Popular TV host Conan O'Brien has revealed the return of his popular Clueless Gamer web series. The former Saturday Night Live writer and Conan host saw significant success with the gaming-focused series on YouTube, hilariously trying out hot games like Overwatch and The Last of Us. O'Brien also regularly featured high-profile guests like Tony Hawk and Seth Rogen appearing on the show to guide him through the games. Now, O'Brien has officially confirmed the return of the gaming videos.
The revival of Clueless Gamer comes as O'Brien has shifted his focus away from television towards streaming platforms and his podcast, Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend. The weekly podcast regularly features major guests with well-known comedians like Mila Kunis, athletes like Shaquille O'Neal, and even former U.S. President Barack Obama appearing on the show. O'Brien has also regularly appeared on other gaming-focused podcasts to discuss his opinions on games, offering reviews of games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Among Us. Now, the popular host is bringing back his own gaming show with a double feature.
Conan O'Brien's Team Coco unveiled the return of Clueless Gamer late last week revealing the talk show and podcast host already has two game reviews coming soon. Conan O'Brien's popular gaming series will see the comedian trying out developer FuturLab's PowerWash Simulator, as well as Asobo Studio's recently released A Plague Tale: Requiem. The video also confirms that both games will be played through a Samsung TV, showcasing Xbox Cloud Gaming on the device. Much like previous Clueless Gamer videos, each review is filled with O'Brien's unique brand of comedy throughout.
The Clueless Gamer comeback was also revealed to be featuring a returning guest alongside O'Brien for his foray into PowerWash Simulator and A Plague Tale: Requiem. Aaron Bleyaert will be joining Conan O'Brien for the newest episodes of the show with Bleyaert being a staple of the series, appearing in several past segments. Bleyaert acts as a guide for O'Brien throughout Clueless Gamer, teaching him the controls of each game and helping him through. Bleyaert also hosts Team Coco's Good Game, Nice Try podcast, where O'Brien regularly makes guest appearances.
Fans of Conan O'Brien will likely be ecstatic to see the return of the comedian's gaming-focused series with the review segments being some of Team Coco's most popular videos. Both O'Brien's review of Grand Theft Auto 5 and his Mortal Kombat X video featuring NFL athletes Marshawn Lynch and Rob Gronkowski have amassed 19 million views on YouTube. Multiple other videos focusing on games like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Super Smash Bros. For Wii U have also surpassed 10 million views. Clueless Gamer's return will be sure to offer plenty of laughs for fans of both the featured games and Conan O'Brien.
