I get the feeling that's the direction the new Late Night with Seth Meyers will be going, too. I think it will be very influenced by Weekend Update and The Daily Show.
On another note, I heard that Jimmy Pardo, Conan's Opening Act, is hosting a pilot for Conaco and TBS called "The Weekly Awards" that seems like a bit of the old idea for The Soup (f/k/a "The What The? Awards") and Best Week Ever. Pardo's good, I hope it goes.
