Conan definitely went out with a bang.....
It was a good closure to a good run. Better than Leno's, and more
spectacular than Carson. And definitely better than his Late Night closure
last year.
And with creativity like his and his staff, they will bounce back past NBC's
little intellectual property restrictions...(If Letterman could do it, so
can Conan)

Tom Hanks was a final guest on Conan's last "Tonight Show," and if one
trusty tweet is to be believed, Conan blew $500,000 on Hanks' walk-out
song.
When Hanks entered from behind a curtain to go to his seat, the band
played
The Beatles "Lovely Rita," which cost NBC half a million dollars.
Questlove, who is the drummer for The Roots on "Late Night with Jimmy
Fallon," almost instantly tweeted,
yo i hate spoiling but i will have you know that walk on song we just
heard
was half a milli. i know cause i got the list rate at nbc
and

walkon song lol.
