Steve Carell was on Conan tonight and the TBS late night host asked him if it is true that The 40 Year Old Virgin almost didn’t happen. Carell told him that is true and explained what happened. After the first week of filming, Judd Apatow got a call from the big wigs at Universal and they said they wanted to talk to them because they were shutting them down production. At the meeting the execs said, “We’ve been watching footage…You look like a serial killer.”
They were judging this even though they had not shot any dialogue during their first four days of filming. At that point all they filmed was him riding his bike with a helmet and him walking looking at posters on the street. Which seems weird that they came to that assumption.
Luckily for us, they didn’t listen and went right filming that Monday. Can you imagine if that film never got released? All the other films of Carell and Apatow’s that might not have happened. This movie really launched both of their big screen careers.
Ricky Gervais was on Conan tonight and he gave new meaning to the expression, “You don’t know your ass from your elbow!” How? He took a Selfie of his elbow and it looked like an a$$. If that is not enough for you, he started adding random things between the bend of his upper arm and forearm which made it look even more realistic and disgusting.
The host of the Golden Globes said he learned this trick from a Classical musician and they spent three hours taking many many many photos of his assbow.
So now that he has taught you this fun little game, why are you still reading this. Shouldn’t you be taking photos of your assbow? If you have Reese’s Peanut Butter Chocolate Spread, make sure to smear it around there because it creates the perfect photo to post on Facebook to shock your friends and family. You could be caption it as, “Just had Chipolte.” Too soon?
One of Conan O’Brien’s employees is getting ready to get her driver’s license, so the TBS late night host thought he would prepare Diana Chang for her road test. He didn’t teach her the basics, instead he taught her defensive driving like how to curse out someone who cut you off. Since she wasn’t comprehending how to do it, he brought in two people to Ride Along with them. That’s right, he gave a lyft to Kevin Hart and Ice Cube. If anyone could school her on road rage, it is them. Granted first sound of a siren and they are out of there.
After telling off a few drivers, they asked where they could score some marijuana. Once they knew where to go, Diana put the pedal to the metal. As soon as they got to the dispensary, they stocked up. What do you if you have a lot of pot? You smoke it. With Conan behind the wheel, that is exactly what Diana and Cube did in the backseat as Hart laughed uncontrollably with his contact high in the front seat. Now would his contact high save their a$$es when they got pulled over by the POPO? You just have to watch this highlarious remote to find out.
Did Diana get her license? I don’t know if she would want to drive after that traumatizing experience. I know I wouldn’t.

Dick Van Dyke was on Conan last week and he brought his A Capella group with him. Together the 4 of them plus the TBS late nigh host sang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and I can’t wipe the smile off of my face after watching that.
If you need to put a smile on your face, this will definitely do it. This is just pure joy!
The cast of Star Wars was on Conan yesterday and Jordan Schlansky got to meet his idol Harrison Ford. The Associate Producer brought out a Millennium Falcon made of Lego for Hans Solo to sign. But then something horribly, I mean hilariously, went wrong.
Why Ford became an action star over comedic one will always be perplexing to me. I find his humor spot on!
