As we get closer to the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) 97th Oscars set to hit ABC and Hulu on Sunday, March 2nd, Emmy-winning comedian, writer, producer, former late-night host, and all-around comedy icon Conan O'Brien – the ringmaster for the night's festivities – is serving up our first teaser for the big night. But in the clip you're about to see (waiting for you above), it looks like O'Brien and Oscar are going through a bit of a rough patch in their relationship. Staying out all night… serious trust issues… getting calls from Martin Scorsese on the DL… things like that. Here's hoping they can pull it together in the next ten days… maybe see a marriage counselor…
