Andy's funniest remote?
gm
Andy's leaving, which sucks.
I'm trying hard to be positive about the whole thing, but after watching
Andy and Conan together since the beginning, they're like two old friends to
me. I have plenty of real friends I've known since I was a kid, but I wish
half of the conversations I have with them could be half as entertaining as
the five minutes I spend watching Andy and Conan trade jokes at the start of
each show.
Hell, I even look forward to what Andy will do when Conan points to him
during the monologue every night - it's always different, but somehow he
always makes me giggle.
Anyone remember how the show wasn't quite the same when Andy was gone for a
week a few years ago, and they were doing these taped "Where is Andy today?"
bits every night? It was kind of lame. What's it going to be like when we
know he's not coming back? It'll still be funnier than any other late night
show, but it won't be the same.
Anyway, we can always make this a nine-month Irish wake, and talk about the
funniest things Andy's done on the show.
Myself, I'm having a hard time deciding between my three favourites:
Andy covering Mardi Gras in New Orleans (talking to drunks and collecting
beads)
Andy at Woodstock II (obeying the demands of a mob by chugging a
beer....interviewing Melissa Etheridge with a straight face that was
completely covered in mud)
Andy covering.....was it the Grammys? (Lobbying for the induction of Thin
Lizzy into the hall of fame, and yelling like a lunatic from a balcony to
every musician and record exec in the business: "WERE IS THIN LIZZY?!?!
YOU'RE ALL ASLEEP!!!"
Anyone else got any favourites?

It sucks, but seven years is a long time for a young guy to stick with
one really, really hard, stressful job.
Graduating from Late Night is probably as important for Andy as
graduating from grade school was for us.

I think the Blimp remote was the funniest Late Night of all time,
because it was so frightening, but the Mardi Gras remote is my favorite
remote, because it came on the air in February 1994, a day or two after
Matt Roush published a vicious, stupid review of Late Night in USA
Today.
The day the Roush review appeared, Conan looked like a corpse. Then,
when Conan and Andy did the Mardi Gras remote, they showed the
world they were either going to stay on the air or go out in a blaze of
glory.

Hey, listen everyone, cheer up! After all, isn't it better having had him
for a while than never at all? We got lots of great memories of the show,
and maybe if we're really, really lucky, Andy'll take over Kilborns show...
*yaw!!! Rawk on!*

It was a parody of the Bartles and Jaymes commercials Conan and Andy
did sometime around the second season. Conan was Jaymes and never said
anything (he meowed in one of their 'commercials') and Andy was Bartles
and did all the talking.
Besides being funnier than split pea soup, Andy did a great impression
of Bartles -- the two (maybe it was three?) commercials they did really
showcased what a terrific actor Andy can be.

Well, it wasn't exactly so funny, but it was cool to see Andy meet up with a
semi-celebrity he used to love. It was a guy from Michael Jackson's "Beat It"
video named Dane Peters who could (I don't know how to really describe this)
shake his head really furiously. They wandered around NYC, specifically Times
Square, and showed off "Robot" Dane's talent to people.
