I agree with just about everything here, especially the parts re-pasted above. I can actually find Ferrell funny on many occasions, but this was just not one of them. The whole thing felt like a really bad commercial for his upcoming film. Ugly. I would add that Conan did not really seem comfortable - maybe it was the size of the audience as maybe Kevin is suggesting here. I don't love Conan as much as some do, but I like him a lot and hope and expect him to do better - starting tonight with what really is a can't miss guest. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ TV or Not TV ....
