The man who wrote "Homer Goes To College" should not be getting screwed over.

Oh man I love that episode. I also love his DVD commentary on that episode.

The whole "Coco" thing stems from Tom Hanks calling him that on his first LA show, right?
Yeah, I think so.

Yep. Both are really great.

So Zucker has openly threatened Conan.  Didn't think the situation could get worse.  I was wrong.  To use a movie cliche: "Shit just got real."

From Letterman's recent Top Ten Messages Left on Jeff Zucker's Answering Machine: “Hi, it’s Jay. All in all, I think it’s going pretty well.”

First he CINECAST!s Conan over and then he threatens to keep him off the air? Sucker should be fired and then lined up and shot.

It was never a good idea to put Conan in the same slot as Letterman. They share the same audience.

Anyway, Leno isn't funny and him replacing a funny person is never good news. Can't say I care that much about late night shows anymore anyway though.

Hitler Learns Leno Is Moving Back To Late Night
That's hilarious.

There are so many unfunny YouTubes with that Hitler thing, and this is not one of them. Congratulations, pixote, for finding the needle in the haystack.

The balloon boy one was pretty funny, too.

When I finally do see Downfall, it's going to be difficult to take that scene seriously.
