Conan O'Brien Surprises Jimmy Fallon In First NBC Appearance Since Leaving Network

Bitter? Nah!
Conan O'Brien made a surprise appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last night ... and it was the first time the comedian has been back to NBC since his major fall-out with the peacock network back in January 2010.
Jimmy now works on the same New York City sound stage that Conan called home for sixteen years. "You know, I was out in New York, I decided to drop by and check out my old studio," Conan told Jimmy after the audience's cheers died down.
"You were here for sixteen years. And then what happened?" Jimmy quipped.
After a hearty laugh, Conan -- who is now based in Los Angeles -- replied:
- "Don't you worry about that. You're a young guy ... it worked out fine. Anyhoo, I came by for a reason, which is I left something here, something important to me. And I haven't had it in a while and I thought since I'm here ... I can get it back. Is that cool with you?"
What was it? Conan's famous prop pup, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. See how Triumph fared in the video above.
Reunited and it feels so good!
















Conan O'Brien can't stop talking about getting the ax from NBC last year, and his latest rant is splashed in the new issue of Fortune magazine. On being replaced by Jay Leno as the host of the Tonight Show, Conan says, "You know that scene in the first Indiana Jones movie where he gets thrown through the truck windshield by a Nazi? I was thrown through the windshield of broadcasting."
