Conan O'Brien's first Tonight Show

Conan O'Brien broke his Tonight Show host virginity last night and so far this morning I've heard mixed responses. I haven't seen the show yet, but it really seems like typical Conan stuff, which is always funny. I was looking for his complete opening monologue, but only found a clip that's about a minute long of it. I'll keep looking around and throw it up if I can find it, but for now -- enjoy this clip!!

Conan O'Brien will be Jay Leno's final guest


Jay Leno's final guest on The Tonight Show will be his replacement, Conan O'Brien. Conan has been off air for weeks in preparation of taking over for Jay, with Jimmy Fallon taking over as Conan's replacement about a month ago (and some say he's failing miserably at it.) Jay also said that James Taylor will be performing, which makes it an all-Boston panel. Jay had nothing but good things to say about Conan and is happy about his replacement.

I'm glad that it's going to Conan, it couldn't go to a better person. He's the guy, we're friends, and it's a really smooth transition.

Of course, Jay will still set the table for Conan once he moves to the prime time slot of 10pm with a brand new show in the coming weeks. Either way, I really think this reeks of awesomeness, because as far as The Tonight Show goes, it's totally Jay passing the torch to Conan. Jay's really a classy, stand-up guy. With a huge chin.

Final Jay Leno show announced


Our hometown boy Jay Leno (he's from Andover, MA, USA) will host his final episode of The Tonight Show on May 29. Current Late Night host Conan O'Brien will be taking over for Leno, Jimmy Fallon will take over for Conan on Late Night, and Leno could possibly jump shit from NBC to ABC and get a night show to go against Conan.

I'm pulling for Jay and his big ass chin to rule the late night talk show world.
