“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,”

In a surprising move and after a whirlwind ten day negotiation, Conan O’Brien has signed a deal to host a late-night talk program starting in November on cable channel TBS.  This move will push back current host George Lopez’s Lopez Tonight show to a midnight start time. (with Conan starting at 11pm)

Its shocking that the once darling of late-night, has now been regulated to cable television.  I give Conan credit for one of the funniest quotes ever (above).

This signing happened after speculation surfaced that Fox was having trouble convincing its affiliates to add O’Brien’s show.

This could possibly be one of the biggest fall from graces in television history.  It’s a large uphill battle to climb but if Conan can make it work, his stock will be at an all-time high for Fox or bigger paychecks in the future.

I can’t find any details about contract length or dollar amounts…Which makes me wonder if Conan has any outs in the contract.

It Could Be Worse…Conan O’Brien

People are going to get anger, but I’m just going to say it…Will Ferrell is just not that funny anymore.  At one time, Ferrell was comedic genius but his time has passed.  He had a golden opportunity to have a very memorable moment on Conan O’Brien’s last Tonight Show, be he blew it.  His Lynard Skynard impression was just not funny.

Who planned the military flyby at the BCS National Championship is an idiot.  It was dark out and no one could see the planes at night.

When white guys listen to rap music in their car, please leave your imaginary guns at home.

Heidi Montag from the Hills had major plastic surgery in her early twenties.  But Alex likes the fact that her album only sold 1,000 copies which is less than the amount of people who watch this show!
