Don't Know What You've Got Till It's Gone

Conan O'Brien's last show as host of Late Night aired tonight, marking his last commute to work in Manhattan, as well as the loss of one of New York's tallest skyscrapers. The always well-coifed redhead is, as we said below, off to Los Angeles to take over the Tonight Show, putting him into direct competition with New York's reigning king of late night, David Letterman. In the final week, Mayor Bloomberg presented O'Brien with a key, only to reveal that it was, in fact, not a key to the city, but a key to the mens' bathroom at Port Authority. Honestly, we think he got the better deal. We'll miss you, Conan.
