Oh thats a shame.....so is this

spaz

makes me wanna watch his show haha

fuck late night and nbc

going to be an intersting last show

Tonight is the finale, with Tom Hanks and Will Ferrell.

You just know that Ferrell is going to be outrageous.

Great for stories, just not true. Like the car the night before (which was loaned to the show) the horse gag was just that, a gag.

The Stones music 2 nights ago didn't cost much either for a live or tape delay show, re-running it would cost lots, but chances of NBC ever re-running Conan's shows are slim to none.

Its a comedy show- these are jokes.

yep, tonights last show should be interesting lol

Whatever they paid I'm sure it's worth it. There's going to be more people than ever tuning in to watch his last show(s).

i dont blame him tho. I heard they are paying NOT him $40some million, but his staff, so he will probably get like $10 mil or so after all said and done, then after taxes hes looking at $6 million to live off of.

if thats the case i would be pretty pissed off too. werent they were paying Jay Leno i believe $30 million a year to do the show and Conan and his staff get $40-45 mil to walk away?

either way, Conan is still getting stiff IMO. i would of taken a deal with cash up front and then a few mil a year for the next 5 years or so. its not like he can go back to his other gig, so hes going to have to find some new work

please provide articles, links, or any legit news that what conan is doing is not real and that he is NOT blowing the budget!

dang biggest bathroom in the world. piss n' shit everyhere

Looks like Conan is a brainy guy of some kind.

It's still funny

"The Veyron, which Conan claimed cost NBC $1.5 million (in fact, you can spend up about $1.7 million for the 235-mph exotic). In fact, Conan got a deal on the Bugatti:

The car was a loaner -- Petersen Automotive Museum has confirmed it provided the car, so NBC only had to pay whatever expenses were involved. "

"ABC News reports that previously existing agreements allow NBC to “play ‘Satisfaction’ at no additional cost for a live or time-delayed performance.” Since the network has pulled the bit from its online airing of the episode, it looks like NBC is essentially on the hook for nada, nuthin’, a big fat zip. "

Yep, it IS still funny!! NBC seem like dirty players in this whole stink. They deserve 7 months of ripping.

Doesn't really matter if it's true or not, it was still damn funny!

Conan's getting 30m, and his staff is getting 10m.

I wish NBC would just let Leno go. I hope Conan comes back on Fox and blows Leno out of the water.

As Ex-NBC employees (Hubby and I), We hope Conan can screw NBC any way possible.

Man, it's really a shame that tonight is Conan's last show. His shows have been so damn hilariously funny these past 2 weeks, that it's really sad to see it end.

To be replaced by what... the same lame shit that Leno has been doing for almost 2 decades. Leno will never go out of the box, and that's why his show blows.

Watching it now.

Leno has been #1 since he took over the Tonight Show, Conan not even close..Conan lost money for NBC Leno made money...It's just like having a sponsor that does not make you any money why stay with them... Dump them and go with one that makes money.. Unless you like to lose money...:2 cents:

And that changes Leno's act from being boring as hell, how?

But let's not forget, it was Leno's new show that start the shitball rolling downhill. When Leno first started 'The Tonight Show' it took him 2 years to start being #1. Conan wasn't allowed even ½ of that much time to pick up steam.

Conan was never #1 in his old time slot what makes people think he would be able to reach that just by moving him to a different time slot? He is still using the same old tired unfunny jokes as he always did.. Conan was liked by a very unique group. Jay has a much broader appeal.. I never see Conans face on any marque here in Vegas..Jay plays here almost every month and sells out his shows.. I don't see conan doing that..

We just agree to disagree, I don't like Conan and you don't like Jay..:2 cents:

Both are predictable and boring,I think a good Canadian kid like Jim Carey would work better

If Jim Carey ever has a latenight talk show, I'll gouge my eyes out with a rusty spoon.
