I had a show. Then I had a different show. Now I have a Twitter account.........

Conan O’Brien is back. Weeeeelll, sort of. O’Brien has taken his show to Twitter. On his account opened Wednesday, his Twitter picture shows him with a monkey on his back and looking destitute. …..HA HA….. Clever, but I’ve never been a Conan fan. When the first late night shake-up happened in 1993, Conan a virtually unknown comic to American culture took over Dave Letterman’s spot. I followed Dave. Tried on Conan a few times. He never seemed to fit my comic type wit. I thought he was too goofy and slap stick. I hate slap stick it is sooooo predictable. …It was okay for comedy of the ‘20’s – 60’s …… So far O'Brien has 2 tweets: “This morning I watched Remington Steele while eating Sugar Smacks out of a salad bowl. I was naked.” & “Today I interviewed a squirrel in my backyard and then threw to commercial. Somebody help me.” …with 370k+ followers in 2 days. My daughter did tell me he was more popular than I thought.

I could not understand NBC’s decision to give him the “TONIGHT Show” other than he was there. I remember the days of Johnny Carson when the show had a sophisticated sense of humor. Leno seemed to continue the trend. Conan … errrrr ….. I admit I did not watch because I pictured the sophistication style ushered out of the sound stage. Do I think what NoBrainConduction did in the Conan/Leno fiasco? No! They gave him the show. It was his show to make it a hit or miss. Obviously the decision makers of NBC decided they were ready to go in a new direction. Hmmmm ....you know ....... he looks better in a beard!
