QUOTE (3E8 @ Jan 18, 2010 -> 10:52 PM) I don't think Conan's next gig should necessarily be a talk show. His interviewing skills are still not so great. He's witty enough that he can make interviews funny with the right guests. I always thought his 'on location' bits were the best, like the old time baseball, a recent one where he worked at Best Buy, and of course when he went to Finland. A show maybe not airing every night where he would get to focus more on his writing and creativity rather than preparing for interviews might suit him better Conan's an excellent interviewer he makes me laugh during the interviews, something that Leno can't quite do.

QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Jan 18, 2010 -> 11:01 AM) Ha I heard it like 40 times this weekend so it started to get really annoying haha

I was drunk and took a slight bash against ISU a little too hard, we suck this year and I've realized that. Sorry guys and heads.

QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Jan 17, 2010 -> 11:08 PM) Tik Tok No.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 18, 2010 -> 03:02 AM) Wow, Drake, a team that Iowa State positively destroyed in Des Moines. Wow ISU is sooooo good so much better then my ISU.....your in the big 12, and my ISU would probably beat yours like 50% of the time. That's saying something.

I love losing to Drake. Seriously what the f*** was that.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 17, 2010 -> 06:07 PM) I really wish there was a video of the underwater fight. The way they explained it, one whale took that shark out, and they collided and went down, and the killer whale came up with the shark in its mouth. Killer Whales are no joke, they are very intelligent predators In one of the videos they explained exactly what happened. The whale slammed into the shark and then spun it upside down and bit it, because I guess Sharks become completely like paralyzed when upside down so the shark eventually suffocated in the whales mouth.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jan 17, 2010 -> 11:57 AM) Seriously? Because there's nothing else going on that matters. If it helps I believe the group organizing this on facebook have alerted the red cross to all the locations and they will be there collecting money for Haiti.

I forgot to type the word not in my sentence guys sorry

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 15, 2010 -> 05:33 PM) Then why does everyone turn it down? ND has had to bring in their 4th or 5th choice both of the last two times the spot opened up. Kelly was the only man ND offered the job to.

Looks like NBC has agreed to pay Conan 30 million dollars, and also there is a non-compete clause so Conan can do whatever he wants.

Conan's monologue last night might possible be his greatest ever. Conan always seems to come through and be his funniest in hard times like this and the writers strike.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 15, 2010 -> 03:24 PM) What does that have to do with anything? The staff of writers still wrote the vast majority of the series. So they were given a framework? That's what would happen in any subsequent show (i.e., they have the framework of what's already been revealed about the island/it's people/whatever). They're the ones with the knowledge/skills to continue on within the world that the Lost creatores have created. This may have been "darlton's" story, but that doesn't mean someone else can't create a seperate one. Those people have no idea what the island means, or anything. Only Damon and Carlton do so basically it be like you guys watching what I think is Lost, I don't want to watch other peoples opinions on Lost, I want to watch the two people who have worked on Lost the longest opinion on the show. Any spinoff is going to take away from what I believe to be one of the greatest shows ever, and will end up killing this great series. It wouldn't work as good as Star Trek or other shows do because those shows are stories based off a concept where as lost is a show where the concept is the story.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 15, 2010 -> 12:05 PM) There are tons of writers on the show. Yes, Cuse and Lindeloff have the final say, but I think some other people could take the reins and do just fine. Here's an interesting read on what could have been for the series: http://scifiwire.com/2010/01/20-crazy-things-that-near.php I'm pretty sure the people who write the episodes that darlton doesn't are told how the episode needs to start, what majors things happen, and how it ends. So basically the only two people on the planet who have any idea whats happening with that show are darlton.

If darlton isn't involved in the Lost spinoff's or what not then I'm not going to watch I don't think. They created this show and I don't want to watch something that people who had nothing to do with Lost before wrote, because it would just be their take.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 14, 2010 -> 02:13 PM) It's his last week at the 10:35pm slot. Not done with NBC...yet. Simmons just recorded a podcast with TV critic Alan Sepinwall about this. Should be sweet. What else would he do if he is refusing to move to the 12:05 slot?

Jeff Zucker is supposedly threatening Conan to take the midnight slot or he will keep him off the air for the next 3.5 years.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jan 11, 2010 -> 07:34 PM) yeah me too, at least the last couple will be after school is out. Except you probably watch it with friends at school..... sucks for you. I got friends at home I can watch the finale with. I'll survive It's a lab that I just found only meets 8 times and meets two times before Lost. So I'll be able to see a few here .

I wonder if this all ends up helping Conan in the end, I'd expect some people who never watched him are tuning in to see what he says and maybe will follow him wherever he goes. Plus the press has been pro conan, and he is going to come out of this looking like a saint I think and Leno wont.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jan 13, 2010 -> 11:53 AM) I think they are letting it ride until the Winter Olympics. I honestly can't see how they can allow themselves to get torn apart like that night after night until February. They're going to have to pull him eventually and run reruns or something.

I can't believe NBC is going to continue to air Conan after the last few nights. Last night was hysterical. He tore apart NBC.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 07:27 PM) Conan's monologues are probably going to be classic until he goes off the air. The one last night was outstanding. Leno and Letterman both suck it is a shame Conan gets screwed but at least he is still getting paid. I just watched it, so much jabs at NBC I couldn't stop laughing.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 07:33 PM) Even though I think Letterman sucks, I really hope he beats Leno in the ratings when Leno returns to doing The Tonight Show. It would be hilarious and typical of NBC's f ups as a network. I really hope Conan beats Leno's ratings personally. I'm hoping Fox allows him to use the masturbating bear and stuff at 10. Assuming he goes there which looks like is going to happen.
