   The spongebob, runaway productions and talk show proliferation bits were   
   very clever and extremely well written. It's obvious why this guy was a   
   Harvard grad and one of the great Simpsons writers.   
      
   It's too bad this type of intelligent humour doesn't always shine through on   
   the TV show... I know, I know: demographics and the masses; but this type of   
   writing shows Conan is still on top of the edgy, satirical and irreverent   
   humour that made Letterman famous and oozes from Jon Stewart today. I'd love   
   to see the writers for LN and eventually Conan's TS push him back into this   
   type of intelligent Lampoon direction... with the occasional visit from the   
   Masturbating Bear of course.   
      
   If he wrote a monthly column, I'd seriously subscribe to the rag whatever   
   magazine prints it. It'd be great even if he did something like this for the   
   website whenever he had time.
