This is some classic Conan antics right here. Watching Triumph insult the Frenchie-Canadians was priceless, as none of them had a sense of humour (except for one weird lecherous old dude). Here's the good bits from an IMDB report, including Conan's “apology”:
The Toronto businessman who spearheaded a drive to bring NBC's Conan O'Brien to Canada for a week of shows featuring Canadian-born talent has defended O'Brien against an avalanche of public outrage that ensued when Robert Smigel, in the guise of Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog, let loose with a series of barbs targeting French-speaking Quebecers. Soumalias told the Canadian Press that he not only has no regrets about the bit but encouraged it. Soumalias said that some of O'Brien's writers did express concern about the material but that he assured them that Canada was mature enough to take it. As for protests by government figures about the skit, Soumalias said, “Government needs to stay out of the public airwaves. It's as simple as that.”
Appearing with a “translator” (whose words appeared in English subtitles), O'Brien apologised on Tuesday night's show:
O'Brien: “People of Quebec, I'm sorry.”
French translator: “People of Quebec, I'm an albino jackass.”
O'Brien: “We meant no harm with our comedy piece the other night.”
Translator: “The other night, I wet the bed like a little girl.”
O'Brien: “I was a stranger in a strange land and I was very insensitive.”
Translator: “I have a small penis.”
O'Brien: “Quebec, your lively and rich culture is a treasure to Canada, and your unique heritage deserves only praise, not ridicule.”
Translator: “I have never known the touch of a woman and I never will.”
O'Brien: “Again, please accept my heartfelt apologies.”
Translator: “Did I mention I have a small penis?”
B-Diddy DubSac says:
Best Triumph skit I saw was when he went to town on Star Wars/ Trekkies geeks - man, that shit just wrote itself, but Triumph lettem have it both barrells!
[Talking to dude in Darth Vader costume]
"Triumph : What is that on your chest?
Nerd : That would be my chest box that helps me to breathe.
TtICD : Hmmm…chest box, so this is to help you breathe, yes?
N : Yes, you are correct.
TtICD : Then which on of these buttons calls your parents to pick you up?"
Or when he asked the full-tile Stormtrooper to remove his helmet - By Gawd there was a reason this PoorMan's KidRock had that shit on to being with…
…or making fun of the goddam Star Wars Nerds getting married with an guard of "honour" replete with crossed lightsabers….just goes to show the type that would marry a Star Wars Dork :roll:

That Triumph vs Star Wars was pure genius… how about the black guy dressed up as a wizard and taking them all on because LOTR was better.
Lou says:
I think the black guy you are refering to KL is Blackwolf the Dragonmaster, Duke of Talisker. He speaks in a fake english accent AND has his own website. (God bless the internet)
