Good riddance. The Tonight Show has blown goats since Conan took over.
Well said.
that statement shows a guy whose head is screwed-on remarkably straight for a showbiz type
Lots of people grew up watching Carson. I did. Carson was the King of Late Night TV. You ain’t worthy enough to walk in his shoes let alone sit in his chair you unfunny sap.
One has to laugh at Jeff Zucker who initiated this transition from Jay Leno to Conan O’Brien with the specific intent of avoiding the Jay Vs. Dave war of the early 90s. Now he has Jay Vs. Conan and both Vs. NBC. Good work, Zucker!
It’s a good letter, and it sure makes NBC look bad, which is fine with me.
I haven’t really watched the Tonight Show since Johnny Carson left, and I didn’t watch it much then, either. So, I don’t know which of these guys is worse, Leno or Conan. I presume they must both be pretty bad, or they wouldn’t be on NBC.
So, which of them should we be cheering for—not that it matters, but just curious.
Conan showed real class here. If Leno had an ounce of integrity he would be the one to fall on the sword....but he has no class.
As soon as Comcast takes full control of NBC there’s going to be execs flying like bowling pins in the national championships. Jeff Zucker “the genius” is responsible for this mess and he needs to go away. He took a highly successful show and moved it earlier and made it terrible not to mention what he did to the affiliates. Maybe they should drug test this guy when he comes to work everyday. Maybe Obama will hire him, he’s the kind of idiot the Prez likes. Change that makes no sense.
Have a great day and, for the record, I am truly sorry about my hair; it’s always been that way.LOL
Yours,
Conan
Conan is a worthless talent with no other outlet to showcase his worthless worth but there....he'll take what he's offered and like it....just blustering for a bigger paycheck, that's all...
I always liked Conan. His performance was hilarious. I advise anyone to watch it on youtube, he was pulling some punches towards NBC. He isn’t always funny, and I knew this move would fail, but that is mostly due to NBC.
Don't let the door hit you in the @ss on your way out.
In times like these, human beings are hardly in the position to say "do as I say, or else I am gone."
What an idiot and a jerk.
Maybe he can get a job selling hot dogs on the side of the street.

HELL NO! Conan O’Brien Refusing To Delay ‘Tonight Show’; What Does NBC Do Now?
Never really cared for any of them since Johnny, but, this includes a very classy letter from Conan. He gets it.
I, for one, really enjoyed Conan’s style of comedy.
(He also gave us Triumph the Insult Comic Dog)
I hope he lands on FOX and establishes a new night time juggernaut.
It seems like Conan has everything but talent! I had to sit through a couple of his shows and never could figure out why anyone thinks he is funny.
I liked Conan, but I am probably not as old and as uptight as some others.
