so i'll be watching conan's final "the tonight show" tonight in sort of a perplexed daze at all that has transpired. i guess nothing in the hollywood world should ever surprise me/us anymore, but after what took place years ago when leno took over (robbed) the show from carson (GRHS), i simply thought the circus had left town. oh no.
i don't want to be completely one-sided. i used to have no use for jay at all. but over the years he has gotten funnier to me. i think he's usually pretty self-deprecating, and he was great in "comedian." but i've always been more of a letterman guy, just more zany, loopy, and ridiculous all around. that being said, i like conan more than them all. i make no bones about it, it's because of his work on "the simpsons." he's hilarious and brilliant and to hear people he worked with on "the simpsons" talk about him...well it's kinda like hearing nuns talk about Jesus. and it rings true. i don't know if anyone in hollywoodland has any sincerity or much integrity, but conan seems to me to come closest. so far no ridiculous affairs or insanity about his life, i guess until now.
i feel pretty sad that i haven't really watched "the tonight show" until tonight. not sure i would have made much of a diference. but i'm sad that he worked so hard and is so talented and is being shown the door simply because it's easier to do what is easy than it is to do what is right.
