Matt was in the audience tonight. You could see him on the right when Green Day ran into the audience. I'll be in there Friday.

The new show ROCKS. I couldn't ask for better late night TV. :tthumbsu:

Newton Gimmick 06-03-2009 02:59 AM

Awesomeness all around. It's nice for the Tonight show to be funny and have a talented comedian on it. After 17 years of Leno I almost forgot what that was like.

GK Punk 06-03-2009 03:26 AM

The show was awesome, and it was ****ing amazing to see Pearl Jam on a late night show like this. I missed tonight's, but I'll catch it later.

Newton Gimmick 06-03-2009 05:09 AM

The second show as great. Even better than the first. Probably the best single episode of the Tonight Show since Carson left. Any of the kinks that were in the first show were worked out.

ThirdMarioBro 06-03-2009 08:16 PM

Yep. Just shows what seasoned professionals they are now.

Loved the LaBamba cutaway. Feels like home again.

Mr. Snackpants 06-03-2009 11:04 PM

The Year 3000 was pure win.

I hope he uses Max more in the future. Now that Andy is back he doesn't get as much camera. I always loved Conan and Max interactions. It's still early though, so yeah....

I liked that it was changed from In The Year 2000 to the year 3000. This time change is good. And I've said it once and I'll say it again.... good to have Andy back. :D

PAAATE 06-04-2009 03:33 AM

The two first show have been as good as expected, maybe better :D

It's only a pity they won't air it here in Sweden

Kanal 9 which aired Leno's Tonight Show replaced it with The Daily Show

and TV4+ who used to show Conan when he did Late Night replaced it with... reruns of Law and Order!??!? Wtf...

Whatever, CoCo does a great job as usual :D
