Conan’s famous associate producer Jordan Schlansky has many obsessions that have been cataloged and systematically ridiculed by Conan O’Brien over the years. Aside from wine, coffee, water, and Italy, Jordan is a huge Star Wars fan.
As Conan had a Star Wars themed episode last night, they let Jordan geek out over meeting Harrison Ford and Star Wars: The Force Awakens director J.J. Abrams as well as get a pretty great bit out if.
Whether or not you’re caught up with the return of Star Wars or the late night juggernaut that is The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Harrison Ford’s stop by Fallon’s desk last night was pretty great. It was a call back of how fun a late night interview, on any late night talk show, should be.
Though not as spry as the Han Solo from the original Star Wars, Ford still has the same attitude that made him perfect for the role that clashed well with Fallon’s desire to not draw the ire of Harrison.
