Hello, my name is Conan O’Brien and I may soon be available for children’s parties.
Seriously, welcome to NBC where our new slogan is: “No longer just screwing up prime time”.
I’ve been giving this situation a lot of thought – this is true – when I was a little boy, I remember watching the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson and thinking: ‘Someday, I’m gonna host that show for 7 months’.
NBC says they’re planning to have the late night situation worked out before the Winter Olympics start. And trust me, when NBC says something – you can take that to the bank!
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is still under fire for remarks he made about President Obama’s “blackness.” Sources say Reid could face Congressional censure, or even worse…be promised the “The Tonight Show” at 11:30.
