While Conan may be leaving us for the sunny skies of Los Angeles, we still all have televisions, so it's not like he's going anywhere, really. On that note, there are some more details that have just been released about his new Tonight Show gig, NBC says his old pal Andy Richter will be the announcer! It's been nearly 9 years since the two paired up, and Richter will get some on-screen time, too, as the network notes he'll also participate in comedic pieces. O'Brien said this of his old right arm: "Andy is one of the funniest people I know and we've maintained a close friendship since he left Late Night. We have a proven chemistry that will be an incredible asset to The Tonight Show. I'm looking forward to working with Andy on a daily basis again, particularly since he owes me $300." Look for the two of them on a small screen near you starting June 1st!
