Line 40:
* [[Clip Show]]: ''The Conan One Hour Earlier Best Of Spectacular'', in celebration of the show's first-year anniversary.
* [[China Takes Over the World]]: The sketch "Why China is Kicking Our Ass", showcasing something idiotic about American culture.
* [[Cloudcuckooland]]: To promote the show, an HD webcam was set up next to a stairwell at the new offices. For a while it was also a regular [https://web.archive.org/web/20131222115007/http://teamcoco.com/livecococam webisode] on Fridays. Apparently an "average day" includes dancing Tacos, lettuce baseball, bears doing aerobics, magic shows, [[Perverse Sexual Lust|a girl with green pants]], puppet shows, raptor attacks, spontaneous [[Shakespeare]] lectures as Conan himself eats an apple, [[Noodle Implements|jolly ranchers used in eating contests]], and a very irate Andy [[Hypocritical Humor|yelling at everyone to get back to work.]]
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Anytime Harland Williams is a guest.
* [[Companion Cube]]: His Eisenhower-shaped mug, which was on his desks at ''[[Late Night]]'' and ''[[The Tonight Show]]''.
Line 104:
* [[One Head Taller]]: Conan (6'4"), and Andy (6'2") tower over most of their female guests (who are often wearing really high heels to compensate) and some of their male guests.
** On one episode, there was a guy in the audience who was one head taller than Conan. Conan noticed this and brought him over to meet him. It is incredibly strange to see Conan have to look up at anyone.
** Also notable here is that the warm-up comedian for the audience, Jimmy Pardo, is 5'4". [https://web.archive.org/web/20120501154338/http://teamcoco.com/photos/photos-thursday-111711#photo=20467 This photo] illustrates the difference rather dramatically.
* [[One Steve Limit]]: Averted. Two of Conan's writers and frequent sketch performers are Brian Stack and Brian McCann.
** Another writer's name is Matt O'Brien. He is ''not'' related to Conan.
* [[Painted-On Pants]]: The jeggings. Oh dear God, [https://web.archive.org/web/20120527133548/http://teamcoco.com/content/week-review-112910#photo=1725 the jeggings].
** And now there's Andy with the [https://web.archive.org/web/20110820211908/http://teamcoco.com/content/andy-rocks-skinny-jeans#photo=6073 skinny jeans]. What is it with these guys and tight pants?
* [[Pop Cultural Osmosis Failure]]: "Basic Cable Name That Tune" features audience members tasked with identifying [[Suspiciously Similar Song|knockoff versions]] of well-known songs. Since the sketch's humor is based around how poorly disguised the copying is, the bit falls flat whenever the audience member isn't familiar enough with the original song to identify it.
* [[Precious Puppies]]: Following the 2012 edition of the [[Animal Planet]] [[Super Bowl]] alternative [[Puppy Bowl]], Conan showed off ''Puppy Conan'', a puppy scaled version of the set with Puppy Conan and Puppy Andy sitting in the seats. Conan and Andy joined them, with Conan saying "You know, we should really do the show from this set one of these nights!"
