Conan O’Brien signed off from late night more than a few years ago at this point and, truly, it hasn’t really been the same ever since. The once elder statesman of late night also happened to be on the forefront of redefining what could be done with the late night format with his remotes, traveling abroad, and even playing videos games while not having a clue of what the hell was going on.
Since his hosting duties ended, Conan has amassed a podcast empire under the Team Coco banner, which has been amazing, but it’s not quite the same as having Conan O’Brien out in the field bringing joy to millions with his signature antics.
Thankfully, a rumored travel show at HBO is now coming to fruition as shown by the teaser for the Max Original, Conan O’Brien Must Go, where Conan travels to places all over the globe where his fans reside. That’ll include Noway, Thailand, and, from the looks of the teaser, somewhere in the UK. It’s a more personal, very likely less censored version of Conan Without Borders and we couldn’t be more excited for its arrival.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Conan is more than a natural at this and is probably more deserving of a travel show than the litany of other famous people who have done it over the last few years.
Get your first look at Conan O’Brien Must Go here, then look for it on HBO Max/Max soon (perhaps, pending the strike ending?)
