UPDATED: Conan‘s bookers may still be shooting for the Pope and Russian president Vladimir Putin for the first guest spot that is being determined by a fan poll but they went with Hollywood types for the rest of the appearances on the first week of the comedian’s late-night TBS show. Here is Conan‘s first guest lineup:
Monday, Nov. 8 – Guest poll winner (this could turn out to be a joke as the choices include the Pope Putin and the current leader, the elusive Jack Nicholson), Seth Rogen and musical guest Jack White
Tuesday, Nov. 9 – Tom Hanks, Jack McBrayer and musical guest Soundgarden
Wednesday, Nov. 10 – Jon Hamm, Charlyne Yi and musical guest Fistful of Mercy
Thursday, Nov. 11 – Michael Cera, Julie Bowen and comedian Jon Dore

He couldn’t do better than Seth Rogen for his first guest?
Doesn’t matter who his guests are. Love Conan’s humor and the way he interviews. Can’t wait!
Something tells me conans core aud will appreciate these guests far more than they would the pope or putin.
Pope, putin!!! Com’on conan’s not that boring! Tom hanks always a classy choice. He should have kimmel, letterman and Lopez as one of the first guests, just to piss Leno off:)
Disappointing first guest.
I seriously forgot Seth Rogen even existed before I read this,
Love the fact Tom is the 2nd guest as he was on the Tonight Show.
As we all know Tom invented “Coco” that fateful night.
I wold never watch Carot-head Conan, he’s not patriotic. Jay is the only comic with the guts to wear a U.S. flag pin. Where is Conan’s flag pin? Nowhere to be seen!
Jay rules! (with his flagpin.) All these guests can go to hell because they’re appearing with a non-Republican host.
What, no Jay Leno?!
We watch for Conan… doesn’t matter who the guests are. Conan always gives the best interviews
No matter who his guests are, I won’t be watching!!! Don’t need any more juvenile humor from this idiot!! Just saying….
Wow. Just. Wow.
I still think the cast of the live action Fat Albert movie would have been the best first guests
Conan is the anchovy of talk show hosts, and I can understand why some people hate watching him, even though some of us can’t really imagine watching anything else on TV.
But I think that, whatever else is right or wrong about the guy, he’s extremely patriotic. He would like nothing better than to be Abraham Lincoln (a Republican!) and protect all of us in TV land from bad guys.
It’s scary to see how people on the creepy right have started gunning for people like Conan, Colbert and Jon Stewart, even though all three hosts (and, to be fair, Leno and most of the other entertainment show hosts) try to show respect to people on the right as well as on the left.
wearing a flag pin doesn’t make you patriotic…
what part of “no one finds this show funny anymore” did the conan crew not understand…your ratings sucked because no one was watching now you go floundering in cable and still will not get ratings…a polished turd is still a turd…conan reminds me of the guy at the party you hope doesnt come up to you and annoys you…
Seth Rogen is awesome what’s with you guys? The fella has been busy making Green Hornet and he slowed down his acting roles as he thought he was doing too much. he thought he was getting stale. He’s great in Knocked Up, 40 Year Old Virgin, Superbad(which he co-wrote). Sure Pineapple Express and Zack and Miri weren’t the greatest but still the mans awesome and very funny
Seriously…. his patriotism is based on the wearing of a 75-cent pin (manufactured in China)?
“wearing a flag pin doesn’t make you patriotic…” No, but it’s a good start.
Michael Cera? Really???? Whats he going to talk about? Being a box office can of repellent?
Week two: TBS’ own Tyler Perry and Andy Griffith!
All of these guests are safe and BORING!! And the music guests are YAWNERS! That’s why no one watches late night talk shows anymore! Except for RED EYE!
Please let this show BOMB! There’s a reason The Tonight Show tanked and it had nothing to do with Letterman or Leno. Conan: Unfunny. Very Unfunny
Totally agree. What is he going discuss? Maybe Jennifer Aniston and him have appeared in more box office duds than any other two people on the planet?? Apparently, mumbling and starring at the ground qualifies as acting. Please, go away.
