I saw a conan o brien re-run the other day and it had maybe the funniest sketch/bit i've ever seen on that show.
It was the episode with Uma Thurman as the guest. And right after he interviewed her some shoe tree salesman from the 30s rang a doorbell and came in and said some of the most off the wall stuff i've ever heard.
such as: "Questioning authority! that's a concept as alien to me as sex without weeping"

sounds exactly like something that is only funny when you actually see it.

Haha .. I don't know if I'm making it up or not but I seem to remember that one .. especially if it was indeed a rerun. Funny stuff. Conan always has the most hilarious sketches. but yes, usually only if you're watching them. It's tough to talk about them in retrospect and capture the original fervour.
btw the 10 year anniversary special was fabulous, wasn't it?

It's being used for cheap automatic laughs now, but I still can't help but crack up at that hyper Arnold impersonator.

i think another good one was "Party or Coup D'etat" and it had an african general sitting at his desk and some of his troops standing around and the announcer says "party or coup d'etat?" and the general says "party!" and the announcer goes "yeah, MURDER party!" and all the troops shoot the general to death.

Conan's skits are THE funniest part about his show. Truly hilarious, BUT, Conan himself is not funny. He goes too far. He's the guy that milks the joke for as long as possible. I can see his guests whincing. Leno is by far the best delivery man for a joke, so his stand up is the best part of his show. Letterman is the coolest one outa the bunch, someone you'd like to be like or have a beer with.

Oh god. If you think Conan is good at telling jokes than you're tard. He can write good jokes, but he's so fucking annoying. With his nasaly voice. He just goes on and on and picks out the little details of things and just milks them to death. EVERYNIGHT. Not once in a while. I Love his show. LOVE his skits. None better, but he's fucking annoying and just goes on and on about the dumbest shit in conversation. Fine she said pooty. That's great. Move the fuck on!!! Timing is everything..

He's is a wonderful comedy writer, but a horrible front man. Maybe he's good in an overly geeky way.

I like the guy that does the really long and elaborate football chant to the point that the audience loses interest.
and preparation h raymond!
probably the funniest thing I've seen on the show was when triumph the insult comic dog sang his parody of "I'll be watching you" when he was being sued for slandering the pets.com sock puppet.
the bits with joel the announcer are always good.

I Like the "Uber Hyper Arnold Voice Over Thingy" and I also like when Pender (The bald trumpet player in the Max Weinberg Band) Breaks into song and he starts to scream and turns red... Then Conan Asks him to stop!

"how old were you really?" "26" "how dare you! how can i fantasize about a 26 yr old?!"
