Conan O’Brien Bids Farewell To Late Night Show (Video)

Conan O’Brien

Last night marked the end of the Late Night Show with Conan O’Brien.  After 16 years Conan O’Brien is moving on. He will be taking over the helm for Jay Leno as the host of the Tonight Show beginning June 1.

Conan spent his last few shows tearing apart his set and reminiscing about some of his favorite shows.

Will Farrell and John Mayer stopped by as well as the White Stripes.  Old O’Brien sidekick Andy Richter also showed up for the farewell show.

“There are people that have hosted these kinds of shows who are better than I am.  Nobody has enjoyed it more than I do.  It’s an incredible, amazing honor to do this show for you people.  We’re going on to this next gig, and sometimes I read that it’s time for Conan to grow up because he’s going to 11:30.  I assure you, that’s just not going to happen.  It can’t.  This is who I am, for better or for worse.”

Taking over for Conan will be former star of Saturday Night Live, Jimmy Fallon.  Funny man Fallon will start his new gig on March 2nd.

Check out two videos of memorable Conan moments below. Also an unscripted Q & A with Andy Richter and O’Brien.
