Dr. Fieldstone sharing a last name with the quack radio host from Sleepless in Seattle is intentional, right?

Nothing ages worse than comedy, but I can’t imagine Conan’s remotes ever aging poorly. Their comedy perfection.
Stern called his 2015 interview with Conan his best, and I’m inclined to agree. I’ve listened to it multiple times. He mines comedy so well from his rough early days, it’s incredible.
CONAN: I feel like people don’t like me and want me to go away.
THERAPIST: These are voices in your head. They’re not real.
CONAN: Fuck…
The great thing about Conan O’Brien is like you said, his willingness to try anything. Travel to Cuba, Haiti, Mexico, guest star on a telenovela. I remember an episode when he went to Israel and he was listening to some Palestinians vent at him about Israel, it was uncomfortable and certainly not funny but it was…
Something that has become increasingly endearing is that Conan always seems to have people on the right side of comedy in his corner. The outpouring that Conan seems to get from actual funny people is wonderful. Hearing someone like Bill Hader talk on the podcast about Conan’s influence makes me smile so damn much.…
I do recall them trying to do a backdoor pilot in Season 8 about vampires in Chicago.
For the love of god let the show die already! I don’t care about Sam and Dean’s shitty dad.
I don’t understand people’s passion for Marc Maron at all.
The Italian road trip with the fart noises is my favorite segment because Jordan finally cracks under Conan’s abuse and unloads on him,
“Fuck! You are a fool. You’re a fool. You frame yourself as this sophisticate, an academic, you know, an intellect and you’re a fool. This is toddler humor. All of your training has…
I’ll be sure to change the headline to “5 best moments from Conan and Jordan’s heady melange of bafflement, fascination, exasperation, contempt, and affection”
Despite many aspects seeming campy or clunky in retrospect, I would love to see non-ironic, faithful adaptations of Caves of Steel and The Naked Sun.
“It’s safe to say that the anti-vaxx protesters who conflate a public service that everyone must do so we that the coronavirus doesn’t kill us with segregation didn’t work.”
And that’s the thing, it’s Rita Moreno.
As a, light skinned Latinx, I will say there are times it sucks being that because like lots of minorities it comes at you from both sides.
It was an easy b, and it was wonderful. Not everything has to be a fucking transcendent show to be valuable. And the reality is, the stories coming out are deeply disheartening.
Man, the first two seasons are some of the best comedy TV of the last decade.
Not sure if anyone mentioned it already, but did Dan get killed by ‘God’...from Supernatural?
MAZE: Which favours do you want me to call in?
Lucifer was saved by Netflix after network cancelation, then renewed for a fifth and final season, then renewed for another season (so now the sixth will be its final season), because of just how popular it is. I’ve had plenty of my other coverage axed over the years, but I’m very happy that hasn’t been the case for…
Really, screaming, never heard him scream on the podcast. You just don’t like to hear someone have fun I guess
