1/21/2010 3:56:05 PM

^jay sucked at 10, theyre giving his ll:30 spot back to him, conan said fuck that im not moving to a later time so hes walking while in the meanwhile all of yjem, (leno, conan, letterman) have been taking shots at nbc and each other. conans show has pretty much turned into a free for all since he no longer gives a shit

NBC=nothing but cunts

they just used their idiot brains to decide that jay leno should be back at 1130, and conan would not stand for anything but the tonight show at 1130, so theyre buyin out his contract and he's peacin out, but part of the agreement is he cant do another tv show for 8 months or something ridiculous like that


as far as the bugatti veyron mouse, coco was just trying to say fuck you to nbc by having ultra expensive gags, so he got a ~$1.8million car (rented im sure) and dressed it like a mouse, then bought the rights to play "satisfaction" on air and replay it on the web

skit cost 1.5 mil

1/21/2010 3:59:43 PM

haha any reason for the mouse garb or was it basically "look at us wasting your stupid money for no reason HAR HAR HAR"

1/21/2010 4:02:26 PM

no reason, it was just a "fuck you"

NBC Debacle:

In 2004, NBC announced that in 2009, Conan O'Brien would be receiving the "Tonight Show" and Jay Leno fully endorsed the idea.

In 2009, Conan did indeed move from "Late Night" to the "Tonight Show", while Jay Leno was given a 5-day 10 pm slot on NBC, which would normally go to a drama, but comedies are much cheaper to produce.

On January 7th, 2010, NBC announced that Leno would be moving from 10 pm to 11:35 pm and both the "Tonight Show" and "Late Night" would be pushed back by a half-hour (12:05 am and 1:05 am, respectively). This was due to the abysmal ratings of Leno's show, which was in turn causing mayhem for local news networks.

Conan absolutely hated this idea, going on to say his show was only given eight months to find an audience and it wasn't fair to Jimmy Fallon. For the better part of the last two weeks, all late night hosts have poked fun at this huge disaster.

Conan will be leaving the "Tonight Show" tomorrow night and taking $33 million with him.

just watched the clip, NICE

i keep meaning to watch it this week but i never do, have to watch tonight

1/21/2010 4:06:05 PM

actually its $45 million, but he is giving $22 million to his staff.

1/21/2010 4:48:53 PM

"Satisfaction" is much more expensive than the car

1/21/2010 4:55:41 PM

ACTUALLY

renting the veyron and buying song rights cost about $30

that car-sized mouse costume cost $1,499,970
