We’re Team Conan!

A few years back, there was an Emmy tribute to Johnny Carson.  David Letterman, in a rare show of emotion, spoke of Johnny’s influence.  If I recall correctly, Conan was hosting the Emmys, and the next time he took the stage he said something like “Dave talked about how much Johnny Carson meant to him as a young comedian, and I just want to say that for my generation, David Letterman had that same influence on us.”  It was a cool, heartfelt moment where Conan had a minute to address his hero, go off book, and pay tribute.
