Andy Richter to Join Conan on THE TONIGHT SHOW
February 24, 2009 by Kath Skerry
Former LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O’BRIEN co-host Andy Richter will be joining Conan once again when Conan takes over as host of THE TONIGHT SHOW in June. Accoring to THR.com Andy has been named the new TONIGHT SHOW announcer. But Richter’s involvement with the show will go beyond just the intro, he’ll be in “comedic pieces” as well according to NBC.
Personally I’m stoked to have Andy and Conan back together. Andy will bring so much to the show without either men being held to a host/co-host relationship. I’m a big fan of Andy Richter and welcome him back to TV on a more regular schedule.

Awesome news for fans of old school Conan, and a fresh jolt to the late night formula, where announcers usually go to disappear. It was a joy watching Conan and Andy share a stage on the final Late Night, and this will help create buzz as we look towards the launch date.
OMFG yay!!!
this is my reward for rockin it on my bar exam today!
TOTALLY LOVE THIS!!!!! I can not wait to see the new Tonight Show! now if Jay would only go away forever…..

What? No Way! Really? I can hardly believe this. This is awesome if it is true. But, what about Joel?
I love you Conan! We’ll follow you wherever you go!
