**********************************************************
THEME OF THE WEEK:
Cracker! Get in my mouth! Week
RUNNERS-UP:
Can Conan Dance? Unh-Unh, Unh-Unh-Unh Week
Black Beauties with Low-Cut Dresses Clutching Their Breast Week
The Democrats, The Jewish, The Fat and The Emmyless Week
BEST GUEST (FOR CONAN TO PLAY OFF):
Roshumba. Conan was getting some good zingers in there... and I just
like hearing about his butt. That's what they say, you know. If you want
to talk butts, talk to Roshumba. If you want to see t*ts, talk to
Roshumba.
BEST GUEST (WHO PLAYED OFF CONAN):
Tom Brokaw. That dude was ON, yo! Ok, it's fun to use slang in
conjunction with that mighty name.
WORST GUEST:
Eugene Levy. I think he's coming down with a bad case of
Dogballs-Brainfarts Disease. He couldn't keep his train of thought.
Maybe it got hit by the Gore train -- alright! That's exciting! He's
always been my least favorite SCTV cast member, and the length of time
it took him to prep that lame teeth thing... (my Uncle Larry does that,
too)... and then the rushed Dog Molesting sequence... ugh.
QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK:
1- Who the krunk is Alonzo Mourning?
2- What is the Airline that's in trouble?
3- Did you know Conan's ladyfriend talks like Edith Bunker, too?
Unless.... he lied, that horrible maaaaan!
4- How fast do YOUR knees hit the floor when Big Business comes
knockin'?
5- Who wants to show the Puppy "what's up"?
6- So, will there be Reruns during the Olympics, or just *gasp* dead
air?? Never thought I'd miss reruns, but...
CONAN'S BEST LINES:
*"Keep cool, my sweet baybays!"
*"With an ass that needs to be held up by a kind stranger."
*"MAN.... don't know how I do it." <shrugs>
*"Benny and <drumroll, please> ...*Jojo*." Extra Bonus: Alf was
mentioned within the same 20 seconds.
BEST CONAN LINES OUT OF CONTEXT:
*"Play Hide n Seek with a lollipop..."
*"I got plenty of them when I was a jock in high school."
MOST CURIOUS STATEMENT:
Conan: "I had the first Jewish drummer... I think I should deserve a
little, ah... look at that."
BEST GUEST LINES:
Roshumba: "He's tall like you, but muscular."
Queen Latifah: "I'm too... endowed."
Demetri Martin: "Man, these are some sweaty nads."
Tim Robbins: "Tipper has had that in her thing for years."
A ROCK STAR ON METAPHYSICS:
Ted Nugent says, "The good Mother Earth produces purity, man."
RE: THE LOST EMMY:
Hey now, it's not the "fifth straight loss", it's the "fifth straight
nomination." Ahhh, the power of positive self-talk. Hey, Lucci waited 19
years.
MESSAGES FOR LATE NIGHT:
You can *buy* trophies... even though you shouldn't have to.
MESSAGES FOR AFCOB:
"This is for YOU, afcob!" <somersaults and farts>
Now, wasn't that nice?
BEST SKIT OVERALL:
Jon Glaser is *back*, bay-bee! "The Unh-Unh Guy" was on Late Night
par... everybody dance, now....
WORST SKIT OVERALL:
Although it had its moments, Celebrity Autographs really hit the bowl
hard, if you know what I mean. At least with the audience... some
notables, however -- I enjoyed what Kelsey Grammar, J.K. Rowling, and
Bob Shampoo Hope had to say. Sausages, bed-wetting, and bubbles never
went so well together.
SPECIFIC SKIT HILIGHTS:
*Max on Max! Wow, never seen it before... Highly disturbing, yes, but I
can only chalk that up to Max's excellent acting. As the guy, as the
girl... 5 stars.
*Before Plastic Surgery... Keri Russell wins Most Funny; and who knew
that Garry Shandling was once Mick Jagger, and Lara Flynn Boyle used to
be Ric Ocasek? Conan says she was used to steal cars... no, she used to
BE a Car.
SPEAKING OF ALTER EGOS:
Conan can officially be known as "Squeaky Chin: your gay buddy."
BEST MONOLOGUE JOKE:
Lots of thudders this week... I guess, for shock value, the Cream Puff
joke was best. I kept thinking of an icing bag... *shudders* Aww, who
am I kidding, I loved it.
WEIRD CONINKY-DINK:
I was actually eating Wheat Thins when the Actors Strike skit was going
on. And I'm never eating Wheat Thins. How's that for strange. I wish I
had been chuggin' a beer, though. Steam Anchor, was it?
BEST PHYSICAL COMEDY:
~in higher quantity than normal~
*Conan as Clinton the Hothead, being restrained by... air
*Lieberman's air-five
*The exact technique to use while fondling Conan's derriere
*A Secret Service guy getting hit by a Bad Joke Bullet
*Whatever face Conan made during the Olympics Preview 2000 logo
*The return of the Handsome Guy face... that is actually not attractive
*Conan's "Isn't He Dreamy?" expression as Lieberman serenaded us
*Conan's Potty Dance after Clutch B-B-Bush
BEST VH-1 PLUG EVER:
"Let's talk about VH-1 and try to get the mental image of my naked body
out of everyone's mind."
BEST NEW LN PROMOTION:
Win-A-Date With Tom Sparks
(That guy, well, what was left of him... was *fine*.)
WEIGHTY PREJUDICES:
Ok, so Jamie Foxx (also a good guest) says he likes women with meat, or
"thick", and Conan assumes immediately that thick = fat. Ted Nugent rags
on fat people... Judge Mills Lane rags on fat people... Demetri makes
cracks... not to mention the long-standing Marlon Brando and Pavarotti
jokes... not cool, Aphrodite. It's getting old.
BEST MINNESOTA ACCENT:
Tom Brokaw inadvertently says yahhh for yeah... "I have a couple,
yahhh..." Made me feel at home, ja.
BEST RECURRING SOUND:
Conan did the honor of beat-boxing for us again. He's good... for
white bread.
NEW PHRASES TO USE AROUND THE HOUSE:
*Look, I think you're barking up the wrong hair.
*That's the best pie-screwin' movie of the year! (Move over,
cotton-pickin'... you got competition.)
GOOD LINE TO USE IN A PERSONALS AD:
"I don't really like *crap*, but I *am* lonely..."
CONAN QUIRK #324.88:
You ever notice how, after a guest segment is over, Conan leans really
far to the right? Like he's trying to stay on camera? Meanwhile, they
are at a wide pan... maybe he just likes everyone's cologne.
MORE ON DEMETRI:
I liked him. It took awhile, but I liked him. He needs some experience
and polish <Jojo spits on heel of hand and wipes Demetri's cheek>, but
his material was pretty funny. I had to watch a second time to think so.
I like his "contrived premises", "receiving Karate", and "New Yorkers
and their dogs" lines. He was obviously well-educated, but came off a
little high.
NEW BAND NAME:
Max Weinberg and the Seven Dapper Dudes.
A MUSIC MINUTE:
Does Max play Pearls? My father swore by Pearls. He had a white pair
himself.
SCARY, BUT TRUE:
There are two possibilities--
1)Gore wins, and Clutch Cargo stinks from there on in...
2)Bush Jr. wins, and Clutch Cargo is hilarious...
I wonder if Conan and Smigel would vote for Bush Jr. just to keep a good
material feed.
BEST NEW BUMPER:
The Conan profile silhouette, with multi-colored hair. Pretty inventive.
I like to do shout-outs to the art department.
BEST IMAGE:
Two sausages wrestling and kissing each other... oh, the possibilities.
WHO'D A THUNK IT:
As noticed by several Afcobbers, Joe Lieberman sounds like the Dad on
ALF. Except when he sings -- then he sounds like just about any bar on
Karaoke night.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
Don't forget, girls, You're An Ocean, You're An Ocean...
And guys? You're an Island, You're an Island...
And if you're Conan? They call it Woman Island, yeah....
Later, everyone.
Respond to this for the hell of it, since it'll be the only one around
for 3 weeks. *sob*

Dead air during the usual time. But reruns will still be

Is that what that was? I thought it was New Age and here its

Should we just take up an AFCOB collection and SEND them some
freakin' trophies? Yves? Gena? Who else is in the NYC area?
I've got some madcap ideas for trophies. Something like...
*shrug* The Cobbies? (feel free to jump in with some ideas
here people!) I dunno.
Basically, structure it so everybody gets an award for something.
New Boots and Panties (anyone else remember that LP?) Award:
Jimmy for coordinating socks above and beyond the call of duty.
Best Bone Award: La Bamba... for his TROMbone, silly.
Best Night of Sax Award: Jimmy.
*sigh* Ok, I guess it's pretty obvious where my focus is, so
I'll stop now. Whaddya think?

I like Tom Brokaw too, but I still wish Conan had broke "character" and
behaved like the sharp, smart harvard-educated guy he is instead of a 14
year old boy. I think the segment could have been really funny and
interesting. And then maybe Ted Koppel would agree to do the show...

watch, rather than SNL which was going through one of its unfunny periods...

>1- Who the krunk is Alonzo Mourning?
Are you serious? He's the center for the Miami Heat. He's famous in NY
because of the rivalry the Heat has with the Knicks. He's the 7 foot
brother with a bald head and beard.

But they also do a lot of skinny jokes. I guess there could be less of both.

I don't like it when comics jump from topic to topic, doing a lot of
totally unrelated jokes. I want them to tell a funny story or at least to
connect their jokes cleverly, like Ed Byrne [sp?] or Sarah Silverman.
If they don't do that, I can't really enjoy their act, even if the jokes
are good.

That's right CP! I'm glad you answered this question. Not as ugly as Ewing?
He's shouldn't even be compared to him. Alonzo is very handsome. I hope you

hmm.. zo's pretty famous, so i thought it kind of funny that someone hasn't
heard of him.. but then i remembered that i'm a knicks/sports in general fan
living in the tri-state area. so, my point is that i'm quite pleased that the
knicks got rid of ewing's sorry old (so very old) ass today.. oh yes, that's a
good thing. the "see ew later" front page of the ny post today was choice. as
for ugliness.. i think it's a toss-up between scottie pippen and reggie miller
for that dubious honor.
oh yeah, like there are better things to talk about during a late night-less
