This was a decent follow-up to David Letterman's version of Late Night. Conan was under a lot of pressure as an unknown following a legend in a high-pressure talk-show slot and behind not just one but several eight balls, and he did a credible job and held his own in Late Night, and he made it his own. I think he was reasonably funny and several of his skits were good, especially "In the Year 2000" and "Triumph the Insult Comic Dog." Those were my favorites. He suffered a loss when Andy Richter left but still managed to survive. It was decent entertainment. It shows how well he handled pressure and that he can be a survivor;however, he was not as funny as his predescessors.** 1/2 out of ****

I am going to try something different today. I am going to try not to spoil anything, but I am putting SPOILERS on just in case.SPOILERSI have recently become a fan of late night talk-shows. You know, the Tonight Show With Jay Leno, and all of those. Well, this happens to be the best late night talk-show out there. It is amazingly funny, always fun, and how could you not love the Evil Puppy? All the skits are great.Yeah, this is better than the Tonight Show, but only by a little bit. Like all late night talk shows the structure of this is basically interviewing celebrities, but there are some unique twists here and there, such as Celebrity Survey, and If They Mated. Conan is extremely funny and gets a bit strange at times, but he is perfect like that.Overall, this is a great late night talk show, and if you can stay up late enough, definitely catch and watch this after the Tonight Show.Anyway...A must-see for anyone who loves comedy or talk shows. This is definitely the best of the best.10/10 Recommended Shows: The Tonight Show.

I love this show. It's not as high brow as say the Today Show, nor as down to earth as Jay Leno's show, but it sits perfect in the middle.Conan is a very intuitive comedian, which can pulls great lines from nowhere and even leave guests in trouble, if they insist on keeping a straight face.The music is alternative, even obscure at times, but at average good.I liked the show better when he had his sidekick Andy. I think the show now depends way too much on O'Brien, and sometimes fails because of this.Otherwise it's a great show, with great comedy and music.

'Late Night With Conan O'Brien' will put at least a silly smile on your face every time you watch it. Conan gives viewers a good and fun hour to just let loose. With all of the hysterical skits and witty humour, you'll wonder why you didn't watch this show to begin with. Conan O'Brien makes a delightfully wonderful host and can take even the boringest subjects and make it funny for everyone.Granted the show has had its moments of non-funny stupidity, but there's no doubt that you'll be laughing again within the next ten minutes. Not only is this show great for laughs, but it features a wide variety of special guests varying from movie stars, singers, political figures, to some of the weirdest people you will ever meet. Conan has been praised in the past to be equal to or even better than 'The Tonight Show'! And you'll definitely know why when you see it.I, myself, have watched this show for nearly seven years and I can assure that 'Late Night With Conan O'Brien' is late-night TV at its best.
