We’re Team Conan!

It’s not hard to be the class act when you’re being compared to Jay Leno and desperate NBC executives, but Conan has been amazingly mature and classy.  (And also hilarious, if you’ve seen any of his recent monologues.)  And the thing is, what Carson was to Dave’s generation, and Dave was to Conan’s generation, Conan is to a whole new generation.  He’s bigger than late night.  In the end, we don’t remember Tonight or The Late Show; we remember Johnny and Dave.  And whether he’s hosting Late Night, Tonight, or a yet-to-be-announced show on a better network, it’s really going to be The Conan O’Brien Show. He doesn’t need the famous Burbank studio, or the title.  In the end, Conan’s going to be a historic host, regardless of the title of the show.  He does a brilliant show, he’s well-respected in the industry, loved by other comedians, and a genuine class act.  And that’s why I’m on Team Conan.
