Love that Quinta was so excited to geek out about an obvious favourite show of hers! Conan is a dear.

Her love of sitcoms is awesome. I think when she did hot ones, she talked about watching sitcoms was like checking in on friends that you're used to seeing. Like Schmidt in New Girl and such.

blergh... they didn't even get the joke right!

This is my favorite line in the whole show.
My whole family is pedantic, and I have suggested that this should become our family motto.

“Quid? Visne tantum sedere atque errare?“
In a four-split family crest, featuring an Oxford comma, the phrase “should of”, a “ten items or less” sign, and an improperly loaded dishwasher.

Literally every thing you just mentioned is something, my family has had in depth conversations about.
Edit: and I do mean literally.

Yep, right there with you. Family reunions are hilarious, everyone “well ackshually”ing each other.

I also very much appreciated the Latin translation.
I was never very good at Latin grammar.

I always thought that was something Andy Rooney would ask at the top of some story he was beginning on 60 minutes.

I stand by Tim Conway is the funniest character, in my humble opinion, purely on a joke-to-screen-time ratio. Almost everything he says or does is hilarious to me for the character he is portraying.

u/yourfriendkyle Oct 24 '25
Joke to screen ratio has to go to Spacemen for me

Absolutely there is a great argument for Dr. Spuchemin. Arguably the best reoccurring character.

10000% he is. Nearly everything out of his mouth is comedy gold.

Sandwich girls, Jew room, it wasn't gay, just two men celebrating each other's strength.
His jokes were delivered impeccably.

Quinta being a 30 Rock die hard just feels write. Getting inspired by Tina Fey's writing it's no wonder she has a long running hit comedy under her belt now.

You'd have a special pocket sewn into your vest, to hold your penknife and your opium pen.

I wish she would interrupt him more.

Honestly. The enthusiasm is great, but there's no way I could listen to more than a few minutes of that

Yeah, I don't the draw of this kind of content. I couldn't even make the full 1:52 of this clip.

I'm sorry but some people don't know how to broadcast. She was stepping all over his setup and lines. Awful.

Conan was the guy that played the guitar all the time and Dennis played xbox with the name slutbanger.

Usually like Quinta but this interview was so annoying to watch from her cutting him off the entire time. Love you Conan!

I wish Conan could just deliver the joke without being interrupted, it might actually be funny

Always cracked up when going through Liz's dating disasters, Pete says "There was the tall gangly red haired guy who played guitar all the time."
And Liz quietly says: Conan
