Yesterday, Conan O'Brien officially announced his move to basic cable TV station, TBS. O'Brien will bump current TBS late-night talker, George Lopez, to midnight when he assumes Lopez' 11:00p timeslot, but Lopez issued his own statement, saying basically that he was excited to have Coco as a lead-in.
In separate news, Tonight Show with Jay Leno bandleader, Kevin Eubanks, is leaving the show. Eubanks had been with the band for 18 years and called The Tonight Show his home, but said he was ready for a change in his career. According to some sources, Kevin Eubanks is looking to tour and record. His final day is May 28th. No replacement has been named.
