Conan O'Brien is headed to Fox. Deadline is reporting that the network has just picked up a single-camera medical comedy called Bob's New Heart Show, which is written by Community's Bob Wexler and executive-produced by O'Brien

The series, which has yet to cast any leads, follows a young, "hotshot" doctor has a change of heart about his career after literally having a change of heart - in other words, a heart transplant - and takes over a small family practice in the neighborhood where he grew up. The title, Bob's New Heart Show, is a play off of the 1970's CBS sitcom, The Bob Newhart Show, but the series doesn't look like it has much to do with that show.

O'Brien will executive produce alongside Wexler, David Kissinger and Jeff Ross.
