If you've been anxiously awaiting November 8 as the day Conan O'Brien finally returns to hosting a talk show, too bad! You already missed his comeback! No, really-- last night Conan premiered Show Zero, an Internet-only short that purports to be the first episode of his new TBS series Conan (which, OK, really does debut November 8).
If you missed it, don't worry, it won't take long to catch up-- the short is only five minutes long, and really is just a condensed version of the show, with a super-short guest interview with The Big Bang Theory star Jim Parsons, a musical performance from Steel Train and even promotional consideration from Diet Coke. There's something charming about the shambling, stuck-together nature of it-- not unlike the Coco Live Cam they had going last week-- but I've got to admit, I was hoping for something a little bigger after the way they hyped it. Either way, a little Coco is still some Coco, so we should be grateful for what we've got. Check out the Show Zero below.
