Colbert Surprises Conan With An Invisible String Dance-Off

thumbnail icon: Colbert Surprises Conan With An Invisible String Dance-Off

Last night's Conan was so good there will be two posts about it today (there was another Very Special Surprise Guest), but first: after Stephen Colbert announced on his show that he had stolen the invisible strings Conan uses to do his signature dance (that's sweeping the country), "evil" Stephen interrupts Conan's monologue for a "surprise" invisible-string dance off.

It's so cute when menschy late night comedians are friends who pretend to fight.

you can watch this show for years and still be continually shocked whenever Conan stands up next to someone of average height.

Colbert is a tiny tiny man next to Conan.

Too bad they didn't have a dance-off, a la Colbert and Rain

Well technically Colbert isn't a "late night" comedian. But yes, cute.

Colbert is whatever kind of comedian he wants to be. Character, political, late-night, musical, he can do it all.

Was that "correction" really worth the comment John? I think someone needs to take a long look in the douchebag mirror. This was only a small piece of douchbaggery evidence but I'm willing to jump to conclusions.

I can't decide if this is a happy day or a sad day for American Irish-Catholics...

How sad...all of this Conan/Colbert fun will come to an end after this week. They should have one more epic battle before Conan leaves for the Best Coast.
