VIDEO: Conan O’Brien’s Return to Late Night Gets Taiwanese Cartoon Tribute

Conan' Premiere Beats Leno, Letterman

Quote

Conan O'Brien is enjoying a sweet, sweet victory in the ratings.
The TBS premiere of Conan has soundly beaten NBC's Tonight Show with Jay Leno on Monday night.
Conan drew 4.2 million viewers, which is very impressive. What's more: 3.3 million of them were adults 18-49.
By comparison Tonight had 3.5 million viewers, with only 950,000 of his audience in the demo.
Late Show with David Letterman had 3.4 million and 1.3 million.

O'Brien also trounced Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, as expected (see chart below).
As rivals are sure to point out, the series premiere of a new late-night program is almost always victorious, people want to chell out the new show. O'Brien's Tonight on NBC dropped more than 50% from his premiere within a week. It's still an accomplishment, however, anytime a cable show beats broadcast.

'Conan' gives audience the moon in cable debut

So far this show is pretty much exactly like it was during his run as Late Night and the Tonight Show.

And thanks to this show I now know what a Tokyo Sandblaster is....I wish I didn't, but I do.

B E C K · « **Reply #4 on:** Nov 11, 2010, 02:00:50 PM »

I have no idea what that is.

Fiero · « **Reply #5 on:** Nov 11, 2010, 03:07:38 PM »

Google brought back to many different results.

Rama · « **Reply #6 on:** Nov 11, 2010, 03:18:37 PM »

Well if what I found is true...what is is when someone with diarrhea farts in your fact. The Tokyo comes the fact that your eyes squint like an Asian when you get hit with shit particles.

And if that it is really what it is, I can't believe the stuff some people are able to talk other people into letting them do.

I am not correcting you this time, I sincerely find this mistake hilarious. I am imagining a man stating something very important, and a young woman running up and making a mess of his podium.

Rama · « **Reply #8 on:** Nov 11, 2010, 06:40:58 PM »

Yeah, Face...sorry.

I probably was thinking about if what I had read was true, IE: fact. So that slipped in there in because of it.

Fiero · « **Reply #9 on:** Nov 11, 2010, 07:35:15 PM »

You know what the problem with me correcting you is? I look like a jackass. I just want you t know, it's because I care.

blanktoe · « **Reply #10 on:** Nov 11, 2010, 08:56:38 PM »

so...is the show worth watching?

Derrick · « **Reply #11 on:** Nov 11, 2010, 10:32:05 PM »

I enjoy it.

That's because you are. Don't fight it. You can't help it. You were born that way. Don't let anyone tell you different.

And yeah I like it too. It's really good. But then I liked this work on the Late Show and The Tonight Show.

I thought Thursday's episode was especially delightful.

I pictured you drinking tea out of fine china with a raised pinky when I read that.

Me and Kary watch football with fine tea out of Imported Japanese stoneware.

That is quite possibly the most elaborate sex metaphor I have ever encountered.

B E C K · « **Reply #17 on:** Nov 12, 2010, 11:18:49 PM »

If that's the case, I have no idea what they're doing.

Rama · « **Reply #18 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 12:08:03 AM »

It sounds complicated.

Rama · « **Reply #19 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 12:09:44 AM »

And boooo...no Conan on Friday? What the Fuck? I guess Lopez tonight doesn't run on Friday either, but I didn't know that cause I wouldn't watch that shit if you paid me.....

Well maybe if you paid me, but only cause I need the money.

B E C K · « **Reply #20 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 01:39:39 AM »

Being saved one day of Lopez Tonight should cancel out the loss of one less Conan a week.

Rama · « **Reply #21 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 02:18:48 AM »

It would if I ever stuck around to watch it, which I never do. I mean he's thanking the musical guest and I'm already looking for the remote.

B E C K · « **Reply #22 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 03:18:35 AM »

Yet another Lopez who inexplicably has a thriving career.

joe · « **Reply #23 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 03:34:14 AM »

Hey, they bring that Latin juice that quenches the thirst of the masses. Or something.

¡Ay ay ay!

B E C K · « **Reply #24 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 03:35:54 AM »

1. Move Lopez Tonight to Arizona.
2. Playfully hide all identifying documentation.
3. ???
4. PROFIT

Rama · « **Reply #25 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 03:37:45 AM »

They won't deport Slater, not even in Arizona.

B E C K · « **Reply #26 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 03:38:38 AM »

We won't know until we try.

Rama · « **Reply #27 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 03:41:20 AM »

I'll only go along with the plan if we can get them to take Dustin Diamond too.

joe · « **Reply #28 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 03:57:01 AM »

Is Slater still a thing? Does he still do stuff?

I saw him once back when Conan had his old show, and he was all, "Look at my Latin muscles. You can have Latin muscles like me if you buy my book about Latin muscles."

But I didn't.

B E C K · « **Reply #29 on:** Nov 13, 2010, 03:59:31 AM »

Latin muscles are gay.
