Conan O’Brien is making a life change. After a decade hosting the TBS nightly talk show “Conan,” O’Brien and WarnerMedia have announced they are extending their partnership by giving the host his own series on HBO Max.
Not much is currently known about what the new series will look like, though it is being described as a weekly variety show. “Conan” will conclude on TBS in 2021 while his travel special, “Conan Without Borders,” which started in 2018, will continue.
“In 1993 Johnny Carson gave me the best advice of my career: ‘As soon as possible, get to a streaming platform.’ I’m thrilled that I get to continue doing whatever the hell it is I do on HBO Max, and I look forward to a free subscription,” O’Brien said in a prepared statement.
“Conan’s unique brand of energetic, relatable, and at times, absurdist, comedy has charmed late-night audiences for nearly three decades.
