Late Night with Conan O'Brien

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

"You'd better be as goodasLetterman," they told O'Brien. "Lot of pressure."
Conan O'Brien is the new kid
In American talk shows. Just 30 years old, he was brought in by NBC, with no background in stand-up comedy and no on-screen experience, to take over the Late Night slot left vacant when David Letterman defected to a rival network with much publicity. O'Brien's reputation until now has been as a writer for The Simpsons cartoon series and for Saturday Night Live.
Letterman was a hard act to follow. HowO'Brien succeeded will be evident in the show selected for British screening tonight. His guests are
John Goodman , Drew Barrymore and Tony Randall.
