On the night of January 22nd, 2010 Irish-American comedian Conan O’Brien hosted the legendary Tonight Show for the last time. His departure followed fierce negotiations with network NBC’s move to push she Tonight Show’s long-held start time of 11:35 p.m. to 12:05 a.m. to create an earlier slot for a half-hour show with O’Brien’s predecessor Jay Leno. After talks and outcry from O’Brien’s many fans, NBC struck a deal with the comedian, which reportedly granted him $30 million in exchange for leaving the show. On March 1st, 2010 Leno resumed the role of host.
