There are currently three running bits on Conan that I find absolutely hilarious.
“Pierre Bernard’s Recliner of Rage” (in which the extremely stiff and nerdy art director rants about insanely esoteric stuff);
“The Walker, Texas Ranger Lever” (Taking advantage of the fact that, since the NBC/Universal merger, he can show “Walker” clips anytime he wants, and godDAMN that’s a bizarre show! One clip had him wearing a rocket pack!);
and the best of all, “Conan O’Brien Hates My Homeland” (They’ve decided the only way to determine which countries he’s broadcast in is to insult them all in aphabetical order and see which ones send him hate mail.)
Seriously, the writers on that show come up with bits that make me laugh just based on the concept.
conan o’brien hates my homeland is indeed one of the funniest things i’ve seen in awhile. such a subversive way of commenting on the terse political climate these days.
Conan is hilarious, but don’t sell Letterman short man…his most recent 4 am episode was quite ingenious, and his clips of George Bush doing crazy weird things are very clever as well.

Conan’s reactions to this skit/clips is a guarenteed laugh from me. God-damn, that’s some funny stuff.
The staring contests of years gone by.
In the Year 2000…despite it being 2004. Love the stubborness of keeping it 2000.
And Cloppy. Cloppy is wonderful.
Shit, man, Secretssss! Those are great. I liked the Gweneth Paltrow one. “See, in Shakespeare in Love, I played a woman playing a man playing a woman. In real life, I’m a man playing a woman, playing a man, playing a woman. So, sorry to anyone who’s every beat off to me.” And the More You Know. God, I love this show.
