We already knew that comedian George Lopez would be excited about having Conan O'Brien as a part of the TBS late-night lineup, but we didn't know to what extent. During Monday night's episode of "Lopez Tonight," George made it abundantly clear -- having Coco on board will be a thrill. Not only did he mention it to loud applause early in the show, but it also came up in an interview with Chris Rock later.
When Rock asked George about the move, he responded that he was thrilled -- as a matter of fact, he joked that he "[gets] to go to work an hour later. That's like a Latino dream come true."
The lineup of Conan and George Lopez is something that will likely benefit both hosts, as Conan will get a show that fully allows him to be creative and George will receive a substantial lead-in from a guy who comes with his own established audience.
Do you think the one-two punch of Conan O'Brien and George Lopez will work well? Check out the video and let me know your thoughts with a comment below! To view photos of Conan O'Brien's tour debut Monday night, follow the link here.
