Cheers: Conan's Brand Awareness | Cheers & Jeers | 7/23/2008 New
Cheers to Russell Brand for an instant-classic appearance on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. The bad-boy British stand-up, best known in this country for his outlandish role as rocker Aldous Snow in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, opened his hyperkinetic segment by comparing coifs with the carrot-topped host: "We could build an arch of hair across the Atlantic uniting our two countries...We'd make a mockery of Lindbergh's achievements!" His verbal torrent continued with uproarious anecdotes about meeting the Queen ("a little part of me was thinking, 'Grab her boobs!'") and feuding with Rod Stewart ("a man who in his prime wore leopard-skin tights on a daily basis"). Conan concluded by calling Brand "the funniest person I've talked to in a long time" — and if you don't believe it, type "Russell Brand" and "Conan" into YouTube and laugh for yourself. • Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers & Jeers discussion board.• We may feature your... read more
Fallon Gets Late Night Try-Out on Web; Leno-Conan to Swap in June | Today's News: Our Take | 7/21/2008
This fall — some six months before his Late Night talker hits the airwaves — Jimmy Fallon will attempt a "soft launch" of the show, performing five- to 10-minute routines on an NBC online portal TBA. This unorthodox "dry run" is intended to let Fallon find his voice and rhythm and thus avoid the sort of pitfalls that plagued Conan O'Brien when he himself entered the late-night realm.As for Conan, he is expected to cease production on his Late Night in February, then head west to prepare his take on The Tonight Show, which will premiere sometime in June — and from a brand-new stage now in production. Fallon's Late Night is slated to hit NBC proper "sometime in the spring," giving him Leno as a lead-in for a brief stretch. — Matt Mitovich read more
Cheers: Late-night Writers Strike Back | Cheers & Jeers | 2/14/2008
Cheers to Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Conan O'Brien for welcoming back their writers in style. During the strike, the hip late-night triumverate trumped up a sidesplitting feud as a way to kill time without scripts. But with the WGA work stoppage resolved, Comedy Central's Stewart changed the temporarily retitled A Daily Show back to The Daily Show, and Colbert presented a new pencil to each of his scribes, including surprise guests Tiki Barber, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Kevin Bacon and Mr. Met. Over on NBC's Late Night, O'Brien revived his opening monologue, observing that during the past few months, "Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both declared their support for the writers' strike. Meanwhile, President Bush announced he's in favor of a readers' strike." It's official: Our long, national TV nightmare is over.• Read and react to Bruce's opinions on CBS' Welcome to the Captain, Jericho and more!• Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers... read more
Conan-Colbert Brawl | Today's Top Videos | 2/5/2008
Uh-oh! Looks like Conan O’Brien and Stephen Colbert’s tiff over who’s really responsible for Huckabee’s fame has reached a new level—we’re talking the ass-kicking kind! Last night, both Colbert and John Stewart appeared on Conan’s show to duke it out like men. Oh, and it was ugly too—bats were swinging, trash cans were flying and they even busted out a blow torch. It was no holds barred, we tell you! read more
Reader's Cheer of the Week: Conan Strikes Back! | Cheers & Jeers | 2/1/2008
Posted by “Inkfrog in Chicago”... Cheers to Conan O’Brien for his limitless talent. The WGA strike has given us even more reasons to love Conan. From his zip-line feats to his Tom Brokaw maze, Conan clearly knows how to pass the time without his writers. But it was his drop-dead rendition of “Blue Moon of Kentucky” that truly put me over the moon. Here’s hoping he takes his guitar on the road... to Chicago!• Read and react to Bruce Fretts' opinions on Lost, House The Sopranos' SAG Awards wins and more!• Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers & Jeers discussion board.• We may feature your Cheer or Jeer on TVGuide.com or in TV Guide magazine! read more
