The Last Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien

On Friday, January 22, Conan O'Brien hosted his last Tonight Show. For two weeks, Conan, Jay Leno, and NBC have been fighting about moving the Tonight Show to 12:o5 am so Leno can move his shitty Jay Leno show to 11:35 pm and move the rest of the show back a half hour.

Since Conan thought this was the worst idea ever, and it was, he decided that it would be best if left the show. I thought, along with many other people, that this was going to suck.

His last show was pretty good. He had Tom Hanks, who gave him the nickname "CoCo", Neil Young, and Will Ferrell.

Conan, along with Andy Richter, showed some clips that highlighed their 7 months that they were on the Tonight Show. After the montage, Conan gave a great speech about how he apprectiated all of his fans and that he was a part of the NBC family for 20 years.

It was a great farewell episode and I thought that it was great that Conan ended his show playing "Freebird" on guitar along with Beck, Ben Harper, one of the guys from ZZ Top, the Tonight Show Band, and Will Ferrell on lead vocals.
