Ted Turner Returns To 'Conan': Will Forte Does Bad Improv On Top Of Stuffed Buffalo (VIDEO)


First Posted: 01/19/11 03:34 PM ET Updated: 05/25/11 07:25 PM ET

"SNL" alum Will Forte reprised his role as TBS founder Ted Turner on 'Conan' Tuesday night, riding in on his stuffed Buffalo Teddy Jr. to give Conan his usual berating.

"I will not sit here and watch my legacy of kick boxer movie marathons and 'Hanging With Mr. Cooper' re-runs be destroyed," Turner said atop his prized Buffalo.

When he wasn't calling Conan things like "freckled fallopian tube" or telling him to "shut your tater shaft," Turner talked about the improv shows he and Teddy Jr. have been doing at Indian casinos.

Watch the clip below to see Turner show off his bad improv with Conan, and have things go even worse when he encounters a serious mustache malfunction. We can't wait for his next disgruntled appearance.

With the sassy irreverence as a cantankerous, ornery maverick who despises Conan for no rational reasons....this sketch and character..is hilarious..irreverent, and one of the funniest bits I've seen on late night television in quite some time.

I love Conan skits that are given a bizarre twist. Here, it was the improv thing.

I could watch Will Forte scream at Conan O'Brien every day. Funny stuff, especially the parts mocking TBS' beginnings.
