TV Tonight: Hope For Haiti Now and Conan’s Last Show

It’s a big night of TV for a good cause: Hope for Haiti Now is taking over your television set and airing on every major network. You think I’m exaggerating? Check out What to TiVo . The show is reportedly on track to being the most widely distributed telethon in history , and with George Clooney pulling the strings to orchestrate the entire event, it’s sure to feature one big name after another. He’ll be hosting the two-hour program from Los Angeles, with Wyclef Jean taking over coverage in New York and Anderson Cooper in Haiti. The evening includes performances by Beyonce, Madonna, and a group song by Rihanna, Jay-Z, and U2’s Bono and The Edge, among other artists and A-list stars. To top it off, Clooney himself is reportedly donating $1 million of his own money during the telecast. Proceeds will benefit The American Red Cross, along with

several other relief efforts. Plus, as a special partnership with the show, iTunes is letting customers pre-order a full-performance album, the video telecast, or individual songs starting today to benefit the cause. After you do your part, keep the TV going til late-night for the final farewell show for Conan O’Brien on The Tonight Show . Following a run-around couple of weeks with NBC’s back-and-forth negotiations dance , it was finally confirmed that this evening will be Coco’s last as host. His final guests reportedly include Tom Hanks and Will Ferrell, but I’m sure we’re in a few surprise appearances and special skits so he gets a proper sendoff - well, at least until he pops up on another network come Fall (on FOX, perhaps?).
