Summary

Johnny Mac reports Conan O’Brien will host the 99th Oscars on March 14, 2027, noting muted social media reaction and quoting Disney TV Group president Craig Erwich praising Conan’s “singular comedic voice.” He discusses a new Strike Force Five podcast where Stephen Colbert reflects on having only a few Late Show episodes left, uncertainty about future plans, and staff needing to vacate offices immediately after the finale; he also recounts guests he’d ban, guests he found attractive, and recent on-air kisses with Jimmy Fallon, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Pedro Pascal. CNN will air a flash doc, “The Last Laugh: Stephen Colbert.” On the Kevin Hart roast, Variety says Michael Che and others dropped out due to scheduling; Che criticizes differences in roast writing and highlights mostly white joke writers, while Lil Rel Howery condemns Tony Hinchcliffe’s George Floyd joke. Johnny’s Comedy Stock Market: buy Tony Hinchcliffe and Ian Karmel, hold Kevin Hart, sell Kam Patterson and Nikki Glaser. He closes with highlights from Flight of the Conchords’ reunion show.
