Culture: Diehard Conan fans fight Leno on all fronts – including Hulu

  • Yeah, that’s one way to handle Leno angst. Some smart Conan fans on Hulu have been tagging episodes of The Tonight Show to trash on the guy who got “The Tonight Show” back. While it’s funny, it’s also against Hulu’s own terms. Still pretty funny. source

Culture: Protip: If you build an effective propaganda poster, Conan will pay you

  • Nice deal, dude! One guy who definitely deserves a payday is artist Mike Mitchell, whose “I’m With Coco” illustration is up there with Shepard Fairey’s oft-litigated Obama “Hope” poster in terms of iconic status. Mitchell licensed rights to Conan’s people for the image (currently getting used on O’Brien’s tour), and he made out with a pretty hefty payday. It’s like he won the lottery. source

Culture: Jay Leno has been in a situation like Conan’s before

  • NBC is like a guy with two girlfriends who doesn’t know which one he’s going to marry on Jan. 15. And the longer you wait, the madder they both get.
  • Jay Leno • In a 1992 interview with the New York Times, where he made a big to-do about potentially losing “The Tonight Show” to David Letterman. Sound familiar, Jay? Just sayin’. source
