Amazon.com: "How did you get this talk show?", a seemingly perplexed David Letterman jokes with his successor, Conan O'Brien, in an early clip included on this primetime special. Conan was unknown to the general public when he took the reigns of Late Night, but he had already established his comedy cred in hipper comedy circles as a writer on Saturday Night Live and The Simpsons. And while the prospect of a tenth anniversary show might have seemed unlikely in those early years, Conan and company remade Late Night in the host's pop-culture savvy and self-deprecating image. While Conan's fifth anniversary special might have been a nice addition to this disc, this 10th Anniversary celebration is an uproarious recap, sure to have newcomers scratching their heads at such Late Night characters as Pimpbot 5000 and the Masturbating Bear. Along with the classic clips (William Shatner forgetting the name of his signature Star Trek character, a practical joke that sends former sidekick Andy Richter naked onto the set of Today), there are celebrity cameos by Ben Stiller and Mr. T and appearances by Will Ferrell and Jack Black, and breakout star Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. The generous bonus footage collects even more signature moments not included in the special. So, to quote O'Brien's huckster in a commercial spoof: You want to laugh? Late Night with Conan O'Brien has the guests, the costumes, all laughs, all the time. Come and get it! --Donald Liebenson
Great humor and funny! This show is hillarious, a must buy! If your looking for a new or first comedy show, this is a great start. Not only is he funny, but witty.
LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O'BRIEN LOTS OF FUN AND GOOD TO SEE AGAIN SOME OF THE VERY FUNNY GUEST INSERTS. LETS HAVE MORE OF THE SAME.
Late with Conan O'Brien 10th Anniversary Special Rocks This was purchased as a gift for our 19 year old son who said it was the best. He is a huge fan of Conan O'Brien and feels this was the best compilation of Conan's work.
Jumped the Shark Late Night w/ Conan O'Brien, was an entertaining and original show,from about 94-99. Around the time Andy left it started going downhill. They started running certain sketches into the ground. The new skits werent nearly as funny or original. Even the interviews have become boring,for the most part. The show has become mainstream,reflected in this DVD. This DVD is pretty bad,overall. Only reccommended for serious fans.
Excellent First off, anything having to do with Conan is great, but this DVD is the best! The show is great and the DVD extras are even better! Buy this DVD!
