D-O-SINGLE-G: This blog's official Favorite Conan O'Brien Character, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, will finally release his long-awaited debut album , "Come Poop With Me," on October 7, according to MTV.
Originally titled "Songs in the Key of Poop" (Stevie Wonder probably sued; imagine trying to explain Triumph to a blind man), the album will likely feature songs the dog has performed before (such as "Underage Bichon") and will include guest appearances by Adam Sandler, Jack Black, Horatio Sanz, Subway's Jared Fogel, and Conan himself. I smell Grammy!
ONE MORE THING: The Conan 10th Anniversary Special was classic, of course, but I was perplexed by the inclusion of the character of Vomiting Kermit, an actual Kermit the Frog puppet who perpetually, uh, vomits. How the hell they managed to get permission from the Jim Henson people, I'll never know.
