Conan O'Brien is back on his show Conan with yet another exciting episode- season 2016 episode 82. This time, the host welcomes three celebrity guests- Alexander Skarsgard, Bo Burnham, and the cast of School of Rock.
First up is Alexander Skarsgard, the Swedish actor who is best known for his roles in HBO's True Blood and the blockbuster hit, Tarzan. As always, Conan manages to bring out the best in his guests, and Skarsgard is no exception. The actor opens up about his experiences while shooting in a remote location in the Arctic, revealing that he had to swim in freezing cold water and fish for his own food. He also talks about the challenges of gaining and losing weight for different acting roles, and how it affects his mental state.
Next, Bo Burnham joins the show. Burnham is a comedian, musician, and writer, who has gained a cult following for his witty humor and clever lyrics. He talks about the process of writing his comedy specials, and how he likes to challenge himself to try new things with every show. Conan and Burnham have a hilarious back-and-forth, with the comedian even singing a few lines of his new song live on air.
Lastly, the cast of School of Rock drops in for a jam session. Based on the 2003 movie of the same name, the hit Broadway musical centers around a down-on-his-luck musician who becomes a substitute teacher at a private school, and teaches his students about the power of rock and roll. The young actors play a few songs from the show, and even get Conan involved in a rousing rendition of "Teacher's Pet."
As always, Conan's quick wit and offbeat humor make for an entertaining and fun episode. The guests are all engaging and bring their unique perspectives to the table. Whether you're a fan of Skarsgard's dramatic chops, Burnham's hilarious musical stylings, or School of Rock's infectious rock anthems, there's something for everyone in this episode. So sit back, relax, and enjoy another hilarious installment of Conan.
