Conan O’Brien isn’t going anywhere. TBS has locked in the late night host through 2018, renewing the series that’s the youngest-skewing hour-long late night talk show (according to the network) currently on air.
“Over the past four years, we have built a terrific relationship with Conan O’Brien and are thrilled to be extending his series for another three years,” said Michael Wright, president, head of programming for TBS, TNT and Turner Classic Movies (TCM). “Conan has not only brought an incredibly young audience to TBS but has also created a digital presence that draws millions of fans to his unique brand of comedy. In addition, Conan has taken his show on the road for memorable weeks in New York, Atlanta and last month in Dallas, and will be breaking new ground next year when Conan becomes the first late-night show to tape at Comic-Con. We couldn’t have asked for a better late-night host or a more enthusiastic ambassador for the TBS brand.”
Conan has been averaging 862,000 viewers this season and has 18 million fans on social media including Twitter, Facebook, Google+, and YouTube.
The late night show airs Monday through Thursday at 11pm on TBS.
