HuffPost
The former late night host revealed why it was "so comforting" to "screw around" with his celebrity friends.
Former late night host Conan O’Brien has explained how some dark humor and Jason Bateman helped him grieve the deaths of his parents.
In a recent interview on his “Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend” podcast, Will Arnett looked back on his text exchange with O’Brien after the death of his father, Dr. Thomas O’Brien, last December.
“I said, ‘Hey, listen. I’m sorry to hear about your dad’s passing, sending love from our family to yours,’” Arnett began. “And you wrote, ‘Thank you, Will. To be honest, I blame Bateman.’”
“For the death of my father,” Conan O’Brien added.
Arnett recalled texting the former late night host back.
