Yesterday Conan O’Brien teased on Twitter that he would announce the title of his new show on Wednesday. He wrote, “I was going to announce the name of my new show today, but my lawyers tell me “The Return of Nanny McPhee” is taken. Tune in tomorrow.” Today is tomorrow and the host recorded a special video announcement revealing the big news. The name of O’Brien’s new show is…
The summer is winding down and a lot of networks are starting to push promotional material for the fall season. For example, TBS has just aired their first commercial for Conan O’Brien’s new late night talk show. It’s simple, direct, and has Monty Python written all over it. That’s right, Cone Bone decided to take a cue from those comedic geniuses to get our attention — and it worked! Check out the video…
Conan O’Brien won’t hit TBS’s airwaves until later this year but the network is already lobbying for him to get an Emmy. That’s right! They want him to get a shiny, golden trophy for all the hard work he put in…for NBC. It sounds crazy but they’re kick-starting a new campaign that will put Cone Bone in the voter’s sights for awards season.
Conan O’ Brien’s latest stop on his “Legally Prohibited From Being Funny on Television” tour took him to Radio City Music Hall in New York City. A who’s who of actors made appearances including “Saturday Night Live’s” Bill Hader, “The Office’s” John Krasinski, Paul Rudd, and Comedy Central staples Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. And we all know what happens when Conan, Colbert, and Stewart are in the same place at the same time…a dance off!
Over the past week we’ve been covering a good chunk of the network/cable unfronts for the 2010 season. TBS revealed its new fall schedule with the help of their latest on air talent, Conan O’Brien. Weeks ago it was confirmed that the former “Tonight Show” host would bring his shtick to the “very funny” network and he was on hand during their upfront presentation and brought the house down.
While out on the road doing his comedy ‘thing’ Conan O’ Brien decided to stop by Google headquarters in Silicon Valley. He along with his sidekick Andy Richter were on hand to make a room full of employees laugh and feel uncomfortable all at the same time. He made obvious digs at his late night nemesis Jay Leno highlighting his lisp and his famous “it wasn’t my fault” defense. Check it out…
Last night Conan O’Brien’s much-hyped “60 minutes” interview aired on CBS marking his first television appearance since his departure from “The Tonight Show.” If you’re like us your eyes were glued to the screen waiting for Cone Bone to break out the cold hard truth regarding what happened between him, Jay Leno, and NBC. Even though we’re used to seeing the comedian in high spirits, O’Brien seemed somewhat sad during the interview but after the year he’s had can you blame him? If you missed out on last night’s show you can watch the entire segment below…
When it comes to the NBC late night shakeup that occurred a few months ago, Conan O’Brien says he would have done things a lot differently than his counterpart, Jay Leno. In his first post-”Tonight Show” interview, which is scheduled to air on “60 Minutes” this Sunday, Coco told journalist Steve Kroft (more or less) that Leno played him dirty…
This Sunday, Conan O’Brien will sit down and get serious with the folks over at CBS’ long running news magazine, “60 Minutes.” It will be the late night host’s first television interview since his departure from NBC’s “The Tonight Show.” There’s a lot of red tape that might prevent O’Brien from dishing every sordid detail about his former bosses but we’re sure he’ll give us some insight as to what went on behind the scenes.
