Going Full Caveman with Javier Bardem on Conan O’Brien Must Go
This clip highlights the particular appeal of Conan O'Brien Must Go: travel-show structure gives Conan room to turn an ordinary social encounter into escalating physical comedy. Javier Bardem is an especially game scene partner here, and the caveman premise promises a short, gloriously undignified detour for viewers who enjoy awkward commitment, gross-out humor, and Conan’s talent for pushing a simple bit far beyond its breaking point.
Conan O’Brien and his good friend Javier Bardem sit down for a meal that quickly abandons any resemblance to civilized dining on the upcoming season of Conan O’Brien Must Go. The two grunt, chew aggressively, and embrace their inner cavemen before the increasingly ridiculous bit descends into gagging and retching.
It’s exactly the kind of wonderfully absurd behavior you’d expect when Conan and Jarier get together—and probably not the dinner companions you’d want at the next table.
