Anyone just watch Conan O'Brien?

[archcommus]

So I just watched Conan and I'm wondering if they expected that martial arts guy to behave that way. I'm guessing no, since he said "Fuck this show" at the end. That must've surprised them. Looking forward to seeing if he talks about it tomorrow.

They had a guy on who was supposed to be a martial arts expert, but his act was clearly not real martial arts, breaking pre-broken boards, no real skills, etc., then he wanted a chance to redo part of the act and Conan told him he couldn't, and he got pissed and said "Fuck this show" and walked off stage. Wasn't funny at all. Conan seemed genuinely surprised, seemed real.

But yeah, people on IMDB are saying it was an act and I guess a sort of promotion because the guy's working on a movie under, guess who, Will Ferrell's production company (also on the show tonight). No surprise. More god-awful comedy just like Ferrell's.

Just watched it, and the bit at the end where they "coaxed" him back out, and he was all whatever about it. Pretty obvious it's a fake, if he was seriously pissed he would've just left, not come back out to tell Will Ferrell to dance around naked.

There was no doubt about it, it was a skit basically. I wasn't expecting a phony karate guy to come out, so it was pretty surprising. I was wondering if he is one of Will Ferrell's cronies, he was pretty funny - I don't usually stick around for the third act.

This thread reminds me of the people who were insisting that Matt Damon was really furious when he stormed off of Kimmel's set after getting bumped.

Good point.

Yeah, dumb comedy.
