Conan O’Brien Talks About His ‘Conan In Cuba’ Special (Video)
  |  @   |  

Conan O’Brien spent the long Presidents’ Day weekend in Havana, Cuba, where he filmed a special episode of his late-night talk show Conan.

The red-headed comic posted to his Twitter account on February 16, 2015 that he had spent the previous four days shooting footage for his TBS show all around the city of Havana for an upcoming special called “Conan In Cuba,” airing on March 4, 2015.

On Tuesday night’s episode, which saw O’Brien back in the States, the host revealed a photo of himself in a white linen suit joining in with some colorfully clad street performers in the streets of Havana in what he swears was not a staged moment. Check out the photo here below of Coco dancing in the streets, as well as one of him posing in front of a car, along with his posts to social media and a video of him talking about the experience.

‘Togetherness’ Creators Air-Drum To Rush’s “Tom Sawyer” (Video)
  |  @   |  

HBO’s new series Togetherness has just become my new favorite TV show.

Star Mark Duplass recently appeared on Conan with his brother, Jay Duplass, who co-created and co-wrote the HBO drama with him. Host Conan O’Brien asked the brothers about a scene in the third episode, “Insanity” (which aired on January 25th), where Mark’s character Brett tries to motivate his long-time best friend Alex (Steve Zissis, fellow co-creator and writer) by using Rush’s “Tom Sawyer” as inspiration, resulting in the friends doing a whole synchronized air-drumming sequence. The brothers, who explained that that part of the episode was based their real-life experience from college, got the host to join them in recreating the air-drumming scene.

Watch the video from Conan here below.

Amanda Peet Thought Husband’s Plan To Make ‘Game Of Thrones’ Was A “Terrible Idea” (Video)
  |  @   |  

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago (a handful of years, anyway), no one knew what this show HBO was making called Game of Thrones was going to be…apart of course from those who had read George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire books and had their own high expectations for what it should be.

This includes Amanda Peet, who currently stars in the new HBO dramedy Togetherness, and whose husband, David Benioff, is one of the co-creators of Thrones. Appearing on Conan recently, Peet admitted that when she first heard her husband’s plan to adapt the books into a series, she thought it was a “terrible idea.” Now that the show is a few seasons in, however, she’s just as addicted to it as the rest of us.

You can see a video of Peet’s confession here below.

Conan: ‘The LEGO Movie’ Is Not Happy About Oscar Snub (Video)
  |  @   |  

When the Oscar nominations were announced on Thursday, one of the most obvious snubs was for The LEGO Movie, which was left out of the running for Best Animated Feature. Internet outrage (justifiably) ensued. The film’s co-director Phil Lord took to Twitter to try and calm the masses, and even posted an image of a LEGO version of the Oscar statue to show everyone that he had made his own.

But, are the people behind The LEGO Movie really going to be such good sports? Conan O’Brien doesn’t think so, as the late night talk show host posted a video of the “response” from the producers of The LEGO Movie regarding the Academy’s failure to nominate the film. They seem pretty pissed. Watch the hilarious video here below.

‘Star Wars’ Fan Donald Faison Says ‘Star Trek’ Is Lame (Video)
  |  @   |  

It’s an age-old rivalry – Star Wars vs. Star Trek and actor Donald Faison has brought it back into the arena.

The Scrubs actor, a self-professed Star Wars fanatic, made an appearance last week on Conan to promote his latest film, Let’s Kill Ward’s Wife, which is out now On Demand and in select theaters in NY and LA. During the appearance, he talked about celebrating this 40th birthday at Disneyland, where he donned a Darth Vader helmet hat. This led to a discussion about Star Trek and how Faison feels it’s “lame” in comparison to Star Wars. To prove his point, the actor brought a clip from the original Star Trek television series episode “Arena” where Captain Kirk (William Shatner) fights the Gorn.

Check out the video of Faison’s Star Wars vs. Star Trek appearance here below.
