It was refreshing to see some good skits for a change. I'm in the middle of Weekend Update right now, but it's been good so far.

It was good. Conan is trueley the man! Ive been 2 his show twice and i think hes the best late nite host and hes got true comedic talent and instincts. I loved the skit with Moleculo, THE MOLECULAR MAN!!!!!!!!! And when he said it in spanish, it was hilarious!

The Napster trial and find the black people at the Knicks game were the best for me! I found Spike Lee jumping around.

I was laughing all the way up to Moleculo, then fell asleep and missed the rest! Not because the show was boring, it wasn't, I had a long day. I can't wait to see the rerun.
Damn early morning job.

The Melecular man was the BEST! I was laughing pretty hard. The "Spot the Blacks" wasn't that funny, until they showed the basketball team, and the bubbles were going crazy. Conan IS the best late night talk host, glad to see him on SNL too.

Better than it has been lately, although I'm not that big of a Conan fan. There were a couple jokes, though, that I could see coming from a mile away. One was
Spoiler:
in the Napster trail, when the guy from Cameo put on his glasses, took a sip of water, and took out his "statement," I knew right away his statement was going to be "Word up!" or whatever it was.
Too predictable. And, one of Tina Fey's jokes in Update was too predictable as well. Don't remember what it was, though.

Otherwise, a pretty good episode.

Scott: Regarding the joke in your spoiler space, I thought it was intended to be obvious. I mean, I thought the entire point of the joke was that the audience knew exactly what he was going to do, and the funny part was how much it was prolonged as he went through his pockets and such... I knew what the punchline was going to be, but I was laughing hysterically when the payoff finally came.

I guesss you're probably right, Adam. Although I didn't mean anything bad by the predictibility of it, per se.

I saw this last night too by chance. Is there a rerun of it? If so, when?

I assume it will be repeated sometime during the summer, fi not before. I'm sure they don't have a date set for it yet, though.

it wasn't as funny as i thought it was going to be, but it certainly was better than most of the stuff SNL has been doing. I especially loved the beginning. That opening thing with Max and his wife was so typical Conan stuff. Can't wait to hear him talk about it next week on the show.

the best skit was the guy and his girlfriend trying to buy beer in Boston and then Ben Affleck showed up. It was so funny when Conan said boner.

Man, am I the only one who didn't think it was that funny? I'm a big fan of Conan, but last night's SNL just didn't do it for me. That boxing skit seemed to go on forever, and I really hate watching those skits with Jimmy Fallon playing a guy from the Bronx with his girlfriend. Maybe it's cause I'm not a New Yorker, but I never find anything they say funny. The only thing I really found funny was the Molecular Man skit, but even that one went on too long. I guess I was just expecting too much from the show since Conan was hosting.
