Zach Braff is not used to filming in a freezing cold studio and his nipples really liked it. So much so, they had to give him pasties to hide just how excited and hard they are for that type of working condition.
You think that would be an embarrassing enough story for him to tell Conan O’Brien yesterday on the TBS talk show, but that was not the only thing keeping the makeup department busy on the set of Alex, Inc. He wore a pair of wicker underwear that is made to absorb sweat. Which it does a good job with, pee not so much. If a little dribble comes out, it will show. That is exactly what happened to him. Thus, he had one person putting pasties on his nipples and another person blow drying his pants dry.
And you thought you had a bad job. Suddenly, it does not sound so bad.
What is good is Alex, Inc, so you can tune in tonight at 8:30p on ABC to see if you can see his pasties under his shirt. I know I have a lot of fun looking for them on Alex, Inc, but I am weird that way. That and I enjoy watching a comedy that makes me laugh!
Lauren Ash told Conan O’Brien on his TBS late night show the other night that when she was 12 years old, her mom played a prank on her that still haunts her to this day. Ash’s mom said she was going out and going to leave her daughter alone for the first time. Shortly after mom left, she took a shower. Then she heard something and started to call for her mom. Eventually, when she got out of the shower, her mom jumped out and scared her. Ash screamed, cried and peed a lot all at the same because she scared peeless.
For decades, she has wondered how she could get back at her mom and she finally found a way after 23 years. Ash’s character on Superstore is pregnant and the actress wears a realistic baby bump so that viewers will think she is the one with child and not America Ferrera. Which they have been doing a great job at hiding.
Anyways, Ash sent her mom a photo of herself wearing the prosthetic belly, told her mom that was really pregnant and her ex-boyfriend is the father. Her mom freaked out and texted her. Ash ignored her. Then she tried calling, the same thing. Eventually, she picked up the phone and spoke to her hysterical mom. Did her mom forgive her? Once she knew why her daughter did, she understood.
That is why they revenge is sweet. What is also sweet is that Ash wrote tonight’s episode of Superstore on NBC at 8p. Let’s see if she is as good at writing as she is as playing the uptight Dina. Something I am pretty sure she will succeed in doing.
You don’t have to be smart and smarter to know that Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels have a special bond after making Dumb and Dumber. Not so special because Daniels is in town and he did not call his best friend. What is Carrey going to do about that? He decided to crash his friend’s interview on Conan and let him know that he knows is in Burbank on his neighbor’s talk show.
At that point, Conan O’Brien lost control of his TBS show and it was well worth it. That was the perfect mix of humor, friendship and reminiscing for them and us. I cannot wipe the smile off my face. It is almost as big as the first time I saw Harry and Lloyd together.
I am off to watch Dumb and Dumber again and then I will binge The Looney Tower on Netflix. Who doesn’t love a good comedy?
In other words, I gave you little hints about the interview without telling you all about it.
Conan O’Brien has done a lot of foolish things in his career and the TBS host thought he had a chance of beating Magic Johnson in a game of HORSE. How did he do? It was a slam dunk for the NBA legend. When it comes to the host, well let’s just they probably turned him into glue after this game. Especially since his legs are the same color as Elmer’s Glue, whiter than white.
Talking about white, Conan idolized Larry Bird when he was younger and he found a way to include him the game. He made a mask of the Celtics player and wore it for it good luck. It worked because he actually got the basketball to go through the hoop. Since it worked for him, Magic thought he would do the same. The Great White Hope worked his magic on Magic too. Now I need some magic to get that image out of my head. How weird did he look with a white face? Almost as weird as Conan with his white face. That joke didn’t work.
Oh and now I am craving Jack in the Box, does anyone know the app for Doordash?
Conan O’Brien decided to treat his employee to a nice bonus and Jordan Schlansky could not even care that his boss is flying them to Italy in a few hours. If they are going to do a whole hour of television in a foreign country, they have to plan for it. That planning is going to go as bad as you would expect it to go.
But there was one huge milestone that finally happened after 23 long years together. The very stoic Jordan Schlansky finally broke out in laughter. That’s right, after nearly two decades, he finally cracked a smile. What got him to do it? A simple staring contest which he lost by smiling like the Joker.
That comment spurred something in Schlansky and he went off on Conan’s face in return. Well, he would not say what he did not like about it until the TBS host threatened that they were not going to Italy anymore. Therefore, what does he not like about that mug? Conan’s skin is dry. Something, we the viewer, don’t see, but now we will be on the lookout for it.
Another thing we need to be on a lookout for is their special episode of Conan Without Borders where they got to Italia on April 11th. I really pray it is a backdoor pilot for a TBS comedy with these men as the stars. I cannot remember the last time I laughed so hard because I was doing spit takes and I was not even drinking anything at the time. They are just so hilarious together. Don’t you just love the way they play with off of each other?
