Who won the Conan/Colbert/Stewart brawl?

Whether or not you’ve been following the deliberately tedious creationist/transitive property scandal between Conan O’Brien and off-and-on teammates Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, I think we can all agree that anything that brings these three together for an extended brawl scene — complete with stunt stair tumbles, slo-mo face smushes, and recycling bin torture — is a beautiful thing. (Scan to about 4 minutes in for the action.)

The three late-nighters all appeared on each other’s shows last night. You can see the Daily Show and Colbert Report’s segments here, but it’s fair to say both were weaker-willed leadups to Conan’s main event. So who won the actual brawl? Based on a strict formula of facial expressions + reverse pivots x general inanity, I must award last night’s MVP medal to Stephen Colbert during the came-out-of-nowhere dance party. Those were some sick moves for a Frenchman. Also, to my dear seedy warehouse buddy Conan, this is what you get for prematurely shaving that hot, hot beard.

    I just want Huckabee to stay in the race so we can have 9 more months of this hilarity.

  • Maegan

    I thought this was so funny! I <3 each of them!

  • WH

    Huckabee just won West Virginia! Oh, this is great! I love this election! It’s historic and bizarre; it’s historically bizarre!

  • Daniel

    Ha ha ha. Didn’t see this last night (can’t stay up that late) but that is some fine TV right there. Great to see all of them together.

  • AJ

    This made the fact that I was still awake at that time worth it. Too funny!!

  • Rahul

    I like the Rocky IV-style portraits at the end.

  • Stephanie T.

    Oh man. lol! These guys are way too funny!

  • Raven_Moon

    I loved this! It was so funny. 3 of my favorite guys together is great TV. I rather liked Colbert’s fancy footwork, too. Not only as a dancer, but his whole float like a butterfly routine, too.

  • lalia

    i loved the little spin stephen did while on the ice skates.
    and how did i miss the conan shaving his beard? i miss it so.

  • Dru

    I miss the writers. I love these three, but they are really reaching for material.

  • Patty

    The best part was on Colbert when they started whipping off their belts and shoes. Love them all!

  • Miri

    I loved the brawl, but my favorite parts of the night were the conversations in the hallway while Conan/Colbert waited for Jon, or Jon/Conan waited for Colbert.

  • KG

    i loved the irish jig part haha
    please let huckabee stay on so we’ll have more of this

  • Megan

    I loved the maniacal look that Conan got after he punched Stewart and Colbert. I also loved the end with Huckabee. Tee hee! I recorded this so I could watch it in all its glory later (maybe during a break in election returns).

  • Rebekah

    Of your three choices I say Colbert won due to his wicked dance moves. I actually think Huckabee won it all.

  • Lisa

    They just need to bring Chuck Norris into this now.

  • ProgGrrl

    For those of you who missed one or more of the three shows, which all had “visitors” last night – I’ve got all three show clips in one place here: http://proggrrl.livejournal.com/95253.html

    I agree with Colbert’s assessment – really America won!

  • Secondrink

    Omg, if you added Andy Richter, Steve Carell, and Ed Helms to this…my head would explode. It’d be like a comedy super hero group, and Tina Fey could be the token chick.
    It’s pretty good as is though ;)

  • Mike

    This writers strike needs to end. So these guys can get back to doing what they do best. Last night was pathetic.

  • Elizabeth

    Thank you Annie!

  • Martha

    Thanks, Annie – I really, REALLY needed a good laugh today and this was it. Have to agree that America won this one. The use of the Arctic Monkeys and “Eye of the Tiger” was inspired. Did anyone else catch the camera (as Conan) looking down on a close-up Jon Stewart? Classic.

    Holy crap, this was hilarious!!!! :)
