I thought Colin sucked when I was in my teens. Turns out my brain wasn't developed to a proper level at the time. The man is brilliant and one of the most underrated comedians ever.
Yep. It's interesting to see these early 2000s commercials now than most of them are created by some of the most vapid, inexperienced, superficial agenda-pushing people the western world has to offer. Not that it wasn't the case at this time but now it's just plain bad.
Jim, Patrice, Greg and Nick really kept this show going. Others have a few moments, but it was those 4 that were the long distance comics for this show.
@Nicholas Pagano oh we got a big man alpha male savage over here. he don't use words like literally cuz hes not a guuuuurl, could he be any more badass good lord
It’s depressing that I’m nostalgic for these commercials and not the showI don’t know how I didn’t watch this when I was in my teens. Must have been the time slot.
Watching the old commercials is so fucking nostalgic.. It brings me right back to when I was in high school and used to watch this show every night.. God I miss those days..
I completely agree. This content was free for me to view and I should just accept it for what it is. If I watch 1999 other videos uploaded by folks kind enough to edit out commercials, I should not expect #2000 to do the same. Your vulgarity lets me know how sincere you truly are and how wrong I was. I have not uploaded any Tough Crowd videos. But, I can tell you that when I do, I will make sure not to edit it in any way, shape, or form that will enhance the viewing experience. You have my word.
Patrice O Neal, my god that man was brilliant. I was letting my son watch his take on racism and white/black girls gone missing, and it was very funny, but I wanted my son to get the POINT of what he was saying. Patrice is a rare comic who makes you laugh and then makes you sad that you're laughing because what he says is very sad, very true, but very sad. GG also a hilarious comic. For god's sake, make sure someone keeps Louis C.K. safe!
I was glad to see him pop back up in episodes of Louie Louie and all of the other c.k. stuff. Been following him on FB and YT for his podcasts which he seems to follow up with the fans. I got a shitload of likes from my comments during his show. I was very excited about that.
@@leahcimolrac1477 I realize some have died (RIP Patrice, Ralphie, Greg Geraldo, Pat Cooper, and George Carlin), and it's impossible to have the original cast, so you would replace them with the many new comedians who have become known over the past 20 years.
You're completely right. I was out of line for making a suggestion on TH-cam, no matter how trivial or seemingly insignificant it was. Your anger and hostility is completely understandable and rational given the circumstances. I mean, who am I to expect that just because quite literally every other video I have ever seen on TH-cam has edited out commercials, this one should too? I'm certain that your ire is only a product of my own vitriol and in no way reflects your true underlying character.
You're absolutely correct. I'm not a fan. I just find obscure videos and comment on them because I'm an interloper. If you look at my previous comment, I believe you will see that I said "sincere" which is an antonym (opposite) of "insincere". My point was merely some constructive criticism for this user to cut out the commercials. I think you will see that this was a running theme throughout my previous posts, though this may be tough considering half of your comments have been taken down.
What's funny is this show was on a year or 2 before Dane blew up and became a huge superstar between 04-07.. All the other comics knew he was the next to become a megastar so they used to just trash the hell out of him.. They did the same thing with Kevin Hart..
23:13 is the funniest part of this video. WHY? It's a REALLY BAD Greyhound Bus commercial attempting to be fresh and flashy while keeping it real and economical. COMEDY!
This show NEEDS TO BE BACK. Social-distancing-style; they can all do it from home! Norton and Cumia and several others are doing it, so Colin needs to get in on the action!
"Any time you see a comedian acting cool, you should know its because hes lost his soul and his sense of humor" Like when Dennis Leary tried to be Mr. Big Time on this very show and Greg Giraldo destroyed him^^
what's fucked up is that most of the time, half the comedians were liberal and half conservative. now it seems like you have to pick one side and shun the other and I don't understand why, what's so horrible about talking to someone with different political views? people are so fucking thin skinned it's ridiculous, on the left and right, it sucks. country full of vag slits
it got good ratings stupid. Neon Mullet is correct. Viacom pushed to have Colbert paired with the Daily Show. The honesty of discussion that happened on this show embarrassed a lot of people at Comedy Central front office. That sounds like a conspiracy to me.
impressive how the commercials are the most commented thing about this upload. This world really is doomed....or maybe people really just hated Colin's show.
Was this show canceled, because it wasn't leaning to the Left enough? Unlike most roundtable comedy discussion shows, this seemed to not have a hidden agenda to the Left or Right. Watching Comedy Central now is very Leftist. I'm middle of the road, politically, btw.
Truth be told, the ratings started to drop because you couldn't get the 4 main characters on the show (Giraldo, Norton, Patrice and DiPaolo). They were really the show and for the overwhelming most part, the comedians that were on the show that weren't them...sucked. Those 4 started to get far more gigs and couldn't be on the show. And it was a difficult show to do since there's a ton of writing involved to keep things fresh. The other part was that Tough Crowd was replaced by the Daily Show which did excellent ratings. Eventually they put in The Colbert Show...and regardless of what you think of Colbert...his show did well in the ratings, too. I'm sure there were plenty of people at Comedy Central that were nervous about the show's comedy and how it would affect advertising. But, the ratings declined and IIRC, Colin talked about some of the ways that Norton and Patrice behaved to the Comedy Central big-wigs when he was trying to get the show extended and get more money and they really sabotaged it. I think Tough Crowd could EASILY work again today. But, the issues are that as the star comedians become more popular they will be on the show less and less and that will hurt its future. You would really need to get 4 comedians and a host that get paid handsomely enough to stay on the show.
We need a show like this again!
I thought Colin sucked when I was in my teens. Turns out my brain wasn't developed to a proper level at the time. The man is brilliant and one of the most underrated comedians ever.
Amen to that, I can say the same. This show was way too early
Same w dipaolo, I thought he was kinda grumpy and overly focused on race. After watching enough Steven crowder, I understand dipaolo much better.
If your brain wasn t properly developed. What state are y all from
I was lucky enough to see this show in my early twenties when it was fresh and new and even then I knew it was comedic history in the making.

Ironically....I skip every ad on youtube I can, but I watch the commercials here because effort was put in to some entertainment
And it takes more effort to forward it.

and nostalgia
Tough Crowd and Insomniac were the greatest
I'm watching this in 2019. I remember watching this in 2003. Time creeps fast.
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
How can you creep fast?
i’m watching this in 2024, i Remember being a fetus when this aired
Atkins friendly subway commercials, Jesus I'm 28 and feel so old seeing these old commercials.
Jim, Patrice, Greg and Nick really kept this show going. Others have a few moments, but it was those 4 that were the long distance comics for this show.
Pat Cooper
Agreed ….those 4 were deadly ….vos was a good 5th….

You really do realize that the newer generations humor is softer when you see jim Norton licking feet on classic tv
Classic TV? Fuck I’m old
Yeah. Sure buddy.
Or the fact that they outright attacked the Middle East and it actually got a round of applause
25:15 awesome ATHF commercial :D Really brought me back!!
I watched Tough Crowd and Aqua Teen religiously in college when they aired new lol
This show was the best. Just raw.
great name bro.
That Joe Satriani commercial really broke my heart, man.
Why?
I love the JOe Satriani commercial lol.
My favorite part was the commercials. Nice to see Sleepies outside of FatMart.
"Whenever you see a comedian act cool, he has lost his soul."
Literally all of them now
@Nicholas Pagano oh we got a big man alpha male savage over here. he don't use words like literally cuz hes not a guuuuurl, could he be any more badass good lord
You are so right, brother.
“Not to be cruel but that’s what we pay them for”- Colin is the man

I was in college and always missed it bc it was on fridays at 830 pm. I’d be partying or pre gaming at that point and would always miss it.
22:18: "And I loved you in Sha Na Na" Holy Shit 😅😅😅
The best part of this show is just the fact that they're all professional comedians talking the truth and making fun of the truth.
Whoever did commercial advertising for comedy central nailed it back then.
The ads are almost better than the show haha hilarious
"...walking on a tuesday". love that...
Rich Hall is so fuckin awesome... I'm glad that he has a great audience in the UK.
Watching the old commercials is so fucking nostalgic..
It brings me right back to when I was in high school and used to watch this show every night..
God I miss those days..
What an ending. Amazing as the whole show and the guests. Miss you guys

I still have copies of this show on VHS. I guess there's no chance of a DVD release?
It's amazing how old school these commercials are now. Amazing show btw. Patrice was the best
Wow I love these old commercials. They’re so cheesy these days in 2020.
THE STORY SO FAR! Greatest band out there.

why is watching decade old commercials depressing.
Because you realize the nostalgia you feel for it is compltely fabricated by companies that only want to make money off of you.

Patrice was the shit!!!!
I noticed George Lopez was in this edit, but YOU DIDN'T INCLUDE ANYTHING HE SAID?!! Thank you, nice editing. Great compilation.
Bring this back!
I’m pretty sure half the guests who used to be on are now either dead or have completely become a sold-out husk of their former selves.

We're these shows filmed one a day or how many were all filmed at once per day?
was it just me or did anyone watch the commercials too?
Yeah, it was nostalgic!!!!!
Yes it was just you. Commercials are the syphilis of entertainment
I was 3 in before I realized I was an idiot!
I skipped through them to see if I remembered any which I did.
CompUSA...forgot it ever existed
"Joe Satrani, the acclaimed guitar legend! He's back to perform, nearly an hour of mostly new material." How terrible
that shit made me laugh so hard. all I could think of is anthony cumias brother.

Why I'm watching trough the commercials :|
One night in "Prison"? Maaan. GAAAANGSTAAA
The ads nearly kill this for me. One the best shows ever they where talking about rebooting this in 2016
i ordered one of those pilly cheesesteak pizzas, i then swore off of dominos
Good, because all the ‘Xanax,Ritalin,Beef&Cheese’ pizza pie proceeds go to funding the next pandemic.

the name of the game, and their competition on the same time slot was strong.
