[QUOTE="jeffsw6, post: 202, member: 14"] I'm a ''Conan'' fan. I'm sure many others are as well. I imagine he really does have a smaller budget with TBS than NBC, as the set is not quite as fancy as the major-network late night shows, etc. I particularly enjoy the ''guest band'' part of the show. I often think the lighting sucks, though. They seem to have similar fixtures in basically similar quantity for all the bands I've watched on the show so far. I figured, well, it's not a major network show, and there must be some limits to the work they are willing to put into lighting design for a four minute segment of an hour-long show. Well, Cheap Trick was on last night. IMO their performance was far more visually impressive than any of the other groups. I wonder if they brought their own LD or asked for the Conan show to give the local LD some overtime or whatever? +1 to Cheap Trick for making it look good. I'm not going to comment on the audio. I'm not a home theater guy, and all music sounds pretty bland through the speakers in my TV. Might as well be listening to Cheap Trick through a Bose L1. I'm sorry I missed Saving Abel on Lopez. I bet that was neat. [/QUOTE]
