No interaction is ever the same, a tribute to the show’s diversity of casting, and even when he has “zero chemistry” with someone (as he literally says about one of the fans he meets on the road), he draws out comedy simply by playing the clown around them, making himself the butt of the joke — and never letting the energy flag.

Conan O’Brien Must Go offers an abundance of heart and humor while rendering the comedian's latest chapter irresistibly captivating and uproariously funny.

Some of the stuff goes on a bit long, but so does my writing. These are minor quibbles. If you’re a Conan fan, you’ll treasure the trips.

Conan O’Brien Must Go is a very silly and occasionally illuminating series that’s still finding its rhythms and its comic voice as the fourth episode concludes. That leaves the show’s biggest takeaway as “Wait, that’s it? I want more.”

Yes, Conan stays Conan. .... It’s worth mentioning that the vibes can be a bit off at times, and certain scenes seem to drag, as if he’s willing with all his might to draw comedy from them. But boy is it good to see Conan out there throwing his full, feral self (not just his voice) into the act again.

The resulting comedy is crazily uneven and profoundly unrehearsed. When it hits the mark, though, it is wildly funny.
