Peter Weller on Fringe and The Robocop Reboot

Tonight, Robocop himself, Peter Weller, is guest-starring on Fringe. To promote the hugely geeky stuntcasting event, we hopped on a media conference call with the lovely man to hear all about the episode, how wonderful the cast and crew are, and why he thinks Darren Aronofsky's Robocop movie could suck. Very scientific highlights after the jump.

Before Jennifer Love Hewitt whispered to ghosts and lulled them into a sense of peace and tranquility with her heaving bosom, Matthew Fox tried the same thing, and it went about as well as you'd expect.

Treme: Brilliantly Written... with a Few Caveats

Post-Katrina New Orleans gets the David Simon treatment with HBO's Treme, a new series about one of the city's neighborhoods trying to rebuild after the disaster. The pilot aired last night, and at 80 minutes, it was a lot to take in, but much of it was pleasantly surprising. I expected it to be good, of course, considering the pedigree behind it and many of the actors cast (does it get better than Clarke Peters, Melissa Leo and John Goodman?), but I was blown away mainly by how joyful it managed to be despite the subject matter.

Here are some of the offers on the table that Conan felt it necessary to walk away from.
