Before They Get Stale: Ricky Gervais, Simon Pegg and Conan O'Brien
Ricky Gervais apparently wrote a children's book and it's being turned into a movie. It's called Flanimals. Isn't that also the name of a children's yogurt? [Variety]
Henry Winkler talks about the Arrested Development movie, "First of all, there is not a human being… who does not stop me on the street and say, 'Is there gonna be a movie?'…Mitch told us all that he is writing it this summer." [AV Club]
The King of Kong's Steve Wiebe set a new high score for Donkey Kong Jr. Will this man's son ever get his butt wiped? [Joystiq]
David Wain says, "everything I’ve done is just comedy, and Role Models leans a little more towards the mainstream and Stella leans more toward something else, but it’s all just different versions of the same thing to me." [Heeb]
If people talked like they Twittered, I wouldn't say anything for days until I remember I had a talking account and then would say a bunch of things really fast before forgetting again. [College Humor]
Simon Pegg talks about playing Scotty in Star Trek, “We were frisked every night. We had to go through a special props detector. If we were caught stealing, we would be electrocuted." [LA Times]
The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien logo was revealed. It's elegant, subtle, and classic; a suitable logo for a show whose first guest will probably be a dog that poops on people. [TV Squad]
The Simpsons' founding writer Mike Reiss spoke at 92YTribeca and talked about the show's writers, “We all wish we were Bart, but we were Lisa growing up, and we’re all becoming Homer.” [Flavorwire]
Adult Swim's Mike Lazzo talks about creating the "all-night alternative service." Also, apparently Adult Swim will be airing the UK version of The Office. Huzzah! [TV Barn]
