Conan O’Brien Must Go Returns: Laughs, Culture, and Chaos in Season 2

I’m a huge fan of this series. While it’s primarily a travel show, Conan O’Brien Must Go is just as much about Conan stepping outside his comfort zone and forming genuine connections with people from around the world. It offers a more human, relatable side of him that we don’t always get to see. Sure, his comedy bits can sometimes be over-the-top, but they’re consistently hilarious and add a unique flair to each episode.

Season two of the Emmy-winning Max Original series Conan O’Brien Must Go premieres on Thursday, May 8 at 6:00 p.m. PT / 9:00 p.m. ET on Max. The new season will roll out over three weeks, with fresh episodes dropping every Thursday, culminating in the season finale on May 22.

In this hilarious travel series, Conan immerses himself in local cultures and reconnects in person with fans he originally met on his podcast, turning virtual chats into real-life adventures. This season takes him to New Zealand, Austria, and Spain—each offering a unique blend of cultural exploration, unexpected moments, and signature Conan antics. It’s just a shame the season only spans three episodes!
