What I'm Watching - Conan O'Brien

Conan is awesome. If you're old and haven't been able to stay up past 11, now is your chance to check him out. Last night marked his first episode of The Tonight Show, and it was exactly what Conan fans were hoping for. If you were a fan of Jay Leno, be prepared for something completely different.

People watched Jay for the easy joke. "Wow, that economy is tough, right?" The first 5 minutes of Conan's debut was a recorded bit where he ran all the way from NY to LA.



Then he spent another 5 minutes on a bit where he hijacked a tram tour at Universal Studios and took it to the streets of LA. At the end he bought all 200 people on the tram presents from the dollar store. If you like smart comedy, give Conan a shot. He's weird, he's goofy, he's self-deprecating, and he went to Harvard. To give you an idea of what he's capable of, I've got one more clip from Late Night with Conan O'Brien. This is the kind of thing you can expect from Conan if you check in on the Tonight Show from time to time.
