Conan's to Leave NBC Finalized

[Demon_Skeith]

And it's done! The Wrap now reports that Conan O'Brien and NBC have come to terms on his departure and O'Brien is getting $30 million as part of his settlement - though other sources say it could be as high as $40 million. The deal still needs to be signed, and of course, everyone is waiting to hear how long O'Brien has to wait before he is free to do a new series.

Also still to be announced is O'Brien's final day on The Tonight Show, but most assume it will be next Friday, the 22nd.

I think he'll get a new job on another channel. But It may take a while.

I'd really like it if jay continues all of his new routines,and new stage. But I don't know if that's possible, atleast not the stage.

right now they are saying he is going to, fox, ABC, or maybe comedy central.

 

[froggyboy604]

Comedy Central might be best for his career since it is a comedy channel, and his show won't be affected by major news events.
