Apparently, NBC has yanked seven months worth of episodes of “The Tonight Show With Conan O’Brien” from the internet.

Even though the Conan worked with NBC for 20 years, they have erased his “Tonight Show” existence from every possible place that they could. (continue reading…)

Conan O’Brien gives severance pay to for ousted staffers

by roberta on Feb.02, 2010, under articles

Conan O’Brien is a stand-up guy, especially when it comes to his ousted “Tonight Show” crew. Apparently, NBC did not cut them in on the receiving end of cash when it came to the negotiations.

Conan has taken the helm at shelling out the dough to the parties who got screwed in the deal. A source close to production said that “The Tonight Show” stagehands were not covered in the severance plan.

The talk show host has agreed to pay his nearly 50 person crew at least six weeks of severance.

Way to go CoCo! Staying classy even after the fact.

Conan O’Brien back in bed with NBC

by roberta on Jan.27, 2010, under articles

Former “Tonight Show” host Conan O’Brien is reportedly back in bed with NBC, the network who left him in a lurch over the late night talk show for Jay Leno.

According to TMZ, the network has picked up an hour-long pilot produced by Conan’s company, Conaco. The show is called “Justice” and is centered around a Supreme Court justice who resigns from the Court to open his own private practice.

Interesting how these things play out. I still wonder if he’s going to jump ship to Fox as soon as September rolls around and he’s a completely free agent.

Video: Jay Leno keeps it civil after Conan O’Brien bails

by roberta on Jan.26, 2010, under articles

Jay Leno took it easy on Conan O’Brien last night on his first appearance post-”Tonight”-gate. After Conan took off, I figured Jay would take a few easy potshots at him, but that hasn’t been the case. Not yet, anyways.

Instead of taking a verbal hit at the raven haired talk show host, he aimed at politics, and of course, NBC. Why would Leno want to take a hit at someone who couldn’t fire back, though? After signing a deal with NBC, Conan isn’t allowed to disparage the network until at least September.

Check out the video, after the jump. (continue reading…)

Video: Conan O’Brien’s Bugatti Veyron Mouse

by reddawnstate on Jan.21, 2010, under articles

To further screw with NBC, “Tonight Show” host Conan O’Brien spent an extravagant amount of money on the show’s newest character, the Bugatti mouse.

Along with that, he got the rights to air the classic recording of the Rolling Stones’ song, “Satisfaction”. Remember kiddies, NBC has to pay royalties whenever this song plays on this bit. Total cost of this expensive bit? $1.5 million!!!

Video: Conan O’Brien disses NBC in Spanish

by roberta on Jan.20, 2010, under articles

Conan O’Brien isn’t taking any of this NBC hoopla laying down. Sure, they may have him contractually obligated not to diss them, but Conan bad-mouthed the network last night anyways, only in Spanish.

First, he talked about the things he would like to catch up on, now that he’ll have more time on his hands. Then he proceeded to refer to NBC, saying in Spanish, “NBC Is Run by Brainless Sons of Goats Who Crap Trouble”.

Check out the funny video after the jump! (continue reading…)
