Conan VS Leno: The Translated Late Night Wars

[NathanF76]

Conan should have turned into the Flaming C.

[zhenfan2]

Hey Captain, you need to translate this to English too, it's really funny too, and started the Conan's "fight" with NMA drama

[zhenfan2]

I will post a video response

[KaiserJames]

Mr. Lennon and Mr. Coco huh? ;)

[sfeagle90]

 translation sucks

[paigequeen]

這英文翻譯也太爛

[captainxenu]

@paigequeen I'm totally going to assume that this is positive!

[paigequeen]

@captainxenu 有些"留洋"的英文好不到哪去 可是會在文章中放髒話 我們也接受這個事實。

[MewmewZoey1995]

Its funny becuase its three-d. But its Jay Leno not Lenon. And nobody turned into super heros which is funnier.

[69erMiguel]

Is this real or was this satire made up by Conan?

[Jenni4Design]

this is hilarious

[ngarcia103]

I'm a big fan of Leno, but I don't know who Lennon is.

[DawnScholar]

I like this interpretation the bad translations make it that much funnier.

[YouWeirdTube]

nice work on the translations: i've sent you some of the other originals, including the English Language Version from my channel. Also if you enjoy the NextMedia Appleaction Animated News Reports, I upload about one or two a week on all topics.

Conan VS Leno: The Translated Late Night Wars

[hannahzellers]

Best translation ever.

[IbnFawzi]

lol. Sarcasm is often lost on the simple people.

[BlueTeamTV]

great video!

[CoolGuy95ya]

WTF lol

[mariahMgreer]

Mr Coco? Lennon? Letter Man? James Kimble?...

[MarthaMyDear64]

LOL! I was wondering the same!

[Jakester32625]

lennon? leno

[flydow]

this translation is completely bullshit, do you even know chinese? way to go manipulating audiences who didnt understand. get a life.

[captainxenu]

What time is your coronation for King Jackass of the Internet?

Read the fucking more info you moron, as it clearly states in an update bit that it is a comedy piece and isn't serious, and then goes on to point out that I pity idiots like you who don't understand that.

[hempgru4]

@captainxenu hahahaha genius reply :D

[fandango83]

hey, i just read the poster's profile. It says that he pities you. Just an FYI. Don't kill the messenger.

[utecougar]

@flydow Isn't it funny how people who have time to waste bitching about things like this always tell others to "Get a life"? I thought the whole thing, including the translation, was hilarious. And forget the Chinese--do you even know correct English?

[Hitlerrrchan]

chinese people are so stupid. i mean taiwanese lol

[JosephDanielsTC7R]

WTF

[RicanProductionz]

as soon as the video started, and i heard the asian lady talk, i literally said "what the eff!" and then scrolled down and saw ur comment! haha nice

[Cargando321]

same with your comment haha

[RicanProductionz]

lol

[Fernt]

Something about conan on 30 rock? I missed that guest spot.

[captainxenu]

Nah, the part in the video is most likely about the money settlement. In the original video, you see the number 30 in the subtitles, so I just thought i'd throw in 30 Rock for the hell of it so it makes even less sense.

[Fernt]

That's too bad! What's even worse is he'll probably never be on 30 rock again.

[isokessu]

LoL

[purpleravenstar]

Something tells me that this is the extended version, very different from the one shown on Hulu....:S

[captainxenu]

Seeing as I can't access alot of content from Hulu, i'm guessing that the video shown there is just the bit from what Conan had on his show. If so, then yeah, they cut out a bit.

[jonahbooc]

hahahah thats some wierdly funny re-enactment

[eunicron]

Letterman running in swinging a steel chair made me LOL.

[CutieReviews]

Conan kicks ass, Ill miss the show

[Fitzcard]

Conan should go to Comedy Cental

Conan uncensord and unleashed

[Fitzcard]

I used to wait up to watch Conan all the time.

Well, 8-10 years ago... gave up on late night for a while.

Buuuut, been watching Craig Ferguson for the last few years.

[MultiKdizzle]

Glad the Japanese understand our plight on their own terms

[ElleMao]

It's Taiwanese you asswipe. Can't you read English motherfucker?

[Srslol]

Theyr chinese.

[Smashing9882]

these guys are really fucced up

[lobelia2]

who the fuck is lennon?

[yaywhewclips242]

I nearly peed my pants when I saw this in bits, now it's complete!! "Mr. Lennon and Coco??"

[Jee659]

I LOVE CONAN O'BRIEN!

He's just so funny *.*

[draxcir]

LMAO

[mgeldis84]

Oh now it makes sense, I get :(

[Abcdeepdeepdish]

I love the BAPE sweatshirts at 1:28.

[fuzzybunny15]

i understand what they are saying

[royaljuice]

This translation reminds me of the Newsradio episode where Mr. James has his book translated back into English from Japanese. Super karate monkey death car!

[papalique]

I like how Anime characters never look asian even though they're supposed to be, and yet all the North Americans in this animation look Asian.

[bigheadrhino]

Anime comes from Japan

[papalique]

That wasn't my point. brah.

[SGbranz]

@bigheadrhino but cartoons dont.

[jorel845]

I applaud your effort but this is more of a transliteration than translation, e.g. using "evening" for "tonight."

[N1ntenOwned]

lol, hulk :P

[lerxt42]

axe the pair of em..Jimmy Fallon's a million times funnier

[lchen024]

@lerxt42 Jimmy Fallon should get kicked off, he blows! Only people with no sense of humor watches fallon!

[Ozzie2368]

LMFAO, I laughed harder at this than at any video in a looooong time. Definite favorite.

[geroldkid]

-_O Eh?

Cute, but not funny.

[lukychmz]

someone needs to go learn english... or find a good translator cause they fucked that story up real bad

[SLDPotato]

That made only slightly more sense than the original.

[mmmmmvodka]

It all makes sense now!!! @_@

[thevegasrenegades]

wtfuc?

[dark2200]

@_@ I am more confused then I ever was before

[PropheticVoice7]

ROFL nice!!!!!!

[bonoyeah]

"until mr.coco didnt want happening

he got angry and become Hulk"

loool

[klopecdi]

TheGreatGonzoMan: Nah, they are actually saying "Leno..." it was just mistranslated into English :)

captainxenu: I think you meant to say this clip was in Chinese! As you know, both Chinese and Taiwanese are spoken in Taiwan :)

[y7bbb6]

lol yeah bad translation but thanks for posting!

[zrussell7]

has anyone heard of this guy?

/watch?v=8UcFO9OEd-U

[chowdhurymandela]

how the fuck are they beating us?

[TheGreatGonzoMan]

I think they meant Lenin.... according the the US they're both communists though... so we get it... Leno is a commie.

[lvl9001Troll]

ohhhhh now i get it

[GayaPapaya]

The Leno and Mr. Zucker ARE teh mean!

[supermanx8]

Bad Translation. But Funny.

[hunisbeast]

ubermensch haha are you russian or something

[dcshutter019]

epic win!

[wyldeslash2003]

yup..this is pretty much exactly what happened...

[flyskyairflair]

THIS IS EPIC HAHAHAHAHA

[Treg]

what.. the... fuck? Why just why?

[rockbass]

wth was that

[ThePhotoshopGuy1]

that's pretty good animation...there had to be more people that worked on this than just a tv station

[tryceo]

WTF????

[Clazzy8]

Lol james kimble? Jimmy kimmel.

[bkakaak47]

johnathan ross is way funnier than these two

[pantslesswrock]

AMAZING.

[JongJT]

so leno lost his show to conan, got pissed and wanted it back, then everybody were fighting each other?

[BringbackSWATcats]

The Hell?

[CHRISTOPHER343434]

if conan go on fox no one will watch it

[lettyronehelpyou]

Subscribe for prank calls!

[santosbl01]

Now I get it!

[retepatulp]

yeah..that's what happened

[LegendAmongRebels]

Now it all makes sense............

[baraclude]

"unfortunately the clip was in Taiwanese."

made in taiwan definitely. But define taiwanese lol/

[captainxenu]

I have no idea, for some reason, I just wrote that. I think their native language is Mandarin, but i'm not sure about that. Still, Taiwanese sounds funnier. :P

[ZachDesu]

It is Mandarin. :P

On another note, this makes no sense, but pretty funny.

看来台湾人这么爱西方。。。

[jdgator95]

Mr. Lennon???

[jdgator95]

Was the 3D cheesiness really neccesarry ?

[carpenteraaa11]

Team COCO

[karenhamway1970]

CUM C Y COCO LUVS MY VIDS!

[CHRISTOPHER343434]

george lopez is the best

[GetPoints2Shop]

george lopez is rubbish, he just makes fun of white people while reminding everyone hes mexican.

[cthunder1000]

george lopez sucks,an embarrassment to mexicans everywhere. HE IS NOT FUNNY!!

[Exiio]

There has been an english voice translation from the same people who made this commercial online.

[captainxenu]

Yeah, but it just isn't funny.

[andre8660242]

ching chong ching chong ching chong

[KyWRC]

the animation is pretty cool, but the translation is terrible... lol

[rdrakken]

mr lennon?!?!?

ah hell, I cant blame them...I dont get this war either. Conans ratings suck donkey dick, leno's didnt when he was in that time slot.

Your ratings suck? you get taken off the air...deal with it.

[BlacKiddX]

Actually Jay's sucked. get your shit right.

[nwfilmschool]

Coco had a far more desirable demographic, though. Younger people have a greater lifetime value to the advertiser.

[rdrakken]

@nwfilmschool NO, just NO.

There isnt an advertiser on the planet that would pass up a show with over 4 million viewers for a show with around half that just because its a younger audience...unless its a freaking lucky charms comerical.

[IngazZagni]

Yeah but Leno had great lead in's to boost his ratings. Conan has Leno as a lead in who is doing terrible prime time numbers. Also it took at least 3 years for Leno to get to an acceptable level in the ratings, Conan didn't get that chance.

[rdrakken]

Interesting seeing as how Nelson ratings had Leno leading the 11:30 spot from day 1 and that his lead in...is the SAME lead in as Conans...local news.

stop making excuses.

Conan had his own damn show AND following before taking over...Leno did NOT.

[captainxenu]

Uh, the news is not the lead-in... whatever is before the news is the lead-in... therefore, it was the Jay Leno show.

Leno had shows like Law and Order and other quality dramas bringing in the viewers when he was in his first run, and now he will have something similar instead of a show featuring an untalented hack of a comedians shit.

And Leno was the permanent guest host on Mondays for Carson for about 5 years. Leno had more than enough exposure when he took the gig.

[rdrakken]

Wait you think Law and Order is a quality show AND you think Leno had better lead ins when he was in Conans slot yet those same shows do not apply to Conan now that he is in that slot?!?

Go away dude, you are not thinking clear of this matter. I dont like Leno OR Conan which is why i can put it in its proper perspective.

Conan has shit ratings the time slot, Leno did NOT when he was there and should never have been forced out of it.

[IngazZagni]

Whether L&O is a good show or not, it got great ratings in the 10pm slot which acted as a lead in for 11.30. Conan has Jay in the 10pm slot, not much of a lead in.

[djacobox372]

The tonight shows ratings tanked far worse when leno took over for carson; it took more then a year for them to regain the top slot again.

And that was without the previous host putting on his own show earlier in the night.

[IngazZagni]

That's correct. In fact it took 3 years for Jay to get the number one spot. His ratings where terrible for the first year or two.

[rdrakken]

@djacobox372 According to nelson ratings the Tonight show with Jay Leno averaged just over 3 million viewers during its first year.

Only Conans final episode topped that...so stop making bogus arguments please.

[timrawr]

Letterman dominated the ratings when the Late Show began in 1993. It took Leno 2 years to pull back ahead.

[IngazZagni]

Actually Leno was second in the ratings for his first 3 years as host, he became number one after the infamous Hugh Grant incident in 1995 which there was a lot of controversy over and he managed to hold on to a lot of the extra viewers that watched that night and slowly built up over time.

Nielson trends always shows that late night ratings are influenced by how many people watch in prime time, ie, before the late local news. Jay had proper shows like Law%Order but Conan had, well Jay....tbc

[IngazZagni]

Another interesting fact is that Conan has always beat Letterman in the key 18-49 demo which is what most networks's want. Lettterman however owned Conan in the 50+ demo.

[rdrakken]

Amazing how "most" networks want it yet not one of them program for it...

Arsenio Hall dominated that demographic in the mid 90s and had almost 3x the viewers Conan had yet was still taken off the air.

So your argument holds no water.

[IngazZagni]

For Networks yes, but many cable stations do.  They get much higher ad revenue from younger audiences.

The Arsenio Hall Show was syndicated, much different story. I don't know where you got his ratings from so I can't comment on that. I see you ignored my other points though. :)

[NinjaBob23]

james kimble LOL

[anduhhroo]

WE WANT COCO

[wright0340]

*head explode*

[mabelle781]

mr. lennon hahaha

[LiquidFriction]

lol taiwan news is on some serious drugs. .they actually even made a animation for this crap? lol they even called conan co co XD

[kettuilija]

there is seriously something wrong in taiwan news...

[sactown96]

Or you could go fuck yourself you fucking piece of shit spammer.

[skunktheshrink]

i never really liked the late night show untill Conan started hosting it.

[TheCyoruk]

nbc's loss.. not my problem!!

[baswee022378]

that just blew my freaking mind

[evanom2]

Wow, reading the subtitles left me even more confused than if i would have tried understand the speaker.

[martic1280]

Why is Leno popular? He isnt funny at all... his jokes just suck

conan use to be one of the funniest people i knew but even he is starting to just become a Jay Leno corny joker

[khmer2thebone]

WTF

[cshargeit]

this is the new zapruder tape. classic. very valuable.

[8aetroya8]

that haven't realized that people, the masses are moving over to pure internet entertainment? tv is getting left behind. Leno can't stop the tides. People don't care about late night tv anymore. They still watch sitcoms and other tv series but not late night tv. It's dead.

[Aggibale]

lmao. that was funny

[KryssySushi]

XD so funny

[FreshZerglings]

the interputation is wrong. Leno agreed to move to 10 pm a four years ago and NBC promised Conen that he would host the tonight show after Leno moves in 4 years. 4 years past, Leno moved and created the Jay Leno show and Conen got the Tonight Show (His dream job). However the ratings weren't good for either host so NBC decided to move the shows back and Conen got pissed cuz NBC promised him the job at the Tonight show and he have waited so long for it

[ohnoyoudidntx]

You translated wrong...u mean LENO..not LENNON

[tmanxxxx]

i can't believe mr. lennon first broke up the beatles then he stole mr. coco's tonight show!

[amplex1337]

this will go down in history as one of the worst mistakes nbc made. conan is the face of the tonight show for the new generation (never liked leno), for anyone who grew up watching the late show, he's always been one of the funniest guys on tv. he shares my weird/random sense of humor, and i cant wait til he gets a new show, hope andy richter stays too !!!

[OneYearMovieProject]

Hey YouTube! I am making a NEW MOVIE EVERY DAY! Movie 100 is OUT!

[nslsmith]

wow - yeah Coco forever (he is one with god)

Leno never again!

[bh3ader]

bad translation

[0prahTV]

Fuck Leno and NBC

Bless Conan and Kimmel

[80spodcastchannel]

what the hell waz that??

[lunchboxxy]

haha mr. coco

[NathanROFL]

LOL this is HILARIOUS.

[eb3fan]

Leno sucks

Conan is the best evar

EVAR

[seifukusha]

didnt know they watch us late night in taiwan, very cool

[Riceyo8]

ahahahha this is funny and all...but LENNON. c'mon now. Can't confuse Lennon with Leno.

[captainxenu]

At what point did you fail to realise I did it on freaking purpose?

[Riceyo8]

hahaha i didn't realize at all that you did it on purpose because I don't see the connection. Lol my bad relax.
