I saw this guy when I went to see The Tonight Show last year. He was the comedian at the end of the show, and he was hilarious. Conan and the staff liked him so much, they hired him on to be a full time writer. I'm glad to see he is still with the staff and will be part of the new show on TBS
Conan O’Brien’s new TBS talk show was a hit with young viewers Monday night, delivering an audience with a projected median age of just 30. Conan – which featured guests Seth Rogen, Lea Michele and Jack White – was watched by 4,155,000 viewers.

I had to see how that related to other shows on at the same time. Very impressive for a cable channel. Especially considering he beat out Leno.
The 11 p.m. "Conan" rounded up 4.2 million total viewers, according to early data from the Nielsen Co. That soared straight past NBC's "Tonight Show with Jay Leno" (3.5 million) and CBS' "Late Show With David Letterman" (3.4 million), both of which start at 11:35 p.m. Perhaps of more interest to late-night connoisseurs, however, was that in head-to-head competition during his hour-long time slot, "Conan" put a serious dent in the "Comedy Central" power block of "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" (1.3 million) and "The Colbert Report" (1 million). Last Monday, "Daily Show" delivered 1.9 million viewers.
