Red can think what he wants. Obviously he's not a Conan fan. Fair enough.

I watch that clip and I see a comedian having fun. Interacting with the audience. Defying convention. Sure he could come out and shake everyone's hands in the front row. How's that comedic? How's that entertaining?

Conan loves what he does and it clearly shows in his work. He's creative. Original. Unabashed. What you serve as evidence for juvenile, unintellectual comedy, I watch and recount the innumerable ways Conan left us entertained every night. Even when the material wasn't top grade, he found a way to keep me smiling.

That's why (and deservedly so I might add) he's developed a cult like following. But evidently it's not enjoyed by everyone. Fair enough. Enjoy watching Leno. Seriously.
