On November 9th, the work of Saturday Night Live writer and occasional cast member Robert Smigel was honored at the Museum of Television and Radio in New York.
Smigel's work on SNL, along with Late Night with Conan O'Brien, TV Funhouse and The Dana Carvey Show was showcased to a enthusiastic crowd.
The discussion was packed with fascinating information, according to reports. For example, Smigel stated in no uncertain terms that when Conan O'Brien moves to LA to replace Jay Leno in 2008, he will absolutely not be going along with him. He's determined to stay in New York.
I would hope Conan will still use him. Via satellite or doing taped bits from NY.
Losing him and Andy Richter would be bad.

Conan's gonna hate LA. To (roughly) quote Neil Simon, "When it's 100 degrees in NYC, it's 72 in LA. When it's 32 degrees in NYC, it's 72 in LA. But there are 2 million interesting people in New York, and only 72 in LA."
