TBS said Wednesday that late-night host Conan O'Brien, who premiered with "Conan" in November 2010, has won an extension through April 2014.
O'Brien quips, "I'll be taping episodes of 'Conan' well into the Ron Paul presidency."
He originally signed with TBS after a brief, tumultuous promotion to be host of NBC's "Tonight" show and a short hiatus from TV when his NBC contract prevented him from appearing on another network.
TBS says "Conan" has recently charted a third consecutive month of audience growth. During 2012, it is averaging 1.1 million viewers.
The Los Angeles-based "Conan" airs Monday through Thursday at 11 p.m. ET.
