There's an old saying in showbiz: Never work with animals, or animals dressed up as larger, fictional animals.
Conan O'Brien left his studio set to film at San Diego Comic-Con over the weekend, and when you're away from home, it's fun to try new things. It doesn't always work, but at least you learned something. And what Team Coco learned was that just because you stick a Godzilla costume on a beagle, doesn't mean it's going to get right into character and start smashing up the tiny city you built for exactly that purpose.
OK, so it's not a total disaster -- just a bit of an anti-climax, if you're the kind of person for whom the very presence of a dog in a Godzilla costume is not the absolute peak of artistic endeavour.
You can absolutely see why this sketch was scrapped -- but at the same time, you can also see exactly why they had to release it anyway.
