Perfect example of bringing the goofy shit that goes on in the writers room out to the stage. Conan and to an extent Letterman had to teach the audience that this kind of absurdity AND the rote, by the books celebrity interview could exist together on one show. Smigel is an underrated genius.
I think the same thing every time I watch Seems Like Old Times...all those dogs on the bed...running around the house,,,chewing up the robbers into little pieces...all of'em...every one...gone...dead as yesterday...and then I think, what's for dinner and will I ever know the love of a woman again...
Charles Harrison OMG Charles...I hadn't even considered that. Thanks a lot!:) "HONEY!...cancel my feet scraping...Of course we're still having Aurora's Chicken Pepperoni...DUH!"
michael mattice On the bright side, DOGS will not be able to read, therefore they won't know that the people that wrote the comments are dead and buried.
MrShiffles What the fuck!? I wrote that 9 months before you and nobody gave a fuck. Now they're throwing thumbs up at you like there's no tomorrow. Fuck my life.
LastAvailableAlias With her permission. But she decided she wanted to whine and bitch and knew how famous he is, so she complained that he should have read her mind, that REALLY she meant no, even though she said yes. What a pervert.
I really like these early Conan pieces when Louie and Robert were writing for the show Conan probably had a guest cancel and had to make something up on the day.
Liam M Stop asking dumb & obvious questions you already know the answers to. OK? You're just trying to get a rise out of me & get on my nerves.Cut it out.
I'd be willing to bet $100 that Louis and Robert were told to write something for an Adam Sandler guest appearance. This was how they made sure he played the part he deserved while still playing to his style.
The best part of this sketch is how badly the dog wants away from Loui. It's the most Louis CK thing that could have happened aside from him shitting his pants
2:21 Louis C.K. eerily resembled and sounded like Andy Kaufman in one of his performances, the one where he was crying and playing an instrument. And the lady in front of Sandler at 4:43 looks like Jessica Chastain with a bit of Julia Roberts.
Oh wow Conan you handsome devil. I LOVED the set during this time on the show. I wish he had not changed it so soon. Conan is awesome, but this show was not like anything else I had ever seen with the comedy and the quirky guests. It was the best.
seeing how mediocre they are this made me think, if you work hard enough on something you will be successful.. and im so glad louis kept working hard )
SOO glad I never saw this humorless, non-starter back in the day or I might have made a point of avoiding their brilliant work over the years. But my gladness is smothered by the pain of now having seen it.
AttilatheThrilla It's the truth. It's not like these guys haven't been funny later on in their careers. There's a reason we all clicked on this link. For me it was Louis CK. They are funny dudes. The segment was pretty shit to be honest and that's okay.
HS, that was Louis CK on Conan. I used to watch this when I was in High School in the mid 90s (it was on at 2:35am where I lived). I remember the red head guy from the skits but it never occured to me that was Louis CK; he looks so much different now.
