BREAKING: Conan O'Brien Returning to Late Night at TBS

Conan O'Brien will be returning to late night TV in November, according to news reports and the comedian himself. But Conan's return won't be at Fox, as many people guessed, but at at TBS. That network currently has George Lopez's talk show at 11 pm; when Conan O'Brien arrives, he will take over that time slot and Lopez will move to midnight.

In a statement O'Brien said, "In three months, I've gone from network television to Twitter to performing live in theaters, and now I'm headed to basic cable. My plan is working perfectly."

Apparently Fox thought it might have trouble convincing its affiliates to go along with Conan O'Brien at 11 pm, because the stations make good money from the reruns they air at that hour. TBS had initially been cool to the idea of going after O'Brien, but talks heated up in the last few weeks.

Get Tickets Now for the Conan O'Brien Tour - "Prohibited" at Radio City

We've all been wondering what Conan O'Brien's been up to since leaving The Tonight Show (besides growing a beard and following one person on Twitter). We now have the answer: Coco's been gearing up for a tour of live shows, and it will be coming to New York's Radio City Music Hall on June 1st and 2nd.

The Conan O'Brien tour, which has the catchy title "Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television," will feature Andy Richter and the former Tonight Show Band. It'll be just like the The Tonight Show, only live on stage!

You can get tickets for the Conan O'Brien tour shows at Radio City here, and they are on sale now. Prices range from $44 to $84.
