COOOOOOOOOONAN-->

With the current drought of Conan material, it feels like years since I've been in the "Cone Zone". 'Til now.

Google/Youtube did a 48 minute interview tour de force with the red-headed refugee. It's a great update and a reminder of why he belongs on network television.

SNL - Betty White

Betty White is a legend. There aren't many people left who have been ON television for the entire timespan OF television and she is one of them. In fact, she goes back to the days of radio. Pick a decade of television and she was involved. I can't get over that.

All of this makes it quite impressive and fitting that a facebook petition to get Betty White to host SNL actually succeeded.

The show was pretty good. In particular, I enjoyed the census sketch.

However, for my money this will always be THE census sketch:

You can see the full SNL episode for a limited time here.

The Office... EXTRAS

Here are some Office DVD Extra Feature clips that I hadn't seen before that I thought were really good.

David Brent Goes for a Drive / Archbishop of Canterbury

"Ricky had had one of his great 'IDEAS', as I like to call them..."

If You Don't Know Me By Now (Bloopers)

I love how he clearly knows how ridiculous everything he's doing is. Because he's right.

David Brent Date #2 with Director's Commentary

"Desperate bloke up for it. Any chance?"

Just a Little Poke... There'll Be No More AAAHHHH.

I was excited when I heard that Roger Waters was going to be on. I was disappointed when I found that he's not the musical guest. But, in the end, this is quite a good interview. Instead of the usual "I had a weird experience at an airport recently" celeb chat, Jimmy actually asks some serious and interesting questions about the history of Pink Floyd and some of the myths and legends. I find that when it comes to legendary musical guests, "geeking out" makes for great interviews.

There's no reason to divide this interview into two clips.

Wheel of Carpet Samples Goes Glacial

Before the Roger Waters interview, the Wheel of Carpet Samples just went glacial...

Spoiler Alert: Tonight's mystery sample is "Brown".
