Conan O’Brien Taking Over Tonight Show?
Where have I been? I guess I haven’t watched any of these Late Night shows in a couple years so that may be why I haven’t heard this yet. If I were going to watch one of these shows it would be The Conan O’Brien Show of course. All the rest are terrible. Letterman is tired and stale. Leno is just boring. Conan is the only one worth the watch.
Apparently yesterday was his last show? Interesting. Looks like he will have some time to hit up a Westgate resort for a few months as he doesn’t take over The Tonight Show until May.
“This is where they invented television,” O’Brien told Bush. “This is a temple to broadcasting and I leave this place with a heavy heart. It’s been an amazing home to me. I’ve been doing it for 16 seasons and it’s time to change. I think Eric Clapton said, ‘Change or die!’ You’ve gotta move, you’ve gotta evolve, you’ve gotta change. And I think the L.A. chapter will be fascinating because man, am I a fish out of water in Los Angeles and man, that could make some good television.”
“We’re really excited, we have an amazing set up on the Universal lot and we actually kicked the ‘Desperate Housewives’ out of their studio,” he said with a laugh. “We’ve since made up. And that was fun, let me tell you. But now we’re all friends. We lunch together almost every day.”
