Last Tonight Show Tonight

Tonight's the night. It's the last "Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" ever. Not only will this particular show be gone forever but according to reports we won't see any Conan talk show until September. Ouch.

He's going out with style: tonight's guests are Tom Hanks and Will Ferrell with musical guest Neil Young.

Things are moving too fast at this point so I figure I'll save some stuff to post during the lull after it's gone. For now, here's the most expensive comedy character ever introduced on a talk show.


Edit: I just was watching the episode on hulu, just as Conan is about to introduce the new character, the video cuts to a commercial and when it comes back, the segment is over. Apparently they're not going to pay the money to make it available online.

  1. I read that the entire point of playing "Satisfaction" was that Conan KNEW they couldn't get the rights to it so that NBC would have to pull it or risk having to pay huge cashola.

  2. Well, the point of the sketch was to "spend" insane amounts of money and "Satisfaction" helped to that. I don't think Conan would care what happens with the online version.
