Conan O'Brien is stepping away from late-night.

WarnerMedia announced on Tuesday that "after an extraordinary 28 years as a late night television host," O'Brien will end his TBS show Conan in 2021. The late-night talk show will wrap up at the conclusion of its tenth season. O'Brien is now heading to HBO Max for a new weekly variety series, and he'll also continue his Conan Without Borders travel specials.
