Exclusive First Look: 'Conan' falls into the Gap

conan-obrienImage Credit: TBSNo one knows what the format of Conan O’Brien’s upcoming TBS talk show will be exactly, but after previewing some exclusive promo pics, our esteemed, scientific guess is: Gap commercial. Conan’s looking super-casual in a zip-up sweater and facial scruff. Is relaxed-fit Conan too cazh for cable? We say no! After the break, EW.com’s exclusive first look at the many faces (and legs) of Conan.


100 Percent Pure Yearn


Where’s my crotch?

There’s my crotch.

Oh, you wanna see it again?

Not yet! Try him in less than a month. Conan premieres Monday, Nov. 8 (TBS, 11 p.m. ET).

What do you think of this stool sample?

    And what was the point of this?

    • Alex Getts

      To show that Conan is awesome.

      • Donna Imwithcoco

        Exactly.

      • jules

        Yes indeed he is…rawr!

    • LOL

      I’m with Coco!

      • Donna Imwithcoco

        All the best people are. The rest are, as Jordan would say, “irrelevant”.

      • kristoferfer

        god…do you think he’s getting sick of being called Co-Co yet. god, that really is a terrible nick-name…

      • Brian

        When Tom Hanks first said “Coco” on the second ep of Conan’s Tonight Show, Conan immediately registered his dislike of it, and said as much (playfully) every time the name came up afterward. He even said (months before the eventual fiasco), laughing and shaking his head, that the name would follow him to his grave, “and not in a good way” — or something like that. Little did he know then how big/important the nickname would become.

      • Jo

        Brian, he said his tombstone would inevitably be mistaken for someone’s pet. I don’t like the name, but whatever, I guess. Also, if you remove all but Conan’s mustache, he looks like Minnesota Vikings’ head coach Brad Childress. Get rid of it, Irish (I say it playfully) – it was okay during the writers’ strike. No more.

      • bob

        ummm no. conan does not look like brad childress. childress is BALD. can’t you see conan’s beautiful locks of hair?!

      • kitty

        have you seen conan from the back lately? those locks are definitely thinning. he may need a comb-over to the rear soon.

        as for coco, i don’t think he would have allowed his writers to continue the harassment (as they did in the twitter tracker segments) if he despised it that much.

    • maryb889

      jfms777: ::shrug:: I don’t know…

    • Chaz Winterbottom

      So you could make a pointless comment.

    • RYAN

      THe point was to get people liek you to watch leno and the retard on cbs do there failing talk shows until they need a bed pan.

    • Andrew M

      The same as all other photo shoots.

  • Nan

    ????

  • Andre

    “cazh”?

    • Laura

      It’s short for “casual.”

      • Andre

        I guess I’m not hip enough to read EW. I tend to spell out what I want to say if my intention is being understood by an audience outside of my ‘inside joke’ circle of friends.

      • Katja

        Relax, Andre – using “cazh” is not an inside joke for friends. It’s a word that many people use. If you had just googled “what does cazh mean?” you would have quickly found out. I don’t mean to judge anyone for not knowing a slang word or pop culture anything (shoot, I’ve googled him a couple times and I’m still not positive who on earth Bruno Mars is), but it’s just so easy to find out when you have a question.

      • Brian

        I’ve been saying cazh for years. Totes bizz cazh.

  • Hombre

    Conan will fail miserably on TBS. No one cares about his new show. I’d rather spend a quiet evening having birds claw out my eyeballs than watch this drivel!

    • Well….

      But apparently it’s fine for you to look at pics of him and read articles about him…….

    • Diana

      As you wish… birds coming your way.

    • Birdie

      I’m sure lots of others would want to see that, too Hombre. And then watch ‘Conan’.

    • Zellers

      If by “no one cares” you mean “his fanbase is chomping at the bit” then I agree.

    • @Hombre

      You go do that, Squidward.

  • Amy

    Oh look. The spammers have now added smiley faces. I really cannot stand them.

    • Dani

      Oh god, Conan sure can rock a sweater. I cannot freaking WAIT for him to be back on my tv!

  • juicyfruit

    Can’t wait to see Conan back in action. I wonder if Will Ferrell will be his first guest.

    • Andrew M

      To promote Megamind maybe?

  • Brian

    WOO HOO! Can’t wait for November 8.

  • Jimminy Glick

    I think the newest promo I saw on TBS made what the format was pretty clear. He said ru ready for a whole new late night? Me neither. Sounds like he’ll be keeping the same format, and yeah thats alright with me.

  • Estie Ross

    What can I say ?
    “Your the Man, Conan, Your the Man”
    Looking forward to your show !

  • Raven_Moon

    I can’t wait! I’ve missed Conan on my TV.

  • cat

    put conan on a cover!

    • Donna Imwithcoco

      He so better be on a cover!

  • Amy

    Looking forward to seeing Conan back in action!

  • Toby

    Why does his hair look like it is auditioning for a part in the sequel to “Something About Mary”?

  • Karen N

    This is awesome! Thanks for running this, EW! :-D

    There had better some sweet pics in the print issues coming up!

  • Mary Zanone

    This might be the only shameless hussy that I love.
