    Did anybody watch him on Monday? I've been laughing to myself all week over it. His whole appearance was unreal. The following supremely long-winded joke was just the tip of the iceberg.

    Oh man, I missed it. Hopefully it's still on my DVR.

    Watching it off my DVR right now. The 2 segments with him are hilarious. He's messing with the next guest (guy from that old show Wings) right now. I'm laughing my ass off.

    Norm makes ruining a show an art form.

    It reminded me of the Roast of Bob Saget. Sometimes Norm just makes up his mind to not make conventional jokes and screw with the audience's expectations, and it's awesome to watch.

    Gotta give props to Conan. Most hosts are too much of a control freak to allow someone to completely mess up their plan, but he realizes how funny it always is.

    Church looked about ready to hit him by the end.

    Side note: The Tonight Show has been pimping "All About Steve" for weeks. They've had everyone on the cast, the best boy, the key grip, the assistant to the location scout and all of the caterers on the show so far. "All About Steve" is currently pulling down a solid 5% overall rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
