Triumph presides (TBS)

Not only did the wedding bring in its fair share of human VIPs like Bette Middler, but as it turns out, the ceremony was presided over by none other than Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog, who appeared on Conan last week to review his footage from the event.

The many wives of Conan. (TBS)

We finally took a moment to dive into Maureen Orth's Vanity Fair exposé about Nazanin Boniadi and her relationship with Tom Cruise and Scientology. That was completely wacky, right? Follow-up question: Did the idea of auditioning spouses make you sort of want to join the church of Scientology? No reason, we're just asking. Hey look! Conan did a segment about how he met his wife!

We were always under the impression that CoCo was married to more than one woman, Big Love-style. But maybe that was just wishful thinking.

Ms. Wilson, who stars in the forthcoming Bachelorette, told Conan O'Brien that she and her on-and-offscreen roommate Mr. Lucas had received complaints from neighbors for their loud showtune singing and all-night hot tub splashing. Per Ms. Wilson, the note read: "I can hear everything you say--even the British accents. If you continue to make noise past 10 p.m., I will call the cops. We have rules here in West Hollywood. Seriously."

What else about the characters played by the cast of Bridesmaids could be surprisingly on-point? Are we soon to hear that Rose Byrne is cold and controlling in real life, or that Maya Rudolph is weirdly silent and doesn't do as much as her talent would imply?

Conan O'Brien (The Hollywood Reporter)

The Hollywood Reporter is, today, the beneficiary of a recent Conan O'Brien publicity tour that's seen him getting interviewed by fellow NBC jiltee David Letterman--and it seems like his last publicity tour, complete with a documentary, was less than a year ago! Mr. O'Brien, with a TBS program, lacks the platform of contemporaries like Jimmy Kimmel (on ABC), Craig Ferguson (CBS), or Jimmy Fallon (NBC), or the cultural currency of Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart. Mr. O'Brien does, though, have an interesting narrative, one he's able to access by hanging out with other hosts that hate NBC or by commenting on the now more than two-year-old imbroglio that ended his relationship with the network.

On Jay Leno, Mr. O'Brien says: "He certainly isn't calling me. It's not like he's going to sneak up on me in traffic. He's a guy you see coming from a ways off because he's usually driving a car made of copper that runs on manure and has gas lanterns." The shade-throwing continues, though Mr. O'Brien says that he will likely never speak to Mr. Leno again.

Mr. O'Brien's shows ratings have reportedly leveled off after a long period of erosion and Mr. O'Brien has learned, a bit, how not to come off incredibly poorly in an interview, though he still has the streak of self-pity that colored his last publicity tour: "Tall people getting older is funny because they often don't," he says, because tall people... die sooner, it would seem.

Kardashian and Humphries.

It’s a Kard-astrophe! Only 72 days after reality entertainment star Kim Kardashian and her husband Brooklyn Nets (if that is their real name) NBA star Kris Humphries tied the knot, the duo is now filing for divorce. We really thought these two kids could make it…at least through another season of Kourtney & Kim Take New York.

Poor Kris: he’s apparently devastated over the idea that the love of his life…not to mention his ca-ching money train…is leaving the station so soon. Oh well, what’s the infamous saying? All’s fair in love and Dior.

So New York lost one Kardashian, but gained back Conan O’Brien, who performed live at the Beacon Theatre Monday night. Sounds like a fair trade to us! The fire-haired Coco told audiences that he “came 3,000 miles to do that” – where “that” referred to a visual gag involving a ghost human centipede. We can’t decide what’s more disturbing: that imagery or the fact that we missed it.

You’d think Coco would have roused all of the A-list guest-stars to appear for his NYC re-debut, but fans were (to put it nicely) mildly disappointed to find that the only name worth mentioning on last night’s roster was Mayor Bloomberg. What was he doing at the Beacon talking to Conan? Probably avoiding any rogue Occupy Wall Streeters planning to egg his house. But last night Hugh Jackman was on the lineup, and who doesn’t love the all-singing, all-dancing Wolverine Aussie?

That said, Mayor Bloomberg might not actually be the most frightening thing in the city this week: after CBS aired Morley Safer’s interview with Ruth and Andrew Madoff, we expected half of NYC to be outside the family’s door with torches. Finally, villains that both the rich and poor can loathe alike! What doesn’t divide us unites us. No one seems to believe that poor Mrs. Madoff wasn’t in on her husband’s Ponzi scheme, but we’re willing to entertain the possibility that they had one of those Kris Humphries-type marriages--where half the couple doesn’t even know when they’re about to be served with walking papers, Still, we aren’t heartless,and Mrs. Madoff’s description of her son Mark nearly produced a sympathetic tear or two. But then we imagined her drying her own tears with crisp $100 bills from the money she’s been allowed to keep. To be fair, she’s probably not alone. We imagine Kim Kardashian doing the same thing.

Take a look at some of the other characters caught up in this intellectual property battle. Remember Fun Hole Guy?

Approximately 4.15 million viewers tuned in for O'brien's inaugural TBS broadcast, 3.28 million of whom were in the adults 18-49 demographic that is the gold standard for television advertisers. Last night's episode of the "Tonight Show" was O'Brien's closest competition with about 3.45 million viewers. Letterman drew an audience of 3.39 million. "The Daily Show" and "The Colbert Report" earned an average of 1.1 million viewers apiece.

After his break with NBC, O'Brien was contractually prohibited from appearing on television until this month. But he managed to build a huge following during his exile from the airwaves by playing up his martyr status with a live concert tour and savvy use of social media. O'Brien joined Twitter in February and has since accumulated over 1.8 million followers on the social networking site.

O'Brien's premiere ratings are exactly what TBS was hoping for when they signed him to a five-year contract that was reportedly worth at least $10 million. In a statement on the ratings for "Conan," Turner Entertainment Networks President Steve Koonin called O'Brien's premiere performance "extraordinary."

"Conan’s audience has been very vocal online, and he clearly made a smooth transition from Twitter to TBS,” Koonin said.

The question now is how much of his impressive debut audience O'Brien will be able to retain now that the long-running saga of his exit from NBC has truly come to an end. TBS will probably be happy if he's able to hold on to at least half of the viewers who watched the premiere.

Coco and company have become rabid user of trendy social sites like Tumblr and Twitter. They've dropped more than a few viral videos.

But starting at 1pm today, O'Brien and his team will embark on their most daring internet adventure yet: Coco Cam, a 24 hour show featuring a live stream that mixes behind-the-scenes action with scripted bits.

When Conan gave a speech to commemorate Youtube's fifth anniversary, he took a rather dim view of the interet as a means for entertainers to make money.

"That's not the point of the internet. It's not to make money. It's for someone you've never met, who's a nerd, in Palo Alto, to make money."

But judging by the high quality of Conan's all-time favorite YouTube clips, it's clear the man is an internet addict.
