Conan, Thanks for the Memories!

If you stayed up late last night to see the last episode of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, you know that it is the end of something truly special that ran for a miraculous 16 seasons. Conan's moving from New York out to L.A. to take over for Jay Leno on The Tonight Show starting in June while Jimmy Fallon takes over the Late Night slot. I'll miss all the self deprecation and silly characters (Pale Force, Horny Manatee). Due to the late night time slot and true fans, the show was able to do what it wanted and we loved it for that. Moving to The Tonight Show we'll lose some of that character as it's moving to an earlier time slot and thus will most likely be more reserved. So here's to Conan, thanks for all the memories! We look forward to success in L.A., even though it won't be the same.

Ok, video blitz - some of Conan's parting videos from this week as well as some of my favs from the show over the years.
