Just for fun lets see what recognizable names are on Leno this same week:

M: NPH
T: Jenna Fischer, Cloris Leachman, 3 Doors Down
W: Daniel Craig, , Gavin DeGraw
T: Emma Stone, Adam Carolla
F: Dolly Parton
Conan is getting guests similar to the 2nd tier guys, the 12:30 guys. That's not that shocking considering it's a new show, and on cable. I recognized 6 guests for the record.

That being said... I couldn't give a crap about big name guests. Adam Hardwick is a much more interesting and better guest then Dolly Parton.

Conan's problem isn't guests, is that his show just hasn't lived up to what Conan is capable of. He has to push more, he has to get out of the studio and create more. The "it's gooood" Captain America/Entertainment Tonight thing was funny, at first... but you don't need to do it 50 times a show.

I never turned into Late Night with Conan O'Brien because of the guest list.
