We have so much to do tonight,
and even though this is an hour-long show,
it's insane how much we're trying to put into one program.
[Andy] Yeah.
As you can imagine a lot of people want to stop by.
A very good friend of the show,
very, very good friend of our program
wanted to stop by tonight and wish us well.
But unfortunately, he's in Boston filming a movie
and couldn't be here in person.
We said, "Okay, that's too bad."
And he said, "No, no."
It's very important for him to make an appearance.
He really wanted to do it.
So he suggested we do it live over Zoom.
So please now welcome over Zoom from Boston,
our good friend, Will Ferrell.
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
Hey.
Hi, Conan.
Yeah, I'm sorry I can't be there in person.
Like you said, I'm in Boston.
I'm shooting a secret project.
I really wish I could talk about it,
but you know how those things go.
No, Will, I completely understand.
It's "Batman." (audience laughing)
I'm shooting "Batman."
Okay. And guess what?
In this version, Batman gives oral.
[Conan] All right.
(audience laughing)
It's graphic. Okay, Will...
Full frontal. Will,
(audience laughing)
that's a lot more than we need to know, okay.
Batman like you've never seen him before.
(audience laughing) All right, okay, okay.
Well, anyway, I'm happy for you.
Listen, I wanted to wish you all the best
as you end an incredible run on "Conan."
I'm truly excited to see what comes next.
Well, God, thank you, Will.
You've always been such an amazing friend to my show.
Yes, about that. (audience laughing)
You know, I was there for your final "Late Night" show
and your last "Tonight Show" episode and now this one.
Yeah, that's true.
It's kinda become a tradition.
I'll tell you what it is.
It's fucking exhausting. (audience laughing)
Okay, and I love you Conan, but I mean if you don't mind,
could I just pre-tape a few goodbyes
and you can just use them whenever, you know,
your next several shows flame out?
(audience laughing)
You know, just have that in the library.
Yeah, sure, I guess.
Yeah, that's cool, thank you, yeah.
We can just get out of the way.
[Conan] All right, yeah, okay.
Would you like me to slate?
Yeah, that'd be great, sure, yeah.
This is Will Ferrell,
a string of Conan talk show goodbyes.
(Will claps hands together) (audience laughing)
(Conan laughing)
Hey Conan, congratulations on an outstanding run
on your HBO Max show. (audience laughing)
Some people will say six episodes isn't a lot,
but you packed enough entertainment in them
(audience laughing) for eight episodes.
You really did.
That's great. Conan, it's me, Will.
I'm on the set of my "Batman" sequel,
and I wanted to say, we all deeply miss
your late night talk show on Al-Jazeera network
(speaking in foreign language) with Conan O'Brien.
Sorry to hear about the fatwa, buddy.
(audience exclaiming) Stay safe.
Thank you, thank you very much.
Okay, hold on. Oh, there's more.
When I heard MTV3 was looking for a host
of their new reality show,
"Videos of People Dry Humping in Trucks,"
(audience laughing) (Conan cackling)
you were the first name that popped into my head.
Here we are 12 seasons later
(audience laughing) What a run.
I don't know how the next host
will be able to fill your shoes,
but good luck, Logan Paul, Jr. (audience laughing)
Okay, are you about done now, Will?
That's about it, right?
Oh, I wish we were. (audience laughing)
Hey Conan, I am truly going to miss
your Delta in-flight talk show,
"Wheels Up with Conan O'Brien."
Available on select flights from Atlanta to Tampa.
That's great.
Well, thank you very much.
Hey there, Conan.
YouTube won't be the same
without your classic unboxing videos.
(audience laughing) (Conan laughing)
You add a sense of reverence and wit to such episodes as,
KitchenAid Serrated Bread Knife
(audience laughing) (Conan laughing)
and Sony XPS 8300 VGX Adapter.
Well, okay, Will, very much thanks.
That's probably enough.
Just a couple more to be safe.
(audience laughing) (Conan laughing)
Conan, I thought your reality competition show,
"Celebrity Room Temperature Oyster Eating Contest"
(audience laughing) would run forever,
but then your show was tragically cut down in it's prime
by an explosive diarrhea outbreak.
Who could have predicted it?
Yeah. Everyone, apparently.
Conan, I've seen the footage and it was horrifying.
"Variety" called it, Sunday, muddy Sunday.
(audience laughing) (Conan laughing)
Because instead of blood, it was diarrhea.
Diarrhea, yeah. But it was still deadly.
Yeah, a lot of people died. Uh-huh.
Not just from dysentery.
Ken Jeong drowned. Okay.
(audience laughing)
Yeah, he drowned in a river of diarrhea.
They had to shut down that whole sound stage forever.
It's just a big pile of deodorizing sand now.
Yeah, all right, all right.
Thank you, Will, that was fantastic.
I'm not done, shut up! (audience laughing)
Finally, congratulations
on filling Joy Behar's chair on "The View."
I'm sorry the show ended, again,
because of an explosive diarrhea outbreak.
(audience laughing) Okay. (laughs)
Will, that was very emotional.
Thank you very much.
That was a very emotional series of sendoffs.
Thank you, sir.
♪ The long and winding road ♪ (Conan laughing)
You don't have the money to pay for that, I know.
I know, the minute you started to sing that,
I knew we couldn't afford it, yeah, yeah.
♪ A long ♪ (audience laughing)
There you go, thank you very much.
Will, thank you and God bless you for all you've done
for us over the years.
You're a great man. (audience cheering)
Thanks, buddy.
I'll see you at the premiere for "Batman," my "Batman."
(audience applauding) (Conan laughing)
Hey, one more time for Will Ferrell!
