Two-Hour ‘Actors Studio’ for Conan O’Brien

James Lipton, Conan O'Brien/Inside the Actors Studio

Late-night talk-show superstar Conan O’Brien is so huge right now, he’s getting a double-length, two-hour block of time devoted all to him during his appearance on next week’s new edition of Bravo’s Inside the Actors Studio.

When the episode airs on Monday, January 26 at 8pm EST, host James Lipton will ask the NBC staple numerous questions about his showbiz career, ranging from his early days at the Harvard Lampoon to his current gig, and even his stint as a congressional intern. They also cover the stuff in between, such as O’Brien’s tenure writing for Fox’s never-ending cartoon The Simpsons and working with movie star Tom Hanks.

Follow the jump to preview the in-depth interview with a clip featuring O’Brien as he shares the significance of NBC’s long-running sketch-comedy series Saturday Night Live in his life.

    Sorry, Brendan — as far as I know, Bravo and its parent company NBC Universal don’t make transcripts available for Inside the Actors Studio. The most I can suggest is check the network’s online guide for an encore broadcast and watch with the closed captions on if necessary.

    Can you tell me where to get a transcript of this, please? Conan said something penetratingly about live performance versus recorded, referencing the audience expectation and anticipation of something subcinsciously already sorted and selected.

    The Actors Studio had to stoop so low as to have this person on. The most obnoxious, unfunny person on TV. James Lipton must have really been desparate.
