Conan the Unemployed?

NBC's prime time and late night ratings suck peacock. The Jay Leno Show is as terrible as its hammy host, and The Tonight Show can't win because David Letterman put his penis in employees and comedic genius Conan O'Brien hasn't. Instead of canning Leno, the network is considering giving The Tonight Show back to him and either convincing Conan to follow him again or leave. Personally, we think the comedic genius with the tuft of red hair should bounce and get the last laugh. And here are a few suggestions on how to do it. Check out our ideas for TV moves that Conan O'Brien could make if NBC strips him of his show.

Conan_Conando

DO THE CONANDO TELENOVELA
• If you think Conando, Conan's heroic telenovela character who always beats down melodramatic bad guys to save the day and get the girl, is too ridiculous for TV, clearly you've never watched Univision.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conan_Tintin

DO A LIVE ACTION ADAPTATION OF TINTIN
• With three to five concentrated hours in styling every morning, we think Conan just might be able to pull off the hair.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conan_Magic

DO A LATE NIGHT TALK SHOW ON FOX
• Close your eyes and imagine...The Conan Magic Hour! No, not an hour of Conan doing magic, but the unstoppable duo of O'Brien and Fox's failed late night talk show host Magic Johnson! Hey, uncomfortably awful ebony-and-ivory comedy works for Leno and Kevin Eubanks.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conan_The_Roots

BECOME THE NEWEST MEMBER OF THE ROOTS
• If Conan is forced to stay at NBC until his contract expires, he should force his way into Jimmy Fallon's house band. What difference is a 27th band member gonna make? Plus, every time Fallon attempts to do something resembling comedy, Conan could do this.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conan_Skinemax

DO SKINEMAX
• Once the world has seen Conan's milky white hot scenes, all other non-penetration stars will pale in comparison.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conan_Meetthepress

TAKE OVER MEET THE PRESS
• The last thing political talk shows need is more dry blather. We're not saying David Gregory should go, he just needs to agree to be Pimpbot 5000's bitch.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conan_Walker

PLAY THE NEW WALKER, TEXAS RANGER
• Conan always loved to show ridiculous Walker, Texas Ranger clips. Why not play him? And you didn't think anything could be more ridiculous than a white Texas ranger having a black buddy.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conan_MB_Triumph

DO A SITCOM WITH TRIUMPH AND THE MASTURBATING BEAR
• Fur won't be the only thing flying when a sexless geek moves in with two wild and horny animals! (Spunk will be flying all over the place too, you see.)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conan_Simpsons

SAVE THE SIMPSONS
• Conan desperately needs to work the magic he did when he wrote and produced for The Simpsons during its early '90s peak. Seriously, when it comes to yellow people, WWII internment camps were funnier than Matt Groening's show is nowadays.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conan_Stewart_Colbert

UNITE WITH JON STEWART AND STEPHEN COLBERT
• If Comedy Central is smart, it'll scoop Conan up with the quickness and take over late nights with this comedic trinity. Even Letterman's wandering prick ain't fuckin' with that.
