Tom Arnold, Kevin Hart and Brian Setzer Orchestra

Posted in Conan O'Brien on November 30th, 2005

Conan talks about Finland again tonight, he has another Finnish guest in the audience. Conan says his show is like Beatlemania in Finland. He asks the guy in the audience if that is true and the guys says “Yeah, that’s it” while rolling his eyes, lol. Then he reads some letters. One from a kid that sent him 5 Euros so that he will come to Finland. One that says he hates the US but loves Conan and wants him to come visit. He also got a hat and a drawing of himself in a traditional Finnish woman’s dress.

Tom Arnold (How I Lost 5 Pounds in 6 Years: An Autobiography) comes out wearing a Giants jersey and says the Giants have to win this weekend. They talk about Thanksgiving and how his family is nuts. He talks about his gay brother, Conan asks him why he calls him his “gay” brother. Tom Arnold says because his other four brothers said whenever he talks about his gay brother he has to make sure to say his name, lol. He tells about the movie and he wrote the script because his neighbor hired him to write it for his son who has Cerebral Palsy. It’s an action movie called The Kid and I (the kid was a big fan of True Lies) and it has a ton of cameo’s (Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jamie Lee Curtis and tons more).

Kevin Hart (In The Mix) is on and Conan asks him about how his height has affected his life (he is very short). He says sometimes he thinks that people are thinking something about his height but it’s really in his head. He says he plays the height card like other people play the race card. He talks about dating and how he will never date a woman taller than him because it’s not masculine.

Brian Setzer Orchestra (Boogie Woogie Christmas) is Conan’s musical guest.

Roseanne Barr (Roseanne) comes out and she’s excited that Marguerite Perrin is on because she says that she looks calm next to her. She talks about Thanksgiving and having family at the house. She says she thinks that you should not have to spend holidays with your family that way it will really be a holiday. She talks about her son who is 10. Her son brings home 3 hours of homework a night and she gave a sample of what his homework was today. Jay asks if she follows politics. She says that she is terrified because the world is going to end in June 2006 and then makes a few jokes about the world ending, lol. They talk about Nick and Jessica and Roseanne says she doesn’t even know who they are.

Marguerite Perrin is the lady that went BONKER, NUTSO on Trading Spouses. She says she went on the show so that she could get gastric bypass surgery. She says that they do extensive psychological evaluations for the show. Jay asks about the meltdown and she says it actually was her words and it really happened. She says after living with this new agey family for a week she just exploded. She asked the camera crew nicely 3 times to leave and they wouldn’t so she just went ballistic. Jay asks about the bobble-head doll and if she knows who bought it. Then he tells her he bought it and he gives it to her.

During the whole interview with Marguerite Perrin, Roseanne is sitting there with this look of shock on her face and you know I would think it’s pretty hard to shock Roseanne, lol.
