Conan O’Brien’s Expensive Revenge on NBC

Watching NBC’s Conan O’Brien’s unforgettable revenge might give you some ideas for getting even with a boss who’s wronged you. After Jay Leno announced his departure from “The Tonight Show,” NBC quickly cast Conan O’Brien in the role.

After Leno changed his mind and said he wanted to come back, the network was just as quick to boot O’Brien and bring back Leno as the anchor of their hit talk show. Because of this, O’Brien became so enraged that he spent show money on a Bugatti Veyron and forced the network to pay exorbitant royalties to use the Rolling Stones’ “Satisfaction” as a musical interlude.
