Team Conan

To be completely honest, I prefer Craig Ferguson these days.* Tonight Show Conan - actually, the Conan of the past few years, apart from the indian summer of brilliance that was the Writer's Strike episodes - was getting to be too stale, too mean to the gays and the fatties, and too safe. He seemed to forget that streak of absurdity that made him famous was what also made him special, and Jay Lenos of the world should go hang. But it's a damn shame how he was treated, and now that he's going for broke and pretty much declaring viciously witty war on NBC, he's must-see TV for me again. Go forth and find your Redwolf Mountain, Coco O'B. I'll see you on the other side.

Conan's statement here, for anyone interested.

*Dispensation, of course, for Stewart-Colbert, who are newspeople, dammit, not just talk-show hosts.
