After months of speculation, we’ve finally learned the name of Conan O’Brien’s upcoming late-night show premiering this Fall on TBS. Wait for it …. it’s Conan.

As Mr. O’Brien puts it, the name is “Simple. Pure. Like the man himself.”

We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. Conan premieres November 8.
We'll be watching!

Conan O’Brien has announced the name of his new show premiering on TBS this November 8. It will be called Conaw, er, Conan. He made a video in a barren office announcing the name.
Hopefully the production value of his new show will be a little better than this teaser. Although, you could stick Conan at … read more

[HMG] – Since the Tonight Show was stolen from under him in January, Conan O’Brien has been almost a ghost. But all you Team Coco fans can relax ‘

For those of you who haven’t seen it, check the video above featuring Conan doing the official name release…

In an article via The Hollywood Reporter, it looks like Conan O’Brien has been forbidden to talk trash about his former employer, NBC, during the Emmy Awards, which air on Sunday.

Conan’s former show, “The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien,” is among the Emmy nominees in the Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Series category.

Per O’Brien’s exit contract from NBC, he’s prohibited from making false, derogatory and insulting comments about his former employer.

If he wins, I still look for Conan to get his digs in.  Somehow.

Look for O’Brien’s new show, which will pop up on the TBS network, this November.

Jay Leno’s costly and embarrassing return to The Tonight Show was a gamble that hasn’t paid off for NBC. Not only is he getting much lower ratings than he did before he briefly passed on the crown to Conan O’Brien, but he’s getting lower ratings than Conan O’Brien did during his seven-month stint.

Although Jay routinely beats The Late Show With David Letterman, the new champion of late night is actually ABC’s news magazine show Nightline.

Considering that Jay, who’s got a two-year contract with Tonight, costs twice what Conan did, NBC may have the mind to terminate his run early (like they did with Conan) and go with a cheaper replacement.

But with Conan out, who would that leave? Jimmy Fallon?

Or would they try to pluck one of the other network’s late night hosts, like Craig Ferguson or Chelsea Handler?
I say Chelsea all the way!

Uh, oh NBC!
In the three weeks that Jay Leno on The Tonight Show in 2010 has overlapped with Conan O’Brien’s hosting back in 2009, Jay hasn’t been able to beat Coco’s ratings!
In fact if Jay stays at the ratings he scored last week, he’ll finish below Conan’s ratings for the whole summer!
We bet Conan is [...]
