Conan lands at TBS
It’s just across the wires. The NYT says Conan O’Brien will move into his new TV home in November.
The program will air Mondays through Thursdays at 11 p.m. Eastern, shifting TBS’ “Lopez Tonight,” starring George Lopez, to midnight.
It’s all part of the effort to brand TBS as cable’s home for comedy. The outlet’s tagline is “Very funny.”
No Fox? As it was explained to us, there was no guarantee that an O’Brien talk show on Fox at 11 could get more than the required 60 per cent clearance on Fox stations. So Coco was no go at Fox.
