Coco And The Peacock Are Fucking Done Professionally

The Chin sings! The curtain is about to fall on the long drawn-out melodramatic butt opera starring Conan O'Brien and NBC. The peacock announced this morning that after a long night of negotiations (please, you know they were just passing the bong around), a divorce settlement with Conan has been reached. They will put out an official official statement later on this morning.

According to the New York Times, the agreement is worth $45 million. Conan gave up some of his own severance to his staff. In the end, Conan's checking account will get stuffed with around $32 million. Conan's staff will get the rest.

Per the agreement, Conan can sashay over to a new network in about 8 months. Conan's manager issued a statement to the Wall Street Journal, and said that he can't wait to return to late night:

"Conan was appreciative of the steps NBC made to take care of his staff and crew, and decided to supplement the severance they were getting out of his own pocket. Now he just wants to get back on the air as quickly as possible."

Conan's final song and dance for NBC will be this Friday. After that, Conan will be free to apply a heaping amount of SPF:Infinity onto his nalgas and spend the next few months sunning his shit.

And now, every member of the "I'm With Coco" movement can re-purpose their posters and get behind a REAL cause:

TRUTH!

I don't think Conan is done professionaly. Unlike Leno he has more options which is why Leno had to hold on to the Tonight Show. Conan can go into writing and directing shows and movies if he doesn't do another late night show.

I think if we're honest, we'll admit that Coco is done professionally anyway. He hasn't been funny in almost 2 years and I hope his pity party goes away soon!

"Looks like NBC gets to keep Triumph as a result of this bitter, nasty divorce. If he shows up on Leno, Triumph and I are done professionally."

BWAH! Agreed. i've loved Conan since college (ten years ago now - yikes) and I hope to see him on late night again soon. How can you not root for a guy who not only takes care of his staff but managed to work Abe Vigoda into the show with hilarious results? Remember when he set Abe free in Central Park because Pa said that Conan couldn't take Abe with him when they moved to L.A.? In fact, I hope he's Letterman's guest on March 1st. Make it happen, Universe!

Congratulations S buddy on Thu, 01/21/2010 - 3:10pm.. There's always one strident douche who stinks up the comments of any given web posting by claiming not to care about the subject of the post. Way to add to the conversation. No, truly your ennui has really furthered the dialogue. Bravo.

you know you're a douche when you can unite Rosie and Howard Stern together in mutual hate of you. I can't wait for Conan to return to the air. I think Leno seriously underestimated how much people hate him, and how hard it will be to book guests now.

That is one HUGE ass! If Jay Leno does not want children it does not make him an outcast people.

I'm glad that Conan's staff is getting severance. It must be difficult for them to move from New York to Los Angeles and after 7 months find themselves unemployed.

I actually pity Leno, which is weird. And I don't mean it in a condescending way. I really do pity him or not being able to move on after the Tonight Show, for being so small-minded and hated by folks. His inner life must not be very fulfilling to hang on to such an unfunny gig.

**********************************************************************

You are right, Zorba. Jay had 5 years to get something other than The Tonight Show and he did nothing.

He has no children and just that wife. The idea of going home and staying with her must have been horrible for him that he worked hard to push Coco out so he can get his safe little spot back.

All I know is that has made great late night TV.

How about a little perspective.

We are supposed to feel bad for a guy that got demoted when he couldn't perform his job? A guy that got a $30 million+ severance? A guy that looks like an beady-eyed fetal pig(this asshole's lucky he is allowed in public before dark, let alone broadcast across the country),and is no more poised or funny than his first week on-air? We're supposed to feel bad because he uprooted his family (I do feel bad for his staff, but that shit happens in business all the time) to Los Angeles. He's being compensated $30 million to go to Los Angeles, not Af-FUCKING-ghanistan. Anybody here that wouldn't move cross country for that much? He comes off as a cry-baby. He should be on his knees thanking God for winning the lottery.

Show business is a popularity contest, in front of and behind the scenes. Don't blame Jay Leno for this any more than David Letterman not getting the Tonight Show. I'm sure David Letterman was a not well-liked dick, and I'm sure his predilection for interns is in old, open secret that kept him from the mainstream slot.

Confession:I haven't watch the Tonight show in many years, and haven't watched David Letterman since Chris Elliot was a regular, and have only watched Conan O'Brien on occasion to see if that train wreck looked any better. If they all disappeared tomorrow I doubt I'd notice.

I think this is the best thing that could happen to Conan frankly. He wasn't doing too well on the Tonight Show. His humor just wasn't for the middle aged crowd who watch the show. Now he's got a following and will probably do better on late, late night.

Yeah, but keep in mind in 2004 NBC asked Leno when he thought that he was ready to retire from the Late Show and Leno said 2009. And for 5 more years Conan patiently waited for his shot. NBC offered Leno 10 pm because they were pulling the "it's this economy" card and wanted to cut back on production costs. Leno was the one who said yes to having the 10 pm spot and Leno was also the one who said yes to getting the Tonight show back. So sure, NBC's one big giant multicolored pea(COCK) for dicking them around, but Jay's just as bad for not sticking to his word.

Face it, at the end of the day you can't help but root for Conan because he looked out for his staff, the ones that were hurt most by this fuck up. They don't have Leno or Conan money. They broke their leases and sold their homes to relocate with Conan and now they're all out of job in a land where every waitress and valet is still waiting on their big break.

I will continue to blame this whole mess on Jay Leno. Shame, shame on him and his ego.
I wish the best of luck to Conan and his group and hope they can find a good place to do their thing.

I don't feel pity for Conan, but I do have sympathy. I hate when people say that you can't feel bad for someone who is rich.

I am sure Conan has worked hard and took a lot of risks to get where he is. Most people are not willing to do that or don't have the talent, so they don't get paid like that. He is not Paris Hilton where this shit just fell on his lap. I can appreciate how shitty it must be to work so hard for a very specific dream only to have it snatched away like that. He clearly could quit whenever he wanted to. I am sure he is rich enough to not have to work on tv again. So my assumption is he genuinely loved his job and it sucks to lose that.

No it is not tragic, compared to other things, but that doesn't mean it still doesn't suck a little!

Anyone who felt sorry for Coco can now suck a lollipop without any worries..he is getting a million dollar orgasm that most of us will never know in our lifetime.

At the end, this is all NBC's fault. When Jay's contract was up, NBC decided to give the Late Night Show spot to Conan; the younger fresher face and at the end it bombed.

For all of you that really don't know the specifics, Jay Leno didn't voluntarily decide to leave the Tonight Show but it was mostly the doing of NBC. They tried fixing something that wasn't broken. Morons.

It makes you wonder if Jay will be pulling in the same numbers as before. This incident has left a lot of viewers with a bad taste in their mouth.

NBC did the wrong thing with Conan and with Jay Leno.

First off, they should have given Conan a chance to build an audience. They should have told the affiliates to shut the fuck up!!!

They could have kept Leno for 2-3 days a week and then put dramas on the other days. Lord knows there was like 3 Datelines a week.

But they had to pay through the nose to have Conan trash them like the a-holes they are.

they're all making millions anyway, so it's hard to really feel bad for anybody involved.

but Conan has said it was his childhood dream to host the Tonight Show, so in that sense, yeah I feel some sympathy that his dreams were pretty much crushed by Leno/NBC.

Conan shows what class he has. I hope he gets another gig elsewhere.

As for Coco, always a woman with style,grace, class and the biggest ass this side of the Universe.

Conan seems like a real nice guy - a class act for giving so much of his severance to his employees. And now Karma is smiling on him. He gets $32 million AND gets to take the next 8 months off! I could live with that!

I feel so badly for Conan.

He worked so hard his whole life to be the host of Tonight, he waited patiently, did a great job on Late Night, Lamo knew the deal for YEARS.

NBC gave Conan a ton of time to get his ratings up when he got Late Night, AND HE DID. This is just not fair.

Jeff Zucker is the biggest douche on the planet. I love the way that great people are dropping like flies from cancer, and he recovers.

Much like various druggies croaking while Wino and Hohan continue to walk the earth.

It's almost like this whole thing was planned in advance and the only person not in on it was Conan.

You can tell a lot about a person from how he/she treats staff/servers/sales clerks, etc. Classy Conan.

I agree 200%. NBC tried to say it was a PR ploy for him to ask for $$ for his staff, but he was one of the few who paid his writers through the strike out of his own pocket. That's why I used to love reading those stories on bitterwaitress.com to see which celebs were truly shitbags for real. Too bad there's not a gossip section on the new site anymore. :(

I can watch that video a thousand times and still laugh just as hard each time. It's really a shame that he can't take such characters with him. I'm sure Robert Smigel (the voice and hand up Triumph's butt) will think up something else for Conan. That is, of course, unless Robert Smigel has some sort of exclusivity thing with NBC that he can't do another network. Smigel also does those funny cartoons on SNL.

loric's picture

Conan is a class act-during the writer's strike he (as well as David Letterman) continued to pay his staff out of his own pocket. Jay Leno didn't until he was pressured into it. Again he's making sure his staff is taken care of-which is more reason to like the guy.
I can only hope people refuse to do the Tonight Show after Leno takes over again. And I also hope Conan is able to find another late night home.

But You make my dreams come true

On a night when bad dreams become a screamer
When they're messin' with the dreamer
I can laugh it in the face
Twist and shout my way out
And wrape yourself around me
'Cause I ain't the way that you found me
I'll never be the same
'Cause You make my dreams come true

I'm down on the daydream
That sleepwalk should be over by now
I know that You make my dreams come true"
