Did anyone else find Conan O'Brien's farewell speech quite inspiring?

I was very impressed with Conan O’Brien’s parting words at the end of his last show. There was no bitterness. In fact, he really came off as a decent guy with respect for others and genuine perspective. What he said at the close of his last show was very inspiring. I hope someone puts it on YouTube or Hulu…just the closing remarks would be worthwhile replaying.
I’ve never been a fan of any of the late night shows. But now I wish that I had taken the time to give, at least Conan, a second look. As a New Yorker, I hope that he finds his way back to a Manhattan studio, with a new show.

Very much so. Before this whole fiasco I liked Conan as a comedian, but now after see how he handled the situation I like him as a person.
That’s a huge part of his success. He is always genuine and never mean-spirited.
Yes, especially when he asked people not to be cynical about the situation and life in general. Coco is a class act.
I missed out on watching his last show. Does anyone know where I’d find it online?
Yeah, Canadians can’t view Hulu. Bummer.
Thanks, though.
YES! Especially his comments to young people about his least favorite quality—cynicsm.
Ah, and Canadians can’t watch anything on the NBC website (redonkulous).
Thanks, though, Bud.
That was a great farewell speech, he did it perfectly. I’m so glad I saw it and Ben Harper doing his thing on the slide guitar at the end made it that much better!
I agree with what pretty much everyone else said so far. His speech just made me like him more than I already did. His speech was simple and honest… very classy. I <3 Conan.
@jmah Maybe this? It says Fancast, but I’m not sure if it connects to Hulu.
Conan is a genuine guy and real class act. It’s a loss for NBC, and a loss for us all.
As goofy as he can act, he’s a super smart, literate and truly nice guy.
@davidk well, i knew he could shred like a mofo before. but yeah, it was a cool way to go out. and cowbell from ferrell no less!
yeah i loved the song with everyone playing, and the pregnant hippie chick. did not know CoCo could play like a pro.

@Allie I tried it and it didn’t work. Bah. Oh well, I’ll find it somewhere. Thanks, Hon.
