As part of a remote segment for Conan, the hysterical Tig Notaro went to local businesses around LA to get her headshot on the wall. The businesses were surprisingly not opposed to the idea, but Tig wasn’t just going to give them any headshot. Also, she calls Sarah Silverman to verify her headshot being on a wall of furniture store, which is pretty great.
The very funny Jen Kirkman had a life changing moment while going through airport security all because of her hair extensions. Hear what happened on her latest Conan set from last night and the evils of married people.
TBS will be one of the first channels/networks to offer complete access to whatever’s playing on air to those who choose to watch online. This means you’ll be able to watch Conan, Deon Cole and Pete Holmes’ upcoming shows, and possibly a police procedural comedy from Steve and Nancy Carell currently in development.
Now the question will become: If you’re streaming TBS online, do you still have to watch all these shows during their airtime?
Pete Holmes is not on board with ‘Game of Thrones’ for the most delightful reason. We cannot wait for Pete to follow Conan on TBS.
There’s a reason that Marc Maron has been on Conan so many times over the years.
It’s great. Even if they’re talking porn and it’s a little weird, it’s still great. Watch now.
Not only did the hysterical Jay Larson prank call a small NYC company from LA, he did it on a whim. Do yourself a favor and make this Tuesday better by watching Larson tell the whole story now.
Actually, the hilarious Jay Larson scheduled today to both do Conan and a benefit for Boston later at The Comedy Store, neither of which you should miss. This should make you forget the rain LA.
It’ll be on TBS 11PM.
The very funny Tone Bell and Shane Mauss both got to perform stand-up last night on late night talk shows. See their sets on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson where Bell got called over to the couch and Conan where Mauss got a nice amount of applause breaks.
Bill Tull, Conan O Brien’s prop master, has returned to give more tips for the upcoming celebrations surrounding Cinco De Mayo. Of course, as with all Tull’s suggestions, while they do save you money, it’d probably be best to not do them around children or small animals.
As more networks are either expanding their comedy programming are entirely rebranding themselves as a comedy focused channel, Comedy Central has made a lot of great moves over the last year in what is getting to be one crowded race for comedy on television.
Today, they’ve ordered both an animated pilot from Will Gluck and Conan writer Scott Gairdnerand added another late night show hosted by Chris Hardwick and produced by Funny or Die/Robert Ben Garant/Thomas Lennon.
It will be interesting to see how this all plays out in the coming months.

Burning Love, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, Clueless Gamer with Conan O’Brien, Funny or Die, The Onion, and more all garner nominations for the annual honors to the Internet Webby Awards. That’s the type of list of nominees we like to see, not to mention that none other than Patton Oswalt will be hosting the whole affair to be broadcasted Wed. May 22nd at webbyawards.com.
You’d wonder what Tig Notaro could possibly do on Conan after having a pushed a stool on national television and then talking about her bout with cancer.
Well, she was on Conan last night and she casually called a friend up during the interview and, of course, it was hilarious. Watch now.
We’re glad to see that Conan definitely has a great stable of regulars in regards to stand-up, not to mention that he features stand-up on a consistent basis. We’re also glad to see that a great example of this is Nate Bargatze notching his 4th set on a Conan O’Brien hosted program (he’s done two at Late Night and two at Conan).
Perhaps you didn’t even know you wanted this to happen or maybe this finally has realized from the ether after someone had watched a clip of Triumph and The Real Housewives of Atlanta consecutively, but Triumph had a nice little chat with said housewives on Conan last night.
In short, this is amazing and you’ll definitely be glad this happened (the housewives can’t help but laugh at being roasted to their faces).
As part of his trip to Atlanta, Conan O’Brien did a segment in which he took part in a Civil War reenactment for a day. Needless to say, Conan had more than his share of fun with it by using hand cream and more.
We almost think that Conan want to go to Atlanta just to do this. Watch now.
TBS Renews Conan Through November 2015
Hopefully, by then, Nielsen will have fully integrated ratings from TV and the Internet and the fervent fanbase of Conan O’Brien will make the next renewal cycle longer than 2 and a half years.
Americana Culture Expert/Humorist Charles Phoenix tries to show Conan how to make a vintage lamb cake and, as the time was running short on the segment, Conan rushed his attempt. The results are pretty awesome which includes flying raw meat.
Yet another really great stand-up set comes up on Conan. This time the incredibly funny Emily Heller seems almost effortless in her first Conan appearance and, hopefully, not her last.
If you’re strapped for cash, but still want to delve into today’s festivities, then look no further than the propmaster over at Conan, Bill Tull, for some great tips and tricks as well as you’re own ability to control your own gag reflex.
Conan Associate Producer, Jordan Schlansky, To Do Reddit AMA Next Week
If you might remember both Late Night with Conan O’Brien and The WGA Strike a few years back, Conan had one of the most hilarious dinners with one of his associate producers Jordan Schlansky wherein Schlansky ignored every insult Conan leveled at him continuing to tell him about Italian culture ad nauseum.
Watch the infamous dinner here and get ready for Schlansky to do a Reddit AMA on Monday for the inevitable questions you’ve saved up either for years or after seeing him be pretentious about his espresso machine earlier this week on Conan.
Conan has just kept the funny people that the rest of the world/Internet needs to know about rolling as Alex Koll does his first late night stand-up set.
At least that’s what Anthony Jeselnik told Conan O’Brien last night during a panel interview. Jeselnik also admits that he family members and charity benefits want in on his comedy, despite Anthony Jeselnik warning them what will happen.
The hilarious Ian Edwards returns to Conan for another great set relating to the very unique experience of being a black man visiting Israel.
