I really wish Conan would have Lorne Michaels on the podcast
Thanks conan for having Nemo's dad on the show. 🐠🐟
From Nemo’s dad to lethal gangster in Drive (2011). Gosh what and extremely versatile performer.
Coral!!
Also it’s Hank Scorpio!!
he’s bland and 😴
Conan can never get enough of SNL history 😆
He's part of that, you know.
I googled Albert Brooks to remind myself of his career and learned he's Bob Einstein's brother. How did I never know that?
Had to change his name for obvious reasons.
Rip Super Dave
Eh, what? @@Kaddywompous
@@1970DAH ‘Albert Einstein’
Well, he could have used his middle name and worked as Larry Einstein. Anyway, I didn't know he and Bob were brothers.
I never heard those SNL stories before. Great stuff.
What a legend! Not underrated, but slightly unsung. He made the 70’s a lot funnier than they had any right to be…
It bums me out that there are no Alberto Brooks films on any of Peacock's "complete" episodes of SNL.
The Princess Bride is Meathead's best work IMHO. I have watched it a few times a year for over 30 years now
I think the early era of SNL has been somewhat forgotten, in the wake of the focus turning towards the Not Ready For Prime Time players, but they really were like a repertory company supporting the more recognized names like Brooks, George Carlin, Robert Klein, Buck Henry. I think a couple of major segments of the early shows were those guys doing standup.
Very good interview 👏 👍
Always brilliant in BroadcastNews.👏😄
My brother and i went nuts for STP stickers in the early 70's. I don't know why
Class Acts 🙏✌️
What a yarn by Brooks!
Albert Brooks! God Bless America! I have never listened to anything he has said without laughing my ass off! :)
Marlin and meat head, true talent in that room
I watched "real life" today. bro was so ahead of his time
About the calls did you get my calls lol
❤
Rob Reiner looks great
ITS HANK SCORPIO
Albert Brooks sound like a mix of Jello Biafra and Jesse Ventura
Dang, Shane Gillis got the Albert Brooks treatment lol
Surprising how few Albert Brooks clips are on here. I guess he wasn't a regular guest on any of the talk shows Conan did. I wonder why? Not being snarky, I'm genuinely curious...
I just realized he’s Scorpio
I never did understand why being "live" was so important to Lorne Michaels and the SNL alumni. It's kind of a William Castle style gimmick when you step back and look at it, like "Terrorvision". It doesn't add anything to the viewing audience at home, except maybe a feeling of being included. But they've religiously stuck to it for nearly 50 years.
"I don't see how the thing that made SNL unique was necessary", certainly is a take.
@@raveoreynolds6049 Look, it clearly worked out for them, I just don't understand it.
There's a lot about SNL that doesn't make sense in retrospect, and could be helpfully changed if it wasn't "tradition." Not the "live" part so much as stuff that only worked because it was the 70s and everyone was doing mountains of cocaine. Like the insane production schedule and the vipers pit writers room where they write something like four times the material they can use every week.
watching the fundamental influence Michael O'Donahue (Mr. MIKE) had on SNL get erased over the decades is truly a marvel..
Albert could make a series based in the “defending your life” paradigm. No politics, no religion,(obviously), with a streaming service that will not allow the non-creative to edit his people’s work. Enough mature and capable writers who are fans of his work could make a masterpiece series, absent of cynicism, within that place, with his input. It would be a cultural bookend to “Curb your enthusiasm “, and I would love to bask in its creation.
No religion? Defending Your Life was about your soul going to the place between worlds after you die and having to account for your failures in front of a judge. It was about reincarnation. It was very much a film that had religious connotations.
All I hear is Marlin the clown fish
Someone should ask Chevy Chase or John Belushi's brother to confirm whether Lorne really wanted to build snl around Albert Brooks.
Too bad TBS canceled Albert’s buddy-cop animated sitcom because of one of Conan’s old writers played his partner - Louis C.K.
EXACTLY!!!!!
Does she even know who Ebersol was to laugh so heartily?
She is a bad comedy show ringer.
Of course she does. She worked for Conan when he was fired from the tonight show.
@@mathiasman True- my point still stands
go football?
SNL not funny anymore 😢
Conan's body language throughout this episode shows that he's not comfortable with Albert Brooks the curmudgeon. Even when he's asking Brooks a question, he's partially addressing it to Rob Reiner.
you read body language like a blind man read a book
He's trying to involve both in the conversation, even if the question is directed to Albert.
BORING YADDA YADDA! I didn't think I would see Conan becoming the modern version of Charlie Rose, with the black background and the self-centred approach to interviewing. Long rambling soliloquies, digressions, questions and discussions with boring guests that just aren't funny, or else repetitive and predictable. Hey Conan, get back to doing what you do best, this isn't it.
Albert Brooks = Supreme overrate in American comedy
Bob Einstein was 100 fold funnier.
learn how to write first
I want you to talk about the lies you were bringing at me. Illegitimate children and false narratives.
I do not forgive you
Sona's FAKE a hundred and tweeeenty f**** seconds long laugh ruins every video, thats why i dont watch Conan anymore!!!
these guys ain’t funny woof
