    Cool, by why?

    This is not to be antagonistic, just....why? Is it the release of NBA Live?

    Yeah I'd bet that's the main reason.

    Has to be.

    And, wow, "Comedy God" Conan O'Brien? LOL. Conan is my favorite, grew up with him on TV... but damn.

    They put most of their interviews up on the Conan site, so it should be available.

    I had to include that line because it actually made me laugh out loud, Holdahl might be Conan's biggest fan.

    When he was on late night NBC, he was a freaking genius... on TBS... not as much. Still funny as hell, but his sketches are subpar in comparison (For the record, whenever Conan does a remote, I literally cry from laughing. He is the best at it, period.)

    Jimmy Fallon sucked, to me, when he was on late night NBC... but now on the Tonight Show, he's really good. His sketches and guest interactions are top notch. I have really grown to like him.

    I agree with all that, I used to love Conan but now Fallon is probably my second choice. But Craig Ferguson has always been my favorite and I'm actually really sad that he's leaving on December 19th. If anyone here is a fan of his I suggest you watch his show sometime before it's gone! His recent shows have been extra hilarious because as he says "he's got nothing left to lose."

    Don't forget that Conan was a writer for The Simpson's during their golden years. So yeah, he may just be a "Comedy God".

    hmmm...Is it the 21st or 23rd? LoL. It says for Thursday (10/23) guests include Neil Patrick Harris and Kisza. For Tuesday (10/21) it's Dana Carvey and Gary Gulman.

    Of course Lillard should be on Conan. They need several guests a week and a real superstar (Lillard) is in town. He'll talk about his game winner against Houston and promote the upcoming NBA season. Makes sense to me.

    I'm not a huge fan of Conan but I will watch because of Lillard.

    No one is a great fan of you, but we still come here to find out when the Mrs is free.

    Also his signature shoe just came out, the season is about to start and he's already going to be in the area. Just makes sense all around. I don't have cable though :sigh:
