The lanky wonder’s recent Baywatch (and Rocky III…and, with those sunglasses, possibly David Caruso)-inspired promo got me to GO ON A JOG. First one of ’09! That’s so sad — almost as horrifying as the way the clip cuts off. Press play below.
Do I know nothing about running, or does Conan O’Brien have incredible form? I keep pressing pause at 0:17 so it looks like he’s floating. This is just weird. I should delete all of this.
It’s not referencing BayWatch. It’s a spoof of the Rocky III training montage (hence the Eye of the Tiger theme song). The only thing that would have made it better would have been if Carl Weathers was running beside him.
Carl Weathers was too busy getting free refills at Burger King.
O’brien needs to spoof Caruso as Horatio Cane on CSI:Miami and he needs to do it stat!
the vampire line in the other promo cracks me up every time.
Meh. I hear that song and only think of another great man on TV – Jensen Ackles.
