Posted Sep 25th 2009 11:12PM by TMZ Staff

Conan O'Brien was injured while filming a skit for his show this afternoon and was unable to continue taping, this according to a rep from NBC.

Here's the statement from NBC, which includes a quote from Conan:

"Tonight, NBC will broadcast a repeat of 'The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien.' Conan hit his head doing a stunt and the show was not finished.

Conan O'Brien added, "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."

6. Wow, I was just wondering how long it'd take for something to happen to him after watching Thursday night's episode, earlier this afternoon, with him and the bear. Hope he's back in action Monday.

7. Anyone (besides Harvey)at TMZ old enough to know the difference between "filming" and "taping"?...apparently not.

8. Wow, are they this desperate for ratings? This show stinks so bad that I'd rather go spend time on a pig farm. I'm not buying it.

11. The world didn't miss much. His show is awful. NBC better get some smarts and get Leno back where he needs to be. Otherwise they just have two bad shows.

12. Leno is back and NBC isn't going to revert the changes they made you are a retard Peggy, people and networks evolve, don't like him ? Watch letterman and shut it.

13. Does anyone care? The Tonight Show has tanked due to this untalented goon! Maybe O'Brien WAS funny back in the day, but I'd say his 15 minutes are WELL over. He needs to pack up and move to whereever he came from. The Tonight Show with Johnny and Jay had some class, O'Brien has brought it down in less than a year.

NBC should dump his keester and acknowledge they made a mistake. OR maybe, just maybe, with the dumbing of the American populus, they will watch anything!!!

14. Conan IS a superhero!

I saw him let that bear take a marshmelleow from his mouth! There is a funny comic on www.smackjeeves.com called "Majestic 13" that had Conan and Stephen Colbert in some episodes as Super Heroes locked in a mental institution. I peed when I read it.

ok, ok I was going to pee anyway.

Get well soon Conan!

15. Andy Richter did it! He's tired of being second banana. Then again, it could also be Max Weinberg.

Good thing Conan has all that hairspray in his big hair to cushion the blow.
