Conan O'Brien (TBS)

Conan was joined by guests Seth Rogan and Lea Michele. Conan brought in the laughs with lines like: "A lot's happened in the news since I went off the air, and I was hoping I could cover it all in one joke.

But then I realized that's like trying to keep an Icelandic volcano from wearing Lady Gaga’s meat dress while a trapped Chilean miner cleans up the BP oil spill, comma, Brett Favre’s penis."

O’Brien’s humor capitalized on his move from the glitzy NBC stage to the hum-drum of basic cable TBS: “I’m going to be honest. It’s not easy doing a late-night show on a channel without a lot of money and that viewers have trouble finding. So that’s why I left NBC.” O’Brien will return tonight with guest Tom Hanks.

Lindsay Lohan’s mother, Dina Lohan, finally found it in her to come clean about her daughter’s drug use. In an interview with "Today’s" Matt Lauer, Dina admitted that her daughter is an addict. When asked about her previous denial, Dina said, “As a mother it wasn’t for me to come to tell the world…about her problem.” Dina even went so far as to suggest that Lindsay and her father should reconnect if it would be beneficial to Lindsay’s recovery. Dina is crossing her fingers that this time Lindsay will recover: “Addiction is difficult…I pray hard…We can only be positive and look to the future to help other families.” (Source: People.com)
