Jimmy Carr bad
Sub to Lumbardi, NOT Lombardi, here: / @lumbardiyt - ตลก
The Reunion show would’ve been better if it had Greg Davies (actor of Mr. Gilbert) as the host. With him on the show, he and the lads could’ve had a great time, reminiscing on their moments on the sets, make references to the scenes from The Inbetweeners and even have more focus of the questions relating to the show.
Okay alright, clearly you just jumped in and said that _without_ even watching the reunion show, as Greg Davies does make an appearance. Prejudiced much?!
@一新名2021 "as the host"
Totally agree even if he acted like mr Gilbert it wouldn’t have been as bad as it was
@@Connie_TinuityErrorhuh? what are you saying
@@Connie_TinuityErrorhow’s it prejudiced at all what are you talking about
Also ‘as the host’ is the Main point of the original commenter
In fairness as James did say Jimmy Carr was hired to do what he does and it was the people who thought he was suitable in that sense that were the real problem
JC didn't appear to be a real fan of the show.
@@andrewq159 well I don’t think he really has to be but also he did show some genuine knowledge about it. Again he did what he was hired to do, with the type of comedic presenter he is, he wasn’t the right choice but that’s not on him
@@kJ922-h3j Taking over & making the show about him was his fault.
@@andrewq159 his whole thing is making fun of the thing itself and the people involved, that’s what you get when you hire him
@@kJ922-h3j Have C4 said why they chose him as the presenter?
I was never expecting a brand new Inbetweeners episode, but I would have been happy if the special was just them and other cast members talking about their time making the show, similar to the Harry Potter reunion or Friday Night Dinner 10-year anniversary thing. What made it so bad was Jimmy Carr being cringey and unfunny, making them do a banal quiz with creepy looking fans of the show and like you said, treating them as though they actually were their characters. You could even see in Blake’s and James’ faces that they weren’t enjoying it.
Jimmy carr is 10x funny than inbetweeners ever could be. Inbetweeners was made for brainless morons with a low iq, dipshits that are actually stupid enough to find it funny and somewhat entertaining.
Getting Jimmy Carr to host was crazy. Couldve asked anyone off the street and they'd have been as good.
Bro its not jimmy’s fault he was hired by the producers of the reunion so shut the fuck up
Jimmy Carr turns everything into a quizshow
The car segment was the best part easily. The reunion should’ve been just that, a lads road trip visiting set locations and mild reenactment (go to Thorpe Park for the fun of it) with appearances from other cast members on route. And yes, Greg Davies should’ve hosted.
the Carr segment though... coulda done without that
The way the reunion could've and should've gone was how the Harry Potter reunion went, it was fun just seeing the trio in 1 room having a laugh over the films, even had a lot of the cast, instead of, The Jimmy Carr Show, oh aye, we have these 4 people who were in a show together 😂😂😂
Even the set is terrible
What kicking out the writer for opinions 99% of people agree with
TV executives/producers have a tendency to make shit decisions like this, completely misreading the appeal of something. "If it's just them together, it'll be boring!" No, that's what people want. You don't need some shite window dressing or excuse like a quiz show or Butlins-tier standup from Jimmy Carr. Could have saved themselves a fortune too on paying his (no doubt exorbitant) fee, as well as the overdone set cost etc.
The entire Reunion show should of just been them chatting driving around in a car.
Biggest mistake was hiring Jimmy Carr. it was not Jimmy's fault he ruined the reunion, the reunion was ruined by whoever picked him to host it.
Mmmmnnnahhhh I’m pretty sure he had a large stake in the fault claim.
@@RebornAudio No, his comedy is like this in every other show? The fault lies with the producers.
the issue with this special is that works for any show. so it doesn't feel like an inbetweeners special it's just a special about the Inbetweeners
it can be done well though, The friends and harry potter specials were so much better and more about the cast and production
@@jackbeighton7761 that's not my point? "yea you can do it well tho if you change the whole thing"
Definitely, and to be honest, it looks like they didn't even need the cast there, just a bunch of fans taking part in a quiz would have had similar results.
And the Friends Special wasn't called 'the one where James Cordon ruins it' for nothing.
@@beesree39 sorry mate completely misread your comment
Stopped watching when the voiceover didn’t know why Fwends had a “W” in it
EXACTLY, I went to the comment's to see if anyone else noticed
Why does it?
@@lt8400 m.th-cam.com/video/j9-hRivcIY8/w-d-xo.html
@@lt8400notice how he didn't respond. Because he doesn't know either
@@lt8400there’s a joke where they are making fun of jay for having a friend outside of the group by repeating the word fwend in front of him
All I remember thinking from watching a clip of it on this website was "This is just an episode of 8 Out of 10 Cats with the four boys as extra guests".
part of the problem with this is that a lot of fans didn’t realise it was going to be a retrospective show, they were expecting a new episode of the show they loved then got angry when it wasn’t what they expected
That’s what I thought it was going to be
It was clearly advertised as a show celebrating the series, not a new episode.
@@Ese96Agoayeyeah, but then many news outlets, most notoriously LadBible deliberately spread misinformation, saying it was gonna be a new episode (I didn't fall for it, but a ton of people did and James critiised them as a result)
@@iliketrains3495I remember that, LADBible is utter dogshit
James Buckley even said in the interview that he loves Jimmy Carr and doesnt blame him for this at all. disappointed to see the comments hating on him
It's not unreasonable. Jimmy Carr was a terrible pick but that's not Jimmy's fault
Not Jimmy’s fault. He was hired to do what he does best. The fault lies with the producers
Agreed
Im sure they told hin to just treat it like he does cats
That's what he does best? Man, he's really good for nothing.
He doesn’t have to be a twat in everything he does however
Jimmy is as funny as a root canal. It should have been a cast sitdown of them talking naturally
I remember being hyped for this reunion and then saw clips online of it and it looked like a dumpster fire. It's so bad, I kind of forgot it even happened.
Spot on!!!!! The 4 lads on their own having a laugh about their experience; with sub interviews with the other cast members would have been great. A recent example - currently on Netflix with Simon Bird is "FRIDAY NIGHT DINNER - 10 years and a lovely bit of squirrel." A prime example of this type of concept done well. Still, it doesn't taint just how great the Uk inbetweeners was. Absolutely legendary writing and casting
The Inbetweeners appearing on the Alan Carr Show meant more than this.
Well Alan carr is just a normal albeit eccentric person whereas Jimmy Carrs whole personality is fictional like having a fake laugh as a comedian is just dull. He’s a posh twat who just mocks people then does a fake laugh.
They should do a podcast reunion
I'd love that!! go through each episode just like the Office US podcast
Mr.Gilbert shoulda been the host.
The reunion was really bad it felt like it was all about jimmy Carr.
That fucking British Haunted Butler
Hes funny and charismatic
@@leonconnelly5303Not really
This was a double shit show!
The producers didn’t allow the reunion to just flow. They introduced stupid things like the panel quiz and the suitcase prank.
And then Jimmy Carr! A total and utter unfunny, false laughing, tax dodging narcissist who makes everything he is on about him!
One of the worst broadcast experiences in history and totally unfair to the 4 lads and the other cast who all looked stunned.
If Jimmy Carr never appeared anywhere again, most wouldn’t miss him!
No tell us how you really feel😂
@@Jackson5268
Don’t really have a strong opinion on the matter 🤪
The problem, as you say, is that the inbetweeners was funny because it had writers, but the 4 lads are just actors. Like all of us they're capable of sharing humorous stories and making the occasional clever pun or quip, and as actors they're probably a bit better when it comes to timing and delivery too, but, just like all of us, they've not got much of a on-stage stand-up/panel show comedy pedigree. In a relaxed environment, with no live studio audience, no script, no host, they could simply unwind and reminisce as we all do with friends - and they would all laugh hysterically over memories we as outsiders can find funny, but not nearly as funny as those who lived it.
Instead they were forced onto a stage and made to perform, like trained monkeys in a sense. A reunion like this is only ever going to be a case of 'rehashing' old content combined with a behind the scenes look in the guise of memories of making the show. Instead they tried to make some sort of awards show/gameshow + formal panel show interview format.
C4 advertised it like a new episode and then gaslit us to say they didn't
Jimmy's a great host for 8 out 10 cats but he was not the choice for this reunion and had no business being there
More wimpy kid tweets plssss we have been waiting for YEARS
Buckley should just get all the lads on his pod and do a reunion themselves.. it would be exactly what the fans want and a massive middle finger to all the production companies and producers that want to stick their oar in
I remember being excited about this when it was advertised, then started watching it, sighed a breath of disappointment when i saw Jimmy Carr was presenting it, watched 5 minutes and turned it off. Ridiculous waste of everyone's time.
The section of them chatting in the car left me very hopeful. I got so bored from the rest I switched off very quickly. So disappointed
Not sure why but I found it very cringey when they revealed the car, it felt desperate
I still hate lad bible for lying saying it was a special last episode
they are absolute idiots 😂 unfollowed them a long time ago.
Welcome back!
Bring back more of you're amazing videos bro please ❤
I think I get why it went so wrong. Just been watching the full version of the JB pod clip showed here. He talks about how at the time a 4 of them were busy working. Their role in it all was to just turn up. I think the producers of the show felt that they had to have something for them to slot in to on the night. So they came up with all those dumb ideas they had. Maybe it was a bit, "shit, we cant work with them to formulate the show because they aren't available, so lets make something they can simply participate in". Buckley is right in that really it would have been just fine if they had the writers in too, and just had them all talking about the fun times making it, and yes with Greg hosting. But I dont think the producers could possibly know that could sustain the whole thing.
...you don't know why it was called "fwends reuinted"?
You don't remember the whole "football fwend" / thumbs up thing?
It was a pretty big part of the show.
Except they don't say 'fwend' they say 'friend' just in a patronising way. th-cam.com/video/fWQnrMxoa0k/w-d-xo.html
No, I think you've made a mistake here. He knows about the "football friends" joke, as does everyone who watched the inbetweeners. If you watch the video properly, you would have seen that he wasn't questioning the title as a whole, but the fact that it had a "w" in the word friends, as it was never pronounced with a w in the program. May wanna revise your comment here mate as it makes no sense really.
@@samhumphrey7058 it very much was pronounced with a w in the show
It very much wasn't.
@@samhumphrey7058 I've just watched the clip. It's definitely pronounced with a w. Not all the time, but it is there.
Honey wake up Lumbardi is back
She aired you bro. Go gym
Never saw it as I heard it was terrible, but even just from the clips I've seen I agree that Carr was the wrong choice. Not his fault. It's the producers. They booked him knowing his style.
Greg Davis would certainly have been a better choice.
Yeah, Jimmy Carr is far too used to being the smart arse host, which he excels at. You see him struggle when he’s a guest on other shows. He has a persona that he needs to keep up. Which is fair enough. If you book Jimmy Carr to go on QI, you’ve booked comedian panel show host Jimmy Carr, not podcast Jimmy Carr.
I still hope there will be a third movie, I think there's still more to tell in the story of the guys and what happens in the struggling life of a young adult nowadays with getting jobs, owning a property and struggling to maintain a marriage.
Heard Bloc Party and instantly subscribed aha
The thing about Jimmy Carr is , he always has to be the centre of attention. He presents (or did present, not sure if it's still going actually) a show called My Face or Yours with Katherine Ryan. All he does ALL the way through the show is belittles and takes the piss out of the contestants that are on it, and goes out of his way to drive a rift between the couples. I would love it if the tables were turned on him.
I appreciate the Persona 5 background music
They should have got someone who was actually funny to host it
It’s not that Jimmy isn’t funny just that he wasn’t the right person for this
@@judeharvey3498the problem is the inbeetweeners cast aren't funny
@@leonconnelly5303 🤦♂️
@@leonconnelly5303if it was just the 4 of them talking they would’ve been a lot more funny. they only realised what the show was gonna be when they were already sat there on tv, they were shocked and unprepared for it.
@@leonconnelly5303In lots of the behind the scenes stuff the cast were quite funny
Jimmy Carr just isn’t funny
Good one 😂
Ah and you can’t see the Neil Oliver bit online on u tube 🤷🏻♂️ why is that, who got that taken off?
Remember watching it and thinking this was totally bizarre & extremely cringe.
Getting the guys in the same room with some other prominent cast and crew members and talking about the show, it origins and inspiration should have been what the reunion is
where did you watch it?
I mean, it’s not like it hasn’t been proven that the format of getting the cast together in a room and just talking about the thing works fine as a reunion show. The Fresh Prince, Friends and Harry Potter have all done it already.
You can tell Carr has experienced some rank humiliation in his life.
How can I watch this in America
Why Is The Persona 5 Background Music So Strangely Fitting
They could literally do a reunion themselves podcast format, feel like some of them don't really like going back to that place and would rather just move on. Tends to happen a lot with young actors
4:58 reminds me of Friday Night Dinner when Simon's character gets an ear trophy
"I wanna make it clear I don't hate Jimmy Carr as a comedian"
That's fine, I can hate him for you, I used to think he was the peak of humour when I was like 13.
“Don’t know why friends has a w in it”
Did you watch the show? 🤣
Bro why did you stop posting. You were doing so good mate.
It’s Fwends Reunited because “Football Fwend”
But they only say ‘friends’ and not ‘fwends’ it’s just their accent which makes it not have a strong r but they always said ‘friends’
@@AlphoricEven us fellow British people always thought they said "fwends"
@@Alphoric they cleaely do say "fwends" on purpose.
@@Dreadpirateflappynot rlly
@@cookiesontoast9981 We really don't
No way Bloc party helicopter
There were no Bloc Party songs in the Inbetweeners, amazingly
I think they went down the classic big tv show event. when if they ran it like the harry potter reunion, just the lads chatting with side characters coming in and chatting, it would have been really interesting and funny.
Is the dude talking from hitcsevens?😂
It's like getting Ricky Gervais to host the Oscars
Lads, I tell you one thing as simeone whose worked in tv and see how producers formulate ideas, just never under estimate their ability to go against everything they themselves have said about "creative" and "fresh" ideas continue to churn out the same dead, tired, pointless and dirivitive shit ideas because their either lack actual imagination or are too afraid to try something new because their stuck in a lowest common denominator loop
Lumbardi reunion?
Jesus Neil Oliver..Neil FUCKING "turbo cancer" Oliver being a good bit says everything
My brothers friend won Simons car but couldn't get it because he didn't have his licence at the time
I remembered when this was being advertised and was thinking this was going to be one-off episode, but was disappointed when this was what we got, however I still watched it and it was decent even though there was some stuff that did make me cringe. It was watchable to an extent. But watching this video, I definitely agree that Jimmy Carr was the wrong person to host this, as many people have said, Greg Davis should’ve hosted it and I feel it would’ve got alot of a better response. I’m not hating on Jimmy Carr for hosting it, it’s not his fault, it’s just his humour didn’t mix with the reunion. I also didn’t realise how much James Buckley was actually hating being on the Fwiends Reunited show until watching this video
It’s over guys. Life goes on
It was called Fwends because there's an episode where Jay gets a "fwend"
Nah the 2nd movie was hardly satisfying, the first movie was
Bloody persona 5 music in the back
To be fair, if you want to see the four of them talking about the show, the extras on the DVDs have plenty of that. This reunion show looks like it sucked though, so I'm glad I missed it!
Emily Atack as well. Why wasn't she included?
she had a fling with James Buckley
I wouldn't really blame Jimmy Carr for this one, I think the blame lies with whoever decided to go with that format.
The fact you didn’t know why it was called ‘fwends’ and not friends tells me you don’t know enough about inbetweeners.
They never once said “fwend” though. Nobody ever pronounced it that way. It’s actually you who clearly has no clue 😂
@@user-qs4wn1ks1uooooo football fwends
100% 😂😂😂😂😂
@@user-qs4wn1ks1uyes they did?
@@user-qs4wn1ks1u I think it’s similar to the ‘Mandela Effect’, where a large group of people incorrectly remember the same thing. It’s genuinely how a lot of us remember it, but you’re right! I just watched old clips and it was ’friend’ all along aha.
Jimmy is so painful sometimes
You should start making videos again pal
Diary of a wimpy kid reading tweets again? just maybe?
They are 4 very dull characters in real life which didn't help. Having all the minor characters there in the audience and feeding them dumb questions was cringey. Actually, just every single thing that happened in the studio was a cringey disaster.
People also didn't read what it was and expected an actual episode.
the host was jimmy carr and you didnt knoiw what was about to happen?
Damn who told carr that he's funny has blood in their hands
Why not Greg????? 🤯 not even a massive fan, it just makes sense.
in no way is it jimmy carrs fault, he was hired to host and do his thing, he did his job for what is it was, it was more on the production side where it failed
That is weird... It's like talking to Adam Sandler as if he was Billy Madison.
Why don't you know why "fewnd" has a "w" in it? Have you seen The Inbetweeners? I agree that the programme was hopeless, though.
If you want me not to watch it, throw a Jimmy Carr in there
Do UK vs US The Office
Just make a sequel series with them trying to be adults.
They shouldn't have made it. They should have accepted that the inbetweeners had finished and just move on
I watched it and was very underwhelmed. It should have been Greg Davies who hosted it
The problems is people like the character's in the show they dont like the actors playing them. Because theyre so good in the inbeetweeners everyone thinks thats what they must be like but there nothing like the character's in real life
I cannot blame Jimmy. It's Jimmys style. Wrongly casted
Damn I clicked that fast
I do love jimmy carr hes hysterical but here he fails
With the shit show of the Friends reunion cast too with James Corden being there I'm convinced they do this deliberately to stop people asking for new episodes or films of these popular shows
Great, why the hell am I going to watch a video from someone that says they like the show, but doesn't know why they used "Fwends"
Are you PrimalLiquid??
Buckley legendary family 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I didn't manage to watch 5 minutes of that crap, because it had Carr as host and I don't find him funny one bit. I also thought the reunion (when I heard it announced) was an actual long episode of them meeting up again after the movies and seeing where they are in life, it was totally the opposite, so nah. I won't be watching another reunion regardless, unless it is an actual episode type feature.
Lumbardi where are you
