Move Over Clark Griswold

Conan unveiled his set decorations last night and I have to say that this was one of my favorite bits he's done on his new show. Next year I will definitely try talking the Mrs. into putting a giant inflatable chicken sandwich in our place.

Fri Fri Fri Friday!

"You don't have to tell me what day it is, it's Fri Fri Fri Friday! Party. Time. Weekend. Beginning. Now! It's Five ooooooooooo' clock! (Steam whistle) Quittin'. Time! (Steam whistle) Let's. Get. Cookin'!" (Cue Loverboy - Working For The Weekend)

Now that I've confused all of you...

Chet has been a big fan of Jenny Lewis for a long time and I have to say I'm quickly becoming one too, however, I didn't love her performance on Conan last night. She's the lead singer of Jenny and Johnny, Rilo Kiley, and she costarred in the 1989 adventure hit The Wizard with Fred Savage.

Here's the song that was performed on Conan last night, after hearing the album version it sure has planted itself in my head.

I’m Still Here

Hey, folks! Sorry for lack of posts recently! I was out of town and I actually went to the moon! Mitch and I are stoked about Conan and how he is Conan again. While the format is still the same - I think a 15 minute concert from the bands at the end would be cool - I still love it. I can already tell Conan is different by the fact he has already done the ‘string dance’ more times than his entire stint on Tonight (keep in mind I exclude the last two weeks of the Tonight Show), we have see the Masturbating Bear, bare ass, Conan dropped a Motherf&*#@$ on the air. Very nice to have him back, and me for that matter. Mitch and I will keep posting favorite music, entertainment stories that make us laugh.

Welcome Back Conan!

Just Days Away Now

Oh Coco, we are so close. Here is a clip of Conan stopping by Lopez Tonight. Also, thanks to Mitch, I’m addicted to that Mayer Hawthorne song. So well done!

Better Take A Look!

I know it is 22 minutes long, but if you get a chance watch a few minutes here and there. It’s a great pilot episode that never got picked up. Why am I showing this pilot of Lookwell? It was one of Conan O’Brien’s first writing gigs.

100th Post! (Updated)

I just noticed on the old dashboard that this is the 100th post! I should save it for Chet to write something special but who knows when he's going to post again? With the Chiefs being 3-0 he's probably busy thrusting a field goal post somewhere. Anyway, since we haven't posted since Monday here are some more TV thoughts, a quick game of Where's Chet?, and a new Conan promo.

TV Thoughts
I have ended my relationship with The League and Glee. Both season passes have been deleted from the DVR. The League is trying way too hard to be funny and Glee is boring. I have no plans to replace them with anything.

Where's Chet?
1. Getting signatures so he can run for mayor of Chicago
2. Eating a meatball sub at the Subway across the street from his place
3. Riding around on an ATV running over Colts mascots
4. The meatball sub didn't fill him up so he's having a snack. Maybe a muffin and a Coke?

New Conan Promo

Missing You

Happy Wednesday Eve

Enjoy this tid-bit of music for Wednesday Eve. I recently saw them live at the Metro in Chicago on Saturday, and I was very impressed and entertained. Enjoy 'Wet and Rusting' by Menomena. Also on Saturday, came the news that Max Weinberg will not be returning to lead Conan’s band when he returns in November. It appears long-time band member Jimmy Vivino will take over for Weinberg, TVguide.com reports. So sad. I was a big fan of the ‘Max Weinberg Seven’ during Late Night. They played a variety of new and old music and always sounded loud on the TeeVee. But Vivino seems like a good band-leader for the TBS adventure.

Something for Chaddy

Since the countdown clock at the top of the page says 48 days and not 0 days until the return of Conan I give you a new video of him answering fan email. This sandwich looks like something that I could get into. Minus the mayo of course. Mayo is gross.

And They Call Me Mad?

Here is the new print ad for Conan’s new show, Conan.

Also, here is Conan’s spoken-word re-telling of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein that is up at teamcoco.com. They also play the interview of Conan done by Jack White. It is definitely worth a listen if you got the time.

HAVE A LISTEN HERE

Thanks to teamcoco.com for having that up for us!

Jack and Conan

I came across this today and thought it was pretty cool. Conan O'Brien and his band playing Seven Nation Army at Jack White's Third Man Records. I'm ready for Conan to be back on TV, not much longer until November!



Here's one of my favorite White Stripes videos with a Conan cameo.

Can't Wait for November

Just like the promo embedded below, this post is short and sweet.
