A few days after it releases on Max, the legendary late night host’s antics in the Land of Smiles will finally be seen when Conan O’Brien Must Go premieres on April 23 here in Thailand on HBO GO.
It was almost a year ago that Conan O’Brien surprised us by suddenly appearing in Bangkok. In the week or so that he was here, he visited the floating market, took a Muay Thai class, and tried fried scorpion. His visit here wasn’t just for a fun vacay though. The American comedian and recent Hot Ones alum was shooting his brand new show, and not only do we have a new trailer that shows off a little more of his time here in Thailand, but we also have a premiere date.

Conan O’Brien Must Go premieres on April 23 on HBO GO
The former late night host explains in the trailer that the show chronicles his travels as he visits his fans around the world. His podcast Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend has given him the opportunity to speak with his fans around the globe about their lives. Conan visited Anna, one of his fans who lives here in Bangkok, and even helped her out with some problems she was having with her mom.
Aside from mending familial relationships, Conan dressed in traditional Thai garb and walked along a classic Bangkok khlong. He did some Muay Thai and also tried his hand at rock climbing. He experienced the Bangkok heat for himself, which he also bemoaned like we do, and then took a cruise down the floating market.
But Thailand isn’t Conan’s only stop in the first season of his show. The brand new trailer shows the comedian in full-on viking garb in Norway, returning to his Irish roots in Ireland, and learning how to tango in Argentina. His fans will be delighted to know that his funny and odd companion, Jordan Schlansky, will also be accompanying and irritating him on the show.
Conan O’Brien Must Go premiered on April 18 on Max but will be premiering here in Thailand on HBO GO on April 23. You also won’t have to wait for new episodes to drop: all four episodes will be available to stream on the day of the premiere. Watch the latest trailer for the show below.
