Conan May Turn To FOX!

Wouldn't that be a kick in the ass to NBC???

Since things don't seem to be working over at Team Jay NBC for poor Conan O'Brien, he may be moving his act to a new network - and FOX may be all to happy to take him!

A source over at FOX played it coy when asked about Conan joining the payroll, suggesting that the network is "always interested in late night" and are always "looking to bring great talent to FOX." The thing is, until NBC gives him the official boot, Conan is still under contract, so the insider at FOX say the execs will "just have to see" what happens.

Sounds like an invitation to us Conan!

Why stay with people who clearly have no consideration for your talent and contribution to their network?!

      YOU CAN BET YOUR BOTTOM GODDAMNED DOLLAR THAT IF NBC HAS THE GALL TO CAN CONAN AND NOT JAY, JIMMY, OR CARSON DALY, I WILL NEVER WATCH THAT PIECE OF SHIT EXCUSE FOR A NETWORK EVER AGAIN…



    2. 2

      Is that really the best pic you could get of Conan? I wish he would stay with NBC… maybe do the show 30 minutes after Leno, but it does seem kind of obvious that he hates living in California.



    3. 3

      Conan is WAY funnier than Leno, Leno sucks!!!!!!! FUCK LENO AND HIS 50 FT. CHIN!!!!



    4. 4

      Love Conan but he seriously needs some skin cream.

      Hoping for a compromise worked out at NBC.



    6. 6

      nothing like that has gone down like that yet. fox has shown no interest in adding a 4th talk show to the time slot -they are doing fine with the ratings by broadcasting comedies and other shows.



    7. 7

      I wish I had the problems these guys have!



    8. 8

      he looks reaaally bad for 47



    9. 9

      Conan seems like a decent guy .. he's just not very funny.



    10. 10

      Who cares

      conan is getting royally fucked at NBC. his show is so funny so idk why NBC is doing this to him. i wish he would move to FOX since they actually want him.



    12. 12

      He's a better fit for fox; after all, his first big break was at Fox as a writer for the Simpsons..



    13. 13

      Conan will trash Obama every night, that wont be hard to do, and its funny!



    14. 14

      One of them has to leave eventually because its just getting ugly. I think its best Leno those his 30 minutes and Conan right after for an hour. Then again I doubt it will end up that way and if he isn't happy with that then he should go to FOX which might be a huge gamble for Conan in my opinion.



    15. 15

      fuck you Jay



    16. 16

      WHAT THE F**** IS NBC DOING? I personally like Conan but he decided that he needed to change himself for the new time slot… I like the old Conan better but the new isn't TOO much different. Everyone agrees that Leno's new show is crap especially compared to his old show… So why did they change it in the first place?! Leno - Tonight, Conan - Late Night, Fallon - (please in the name of GOD just kick him back to SNL) But one thing's for sure: MAKE UP YOUR MINDS!!!!!



    17. 17

      I SAY GO! Conan's talent is too good for NBC and its senior citizen viewers



    18. 18

      Conan sucks ass. He was LATE LATE night for a reason and this clearly shows why. Most people don't like his style of humor and his 1980's hairdo. He sucks. Leno is pretty funny as evidenced by his ruling of late night since Johnny Carson.



    19. 19

      CoCo forever!!!



    20. 20

      He should. NBC is horrible.



    21. 21

      I love Conan! At first when Jay took over for Johny it took time for people to warm up to him too. I watched Conan all the time when he was later. Jay should have retired instead of doing a Brett Favre.



    22. 22

      go Jay!….Conan sucks. Too elitist and Harvard-esque.



    23. 23

      go to Fox…. run Conan! you are not being treated like you deserve and NBC is a sinking ship…. put leno on every night at 10…. worst NBC decision EVER!



    24. 24

      dumb ass nbc! jay had his shot :( now its Conans time 2 shine!!!
      the only ppl who watch jay leno r a bunch of senior citizens
      i seriously will not watch nbc again if they fire Conan.
      thumbs down nbc!! VIVA LA CONAN!!



    25. 25

      What talent? All the Leno people switched to Letterman when O'Brien's lame show took over. Leno is being hugely disrespected. O'Brien still would've kept his hour.



    26. 26

      No consideration for his talent?? Really? NBC made him host of the friggin' Tonight Show!



    27. 27

      My 2 cents here. Conan has grown on me after he took over the Tonight Show. He's funny, clever and very smart. I think he's gonna be fine, Fox and NBC will be fine. We gain cause now there's more options on Late night. The Jay Leno Show never worked because Leno was trying to be different but his specialty is the Tonight Show. See, everybody wins. Just one thing, please get rid of Andy Richter.



    28. 28

      bitch has ZERO sex appeal

      Re: ItWasntMe
      Fuck you! isn't past your bed time?



    30. 30

      Conan doesn't engage middle America. His high-pitched voice is annoying and unmanly. His look is odd–that stupid pompadour has to go. He is a Harvard-educated East Coast elite and he will flounder no matter which network he lands with.

      At least Leno has a wider fan base. Frankly, I don't watch either one, but Leno's appeal is broader.



    31. 31

      Fuck NBC and Jay. Conan is more deserving of that spot than jay. I think FOX would be a perfect place for Conan. Jay isn't that funny anyways. Team Conan :P

      I love Conan and will watch him wherever he goes,but I hope he leaves fucking NBC. Leno is a total unfunny bore and should have retired a long time ago.

      Hmm…

      *
      …doesn't worry me none. Leno and O'Brien were never amusing anyway. Both're as boring as a tree stump. And just as interesting.
      *
      Frankly, televised programming, whether on the three networks or on the cable/premium channels is just a whole lot of shit anymore with most of it being all that shitty "reality" show shit.
      *
      To paraphrase Bruce Springsteen, TV's nothing but 500 channels and nuthin' on!

    34. 34

      Did you steal this news from GossipCop?



    35. 35

      I don't know why anyone is surprised–after the way NBC screwed Dave Letterman



    36. 36

      Oh please. Even Conan's not dumb enough to move to Fox where they would tell him exaclty what to do and say and when.

      He's way too liberal for Fox . . . . . .



    37. 37

      "Talent?"???!!! Conan???!!! Stop the jokes, Perez.



    38. 38

      Conan O'Brien should have never been given The Tonight Show. That is NOT his audience and NBC should have known that. His humor is dry and the demographic loyal to the franchise does not get him. He is not, nor ever will be, in the same league as Carson. I say NBC should release him to be on his merry way. Who cares where he goes. Any network that gives Glenn Beck a show deserves a hack like him. Jon Stewart should have gotten The Tonight Show.



    39. 39

      @EdgeBud, you are a fucktard… Jon Stewart??? He's a liberal douche. How could a political host move to The Tonight Show? He's not trying to be Carson he is trying to be CONAN! And if you would ACTUALLY WATCH Glenn Beck's show you would see that what he says simply makes sense. Plus, what the hell does any of this have to do with this post? Please stop stalking Perez and be on YOUR merry way.



    40. 40

      Forget about this particular story. This site really sucks now. I don't think Mario has anything to do with it anymore. My guess is his sister writes it. It's taken a really bad turn. News is old or just stolen from other sites. Does anybody out there know if Perez can be arrested or at least have his site closed down for making sexually suggestive comments about a 17 year old boy (Taylor L) ? It's pretty creepy some of the things he says. Just wondering,,,



    41. 41

      Why does any one care? These shows are pointless, no matter who is the host.

    46. 46

      Jay Leno is SO NOT FUNNY. Go Conan.



    47. 47

      OH my GoSh!!!!!!!!! You HAVE to check out The Giraffe Dance Music Video by Pawl, on you tube. It is HILARIOUS.



    48. 48

      Conan is the only decent late night host. Craig Ferguson is alright at times.
      Jay Leno sucks. He should be on daytime with the soaps.



    49. 49

      Conan should go to HBO or ABC.
      WTF is wrong with NBC just because their network SUCKS they seem to be using him as a punching bag.
      I gave up on Letterman when Conan started his new show and most people I know watch him on line…



    50. 50

      I love you Conan!! You never should have trusted NBC and gone to california. Please go to FOX and Demand you go Back To NYC!!!



    51. 51

      Conan can't get ratings with "The Tonight Show" title so he would do even worse on Fox and Leno can go back to calling his show that. Also, Conan would have to negotiate his release from NBC which means they won't have to pay him what is left on his contract. Seems like NBC should be thrilled.

      Yeah, the site and Mario're pretty damned lame these days, what with all his pathetic, juvenile, unaware self-humiliating fame-whoring, the sad state of posting speed on here, the lack of anything even remotely considered original reporting, the stupid cartoon(s), etc. Really, the list goes on anymore.

    53. 53

      i love conan! he could do the puppet string dance for an hour and i'd be entertained!



    54. 54

      I don't get it if people like Conan so much then how come people don't watch his show? Letterman has been beating him in the ratings ever since he took over even though when Leno had that time slot he beat Letterman everytime. Yet for years I've been hearing oh Conan should take over Leno's time slot so finally NBC does it and he's unsuccessful. In the end NBC screwed Leno because he didn't even want to leave in the first place and Conan because now he looks bad that he couldn't succeed on the 11:30pm time slot. What a mess!



    55. 55

      he's only 47??



    56. 56

      Re: Yellow Peeps – wow, I totally agree. he reminds me one of those funny-but-corny-ivy-league-alums who just tries way too hard to be funny. If worse comes to worse he always has his degree(s) from Harvard to fall back on.



    57. 57

      Conan is a riot and I love the show. I do not know why Leno announced he was going to leave the Tonight Show five years ago only to regret his decision now. I hope that if things do not work out that Conan gets an enormous payout and a new show on another network. Conan is intelligent, funny and better than Leno and Letterman. Letterman is still using the same tired format that he has used for 20 years. Top 10 lists? Why do people watch the old weirdo? Jimmy Fallon's show is unwatchable-he sucks. Conan is the funniest and freshest show. NBC what are you doing?



    58. 58

      I thought that I read that FOX was trying to woo JAY - not CONAN!



    59. 59

      JAY and NBC are liars. Jay changed his mind after saying he was stepping down them competed with Conan. Conan did not have a chance to build his own audience in his new time slot. NBC and JAY suck.

      My first comment was never posted. I guess if you comment on where to steal an update to the story it won't post…



    74. 74

      If Conan does get canned. He will surely have a job as the new crypt keeper. Mans thats a bad picture. Looks like he needs to go back east. the California sun hasn't been to good for him. They really should shake things up and get rid of both Conan and jay Leno. Give the job to Ellen. I love watching that little Lebanese boy.



    75. 75

      Who cares?



    76. 76

      Leno sucks sooooooooooooo badly. I hope Conan walks! He is a billion times funnier then boresville Leno.

      YAY Conan!! Go to FOX! You are way funnier than the other guys!

      Didn't Leno first say he was moving on so nothing like what happened with him and Letterman happens with him and Conan? Leno is an asshole.
