The people I feel sorry for are those that work with Conan behind the scenes. Some of these aren't people who are making millions of $$, They relocated across the country from coast to coast. Some probably sold their houses on the east coast and bought news ones on the West coast. Some of them probably had to take their kids out of school. There lives were uprooted and and for what? Just to be fired several months later. That just doesn't seem right.

Yeah, I feel sorry for them too. However, they had to be aware of the risks involved. Surely, someone sat around and said, "What if Conan doesn't make it?" I have to think that perhaps it is a risk they all considered and made on their own free will. It was a gamble that didn't pay off.
