The final weeks of the TBS show will feature a
line-up of special guests, culminating in an extended hour-long
finale recapping his 11-year run.
"The plan is to re-emerge on HBO Max sometime in the near future
with I think what will be my fourth iteration of a program,"
O'Brien said at the start of "Conan" on Monday.
WarnerMedia said O'Brien's HBO Max show would move away from a
traditional talk show format.
Known for his clever comedy, often self-deprecating and awkward,
O'Brien is the current longest serving nightly late-night talk
show host in the United States, having started his career in
1993 when NBC tapped him to take over from David Letterman as
host of the Late Night franchise. He has won four Emmy Awards
and six Writers Guild Awards.
