Conan's current home at the Largo Theater actually has a higher seating capacity than his regular studio - which they've been playing for laughs, with his assistant being the only one actually in the seats. Conan's mostly seen in a tight shot at his desk set up on the stage, angled so that the stage curtain and a small of the backstage area are visible behind him, so it doesn't really "feel" as big as it is when he's doing a desk piece or a celebrity Zoom interview. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
