Conan's Triumphant Return

Conan O'Brien hosted the Late Show for NBC for 16 years and garnered a cult following during this process never seen before.

I'm sure you all know the story of how he was made the successor to the late night, Tonight Show. After seven months on the air as the Tonight Show host, he had the show ripped out from underneath him by NBC and given back to Jay Leno.

All I can say is that Conan handled this PR crisis by NBC with ultimate grace and positivity throughout the entire ordeal and has come out stronger than ever.  He has signed on with TBS to bring his late night show to their network and hasn't looked back.

Here is a clip of his farewell speech from his final show on NBC that exhibits Conan's grace and humility:
