When Conan O'Brien debuted as host of Late Night on September 13, 1993, I was there for all of it. I loved Saturday Night Live and The Simpsons and David Letterman and all of a sudden it was all coming together. I tuned in that night, and Late Night with
When Late Night with Conan O'Brien debuted in '93, I was instantly smitten. I watched every night and laughed my ass off. Those early years at 12:30 were magic. No wonder... check out this 1993 pic of Conan O’Brien with his writers for Late Night with Conan O’
In February of 2004, Conan O'Brien brought Late Night to Toronto. I know because I was there. While in Toronto, he had Scott Thompson from Kids in the Hall fame give him a tour.
Conan O'Brien's birthday was on Monday. He performed in Seattle. Eddie Vedder played him a little song.

Last night, Conan O'Brien hosted his last Tonight Show. I'm with Coco, and not just because I attended the taping of his show. I like that guy for a whole bunch of reasons. In the clip below from Conan's last show, he teams up with Will Ferrell, Beck, Ben Harper,
I like Howard Stern. I also like Conan O'Brien. I really like this clip from December 14, 2006, in which Howard Stern warns Conan about Jay Leno and The Tonight Show. [via @JimRichardsShow]
There's a whole bunch of chatter about Jay Leno's 10pm show getting chopped and Leno going back to 11:30 once the Olympics are over. That slot currently belongs to Conan O'Brien. I'm not sure what that move would mean for Conan. Here's something I wrote six years ago about
I'm PVRing The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. I watched the first show on Wednesday night and was taken back to simpler times. There was a time when I wouldn't miss Late Night With Conan O'Brien, and I even saw the show taped at the Elgin Theatre. It was great
It happened. I suspected as much. Norm MacDonald will be forever linked with that damn beaver. Reading the Globe & Mail this morning, here's their description of Norm. NORM MACDONALD He's the muttering comedic actor and the voice of Bell Mobility's Frank the Beaver April 17 and 18. Yuk Yuk's,
Andy Richter and Conan O'Brien will be back together again on the Tonight Show. It's been a while since I've been up late enough to watch Conan O'Brien's talk show, but there was a time I wouldn't miss it. Here's something I wrote six years ago. I have nothing but
Late Night With Conan O'Brien Bumper Art - I've always been a fan of Conan, tuning in nightly when he first scored his late night gig. I've always loved the bumpers they'd show coming out of commercial breaks, and this gallery has 17 pages of them, capped from a high
The good news: NBC chose the 50th anniversary of the "Tonight" show tonight to announce that Jay Leno will be succeeded by "Late Night" host Conan O'Brien. The bad news: The very unfunny Jay Leno will not step down until 2009.
It seems like just yesterday all of Canada was in a huff about Triumph the Comic Insult Dog's appearance on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Triumph did what he does and roasted French-Canadians in his typical blunt and vulgar fashion. I attended the taping of this infamous episode, and was
I've been keeping the ticket stubs from concerts and sporting events I've attended over the years. I don't get to many these days, but when I do I post a scan of the ticket stub in Ticket Stubs. I just added the stub from the taping of Late Night with
I'm back! I promised I'd share all the details from my visit this afternoon to the Late Night with Conan O'Brien taping here in Toronto, and here it is. I warn you, it's a long one. The Wait I joined the line up to get into the Elgin Theatre at
I'm a day behind when it comes to actually watching Late Night with Conan O'Brien during the show's stay here in Toronto. I can't make it to 01:30 anymore. I need more than the 4.5 hours of sleep that would allow me. Instead, I've been taping the shows
As regular readers know, I'm going to watch Conan O'Brien tape his Late Night talk show here in Toronto with my brother Steve. We're going to Thursday's show and I'm a little concerned. Listening to CFNY Edge 102 this morning, whose studio is across the street from the Elgin Theatre,
"Listen, I may have lost my freakishly long legs in the war of 2012, but I have one thing you'll never have: a soul. And freckles." - Conan O'Brien on Futurama
Last week I wrote about the fact my brother Steve scored two tickets to see Conan O'Brien tape his Late Night talk show here in Toronto. Guess who's getting the second ticket? Yours truly. I think this will be a very cool experience. I'm going to Thursday's taping and I'll
As I've written previously, Conan O'Brien is bringing his talk show to my fair city for four shows in February. Those who wanted tickets were invited to send an email to NBC and winners were randomly selected. I entered but didn't luck out in the draw. My brother Steve did
Howard Stern recently turned the big 5-0. This morning they replayed an appearance from his birthday show by Triumph the Comic Insult Dog. It was pretty damn funny. I've seen and heard bits and pieces of Triumph the Comic Insult Dog on Conan, the MTV Video Awards and his latest
Have you heard the news? Conan O'Brien is bringing his Late Night talk show to Toronto for a week in February. I have nothing but positive feelings about Conan O'Brien. I knew him first as a writer and producer of some of the funniest Simpsons episodes ever. He wrote Homer
