FAREWELL

Conan O'Brien's last night on NBC is tonight, and when he leaves, he will also leave behind Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog (NBC owns the intellectual rights). I do wonder if the plastic comic genius will show up on Saturday Night Live, as Robert Smigel (the voice of Triumph) works with that show as well.

One could only hope, right? There are so many funny moments with Triumph that it's difficult to pick out one standout, but I'm gonna go with his infamous feud with Eminem.

During a moment at the 2002 MTV Video Awards, Triumph was shoved to the side by the humor-impaired rap star with such force that the dog was seriously hurt. Later that week, Triumph gave a press conference, and while wearing a neck brace, announced that he was so badly injured in the scuffle that he could no longer lick himself - even in the presence of Christina Aguelira.

So long, Triumph, you will be missed.
