Conan O’Brien has paved the way for other curious American tourists during his four-day visit to Havana. Conan’s stated purpose is’ to meet the people and try to make friends.’ Our palest, whitest comedian is off to a good start in the first episode…If you don’t count yappy little dogs.
I’m particularly intrigued to see this country which has been out-of-bounds to Americans for fifty three years. Hey,’Thanks Obama’ Truly! If traveling to Cuba isn’t an option, seeing Cuba through Conan’s eyes is the next best thing. I suspect the Cuban people now believe they have seen everything; although some didn’t believe Conan, when he told them he was an American TV star.
The show promises to be a fun glimpse of Cuban life, and of a country that has been a mystery for decades.
