    So wait, is this White Andy, or Black Andy?

    Starting his second tour-of-duty with Conan O'Brien...hmmm, sounds like a big, fat winner to me.

    Oh, I'm glad to hear it!


    Also, and sorry for the OT, but this is driving me nuts: I have DSL, and it doesn't matter what browser I use, the sound on videos is OK but the picture jumps. Sometimes it gets behind the sound, but usually it just freeze-frames every few seconds. This just seems to have started in the last few months. I have a Mac, so I figured I was safe from viruses, but could it be something like that? Any troubleshooting tips?


    Sorry to distract from Andy, but I hadn't seen the "Rolanda" episode and I almost pulled an Elvis while it was on!

    @SaraRueful: I have the same problem with ALL videos posted on Defamer. The video and sound freeze after 2 seconds.

    @hicks: Helped a little, but not enough that the "delay" isn't annoying. Ergh! Thanks for trying, though, Hicks.

    @SaraRueful: "Gonzo gum gum," (The video thing that plays the ads on top of the screen,) will make my computer lock up until I get a message saying that I need to stop the script to access the page. Which now means that I associate The Flying Concords with being irritated. Which sucks, because now I love the Flying Concords slightly less.

    Can we start a petition to get him back as Conan's proper sidekick? I was always of the mind that the show was better with him as Conan's wingman. Granted, Conan is great, but his comedy is at times a bit ego centered; while self deprecation is one of his trademarks, a large part of his comedy is focussing the spotlight on himself. The show was much better when Andy was there to fill some air, because Conan was more relaxed and conversational.


    Should we start sending boxes of Pimp Hats to NBC? Come on, who's with me?

    Poor Mr. Richter left Late Night some ten years ago


    Christ, that was TEN YEARS AGO?? Seems like it was last season, holy hell. Gah, getting older sucks.

    Also, I read on IMDB that Ed McMahon will be the sidekick on the new show.

    @TryThisAtHome:


    This can't possibly be true.


    McMahon is old. While it would be genius for the first episode (really, REALLY genius) is there any truth to this anywhere else? I can't find any notice of this via google. That would be a HUGE announcement. I can't possibly see it being a reality. Can anyone confirm with a news source outside of imdb?
