In the year 2000 - Volume 1

Here are some of my favorite predictions of the year 2000 by comic genius Conan O'Brien.
Feel free to add your favorites!



Conan: Tonight, we're going to look ahead into the future.
Andy: The future, Conan?
Conan: Yes, the future. All the way to the year 2000.
La Bamba: In the year 2000....



The original--Andy Richter

  • "Michael Jackson's son, Prince Michael II will write a memoir in which he wistfully recalls that one glorious moment on the balcony when he nearly escaped."
  • "Chemists will discover what makes simple sugars simple. Their parents were brother and sister."
  • "On Christmas Eve, Michael Jackson will be visited by a ghost who takes him on a journey to christmas past. Unfortunately, Jackson will use the trip as an excuse to fondle himself as a child!"

The Alec Baldwin Edition
  • After getting more in touch with his feminine side, Mr. T will open a hair salon called, "I Pretty the Fool."
  • Kirstie Alley will call a press conference to announce that she's full, then say "psych," and eat six reporters.

The Snoop Dogg Edition

The Mr. T Edition
