Watch Peter Dinklage and Lena Headey in Clueless Gamer with Conan
Peter Dinklage and Lena Headey will be on Conan tonight, but check out their Clueless Gamer skit ahead of time.
Last night’s episode of Game of Thrones, “The Door,” was the best of the season so far. It’s true that it didn’t have much to do with Peter Dinklage’s character, Tyrion, but the Half-Man can’t get all the great scenes. It wouldn’t be fair. Still, to promote Game of Thrones’ sixth season, Peter Dinklage and Lena Headey will be on Conan tonight, and the two will participate in Conan’s much-loved Clueless Gamer skit.
Clueless Gamer has Conan play a video game, usually a much-hyped one that is close to release, and he is often terrible at it. That’s all part of the fun. This particular episode has Headey, Dinklage, and Conan test their skills at Blizzard’s first person shooter extravaganza, Overwatch.

Yes, that is Conan atop the Iron Throne. Out of the three, it would appear that Peter Dinklage definitely has the top Overwatch skills, though nobody is a slouch. Clueless Gamer is always a good time, but it’s especially great when there are special guest. Most times Conan is joined only by someone from the developer.
Unfortunately there are no Game of Thrones hints to be found, but it’s enough of a treat that both both Lena Headey and Peter Dinklage aren’t terrible at first person shooters. Both Dinklage and Heady have experience with video game voice over work; Dinklage originally voiced the Ghost character in Destiny (before being entirely re-dubbed by Nathan Fillion) and Headey will voice Lunafreya in the upcoming Final Fantasy XV movie.

Conan’s Clueless Gamer segments have a habit of getting around, and this one will likely have more legs than usual. Conan, featuring both Peter Dinklage and Lena Headey (double the awesome!) will premiere tonight on TBS at 11:00 Eastern.
