Good riddance to bad rubbish. You get bad ratings, you get canceled. See ya hopefully never again.

He used the popularity of his show and the funny side of its ethnic slant to propel himself into a venue where his true hatred for us Gringos in America could be fully vented. He is a Razist plain and simple and he wants the destruction of traditional America, just like Obama.

His notariety and the benefits drawn therefrom have long eclipsed any honesty this man had. He would starve in Mexico left to his own devices - to prosper he has to get self-hating whites and razist 'latinos' here in America to laugh at his razism.

PMSNBC will need a reliable lefty minority to replace Rev Bullhorn, after they discover he can’t read.

Enjoy, though after I posted it, I thought the "black hole of funny" should have been "black hole of humor" to avoid using "funny" twice!

I always think of better ways to say things after I post.

Yeah, this is great. Now I don’t have to dread the 9 nano-seconds he’s on my channel #3 before the cable & DVD connect in when turning the tube on at bedtime. God, how I hated that hearing his voice over the last years.

“Good, now they can cancel Conan.”

Stand by. Lopez was doing a .3. Conan is doing a .4 — with a significantly more expensive show.

Rumor is Conan writers are calling their agents today, worried sick. They should be.

It’ll be interesting to see if Lopez blames the network for his demise, or if he starts trashing Conan. Lopez publicly endorsed — at TBS gunpoint — to give up his earlier (and better rated) time slot to make way for Conan.

Fun times!

Both his wife and daughter on that show were smoking hot.

No doubt. And it seems neither of them have had much for acting careers since, at least not on TV.

The rascist in this is Lopez.

His mother on the show was a hoot.

Yea. It was interesting how they never let the character ever really redeem herself. She was a rotten mother, a drunk, a tramp, and a crook to the end. But still likable.

Good point, bcsco.

I thought of adding Steve Allen to my original post, but left him out because Steve seemed more comedian that host. His impromptu Hat Gags and ‘Man In The Street’ interviews are classics.

He was actually the first host of The Tonight Show, and later had his own Steve Allen Show where the ‘street’ interviews began in earnest. I remember him having a Kewpie doll or something he’d squeeze. Great comedy.

Conan the Barbarian. The Movie comes out this week.

Oops, wrong Conan.

Conan the Borelameian. His show really sucks and should be put out of its misery.
