While accepting one of the best honors in this year’s television academy, Star Conan O’Brien admitted that the prize had come at an unusual time. Speaking on Saturday to the public of the temple of fame of Television Academy, O’Brien noted that at that time, “there is a lot of fear of the future of television, and rightly so. The life that we have all known for almost 80 years undergoes a seismic change. ”
But, he said to the public gathered at JW Marriot Hotel in the Lin Downtown district, “it may be my nature. I choose not to cry what is lost, because I think that in the most essential way, which we have not changed at all.
O’Brien underlined the success of the recent series “Abbott Elementary”, “Hacks” and “I think you should leave with Tim Robinson” as a sign that there could still be creative opportunities in Hollywood. The actor said: “Everything is electrifying a new generation of viewers. Yes, late evening television, as we have known since around 1950, will disappear. But these voices are going nowhere. People like Stephen Colbert are too talented and too essential to leave.”
And this is where O’Brien approached the state of his long -standing game fields. O’Brien, of course, spent almost 30 years in the part of the day, via “Late Night With Conan O’Brien”, “The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien” and “Conan”. “I tried other things, but that’s where I experienced,” he said. “And for those of you under the age of 40, television at the end of the evening was a service designed to distract students until science perfected internet and online pornography. Boy, they understood correctly. ”
Then he added to Colbert: “Stephen will evolve and shine more than ever in a new format that he completely controls. So technology can do what they want. It can make a television a pill.
As for TV Academy Hall of Fame Award, which he shared with Viola Davis, Henry Winkler, Ryan Murphy, Mike Post and Don Mischer, O’Brien added: “It is the honor of a life. It means everything for me.
Also at the temple of fame, Murphy tackled the struggles of the moment, while the nation goes more to fascism and eliminated the rights of all: “I always thought one thing: that if you fight hard and pushed these noisy and vibrant characters to the system, which could erase the brush,” he said, “and you would go to hide with this flag plant. Now, curiously, in this year of my price for the fame of fame, I find that I am wrong.
“I had a dream a long time ago, to enter the fame of the fame of my profession, so that I can say that I did it,” he added. “I did the thing, and now I can just incur and be everything about money. But a new older age than I think that none of us suspected.
