Conan Takes His Late Night Antics to CablePosted on Apr 12, 2010
Late night chatterbox Conan O’Brien, whose career woes briefly made him the perfect entertainer for a nation of unemployed people, is headed back to work. TBS, which already has a late night show helmed by George Lopez, managed to secure the rights to Conan’s yuk-yuks ahead of Fox. At least two analysts think it’s a great idea. TBS doesn’t have the audience of the broadcast networks, but then neither did O’Brien (ouch). Plus, O’Brien’s offbeat humor is better suited to the looser restrictions of cable. O’Brien’s show will be on at 11 p.m., Monday through Thursday. It kicks off in November. —PZS Sources: Rolling Stone, New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, Conan O’Brien (Twitter)

“O’Brian will never make it on TV because he is not funny?”
He was on TV?
I always found him refreshingly funny, because he is different.
Is TBS owned by Mrdoc like Fox? If not I am glad, and will look forward to his not funny show in November!
Ron, you work for NBC?
Conan O’Brien may be to some on TV what Sahara Palin is to Tea bag Politics! Guess I may be a Tea bag TV fan!

O’Brian will never make it on TV because he is just not funny and has no on camera presence no matter how hard he tries..his on camera antics are asinine his looks wont win him any prizes his overall demeanor is strange. He should consider himself lucky to have made so much money for so little talent.
