The funniest bit Conan ever did as an award show host

Newhart is so gold too his little reactions kill me

Like he had no idea what he signed up for lol

Incredible selling by Newhart. An incredible worker.

For real, subtle and perfect

I still remember this bit and is the holy grail of “gimmicks to keep the show on time”.

So so good. Looking forward to his Oscar gig.

Shame they didn't close with the In Memoriam reel at T minus 3 minutes

Oh man 😂

The bit when they let Newhart out of the box and Conan is like “52% of viewers said they wanted you to live.” Newhart says “so 48% wanted me to die?” Conan says “no only 42% wanted you to die, 6% said they had no opinion.” Newhart says “so 6% called in to say they didn’t care?”

So that's how Bob Newhart died. 💔

The truth comes out.

Newhart was an absolute gem. Excellent comedic timing.

He really was. Solid even at that age.

Actually it is funny because of Bob Newhart's reactions.

Of course, the bit only works with the right performers

Yeah, a real comedy and Emmy Awards gold, 🤣🤣 it was long time ago, i guess, at least 20 years. still make people laugh their heads off.

This bit was way more recent.

It's probably Conan's writers' joke, but no one can sell a bit like Bob Newhart.

@tylergilfoster Bob sells this so perfectly, too, what an icon.

Hey, he copied when they had that charity countdown with Nate Bargatze!

Newhart was the absolute pinnacle of deadpan comedy. The way he masterfully mixed physical reactions with his amazing delivery and timing, just unbelievable. I feel pretty confident saying that there will ever be another like him.

Lmao

😂

LMFAO!

I thought the account gig with Kareem was pretty funny too.

hi bob

You're 'Right', Todd Spence. 'That' was 'Hysterrical'!!! 😀😃😃👍👍👍👍 P.S. I think I remember that at 'That time', the 'Great Insult Comedian Don Rickles' phoned in, and, said, 'Oh please, let the Award show go OVER, just by One Second. I want to see what happens!!!' 😃😄
