With the move of the show to LA, Late Night Producer Jordan Schlansky is/was in the market to buy a house. In the first of these segments he discusses with Conan what he's looking for. In the second, he meets a Realtor and goes looking. There should be more of these but this was it. Perhaps he bought a house, perhaps they just decided to stop. Who knows what will happen now that the show is in complete limbo.
Both are hilarious and feature an increasingly rare phenomenon: Conan hangs out with Jordan and doesn't get drunk.

I've been thinking of this post for a while as it's one of the great highlights of the Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. But now that I started, it seems NBC has deleted all Tonight Show content from
Hulu. Is this a smart television practice? When Johnny Carson "left" the Tonight Show did NBC hire an intern to go around and erase every Johnny Carson tape in the archive so that no one would ever see them again?
I do at least have the clips on my computer. However that does nothing for my blog. It's also nice that clips from
Hulu account for almost the entirety of my blog. I have to rethink the whole thing.
NBC makes free money off of online viewings of its already "bought and paid for" content so they're essentially - as a business, mind you - choosing to not make money. Why didn't NBC leave the videos, collect the money and quickly set fire to it? Because that wouldn't screw over their viewers.
