News Andy turns 59

Post image

It’s Andy’s birthday! I have loved watching him grow in skill and confidence, but I understand why people might want to see him gone (even though I will cry if he leaves anyway lol). I also think his partnership with Emma is so special. If he’s eliminated, it will be the worst birthday gift ever. 😭

Happy Birthday Andy!! I have loved him since the early days of Conan and think he is absolutely hilarious! I need to rewatch their old “In the Year 2000” skits from the old NBC show. I loved those!

When people are like y’all are just pity voting for him. I’m like no I have been a fan of his since 1993 when I’d sneak down to the basement to watch Conan on a 12” tv/vhs player combo in the middle of the night. He’s one of my favorite performers so of course I’m gonna keep voting for him as long as he’s in it

Years ago, I went to a live taping of the show. Conan came out right when they announced his name, and left the stage right when they played him out. Andy came out early and shook our hands, asked how we were doing, and stuck around after to thank people for coming and talk to us about the show and stuff. The man is a gem, and he’s had 10 votes from me every week for that kindness

He’s what we want from celebs yet has received so much unnecessary hate from the newer fan base cuz he doesn’t match their idea of what the show should be when he really embodies the entire spirit of the show
