Conan Imagines If 'Oprah's Favorite Things' Were Bees (VIDEO)


First Posted: 11/24/10 02:28 PM ET Updated: 05/25/11 07:15 PM ET

Since this year marks the final edition of "Oprah's Favorite Things," the queen of daytime TV went all out, sending two days' worth of audience members home with cars, jewels and thousands of dollars in other top-notch prizes. Last night Conan O'Brien imagined if Oprah had given out just one more prize, although it's definitely not as enticing as a new car or diamond earrings. What if Oprah simply gave out hundreds of thousands of angry bees? As you'll see in this hilarious vision below, her audience's reactions would pretty much remain the same.

I figured on her final show Oprah would hunt audience members for sport... she's the most powerful person in showbiz. She can do whatever she wants. ;-)

I know that this is probably blasphemy among liberals, but I just don't find Conan O'whatever all that funny. I have seen several of his shows and managed to sit through almost all of them without even chuckling. Lets just say i watch stewart, tivo colbert, and don't even bother with conan anymore.

There is no need for you to apologize. Some people love faking it. Some people are so used to faking a laugh at sub mediocre comedy that it becomes the only way to smile. Once again there is no need to apologize for your lack of understanding of true humor.

I have never been a Conan fan; but just the headline of IF one of Oprah's favorite things being 'bees' is too funny to imagine.

she should give out more interesting prizes...

example:

"EVERYONE GETS FLU SHOTS!!!!"

"..My newest favorite thing...is Sizzurp!!!!"

"..I just love this product, I've been using it for years and now I want to share it with you...ASIAN SLAVES! YOU GET AN ASIAN SLAVE, AND YOU GET AN ASIAN SLAVE!"

"I was just turned onto my next favorite thing by my friend Gayle, its Herpes Simplex 1!!!!!!"

"....you are all getting...10,000 DOLLAR GIFT CARDS TO THE BASS PRO FISHING SHOP!!!!"

any other ideas?
