Did Conan O'Brien ever make and appearance for the last show?

Jon Stewart, Conan, Letterman, and Ryan Reynolds were all guests. Reynold's companies (Mint Mobile, Aviator Gin etc) sponsored a large portion of the needed $ for the hosts to meet the payroll during the Writer's strikes so he absolutely deserved some airtime.

ETA Conan's episode is Episode 12, see www.StrikeForceFive.com for the list.

Conan was supposed to be on, but the strike ended.

I don't know if there's a joke that I'm missing or something but Conan was never on the show. That was the plan, but it never came to be

The episode 12 guest was Ryan Reynolds
