At the time, people only really knew how funny and talented Conan actually was if they stayed up to 12:35am every night to watch him (like so many of us weirdos did) so a lot of people were still unfamiliar with his comedy style at this time... I remember watching this live and being so proud to be a Conan fan. That musical number was perfect and the most Conan thing you could possibly hope for in an awards show opening 😂
@@ronojoydutta8485 literally I don’t think there were barely any celebrities that went up and landed a joke except Conan, so many obligatory laughs for cringey jokes, and then Conan who eats cringey jokes for breakfast and spits them out as actual comedy
Between the Emmys, the first episode of The Tonight Show, and the first episode of Conan, Conan is the king of cold opens. (The cold open for his Late Night show was also great).
Conan usually has a team of writers helping him write material, but I'm almost certain he wrote that Music Man parody by himself. He's stated multiple times The Music Man is his favorite movie, and he wrote the monorail song from The Simpsons, which was also inspired by The Music Man.
I seriously love Conan. It's a specific kind of humor that only a certain niche can appreciate. It's like the introverted version of Robin Williams' type of humor but made more appropriate. I am glad that he never went mainstream because it makes his humor feel more special, but I also wish he had gone mainstream so that we could see more of him. I know he has his podcasts, but I really miss the creative skits and jokes. @TeamCoco
NBC did the dumbest thing ever by letting go of Conan. They publicly screwed him.. but luckily for Conan he got a nice payout.. and him switching over to his TBS show gave him the freedom to really utilized his talents and was able to do what he wanted which made him even funnier.. He transcended himself into the one and only legend of TV Hosts that will ever be considering the Late Night Talk show format is essentially dead. (Except for Johnny Carson for he was before my time)
This is the most exemplary example of how to keep the most talkative of people on a timeline while simultaneously not pissing them off. Shout out Conan
ConeBone69 LMAO I love Conan That was the best opening ever made. The Oscars should've offered the Host job to Conan.. it'd actually be entertaining for a change
i cannot believe im actually watching emmy's from nearly 20 years ago. i was 10 back then and didn't even kniw what the emmy's were. the things we do for Conan
No, this, as the title clearly describes, is Conan O'Brien hosting the 2006 Emmy awards. This is not, literally, or figuratively or in any other sense, a live rendition of the Monorail episode from The Simpsons. There are no references to monorails, or that episode. The closest connection, is Conan doing a musical number wearing a hat vaguely sinister to that worn by character Lyle Stanley. The connection is tenuous at best and again, is in no way literal. Words have meanings. Do you conceive of material, in your head, the way Homer Simpson makes up movies when he's bored watching another ? And pretend that material in your head is actually the material playing on screen, instead of the real content ?
POV: *you saw the low quality video and youre looking for a clearer quality video*
😑😒
Literally me😂😂😂
here's my peeps
its a whole 120ps higher
you striaght up called me out haha
This opening will forever be the best until the end of time
Lost, The Office, South Park, and To Catch a Predator lmao
House too! (sorry fanboying) such a killer line up.@@MrBuketman
Lol imagine if Games of Thrones release that in 2008 it would've be funny to see Conan in GOT world he meet with Tywin or something.
@@MrBuketman 24 also
This has to be the most Conan thing that Conan has ever done.
It's considered the coniest Conian in all of Conolagogy. I say this as someone who has a master's degree in Conology.

Conan started hosting Late Night in 1993. This was recorded in 2006. Conan was a worldwide phenomenon by that time. He was very well known.
Late Night with Conan O'Brien will always have a special place in my heart.
Greatest opening ever. Also I can’t believe they actually went through with making that Tom Cruise in the closet SP joke 😂
Yeah, if you're 12.
@@BiffJackson-o4ior 92 😂
I believe he said “Bruce” meaning Bruce Jenner.
@@musicjunkiefl no its cruise. apparenlty he had been in a recent south park episode with the same idea
Such an incredible time in TV. Really the last golden decade before streaming.
Agreed!
There were some good streaming shows over the years but mostly dark, depressing, not something to watch with the family. That’s what’s been missing.
Bro idk what you’re yapping about… we’re in the golden age of TV
All Conan parts:
0:00
20:22
27:10
31:00
53:22
59:48
And that’s it, folks!

Agreed!! Loved that Tonight Show opening
And now he's hosting the oscars!!!
One of the greatest openings I have ever seen. Every time I go back and watch this I cant help but shake my head in awe. Conan is a genius.
I'M HERE FOR CONAN😊😊
Well no shit
Definitely not the Emmy’s.
Seeing this and realizing it was right before NBC had Prime Office, 30 Rock, Parks & Rec, and Community. Such a packed roster.
Amazing shows but they weren’t ratings powerhouses but the following now is way bigger than when they originally aired
this was back when NBC was still suffering (mind you 30 Rock would premiere after this Emmy Awards)
54:32 Damn.. That mic swinging skill.. Conan is professional at almost everything in SHow BiZ!
It's a skill that Conan learned during his time holding the mic for Triumph the insult comic dog.
I love how the audience inmediately recognized Tom Cruise in the South Park skit. That episode was still fresh in people's minds back then
I didn't know it was Tom 😂😂😂
He says “Bruce”, it’s Bruce Jenner not Tom Cruise.
"which means that halfway through this show will be cancelled" little did he know...
what do u mean?
@@roxydzey Do you not know of the 2009 War for the Tonight Show?
I thought he was making a joke about himself, I forgot this was before
I'm only watching this for Conan I was feeling down and he always makes me 😃 smile
What an amazing time for television! Every tv show featured in the intro is legendary.
Conan usually has a team of writers helping him write material, but I'm almost certain he wrote that Music Man parody by himself. He's stated multiple times The Music Man is his favorite movie, and he wrote the monorail song from The Simpsons, which was also inspired by The Music Man.
He cut his teeth writing at Harvard and the simpsons he could easily write on his own
Conan the Greatest. Carson is smiling down on this man.
Conan is a national treasure

Conan is truly a great host
Ladies and gentlemen, your Oscar host. This man will not fail. Your proof: anytime he's ever hosted any telecast ever.
Best emmys opening ever
Wow! Now watching from 2022, I didn't even remember TV in 2006 was this good!
Even looks like they really made an effort!
Best Emmys intro ever this was the best era of TV shows ever.
Man, Conan has a very high bar to meet for the next Oscars intro!
Perhaps the Best opening I have seen in a long long time!
how funny is Conan. Sooo good. That intro sequence was hilarious. I loved House's diagnosis
Just the best entrance of all time.
Wow, Conan O'Brien will remain a legend for coming 100s of years. I don't know what I'm or anyone else is doing with their life. 🤔
This was fantastic. The jokes are amazing
I don't think I watched any of these shows back then but Conan made it fun.
The best start of an award show ever
I have such a vivid memory of this. One of the funniest things I had seen up to that point.
Conan may not only be the greatest TV star ever, but he may also be the host of this particular show.
WOW, the quality of this video is AMAZING!!!
Conan's "Trouble at NBC" musical number starts around 12:22.
That intro was amazing
Thanks! Watching in bed at midnight and when Conan hair dryer scene happened, I laughed so hard I woke up the baby.
The greatest crossover event in history
Conan is king 👑
Hope he gets to host more shows like this in the future still.
The best Emmy's open ER! There will NEVER be a better one
Damn, did Conan walk out to "Police On My Back" by The Clash? Respect.
Conan is the best just let him host the oscars with no restrictions or Ricky gervais
I like Conan and Ricky Gervais.
@@kerrycavanaugh4268 these two could host together
@@roxydzey You are right! Even better.
It’s cray how talented Conan is……..🎉🎉🎉🎉😮❤
I've been waiting for this full video for so long. Conan needs to host everything. Thank you!
Side note: Any chance for when Conan hosted in 2002??
it was online for awhile but Candy Pants LLC should not have uploaded The Late Late Show with Craig Kilbourne
I used to watch this opening over and over again, bong in hand.
It’s fun to see Megan Mullally win and travel back to the time that basically none of knew who Nick Offerman was 🤣🤣
Thank you so much for uploading this!
ConeBone69 LMAO I love Conan
That was the best opening ever made. The Oscars should've offered the Host job to Conan.. it'd actually be entertaining for a change
Just here for conan lol best opening hahaha
Great opening! Love Coco
No one will ever top this man
Conan is a fucking legend. Where is a video of celebrities talking about how legendary Conan is
i cannot believe im actually watching emmy's from nearly 20 years ago. i was 10 back then and didn't even kniw what the emmy's were. the things we do for Conan
Just a reminder how great television used to be...
Anybody else wishes they could go back and watch this on their thick televisions lol
4:30 bruv i did not know Hugh Laurie was in this bit. that house show is a classic. CLASSIC i tell you. still haven’t finished it
Finished it?
Finished it?
OMG WAIT I DIDN'T THAT WAS HIM
I think this is the best time of television.
Host the Oscar's Conan.
Boy I miss Mr Dick Clark, one of the best in entertainment ever. God bless you sir 🤗❤️😊🙏✌️😎
I came here from the office ladies I stayed because it was amazing and got nostalgic because I saw the cast of My Name Is Earl.
😑
What episode was this?
Monorailll, monorailll, monoraill 🎶 What a great musical number by Conan
Conan is the best.
This is literally a live rendition of Conans Monorail episode from the Simpsons haha! 😂😂

Dad, Conan O’Brien won’t come out of the closet!😂😂
that shit was good ahahahha
BEST INTRO EVER
1:59 2020 in a nutshell
The "To Catch A Predator" segment was hilarious
Those shows in the cold open were the good old days of television.
Conan is a legend. Multitalented. He could easily do a brodway play.
I discovered the office because of this opening, of course was a big fan of Conan, use to stay up to watch him in my last year of high school
13:15 haha love he did a number super similar to the monorail simpsons episode he wrote
This man is the GOAT. Then he followed it up with all the cold opens for the comic con shows.
Did I really just watch this in 140p without knowing this higher quality version existed?
Lol more like 50p
Same lol
20:25 this bit killed me lmao
14:13 Guy to the far left taking full advantage of being in the shot. 😆
14:45 Bryan Cranston with his box of Lucky Charms pin. 🍀
If anyone wants to know what 2005 was like, show them this video
I’m so high I just realized I’m watching this for no reason 😂😅
21:04 Genius Conan
That musical number is so god damn conan! Haha
Simply Awesome 👌
haha one of the BEST videos I've ever seen on youtube. that was so fucking funny.
I love how most of them thank their parents..😂
Omg the simpsons toy in the office scene! Haha
Conan is to the Emmys like Billy Crystal is to the Oscar’s.
I'm here because of The Office Ladies Podcast.
same lol
😑
@@giannamasherelli8100 😑
They talked about this show?
@@UmarTahir yes.
10:38 looks like Dave got somebody to watch Alvin And the Chipmunks for the night 😂😂😂
I can't believe I haven't seen this till now
Petition for Conan to host again!
12:34 Love The Music Man parody!
I f*cking love Conan
21:54 they cut off Conan's joke here! I want to know what he was going to say 😅
I think they cut off Conan at minute 22:00. Unless this was edited. Badly.
They cut him , that's was so unprofessional
@@kubernetguy4839 really? that's so cringe I don't want it to be true 😭
@@cherrycreeper indeed its so fucking cringe dont know why they did that, cant believe not many people noticed that in this comment section
Great to see Dick Clark, what an icon
Conan is the GOAT.
Edit: They played that Mary Louise Parker laughing clip for Entourage AND Weeds 37:23 & 37:35
