The bigger they are, the harder they fall.
NBC will be airing a repeat of The Tonight Show Friday after Conan O'Brien fell during a skit being taped for tonight's episode and was taken by ambulance to the hospital, the network confirmed to E! News.
"Last thing I remember I was enjoying the play with Mrs. Lincoln, and the next thing I knew I was in bed being served cookies and juice," O'Brien said afterward.
A source says O'Brien was running down a flight of stairs when he slipped and banged his head, possibly sustaining a concussion.
Teri Hatcher and Seth MacFarlane were tonight's scheduled guests.
We hope one of our favorite funnymen gets well soon!
