Late Night with Conan O'Brien
On September 13, 1993, O'Brien debuted on Late Night in the time slot recently vacated by David Letterman. Relatively unknown by the general public, and appearing somewhat awkward and nervous during his monologues and interviews, O'Brien struggled as the show began, but eventually started to build a fan base, along with co-host Andy Richter. Richter left the show in 2000. After O'Brien was replaced by Jimmy Fallon as host of Late NightE! Online: [E! Online: NBC Reveals Conan Exit Date, Jimmy Start Date (January 15, 2009), O'Brien became the fifth host of the Tonight Show on June 1, 2009.The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien
On June 1, 2009, O'Brien began hosting the Tonight Show, along with former sidekick Andy Richter as his announcer. The Max Weinberg 7 also made the transfer, but they added a new permanent member (James Wormworth on percussion) and officially became known as The Tonight Show Band. O'Brien's very first guest was Will Ferrell, and the first musical guest was Pearl Jam. O'Brien has revived several sketches from Late Night, including "Celebrity Survey" and "Noches de Pasion con SeƱor O'Brien." The popular Late Night sketch "In the Year 2000" was changed to "In the Year 3000" for The Tonight Show.-
