Yeah, one thing about Conan that I greatly respect, after losing the Tonight Show, all of that Leno mess, etc., he COULD have become greatly embittered and walk around with a huge chip on his shoulder. But instead, he's seems to be a peace and enjoy where he is - and grateful for it. He also doesn't do the mean-spirited, cheap shot stuff that so many others are known for.
You can't underestimate chemistry with the characters. They all seemed to have good chemistry with each other and iit made for a historical (& hysterical) program.
In the movie "When Harry Met Sally" the older lady in the diner that says "I'll have what she's having" was Carl Reiners wife, they were married 64 years. He will always be Rob Reiner's Dad to me. Love them both.
It might be appealing to the older demographic (of which there are many). It's good business sense to see how it plays with advertising. On the other hand, appearances like this is a history lesson to his normal crowd. I found it interesting as it gave insight into the life of a writer in the 70's.
I need more serious jibba jabba or w/e the hell it was. Really liked hearing Conan's questions and the way he interviewed people. It had a very nice style to it.
Conan needs to seriously bring Clint Eastwood on the show! Now THAT would be an amazing interview!! A legend in the movies and as a director!! Please make it happen Conan!!
Jesus H. Christ, he looks PHENOMENAL! Carl Reiner is NINETY ONE! He must have had some work done...Maybe I'm cynical, but I think I'm just realistic. Then again, maybe there was an eternal life potion on the Mary Tyler Moore Show....look at Mary! She's 76 and looks amazing too!
Not bad for 91. His old comedy partner, Mel Brooks, is still no slouch in interviews at age 87 ...and is still doing film and theater projects I think.
I love Carl Reiner, what a mensch. Not a huge fan of the Dick Van Dyke show though I do love Mary Tyler Moore and have great respect for Van Dyke, but Carl I've always liked as a performer and a "man behind the scenes." Remember he was Steve Martin's go-to director for most of his classic flicks. "The Jerk," "The Man With Two Brains," and "All of Me," amongst others.
You never interrupt someone Carl's age when they are telling a story. That's taboo in my family. This is a legend; shut your mouth and listen to the man.
True, I can only hope. Thing is, Clint has been on Ellen NUMEROUS times in recent years..... and just for the record, I'll say that Ellen isn't a better show than Conan. For those who seem to disagree, please excuse my prejudice. But, let's just hope that one day Clint will come on the show, show his badass skills, and walk away with a cigar in his mouth.
Is there anyone else out there that could never watch Conan? When you watch Johnny or Jay, there's a sparkle in their eyes as they do the show. Conan.....nothing. He's basically phoning it in. Carl Reiner?....brilliant.
RIP Carl. You made the world a happier place.
Awesome chemistry between the two. They both have respect for each other and can mutually joke and laugh.

philipatoz Well, NBC gave him $33 million to go away. I'm sure that eased the pain a little.
@@watchman1178 He payed his staffs.
@@nandhanakrishnan.r4279 ??? That was a settlement between NBC and Conan. And NBC paid the Tonight Show's staff; Conan didn't have to pay them.
all those old sketch shows were golden.

Pretty fit for a 91-year old.
You caaan't find this movie with beeeetteeer quality than hereeee => twitter.com/2bb83d44cfc2f75be/status/824454327938854913
Best move ever; the casting of Mary Tyler Moore !
In the movie "When Harry Met Sally" the older lady in the diner that says "I'll have what she's having" was Carl Reiners wife, they were married 64 years. He will always be Rob Reiner's Dad to me. Love them both.
MTM not only had great gams, she survived the claw!
Jesus... he's 91. That's amazing!
of course she had 'great gams'....that was all we ever saw of her when she was the receptionist/secretary on Peter Gunn!
this dude is a legend
kinda good to see Conan have guests that aren't "in the now"
wow he was born on 1922...he probably witnessed a lot throughout his lifetime.
This man's mind is clear as crystal.
dude looks great for 91
Carl Reiner ..as .Alan Brady..was BRILLIANT..

Conan would fit right in , in 1960.
I need more serious jibba jabba or w/e the hell it was.
Really liked hearing Conan's questions and the way he interviewed people. It had a very nice style to it.
I feel like when our generation gets to be this age, we aren't going have stories as cool as his generation.
Conan needs to seriously bring Clint Eastwood on the show!
Now THAT would be an amazing interview!! A legend in the movies and as a director!!
Please make it happen Conan!!
Always loved Carl Reiner.
He's looking very well considering his age! Very encouraging!
Good interview!
carl reiner = legend
A great man.
Jesus H. Christ, he looks PHENOMENAL! Carl Reiner is NINETY ONE! He must have had some work done...Maybe I'm cynical, but I think I'm just realistic. Then again, maybe there was an eternal life potion on the Mary Tyler Moore Show....look at Mary! She's 76 and looks amazing too!
R.I.P. Carl Reiner
RIP Carl. You are missed. Thanks for the laughs.
Carl Reiner. Simply the best.
Not bad for 91. His old comedy partner, Mel Brooks, is still no slouch in interviews at age 87 ...and is still doing film and theater projects I think.
2:48 At first I thought he said "great cans" not gams.
Woah, no no no. Not cans. It's 'great gams' which is slang for great legs.
Could it be great gambs? From Latin, and now Italian... gambas meaning legs
He's charming.
he is doing really good for an 91 year old! :)
Carl Reiner will always be Saul Bloom from the Ocean's Trilogy!
I love the name Laura.
Carl once said that he really lucked out; he found a 23 year old girl who could do comedy. She did indeed.
great story from karl rheibner
Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!

Yes sir!
Saul! we dont get old we get sloppy.
I even like when he has scientists or random interesting people from time to time
When someone is telling a story do not interrupt, Conan.

Lyman Zerga! :D
if google wasnt real, conans guys could have just pulled any old guy from the street , gae him a jacket and come on our show, WE CANT GET ANYBODY.
Saul!
someone please explain what's a gam
An old slang word for legs.
Well if Carl is anything like Alan, then I'm sure he was mostly the one doing those weird things that "were not allowed to do now".
Im immortal
haha
Is there anyone else out there that could never watch Conan? When you watch Johnny or Jay, there's a sparkle in their eyes as they do the show. Conan.....nothing. He's basically phoning it in. Carl Reiner?....brilliant.
SAUL!
Your dad? I bet he is xD
He looks better than his son!
Ha !
You mean "meat-head" ? ;)
Two and a half men....
It must really hurt to be told that you are lousy at playing yourself.
or he could just talk to the seat and pretend he's interviewing Clint, that'd be good too.
No
Carl Reiner is a great guy! How in the world is “Meathead” his son?? Rob Reiner will always be “Meathead” to me! What happened?
