Chapter 1: The Show Itself


"Watch the Conan O'Brien Show -- you'll see."
                   -- Bart Simpson


1.1 What is "Late Night with Conan O'Brien"?

   "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" is a late-night talk show hosted by
Conan O'Brien.  LNwCOB appears Monday through Friday on NBC in the 
United States.  Beginning the week of December 11th, 1995, the show went 
back to the old schedule of repeats on Monday, and new shows on Tuesday 
through Friday (giving the show extra time to shoot remotes and 
production pieces).  It starts at 12:36:30 am EST and ends at approximately 
1:35 am.  It was first broadcast on September 13th, 1993 as the 
replacement for "Late Night with David Letterman" when Letterman moved 
to CBS to do "The Late Show."

    Beginning in December 1996, "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" will be 
shown at 10 PM EST from Monday to Friday on the CNBC cable network.  CNBC 
will broadcast re-run episodes one month after their original airing on NBC.

    Internationally, "Late Night" is broadcast through the "NBC 
Superchannel" at 11 PM, seven days a week.  Re-runs fill the two weekend 
slots.

    The "NBC Superchannel" is currently a Pan European satellite 
channel, broadcasting entertainment (NBC) and news (CNBC) programs.  It is 
broadcast both from Eutelsat 2 F1 across a broad area from Russia to the 
Canary, and on Astra 1D, covering of Western Europe.  NBC is splitting up 
the programming on "The Superchannel," and soon CNBC programs will be 
broadcast all the time on Astra 1D, and entertainment (NBC programs, 
including "Late Night") will be only found on Eutelsat 2 F1 during 
certain parts of the evening.  "The NBC Superchannel" is also carried on 
many European cable stations, serving most of the continent. 

    NBC has plans to open "NBC Superchannel Asia" sometime early in 1996, 
providing Superchannel programs to the greater Asian Pacific area.


"We're primarily a children's show.  There'll be puppets later."
		-- Conan O'Brien


1.2 How can I get tickets?

    You can get tickets by writing to:

    NBC Tickets
    30 Rockefeller Plaza
    New York, NY  10112

    Or call:

    (212) 664-3056/3057

    Three hundred tickets are also distributed to a mailing list of 
hotels and universities in Manhatten.  Check at your hotel lobby or 
student union to see if your building receives these comp tickets.

    Here's the official info from NBC:

    Individuals interested in obtaining tickets to "Late Night with Conan
O'Brien," which tapes Tuesday through Friday from 5:30 - 6:30 PM at NBC's
studios in New York, should mail a postcard with their name, address and
daytime phone number to "Late Night Tickets," c/o NBC, 30 Rockefeller
Plaza, New York, New York, 10112.  The wait list is about one month, and
ticket office personnel will do their best to accommodate specific
requests.  The ticket office does take group reservations for tickets over
the phone and for individuals turned away from a taping due to the large
audience turn out.

    Tickets can also be obtained by coming to the NBC Main Hall information
booth at 30 Rockefeller Plaza at 9:15 AM and picking up either general
admission tickets or standbys for that night's taping, depending on how
heavily booked that evening's show is.  Standbys are given out on a first
come, first served basis, and only one per person.  Standbys do not
guarantee admission, but our staff does its best to accommodate as many
people as possible.


1.3 When do they tape the show?

    They tape at 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm Eastern from Tuesday to Friday.


1.4 Why was Conan so nervous early in the show's run?

    You try replacing Letterman and see how cool you are.  Seriously, the 
show was rushed into production to fill the void left by Letterman, and 
on top of this pressure, Conan didn't have any talk show experience 
before this job.  He was a writer they put in front of the camera. Under 
this tremendous pressure, Conan was certainly at least a little edgy 
during his early run.  As the show progressed and settled into its own 
rhythm, coming out of Letterman's long shadow, and as Conan gained on 
the job training in performing on a talk show, the show has shown a 
steady improvement that continues to this day. 

    Even Conan's harshest critics have begrudged that Conan has improved 
greatly over his early shows.  Many have re-discovered the show and now 
consider his personable interviewing style to be the best on late night 
television.


"Oh no, this is television!  It goes everywhere!"		
		-- Conan O'Brien


1.5 What are some of the recurring skits on the show?

    A list of the recurring skits of the show is now its own document.  
It contains a listing of all the sketches on the show that have appeared 
at least twice.  The list is by no means complete, but it is the most 
accurate listing currently.  A version of it can be found at Joe Shaw's  
FTP site, Herbert Gambill's web page, and Damone's web page. (See 
section 1.21 for all the addresses)


1.6 So who's winning, Conan or Dave?

    They are not fighting each other.

    Conan and Dave are two separate hosts, with two separate styles,
and two separate shows.  They aren't even in the same time slot.  They
appear on each other's show, and compliment each other.  In addition, they 
have done many cross-over events in recent history.  Conan has appeared in 
Letterman sketches and Letterman even sent some of his standby audience 
over to Conan's show once.  The relationship is very cordial, and Dave is 
very supportive of Conan on and off air, even given that CBS's "Late Late 
Show" is in direct competition with Conan.

    Comparing Conan and Dave isn't necessarily evil, but it probably
won't get you very far.  Since each show is different, there aren't
really too many parts you can compare; comparing shows in general will
most likely have you just repeating which style you like more.


1.7 What about Tom Snyder and his other competition?

    It appears that Tom and Conan are attracting different audiences, 
since Conan's ratings have not gone down since "Late, Late Show" has come 
out.  Conan is stronger with youthful demographics, while Snyder has 
picked up an older audience.  The relations between the two remain very 
cordial, and each have appeared on the other's show and guests regularly 
appear on both shows.  There is definitely no "late night war" on this front.

    Up until recently, Conan was also competing against UPN's "Jon 
Stewart Show" and Disney's "Stephanie Miller Show."  However, both the 
Stewart show and the Miller show were cancelled. 

    There is something new on the horizon.  Letterman's production 
company, Worldwide Pants, has signed Jon Stewart to develop a project for 
CBS late night.  Stewart had also been in negotiations with NBC to be a 
permanent guest host for movie-making Greg Kinnear of "Later," and was a 
guest host for a few shows.  The new project is slated to run at 1:35, 
opposite of "Later."  Letterman has privately expressed some displeasure 
at Snyder's performance, and the likelihood is that Stewart is being 
preened to take over the 12:35 time slot opposite Conan.  This apparently 
is also the quiet end of "Lauren Hutton And..", the current CBS 1:35 
offering.

    Ok, to the numbers:
    - Conan is averaging around a 2.5 weekly, with an average 12 per cent 
share.  Snyder is averaging around a 1.8 weekly, with a 9 per cent share.
    - On Thursdays, Conan has been edging up to around or over a 3.0.
    - Conan has an average 1.4 in key demographics (young adults), and 
Snyder has a 0.7.  
    - Conan is holding 51% of his lead-in audience, and Tom is holding 41%.
    - For some perspective, "Late Night With David Letterman" was 
averaging a 2.7 at the end of its run on NBC.  Considering the dropoff 
Leno took after Carson left, and all the competition Conan is facing, it 
makes his ratings even more impressive.

    In order to clear up some commonly asked questions, here is a brief 
look at what some ratings terms mean.  A "ratings point" is a value set 
by the Neilsen company.  It is slightly less than 1 million viewers, and 
is an estimation of the total number of viewers who watched a program.  A 
"share" is the percentage of total tv viewers at the time who are 
watching the show.  A "20% share" is different at 8 PM then it is at 
11 PM.  "Clearance" reflects the number of affiliates who carry the show 
at its proper time.  The higher the number, the better the clearance.  
"Lead-in" is the rating statistics of the show prior to the rated show.  
There are often references to the percentage of the lead-in audience that 
is retained.


"Conan O'Brien is going to get better and better."
		-- Tom Snyder


1.8 I heard that Conan was cancelled.  Is that true?

    While it is true that Conan's future was not safe until recently, 
Conan is now in little danger of being cancelled.  As shown above, "Late 
Night" has been doing consistently well in the ratings even in the face 
of the increasing competition.  NBC has expressed support for the show, 
bolstered by the felling of competitors like Jon Stewart and Stephanie 
Miller.  The return to the four day schedule, to give Conan more time to 
tape remote and pre-taped segments, is a great show of confidence by the 
network.  Conan has just been given a year-long contract extension to the 
end of 1997.  In addition, the show has begun to do yearly anniversary 
specials and the writing staff was nominated for an Emmy.


1.9 How can I find out upcoming guests?

    Members of Conan O'Brien's staff periodically post upcoming guest 
lists to the USENET newsgroup alt.fan.conan-obrien.

    Herbert Gambill (hgambill@rbdc.rbdc.com) keeps a list of the current 
schedule for both the regular broadcast shows and the CNBC repeats at the 
top of his web page.  See section 1.21 for the address.

    Sue Trowbridge (trow@access.digex.net) has a "Late Night Lineups" page 
that has up to date info on who's going to be on what late night talk 
show.  It is updated from AP releases by the networks.  Its address is:

    http://www.interbridge.com/lineups.html

    Aaron Barnhart (barnhart@echonyc.com) writes a weekly ezine called 
"Late Show News" that has information on late night talk shows, including 
schedules.  To get on the distribution list, mail listserv@american.edu 
with the message "subscribe late-show-news YOUR NAME" (where YOUR NAME = 
your real name).  You can also see old issues of it on the web.  Its 
address is:
 
    http://www.mcs.net/~barnhart/

    European viewers with access to teletext can find out guest 
information on page 323.


1.10 Where can I find other electronic information about Conan and the
    show?

    rec.arts.tv and alt.tv.talkshows.late are good newsgroups to look for 
information related to "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" or for information 
about Conan himself.

    Aaron Barnhart's "Late Show News" (See above in section 1.9) also 
periodically contains articles and information about the show.

    The show used to be part of AOL's "NBC Online" section, but the two 
comapnies do not have a business relationship anymore.

    Subscribers to the Microsoft Network have access to the NBC Supernet 
(keyword "NBC").  This contains some of the same kinds of materials found 
on the AOL section, including interview chat sessions.  In fact, most of the 
chat sessions have been moved here.  However, participants from the NBC 
homepage (See section 1.21) can follow the interviews as they go along 
and submit questions to the participants.

See section 1.21 for a full listing of Web Pages and FTP sites.


1.11 What printed sources are there about Conan?
 
   There used to be a modest list of early Conan printed sources here.
However, this is being changed. Al Bell is currently working on a 
comprehensive bibliography on Conan.  The bibliography and its 
subsequent updates are also available for download at Joe Shaw's Conan 
FTP site, and the full text of some of the articles from the bibliography 
is available at Damone's site. (See section 1.21 for both)

    The new and updated version of the bibliography, marked up for HTML,
is available at Al's page. (See section 1.21)

    Also, certain interviews with Conan and other members of the
cast are available in their entirety online at Damone's site. (See 
section 1.21)


1.12 How can I contact the show?

    Via normal (snail) mail, you can write to:

    Late Night with Conan O'Brien
    NBC
    30 Rockefeller Plaza
    New York City, NY  10112

    The show used to be reachable through conanshow@aol.com.  Since NBC 
and AOL parted ways, AOL revoked the conanshow@aol.com account.  However, 
the show can still be contacted through funnyontv@aol.com and is working 
to get the conanshow@aol.com address back.  *Do not* use 
conanshow@aol.com until then.  Both are answered by Lynn Kaplan, a 
talent coordinator for the show.  Remember, use funnyontv@aol.com.

    NBC's general comment phone number is (212) 664-4444.


1.13 How can I write to NBC about the show?

    One person is:

    Rick Ludwin
    Senior Vice President
    Specials, Variety Programs and Late Night
    NBC Entertainment
    3000 W. Alameda Ave.
    Burbank, CA 91523

    NBC's homepage also has a page where you can send feedback into 
the station.  The address for that is:

    http://www.nbc.com/mail.html

    Another e-mail address is latenight@online.nbc.com.  This e-mail is

    Individual affiliates also have their own addresses and phone 
numbers.  A list of affiliates that do not carry Conan (as well as their 
contact information) is maintained by Jim Ellwanger. (See section 1.21)

1.15 Who wrote the theme song?

    John Lurie of the Lounge Lizards wrote the theme song.  He was a
finalist for the band leader job (Max's position).


1.16 Is there a Late Night drinking game?

    Would there be a question like this if the answer was "no"?  A hit 
with young and old alike, there is a lengthy drinking game for use with 
"Late Night with Conan O'Brien."  A copy of it can be acquired at Damone's 
web page and at Joe Shaw's FTP site. (See section 1.21 for both)

     Post any suggestions or additions to this game to alt.fan.conan-obrien.


1.17 I want to go to a taping.  What should I know?

     Here's a couple of tips on getting tickets.  It is just as easy to call 
for tickets as it is to write for them.  If you know way far in advance 
that you are going to go to a particular show, write in for them (use the 
address in section 1.12).  Otherwise, you can just call in and get 
tickets a reasonable time before the date of the show.  The wait 
*has* been getting longer, so reserve tickets as soon as you know 
you want to go.  Remember, the show now tapes from Tuesday to Friday, so 
Mondays are no good.  Even, and especially, if you are going to write in 
for tickets, it wouldn't hurt to call NBC to make sure that the show 
won't be on vacation the dates you wish to go.  Standby tickets are given 
out from the NBC Tour Desk throughout the day of the show, though usually in 
the morning and right before the show.  Outside of those times, you 
should ask at the desk if there are any left.  Three hundred regular tickets 
(not standbys) are sent out to a mailing list of hotels and universities 
in Manhatten.  Check at your hotel desk or student union to see if they 
are on the list to receive tickets.

     Once you get to Rockefeller Center, there are a couple things to be 
aware of.  You can now start lining up for the show (on the wall by the 
elevators opposite the NBC Tour Line) at 3:00.  Previously, pages used to 
shoo people aware before 4 PM.  If you have standby tickets, be sure to 
get there extra early to increase your chances of getting a seat.  
Outside of some occasional VIP seating, it is democratic first come-first 
serve.  It is *strongly* suggested to get there as close to 3:00 as possible, 
especially for the popular Friday shows.  A limited amount of standing- 
room-only seating is available for the overspill.

     A note on younger children: There is currently a prohibition on young 
children under 16 coming into the studio for a taping.  This is obviously 
to avoid crying babies and pesky children disrupting the show (not to 
mention the various curses which pass unbleeped in the studio).  If a 
child is old enough to pass for 16, there shouldn't be a problem.  If not, 
and it is a slow night, you may be able to get the child in with sheer 
persistence.  Please, do not force children that you know will be 
disruptive into the studio.

     Here's a couple of technical points on seating.  You can pretty much 
gage where you want to sit.  If you want to be seen on camera, you want 
to be right behind the railing by the bandstand, ideally right behind 
Max.  Also, in the center in back will also likely get you on camera.  If 
you want to dance with Conan or get a hug from Andy, you should sit on the 
right side on the aisle.  They seat left side to right side, so pick your 
place.  Remember: first in the elevator is last out.  Sometimes the 
seating is modified due to VIP lists or the like who get preferential 
seating.

    If you are looking to give gifts or the like to Conan, you have 
different opportunities.  If you are on the left side, give your presents 
to the pages as they seat you.  If you are on the aisles on the right 
side, you have more of a chance to give your gift directly to Conan.  If 
you miss your chance, give your gift to the pages as they lead you out.

    Here is a description of the "standard" warm-up that they do before the 
show goes on.  If you want to be surprised, don't read this:

    Mike Sweeney, one of the writers, comes out, and begins doing a warm-up 
routine.  He talks to the audience, engaging them and setting them up for 
jokes and barbs.  He'll pick on people from out of town, from other 
countries, in groups, etc.  After that, he'll introduce Max and the band, 
who will play for a while.  Mike comes back up the stairs and introduces 
Conan.  Conan barges up the stairs, picks out a woman sitting on the isle, 
and begins singing and dancing with her.  After this is over, he will 
sheepishly apologize to her and everyone for making a fool of himself. 
He'll then talk to the woman for a while, and then introduce "the man who 
saved my life in Korea," Andy.  Conan will then get Andy to give hugs to the 
woman and some other people.  Conan will tell the band to show some 
enthusiasm, and then they all go crazy for a while.  La Bamba tries to 
vault up into the crowd, but breaks the top off of one of the posts on 
the railing.  The band, except for Max, then comes up and dances with 
Conan and the woman.  They all go back, and Conan and Andy leave. Mike 
comes back and gives out the ground rules of behavior, and then Max and 
the boys play until the show is ready to start.


* 1.18 Are there any Late Night zines?

   Krunk! is the main (and maybe only) Conan fanzine. It's got articles
and interviews and all the sorts of stuff you'd expect to find in a fanzine.
 
   Here's the new release on the new incarnation of Krunk!: 
 
************
    Krunk!
 
    The fanzine so spanking new the censors don't know what to do with it!
 
    Krunk! is a fanzine dedicated to the television show, "Late Night with
Conan O'Brien."
 
    Krunk! took a long nap while Cynthia Gill, the publisher, moved from
Colorado to Texas and struggled through the bungee-jumping-like
experience of adjusting to a new job.  Cynthia has appointed Al Bell as
administrative editor to help bring Krunk! back to America's mailboxes.
 
    The exact publication schedule is still under consideration.  The staff
will start by publishing issues every other month.
 
    We will continue to feature things about the show, such as
interviews with stars, writers, and staff; great pics; Q&A with Conan and
his staff with questions from YOU the subscriber; fan polls; articles from
subscribers; and many other fun and festive features (was that too many
"F"s?).
 
    The subscription rate is:
 
    $5.00 for a six month subscription
    (this includes three full editions of the fanzine)
 
    Krunk! is run on half a shoestring.  Given the recent publication
difficulties, we suggest you subscribe only if you can live with the 
possibility that the publication schedule may be erratic.
 
    Please send subscription requests to this address:
 
    Krunk!

1.20 Is there a Conan comic book?

    There isn't a comic book just for Conan, but he has made an
appearance in one.  Look in "Anima: the Motion Picture #11."  Andy makes
an appearance too.  The cover price is $1.95.
