IS CONAN MOONLIGHTING AT CBS? OR DOES HE HAVE A YOUNGER BROTHER?
New York's local CBS affiliate, WCBS, just got a new weatherman named Lonnie Quinn. According to the linked-to post, he's a former soap star. Is it me, though, or does Lonnie Quinn look like Conan O'Brien completely maxed out on Botox? Quinn was formerly a Miami weatherman after he left the soaps, so that might explain the tan/fake-tan factor.
I'd love to see the two of them in a room together. It's too bad they're not on the same network, or they could recreate that "I Love Lucy" scene from the episode where Lucille Ball and Harpo Marx do some mimed mirror schtick. In lieu of some old vaudeville though, I'd be content to watch Quinn and O'Brien duke it out in some old-school Irish bare-knuckle boxing. Or as we call it in the real world: a big 'ol sissy slap fight!

Lonnie is a bit more conventionally attractive. In person, Conan's face has all these angles... he's very striking.
And it looks like Lonnie can get a slight tan.

Quinn's time in Miami would have given him more than enough time to master the art of fake tanning. I'm getting a feeling about "The Departed 2: This Time It's Network" . . .
