Conan O’Brien Says Goodbye to TBS Show
On the air for more than ten years, Conan O’Brien declared the end of his self-titled talk show on TBS, as previously announced. The final show aired last night, during which O’Brien reflected on his experiences during the past 11 years.
He expressed, “Strive to engage in what you are truly passionate about with individuals you admire, and if you achieve that, it epitomizes paradise on Earth”.
The grand finale showcased highlights from previous episodes, including monologues and conversations with O’Brien himself and a variety of prominent celebrity guests. To mark the occasion, O’Brien was virtually accompanied by his close pal, Will Ferrell, whose visits to the show have evolved into a customary ritual, according to O’Brien. Ferrell playfully extended preliminary farewells to O’Brien for his future venture on HBO Max, and any potential upcoming pursuits if they don’t succeed.
“Though some may argue that six episodes are insufficient, you have packed adequate entertainment in them for another two episodes,” stated Ferrell humorously.
In a callback to his tenure as a writer on The Simpsons, an animated avatar of O’Brien was later joined on stage by Homer Simpson, apparently partaking in an exit interview in his role as an HR representative for TBS. When Homer failed to recognize him, O’Brien reminded him of his occupation as a talk show host.
“Oh, a vanishing breed,” Homer remarked. “There are only about 800 of you left.”

Lastly, on stage with the multi-talented Jack Black for a trip down memory lane, despite nursing a twisted ankle, O’Brien rose to perform an impromptu ode dedicated to him, sung to the melody of Frank Sinatra’s “My Way”.
The specifics of O’Brien’s upcoming project are kept secret, with the program set to be available for streaming on HBO Max sometime next year.
