Conan O'Brien will take his "Late Night" talk show to Toronto for four nights in February.

"I, personally, have been very influenced by Canadian comedy. I was a freak for 'Second City TV' and very influenced by it and so were the writers, especially the original ("Late Night") writers who started the show 10 years ago," he said.

"We felt a kinship with this city," the 40-year-old O'Brien said Monday, adding that he's found that the best, hippest members of studio audiences in New York had come from Toronto.
