@@KronosProGamingi don’t think that’s quite right, it’s just that late night is a pretty stifling format. the freedom provided by the 2008 strike was less because of the writers being gone and more because their disappearance threw the industry into chaos. the clips literally start with conan saying he wanted to do something that he never had the chance to do before. hell, conan comes from a writing background, and when he left late night a few years back, he had nothing but praise for his staff. forgive me for harping on this. i still bristle at these insinuations that writers aren’t needed or stuff like that because of how tragically common of a sentiment it was last summer. working as a professional writer can be pretty grueling (not that i would know lol), and their work is often thankless by the public since you often only see their name as text in credits, let alone mentioned out loud or shown in front of the camera.

Conan was paying his writers during the strike, and he chose to keep doing the show so that all the non-salary workers on his show, like the camera guys, were still getting paid too. That was an incredibly sweet thing for this man to do and it's a reason why I still admire him today. My heart also breaks when I see Conan choosing not to be cynical; He was genuinely trying his best to improvise and keep everybody entertained, even though he was completely aware of how silly it all was. He's always been an inspiration to me, but the Writer's Strike and Tonight Show stuff really made me admire him.
