Conan's STAR TREK

Re: Conan's TREK jabs...continue

Its a simple gag that relies on stereotypes. Nearly all late night comedian jokes do this, and, like this one, are usually pretty funny.

Ummm...really?? It got the biggest laugh of the night; heck even I laughed. Why do you think BIG BANG theory is the hit it is? Its funny!!!

Like it or not, that image is out there of TREK fans...and so what? Even if it is true? Its part of our culture and it is funny.

Rob

Uh...yeah. That was my point...

Looks like there was a mis-communication there.

No, no, none of that now. There must be war. Get on with it.

Flame. Flame. Flame. Something about a mother. Flame. Flame. Obscure reference insult. Flame. Swear word.

I thought it was pretty funny. It's an easy joke, but he makes it work with his delivery. Very few comedians have as a strong a sense of comedic timing as he does.
 
Re: Conan's TREK jabs...continue

With his ratings I don't think we have to worry very much about him hurting the image of ST fans. Now that David Letterman. I bet people are really watching him. ... His wife. ... Her private detective. ... Husbands and boyfriends of all the women on his staff. ... Yep. Watching him close they are. :devil:

Didn't hurt any when Shatner did the infamous SNL skit...


Plus let us not forget appearences by Williams Shatner and George Takei on hte show, including the skit, "Takei: Seeecretsss"

Shatner's SNL appearence is one of the most important events in Star Trek's 'real life' history...

^ Yeah, forget that juror in Trekkies, Shatner's SNL skit was the beginning of the end for Trek fans... :(

Ummm...I think Shatner's SNL skit was great. I was a fan back in the 70s, and 80s. I went to many conventions and I hate to say it? He was right..and still is. Some of these fan sites, not TREKBBS of course (wink wink) have some very, how shall I put it, interesting people on them who claim to be fans....

Conan..Oct 6th

"parents in Europe will be allowed to name their child Q, in tribute to their favorite character on STAR TREK. What is more amazing is that two Star trek fans actually had sex.."..

Big laugh from the crowd..and funny!!!

I don't see the need to start a new thread every time Conan makes a Trek joke. I've merged them all together.
