TBS seems like a very weird channel to land on.

Tyler Perry presents The Conan O'Brien variety hour starring Tyler Perry.

Conan's a bigger star, it's only expected he'd get top billing. But I think a late night block with Conan and Lopez is going to be great. I hearby dub them "Copez"

Oh well, broadcast tv's loss in cable network's gain.

Congrats to Conan, can't wait till near Thanksgiving to see his show.

But when Leno's a bigger star and nobody really thought he deserved to come on before Conan.

That wasn't really a matter of who was the bigger star. conan's show was taken from him and given to someone else. His option was change the time slot of the show he hosted, which has had the same time slot for so long, or leave the network and let Leno have it. It's a completely different scenario than this. Lopez's show hasn't been on the air and in the same time slot, nor has it been a legendary show since before any of us were even born. Unlike what is now Leno's show.

Plus, Leno's show was canceled due to bad ratings. And why does it once again have to turn in to Leno vs Conan. let it go people.

Not the network I was expecting, but glad to know he has a new show lined up. I hope most or all of the staff from his previous shows are able to join him.

Yes, agreed.

Sounds fantastic. Nobody our age watches network TV anymore outside of sports because it caters to idiots. Conan's humor--while still brilliant--was seriously neutered by NBC's puppet heads and focus groups. On TBS, he'll own his show and can pretty much do whatever he wants, which is fantastic because the looser Conan's show gets, the funnier he becomes.

Reports of his comedy tour have been coming in all day. Triumph lives, as does the Walker Texax Ranger Lever (now rechristened the "Chuck Norris Plays Urban Cowboy Lever LOLOLOL), and the newly renamed "Self Pleasuring Panda". Got third row seats for next month. We saw Conan's fifth LA show back in June last year after E3, and now one of his tour stops is 3 miles from my house. Can't. FREAKING. wait.

Can't wait for November!

Most of them are on the road with him right now, so no worries.

What?! That has nothing to do with who watches network TV and who doesn't. How can you NOT see what you said is an idiotic blanket statement? Really?
