Our Take On Conan O’Brien Must Go Season 3’s Renewal
Conan Could Become A Highly Coveted Host
While season 2 was already renewed back in May 2024, the season 3 renewal was likely inspired partly by the rave reactions toConan hosting the 2025 Oscarslast week. In turn, Conan could be courting many more offers for hosting opportunities in the near future, so it was smart for Max to lock him up for another season of his travel series while they still could. As indicated by the first season ofConan O’Brien Must Go, he is one of a few hosts who can be funny while still engaging in in-depth discussions.
Conan O’Brien Must Goseason 2 will likely release all episodes at once, as did season 1.
