>>I like Conan and I think he can walk the line between "smart and funny" and "dumb and silly". I think Andy Richter is going to hold him because because he is all "dumb and silly". Conan's monologue seemed brutal last night. His interview with Will Ferrell on Monday was priceless. Max Weinberg is very underrated as a participant in the show.
