the thing that takes most people off guard about ENTPs is how simple they are.
Sure, they are zany and in your face, but if we can allude the thread entitled " Same Ice Cream, " most of them like simple flavors like vanilla.

They blow through things with a lighter air than say an Ni dominant.
They are not only led by a perceiving function, but their perceiving function is extroverted.

With aux Ti, alot of leverage is accounted for to solve a problem easily and with less effort.
See Bones from the series ' Bones ' and the Ti description.

I was looking to see if I could find clips of Conan that we more candid, but he really seems the same everywhere. I think he is naturally funny and charismatic, typical of extroverts.

This is about as "serious" as I saw so far.
+ "Part 1:Stuyvesant high school commencement speech" via YouTube

Skip to 2 minutes into the second video to get to the "serious" part. The life story seems like an NTP arc. The young NT obsession about what "smart people were supposed to do" and the P finding that he "loved the process" of something. It's not an awful lot to go on, however.

Ooh, I just found this, watching it now:
+ "Charlie Rose Interview" via YouTube
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


EDIT after watching:
His lack of separation between his work personality and himself, the constant concern for competence, the happy-go-lucky but hardworking style to his career, the way he works with his writing staff, and the fact that he is unabashed willingness to just try stuff all seems to point to ENTP.

I'm not sure I buy that guy's typing of the types of comedy. But it did bring up an interesting point. How come I love the Simpsons, but I cannot, cannot stand Family Guy?

Because The Simpsons is much more consistently funny.

I always thought he was an ENTP.
It's just a hunch, that something about him.
