LOS ANGELES – Fox Broadcasting is inching closer to bringing Conan O’Brien back to late night.

Key Fox executives, including Rupert Murdoch, are on board with the plan and would like to finalize a deal in coming weeks so they can make a splash on May 17 when the network unveils its new fall line-up.

How excited are you about the possible return of Conan to TV?  Anyone plan to catch his  "Legally Prohibited From Being Funny On Television Tour,” on  April 16 in Spokane?
