Conan O'Brien

With the controversy that surrounded Conan O'Brien's departure at NBC he is still a hot topic of discussion.  I know for weeks after the hullabaloo there were "Team Coco" buttons that sprung up everywhere.

Obviously he has a great publicity team and they started working overtime after he left NBC to help find him another job and keep his appeal strong.  TBS felt that Conan is a strong draw and would work well with George Lopez on their nightly lineup.

Conan O'Brien has been advertising himself with "anti-advertising" ads. In one anti-ad he pulls his own stunt driver out of a car rigged with explosives because he has no time to promote his new show, because he's too busy driving off a cliff in a car filled with explosives.

I really think Conan worked well with the controversy and it has made him even more exciting to watch!   I'm definitely Team Coco!!
