One of the most shocking moments on television this season is when Zachary Quinto’s character on The Slap, slaps a kid, who isn’t his own, hard across the face. You can only assume that people will stop him on the street to talk about it and you are right because they do. Then you have to wonder, will they think of him as the good guy Spock from Star Wars or the bad guy Sylar from Heroes. The answer might surprise you.
Yesterday, when Conan O’Brien asked him about it, Quinto had this to say, “The biggest reaction, hands down, that I get is, ‘I would’ve slapped him twice as hard.'” Then he added, “Which I find really really disturbing and amazing.” Other people have told him, “I wish I was there. Like, I would’ve really gotten him. Like, I really would’ve clocked him. That must’ve been great.” All he can do is listen to them and wonder how he can get away from them as fast as possible.
Now, we know how fans reacted to The Slap, Quinto also talked about what made filming that scene easier with Dylan Schombing. Thankfully for Zachary, the kid knew from Star Trek and that brought an ease to filming.
So back to The Slap, what would you say to Zachary Quinto if you saw him in the street about it?
When it comes to the drama, to see what happens next, you will just have to tune into NBC tomorrow at 10p to find out.
Tonight at 11p Conan O’Brien goes where no late night show host has gone in 50 years. He traveled to Havana, Cuba during Presidents’ Weekend and he is sharing his traveling video with us on TBS tonight.
He will give us a look into the culture that has rarely been since the early ’60s. And let’s hope he hasn’t ruined the newly peaceful relations that the United States has with Cuba. I’m not saying the Gringo has, but we’ve seen his remotes and we just need to say a little prayer that we are still all getting along after this show airs!
So down some cerveza, light up a cigar and watch Conan tonight at 11p on TBS from Cuba!
Conan O’Brien has tried Tinder in the past and now he has decided to give Grindr a try. The TBS host got some help from his friend Billy Eichner to make sure he did it right. After trying a few names, FreckleF*cker seemed liked the best way to describe himself in a word. Then it was time for a photo, and he picked the right one. We know that because he was really popular on the app. Eichner told him that Gay men wouldn’t know who he was, and the screamer was wrong. There were a lot of men who wanted to meet the Ginger. There was one guy who caught O’Brien’s eye, so they met up at a parking lot in his ready-to-grind van. Was it love at first sight or will Conan just have to drown his sorrows at Sardo’s, the home of P0rn Star Karaoke? You will just have to watch another funny remote from Conan O’Brien to find out.
And you will want to watch the video all the way through because Conan’s expression when he finds out what lube is and what it’s used for, is awesome. Sadly though, we never found out if he is a bottom or a top. What do you think he is?
One of the biggest scenes in Fifty Shades of Grey is when Christian Grey buys a few items for his Red Room at the hardware store where Anastasia Steele works. So you’d think that hardware stores would take advantage of the success of the movie and have a sale on the items that could be used in the bedroom.
Well one of Conan O’Brien’s sponsors saw the novelty of the idea from the novel and they are selling the tools you need for you to do to it yourself or with your partner(s) in the bedroom at a low low price. It would be hard not to shop at Done Right Hardware to get everything you need to make your bedroom a boudoir.
Conan O’Brien is doing something that no current late night show host has ever done, he traveled down to Cuba this weekend to tape segments for his TBS show that will air on March 4th.
He flew down Havana and took in the sights, sounds and culture of the country. Something that has not been seen on late night since the US Embargo went into effect in the early ’60s. This will be a rare glimpse of the country unlike anything we have seen before. Although news programs and networks have reported Cuba, no Entertainment show has done it in recent history. This is unprecedented, so going there on President’s Weekend makes sense.
Now that we have gotten that out of the way, I can’t wait to see what the Cubans think of the tall, white, red-headed Gringo. If he had one too many cups of Cafe con Leche, their impressions of Americans might be tainted. Hopefully we got a few cigars out of the deal before the episode airs on March 4th.
Although from what Conan O’Brien Tweeted about the experience, I think we are safe. He said, “I just spent the last four days shooting my show all around the city of Havana. I made countless friends and had one of the best experiences of my life. Many laughs, but that could also be the rum. Watch #ConanCUBA March 4th.”
So set your DVRs to record this special episode because this is an hour of television that should not be missed.
