Not Quite Soy Jizzum But Still A Face Palm

Oh, Good Day New York. If it's not wondering about soy byproducts, it's something else to cause awkward moments. This morning, co-anchor Greg Kelly (son of the Police Commissioner) tried to chat with Colin Quinn about the old days of the MTV game show, Remote Control. Unfortunately, Kelly went too far and asked how Ken Ober is doing—not realizing, perhaps, that Ober died last year. Gawker has video of Quinn informing Kelly that Ken Ober is dead. Further, Quinn says Ober died "like three months ago" but Ober died last November. Anyway, Kelly actually did a face palm. (Also, but not as sad, no one remembers Kari Wuhrer's last name.)

Judging by the effort Quinn put into his outfit, I'd say he might be hanging with Ober pretty soon.

Definitely. The way you dress can lead to death.

Great research before the interview, schmucks

Knowing about every single person that Colin has ever been involved with professionally for the past 20 years is not in the "research" one does for an interview.
