Conan O’Brien starts a talk show, he gets Tom Hanks to come by; that’s just the tradition. TBS’s Conan announced it’s first week of guests today, and along with longtime O’Brien stalwart Hanks, he’ll have Seth Rogen, Jack McBrayer (take that, NBC!), Jon Hamm and Julie Bowen. Let’s hope Hanks can avoid being hit by a meteor this time.

    Spoilers for the season finale of Glee below:

    One beef I often have with Glee episodes is that they move too fast, go in too many directions, try to cram in too much at once. You might say that about “Goodbye,” the season 3 finale, but in this case that approach seemed about right. It’s an episode about graduation, and graduation is something that, no matter how much you plan for and anticipate it, still goes too fast. Graduating is something you do, but in the moment it feels like something that happens to you, suddenly and all at once, like going over a waterfall.

    Seth Rogen, Jack McBrayer &, Jon Hamm?
    Who is smoking crack over there?
    Seth Rogen can pound sand, just seeing his face makes America want to punch this douche in the throat!
    Jack McBrayer flat chested chicks are boring….
    Jon Hamm? Really? Even Galifianakis couldn’t make him funny with the help of TWO FERNS!!

    Why not Galifianakis? At least Zach has a personality unlike this list of wet blankets…
