The Most Expensive Comedy Skit(s) Ever

Dear Internet,

With the end of his show imminent, Conan decides to write sketches that aren't so much "funny" as they are crazy expensive in order to waste as much NBC money as possible.

With this idea, Conan presents the most expensive comedy character ever - the Bugatti Veyron Mouse with special "theme song" - the original master recording of "Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones:


Conan O'Brien's Bugatti Veyron Mouse

The theme song means that the video can not be uploaded online because of the copyright licensing issues.

The next night Conan revealed the most expensive comedy skit ever:


This skit only held the record for one day, however, as it was surpassed the next night by this "comedy" sketch:

The Most Expensive Comedy Sketch In The World Ever


I especially got a kick out of Conan's disclaimer to the people on the internet that it was all fake because I had earlier read one of those articles. [Here I planned on linking the exact article but I was unable to re-find it. Any search will turn up similar examples.] Ah, the media. They're supposed to be our eyes and ears but it helps if they have a brain also.

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.
