Well that didn't take long!
Less than three weeks after leaving The Tonight Show , Jay Leno returned to late-night to help make a special announcement.
Fall TV 2014 Scorecard: Which shows are returning? Which aren't?
On Wednesday's episode of The Arsenio Hall Show , Leno sneaked up from behind Hall and gave the first of two big surprises. The second, via an inconspicuous-looking letter, was Leno's reveal that The Arsenio Hall Show has been renewed for a second season.
CBS Television Distribution sent out a release shortly thereafter making the renewal official. "Since 9/9/13, I've been waking up without an alarm clock," Hall said in a statement. "Producing and hosting my late-night talk show brings me great joy. I'm back where I belong! Thanks to my partners at CBS Television Distribution and Tribune."
