Conan Gaming with Pewdiepie Was Kind of Awkward

Earlier this month, famed YouTuber Pewdiepie (aka Felix Kjellberg) appeared on Conan to promote his new show. After the interview, Conan filmed a ā€œClueless Gamerā€ segment, which aired tonight. It was okay, but not great.

There are a couple reasons why this ā€œClueless Gamerā€ fell somewhat flat. For one, as Pewdiepie tweeted, he was a ā€œbit nervous.ā€ It also probably didn’t help that Conan didn’t set up that many comedic opportunities for Pewdiepie, or ā€œPoody Pieā€ as he kept calling him, to do his schtick.

Re-watching the clip I can’t help but feel as though this was a squandered opportunity for both Conan and Pewdiepie. No worries, because at the rate Pewdiepie is going, it’s only a matter of time before he’s on Conan again, promoting his next project.
