@@klondike69none85 I don't know why she was so upset, it's a show with B list and almost celebrities at the end of their careers.....what did she expect?
I think we used to have a better judge of intent - as in we were laughing because of the absurdity,, not WITH the absurdity. At some point the general consensus changed to "any joke ABOUT a subject is endorsement of that subject." All this kind of comedy is behind paywalls now.
Syd's right ..I agree with him 100% .. youre going to need a serious incentive to bring this comedy back to the States ...like the "good life" instead of "the struggle"... I mean it wasnt really valued when it was living its highlight in US while it thrives in other countries where people actually value it .instead of considering it to be "criminal element" of society ..know what i mean ?
Of all the late nite shows that have ever been, the most consistently hilarious one was CONAN, thanks in no small part to Robert Smigel's contributions. Thanks for being the greatest, Conan & Team Coco!
I remember when Triumph made his first appearance, at the Westminster dog show. The guest who came after him asked Conan how much he could do that to him, because there was no way anyone was going to look like anything but a let-down after that screamingly funny, raunchy surprise. Long Live Triumph!
I remember an episode where triumph was asked the question "in what activity would one 'tie a rope to the poop rail'?" (the answer is sailing) to which he responded "dating Little Richard." Little Richard was in the square next to him and had this expression of absolute shock on his face.
Yes, on the person who mentioned Gilbert Godfrey. Triumph was spectacular. The major networks have to look back and look at what little they have now. And, know Conan was their mistake. The quality of his shows. And the fact, that quality acts wanted to be on his show. Just says it all for me. Classic!!!
Panelists: 1. Kathie Lee Gifford 2. Al Roker 3. Tony Sirico and Vincent Pastore 4. Triumph the Insult Comic Dog 5. Michael Beach 6. Caroline Rhea 7. Gilbert Gottfried 8. Bruce Vilanch 9. Whoopi Goldberg
Triumph is outrageous...a perfect addition to the perpetually boring Hollywood Squares. I would give Triumph and Kathie Lee a situation comedy...perfect duo!
Of all the little segments, I thought the one with The Sopranos guys was hilarious. They lost it on the line about the Chihuahua. (So did I though). Too funny.
@@mizztery2994 I don't know about that. His Conan On Location shows where he travels the world have lots of great ad-libs. I'm sure they cut out all of the stuff that doesn't land, but some of it is still gold.
@@mizztery2994 Except there is documented evidence, both anecdotal and recorded to dispute that. Listen to him and Paul Rudd on his podcast, it's them ad-libbing throughout. They even talk about early on avoiding location bits because they are worried he can't ad-lib, and then he goes and has some of the best location scenes in late night, which are all ad-libbing.
@@mizztery2994 I understand, I feel like some comedians don't do it for me, but I think Conan, beyond whether he is funny to any given person or not, is a good man who tries to do the right thing, so I not only think he is funny, but I respect him as a person. Cheers.
I really do love some of the early older stuff from Whoopi Goldberg. That was back when she was much younger and wasn't really censored!! She didn't care about what people think of her at that point!! My God have things changed............
The dog puppet gets its own square and the sopranos guys have to share one 😂😂😂😂😂😂 thats hilarious
Al Roker’s got a great sense of humor. I love that he was a great sport. The timing was perfect when he was spanking him with the paper “Bad dog!”
He would always make little appearances on conan and he was always great and took it like a true champ
@@AKABoondock19this! Al roker was such a frequent flier.. He was really more of a character than a guest star lol
"A little peanut butter would help" hilarious
There's NOT enough peanut butter in America to make that taste good.
I'd prefer a plate of ole arsenic before considering that ! 🤢
@@daboo7725Lol!
I love how Al Roker was always such a good sport and played along on Late Night, as well as here with Triumph.
“The llasa Oprah.”😂😂😂 Almost as funny was how hard Whoopie laughed at that one.😅
Can someone please explain this joke to me? I’m not an American;(
Triumph and the Poodle was priceless!!!
Years old and still funnier than lots of stuff out there today!😂😂
WAY!!!
Do you know who’s dog that was? I’d die if it was Kathy Lee’s 😝
@@MikeSchellingMusic good question! Please let me know if u find out!😅👍🙋♀️👋💕
Kathie looking at Smigel rather than the dog was what made it even funnier. 😂
Most of today's dogshit night time talk shows
The fact that Robert Smigle is just kneeling down their the whole time is hilarious
Hey, don't spoil the magic!
Commitment to the art. Legend.
Kathie Lee really had it going on.
Her expression at the end was priceless.
Anytime KLG is put in an awkward moment is gold. Lol!
Ive heard valid stories about she is a hellcat in the sack.
She looks gorgeous.
She knows that feeling
😂😂😂😂
Robert Smigel is a comedy genius, I hope he's doing well, God bless!🙋♂️❤
Is Robert sick? I hope not.
He’s a gift 💝
He just got arrested "trespassing" @ the Capital lol
@@johnnyboycassidy749 😂😂
Kathie Lee’s reaction to the poodle is the funniest thing I’ve seen all week.
she always needed a few drinks to kill that bug up her ass
She even knew it was going to happen long beforehand and she still was in shock not sure how to react.
rob smigal said she was the only person to be seriously offended at his jokes and said so to him after
@@klondike69none85 I don't know why she was so upset, it's a show with B list and almost celebrities at the end of their careers.....what did she expect?
@@repealthepatriotact train wrecks will be train wrecks
I'll never be able to unsee that Whoopie moment - Nor can I enjoy peanut butter ever again.
Lol! 🥜 🧈
this is still radically hilarious decades later. Long live Conan.
I wish we could have this kind of entertainment today, lets bring this type of comedy back in your new HBO show Conan!
This was great, Thank you!!
Amen! Everything s too sensitive and feminized now
I think we used to have a better judge of intent - as in we were laughing because of the absurdity,, not WITH the absurdity. At some point the general consensus changed to "any joke ABOUT a subject is endorsement of that subject."

I offended by your comment...especially the "Thank you" part.

My juvenile humor can’t stop me from a wonderful gut laugh every time I watch Triumph!
When l saw that poodle between his legs I thought I was going to give up a lung!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I haven't heard notes like that since my mother was hit by a car.
The Lhasa Oprah or Roker Spaniel.
😄
I miss this time period so damn much. Things are so wildly different now, that sometimes I just miss what I was more used to.
He keeps roasting Al Roker 😂😂😂
I'm friends with his son, he and I go to college together
@@hammerheadmatt9987 LOL. What?? Who the fk cares? You're a nobody, your classmate is a nobody.
Triumph is a national treasure.
Tony Sirico's ash flick was gangsta. One of the greatest mobster characters portrayed. May his soul find peace.
Of all the late nite shows that have ever been, the most consistently hilarious one was CONAN, thanks in no small part to Robert Smigel's contributions. Thanks for being the greatest, Conan & Team Coco!
Smigel's contributions were pretty much the only funny stuff on Late Night w Conan; most of the other stuff was just weird. Letterman was *the* best.
Far better than the other night talk shows . No question about it. !!
@@fretbuzz59no
Triumph never disappoints!

Triumph is the best...RIP Gilbert Godfried...
Gottfried
?
And, RIP Richard Belzer.
RIP Phil Lesh
Ohhh shit, I'm literally laughing out loud, I haven't seen this Triumph segment before. Thank you
I remember an episode where triumph was asked the question "in what activity would one 'tie a rope to the poop rail'?" (the answer is sailing) to which he responded "dating Little Richard." Little Richard was in the square next to him and had this expression of absolute shock on his face.
Hey long lost brother hahahaha
@@Ronaldo1774 see ya space coyote!
"When he goes to the dog park the dogs sniff his face."........that one was brutal!
Yeah, I'm writing that one down.
Hollywood squares needs to be on TV again with whoopie Goldberg and Obama and a dope sniffing dog ?
That's a rework of a Rodney Dangerfield joke but always funny.
Man that was freaking hilarious, Triumph is without question the best.
I just want to take this moment to say how hot Kathy Lee was. Triumph is hilarious
There to busy trying to rent my girlfriend s. 🍑 peach. Peace out
She really is, laddie. 🍀🍀
Agreed 👍🏽
@@paulredner4068 *They're too*
Like Triumph, can't stand Kathie Lee!!!!!
Laughing so hard.The look on Kathie Lee.
😂😂😂😂
I ACTUALLY MISS TRIUMPH A LOT
Why? He still around doing better shit than ever
He's still around, but he's become more of a political comic. He's got good material, but you may not like him, depending on how you swing now.
2000- America is stress out!
2022- how cute.
When I first saw Triumph years ago, I thought it "silly." Now I can't stop laughing!
This is still funny ass hell ,bring him back please
Conan needs to come back to TV and bring Triumph with him!
LOL! That was a time when I had no time for television. but, watching this dog might be the funniest thing on television. Thanks for the uploads.
Triumph should have made a few movies. Comedy gold.
"Thank you for sitting me next to Roker...it's the first time no one is going to blame me for farting"
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5:50 - 6:08 was just great! The Lasa-Oprah LOL! Seeing Whoopi Goldberg & Al Roker laugh there asses off.
I have tears running down my face. That look of disgust Kathie Lee gave him was hilarious!!!
Good gravy....i miss the old Conan show...tos was some fun stuff
I love watching pre-9/11 TV show reruns. Everything was so much funnier.
"We are stressed out with no end in sight..." oh life before covid...you have no idea.
conan was stressed because algore lost. lol
Omg my stomach hurts from laughing so hard 😅😂😆😅😂😃😂😂😂
The poodle 🐩 is a star ⭐️! More Triumph, please ♥️
Need more of Triumph right now
3:56 The reason you're here after you heard the news earlier.
RIP Gilbert Gottfried
He was absolutely legend of our childhood 🙏
God bless his funny memory.
Robert Smiegle is one of the most under rated comedians. He is daringly honest and just silly enough to make you spit out your drink!
Ive seen this hundreds of times still makes me laugh
I like how Whoopie Me-Too'd Triumphs holder.
Keep in mind that she was coked out of her mind back then.
Genius, have never laughed so much....the look on Kathy Lees face tells me she was jealous....Lol
It seems like I haven’t laughed in a very long time. And it felt great thanks Triumph I needed that!! 😁
"The vet already chopped my nuts off, what are you going to do?!" XD
Yes, on the person who mentioned Gilbert Godfrey. Triumph was spectacular. The major networks have to look back and look at what little they have now. And, know Conan was their mistake. The quality of his shows. And the fact, that quality acts wanted to be on his show. Just says it all for me. Classic!!!
I love it when the reaction is "Oh no, this exchange has made me look foolish. Better simulate violence with a dog puppet to save face.".
Thank You Robert Smigel
The puddle scene had me crying....and dying laughing at the same time.
Triumph was as good a comedian as there was in the business.
They thought they had problems back then! And Conan was still funny to boot.
When Triumph was on Al Roker's head🤣When he was talking with the "Sopranos" stars."We both broke up with our b s this year." Kathie Lee whales on him.
I haven’t laughed this frigging hard since the first time I saw Animal House!
The Chihuahua line was gold 😂

Poodle scene, by far.
Great job Late Night Archives! Love the old vhs look. New sub.
The Hollywood Squares episode must have been recorded back when Whoopie still had a sense of humor. W-a-a-a-y back.
Yeah, waaaay back when she was always coked out of her mind. Now she's all serious super-liberal hate the white man political now.
Of all the little segments, I thought the one with The Sopranos guys was hilarious. They lost it on the line about the Chihuahua. (So did I though). Too funny.
This muppet is gangster ! The best American comic of all time
Bad dog! Bad dog! 🤣
who's here in 2024? feels like we've been stressed out our whole lives!
I was in the audience of Hollywood squares couple times if only I got to see Triumph!
there was Carson then there was Lettermen then there was Conan.. Nobody else has touched that genius since.

Yup
Yes yes that’s the Lassa Oprah 😂
They all had their hair down, so refreshing.
Who doesn't love Triumph
Holy crap! That was funny as hell.
I love Triumph. They should make a movie about him similar to the style of Borat.
Holy Sh*t Roker was gigantic😳
HS has never had this kind of energy!!
3:10-shaving a pussy---cat.Laughed out loud.
I wish they would've shown Al Roker after he said Roker Spaniel.
The world needs Triumph right now…
Omg. It’s amazing to be able to laugh out loud. Hilarious.
If I had a messed up day... watch this....
The messed up day will end...
1:29 it starts
RIP Gilbert
Sure glad Will Smith wasn't in the Square next to Triumph.
Bad dog you can't take him anywhere
But you can take him everywhere
That's what I always say about my kid brother.
This was a great video.... FOR ME TO POOP ON!
My favorite part is when he says Gilbert Gottfried is so ugly dogs sniff his face (4:12).
If you're here, who's at home disappointing your parents?
- Comic Con
"You're only encouraging me, baby!"
A little peanut butter would've helped. Crying
Kathie Lee is just beggin' for it...
Triumph is a badass
Some of this is on the DVD for Conan's special.
