Here’s a sneak peek of The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien set!

It’s not quite completed, but it’s getting close. It’s coming to life at the new Stage 1 at Universal Studios.

Andy Richter is set to once again be paired with O’Brien, just like the old days. He was on The Late Show with Conan O’Brien from 1993-2000 and is set to be the announcer on the new show, set to air on June 1st.

Richter says of the new Tonight Show set,

“I don’t think it’s going to blow anybody’s mind or anything. It kind of evokes Art Deco, and what I like about it is it reminds people a little bit of Rockefeller Center. For me, it’s almost a subliminal ramping up and acknowledgment of the history of The Tonight Show. Also red hair looks nice against blue. So there’s a lot of blue.”

The stage is twice the size of Conan’s old Late Night studio in New York, and with a 25-foot-high doorway it’s big enough to fit even the tallest of guests and/or animals.
