The red haired comedian served as host of the late night talk show for six months before being replaced by Jay Leno.
Who says you can’t go home again?
Conan O’Brien will make a long-awaited (if not slightly awkward) guest appearance on THE TONIGHT SHOW WITH JIMMY FALLON on Tuesday, April 9.
The 60 year-old comic will be promoting his new streaming series CONAN O’BRIEN MUST GO.
O’Brien famously spent six months as host of the NBC late night show from 2009 – 2010. He replaced — and then was very publicly replaced by — Jay Leno.
The episode will also feature actress and socialite Nicole Richie and musical guest Benson Boone.
CONAN O’BRIEN MUST GO premieres April 18 on Max.
