But he'll have a variety type show on HBO Max.

TBF, Conan isn't someone everyone can relate to. He's a bit pompous, and turns some viewers off. He's got a large following, but he wasn't drawing in viewership due to having a similarly large overall disdain of his style, so they had to let him go.

Personally, I've never been that big of a fan of Conan, I stopped watching the Tonight Show shortly after he took over, but I'm back to watching it again now with Fallon. I don't hate Conan, I just didn't find him funny enough to keep me interested.

Love Conan. His podcast is probably hardest I've laughed at any media.

You are very much about sharing opinions on guys you don't like.

Conan is probably the least arrogant of all the major late-night hosts, what are you talking about?

his pomposity was always a self-deprecating ironic brand, which a lot of people either don't get or dislike

personally I love conan but the TBS show was never all that great. here's hoping the HBO special leads to a creative resurgence

I feel like his era has come and gone

He should have been hosting the Tonight Show from like 2005-2015 and then moved on to something else

That's true. He's basically the only one not doing hackneyed political humor, which is apparently what the market wants these days.

Ohhhhh that's why you like him, I guess that makes sense

I was never too crazy about him, there was always something that just didn't sit right with me with him. Maybe it's just his face, I dunno.

I just didnt like how he kept getting added to video games as if he was a nerd icon but all his gaming jokes and segments all read to me like he didnt actually know or care about games and never touched one outside of the segment.

It felt like one of those hello fellow kids thjngs to appeal to a younger demographic, but he would tell the same lazy jokes with a faint video game coat of paint while holding a controller.
