"How dare you use a recent & specific example!" needs to be my go-to response for all accusations.
That side-eye to the camera made that line miraculous
@@Thortok2000Agree. Altogether the peak moment of this video.
great meme
No
This, and 'because you value flavor' are the absolute stand out lines from each for sure. Great vid tho in all the skipping was jarring but fine.
The lady in the crowd affirming John’s disgust for aniseed balls is the absolute best.
My mom was from Nice France and took my brother and myself there in the 60's and they had them there. I remember them as a nasty taste. I'm 69 now.
Yeah 3:28 was perfect lead up to that
God that Lady made me laugh. Just the abject disgust present in her voice. Fantastic.
I'm just gonna imagine that was the Queen :P
My grandma came to this Country from England. and I have to say her response would have been identically the same as the woman in the audience.
John Oliver wiping away a tear as he says "That'll be a nice surprise... for my parents" while dying laughter at the passive aggressive headline is PEAK comedy
Funnily enough, the body of the article was exceptionally complimentary.
@@-danR If it wasn't, you'd know the writer wasn't a Brit! (Meaning the passive aggressive headline, with an overall positive article lol)
@@-danR
It's ironic 😂
I LOOOOVE how John giggles like a child and bounces when he’s most excited 🤣 you can tell he’s genuinely happy to be there
love his laugh ❤😂🎉
You can tell that Seth and John are actually mates when they're not on screen, rather than just professional acquaintances. There's a genuine warmth there, references to texting each other about stuff, etc. You get a real vibe of friends just hanging out and trying to crack each other up, even on the occasions when John's there to promote something as part of his job.
I wish more "late night" television was like this!
He's a bad enough actor that that looks believable.
I know that this video is supposed to highlight how funny John is but I still think Seth's "You're our royal correspondent by fate more than anything else" is a underrated gem.
I would bet anything that John had that title on The Daily Show at some point.
In love with the one random Brit in the audience who was so polite and also so clearly despised aniseed balls.
I still stand by my request/demand that Seth Meyers and John Oliver do a Day Drinking episode, once the strike is lifted. Two of my most favorite people interacting with each other whilst sober ... can't wait to see them inebriated. :D
I stand by his request as well!!!
YES O GOD YES
amen brother
I think they could film it now… those segments aren’t written (are they? Maybe Seth’s Day Drinking lines *are* written for him. My question is, how does he remember all his lines when he gets so drunk? Or even read cue cards by then? 🤔Maybe they do a lot of cuts and re-takes…)
@@HRHDMKYTthe writer’s strike is over now so this matters less, but just for reference, all the interviews and similar segments use writers (they select and prepare the games and outline questions, talking points, and general content for the segment)
FULL SUPPORT for THE WRITERS AND ACTORS! John Oliver is out there doing stand-up to support his crew. He is the GOAT. Power to the People.
PS miss it all, even Corrections. But support i you guys to the bitter end.
@@LaGuerre19yeah if AI takes over too much there will be no more brilliant ideas to copy
Seth is with him.
💙from a fellow jackal
@@tytania3545 agreed 👍
I've said it before and I'll say it again: in the coming decades, looking back at Oliver on Myers will be like seeing Rickles or Dangerfield on Carson, or like Bill Murray on Letterman, or Norm on Conan. Maybe even better. It's classic comedy happening before our very eyes. And Seth and John both obviously have a conscience and seem like stand-up (no pun intended) guys who genuinely care about other people.
I love how physical John is when he laughs.
His whole body giggles!!!
His eyes when he said (around 24:14), “But there was that split second of, ‘Burn Her.’” just killed me a little from sheer perfection of him going from jolly laughter to a soulless dead serious serial killer kind of stare!
The bit about the Muppet performers being so good at making you see the puppet as the real person reminds me of an interview with Frank Oz. He said that frequently when there's a Muppet guest on a show that doesn't normally have muppets, Frank would have to remind the sound guy that it doesn't work to put the mic on the puppet you have to put it on him.
As a former audio tech, that is bloody hilarious. :)
I could totally see myself carefully clipping a lav mic onto Fozzie Bear's tie and then going "wait, wtf am I doing right now?"
Yep she is British saying “yes I do indeed” lmao 🤣
she sounds like my aunties
I love how they enjoy the conversation they're having so much that they almost seem to forget there's an audience there until they react.
I love when John get so excited, or he's laughing so hard that he bounces in his seat 😂🤣🤣🤣
The best of John Oliver is very good indeed.
Proud of you guys for sticking by the writers and actors, but I cannot tell you how many times I've thought to myself about how the folks at Late Night would've tackled a certain headline.
Just one Jamie ?
I can think of a whole tub of headlines that they would have had a bath in !!
Yeeeees! 😩😩😩
If I were a conspiracy idiot, I’d say this strike will be made to last past the presidential election or at least past the trials, and the reason is that Colbert, Oliver and Myers (for starters) would absolutely tear people apart.
They are missing Comedy Gold at the Mo.
I feel the same way about SNL, especially the older episodes.
Both John Oliver + Cookie Monster videos = pure magic
Thanks for that- I'll have to look them up!!
I watch the outtakes every once in awhile when I'm feeling a bit down--spectacular.
Watching the interview from right before covid lockdowns, so freaky right now.
Seth and John is my favourite pairing, most natural interview of any of the late nights
Yeah, so funny how casual the approach was so close to it upturning the world
Just watching this as my dad has COVID today. Makes the time warp even weirder.
Yeah, but John was kind of right …. Every last $hit_gargling, GQP, anti mask, anti vax, white_ni§§er ma§§ot who took up a hospital bed …. 🔥
Arrogant f1lth
At the end of December 2019 i was being a hermit amd deep diving on youtube and saw video and comments on the illfated but brave whistleblower Dr Chen on YT and straight away it was clear this was something huge. In fact there were lots of people already sick in the US in late 2019. And all this was before the Chinese New Year superspreader events. And then governments moved so slowly!
I love how these two feed off of each other and get funnier and funnier. They each make the other better.
Same. Love these two together
John has a great chemistry with Seth and Stephen Colbert. Seth can keep up with John's wit though.
Such brilliance can not be dimmed.
We miss John Oliver and Seth Meyers' humor. We understand that not being fairly compensated is no joke. We look forward to the writers' and actors' eventual return.
They are doing a podcast with Colbert, Fallon, and Kimmel
I am crying my eyes out at the cocaine bit. He just says it with such a corporate speech that it absolutely broke me 😂😂😂
Pay the writers and actors! We need you during the ceazy campaign season
Crazy, or sleasy? Either one is fine.
@@SDU2023 creazy
John Oliver always makes me laugh😂 He has the best laugh himself as well 😅😂😂
The cocaine "ad" bit was absolutely brilliant, watching John internally comprehend - in real time - that running with this gag maybe isn't a _great_ idea for several reasons, but realising that he's committed now and just steaming ahead with it anyway. A great bit of interview-television, I love the way these two bounce off each other so well (like literally bouncing in John's case).
I love them name dropping Muppets. 🥰
I love them name dropping the cartels
@@Tonyhouse1168 That *was* a pretty good ad.😂🤣
If you were to change a couple of letters in your name, it would be even better 😅
I think about "how dare you use a recent and specific example" all the time lol
"Bay-on-say" is peak Dad vibes 😂
reminder to support your writers and actors! donate to relief funds or support their independent projects :)
Love John Oliver. Also unsubscribing until the people who actually do the work are paid a fair share of the revenue that they generate, and writers are given an environment that lets them best show and develop their skill.
@@andrewtorrens7790that’ll show em!
One great option - listen to Strike Force Five!
John Oliver is, hands down, the best late night host out there right now.
In my ranking, he is tied for second but that’s probably because I don’t have HBO.
John Oliver is one person I have truly missed during the strikes. I hope that the writers union can get good contracts so that he can come back. I miss Seth Meyers too. But listening to John Oliver insult the heck out of these idiots that are horrible for average people is awesome!
Him, Seth, Colbert and a couple of ancillary Jimmies are doing a podcast to fund their writer's expenses over the strikes, and I recommend checking it out.
@@probably-aquarion
That’s really great to know…thanks!
I desperately miss all these guys and I really hope they're doing well. But solidarity: Stay strong and fight the good fight!
And remember: Mama ain't raise no scabs!
They have a podcast right now, with others. Proceeds go to all their employees. Strike Force Five
Unless John unknowingly hid in his office for quiet to record the podcast.
John and Seth are just the best people! ❤❤❤ miss both of them so much. Let's get this strike sorted asap so we can have these wonderful people back.
John’s complete disdain for the British family as a Brit is so funny 😆
So, so funny guys!! A whole 1/2 hour of non-stop laughing!! Thank you, I needed this today❤
John Oliver will always be my GOAT, when it comes to satire news shows
5:19 "Rugby and cricket was allowed to go ahead and football had to stop in an act of, I think, tangible class warfare"
😂😂😂😂😂
Two of the funniest, sweetest, most genuine men on the planet. Glad the strike was finally settled - as everyone knows, this was about the writers and production crew, and Actors who play smaller roles, and Studios not being allowed to steal Actor’s images through AI (disgusting) not about the big names. I LOVE how John wears a First Cavalry Division insignia on his lapel in honour of Kate’s service. Seth and John together = Comedic Bliss 😂💖
I miss both of these men sooooo much! Pay your writers, pay your writers, pay your writers! And pay actors so Seth has someone to interview.
I've watched this 8 times! Love John Oliver! Love Seth and John together! NEED ALL LATE NIGHT SHOWS BACK 😭😭😭😭
I dare you to do Day drinking with John Oliver during the World Cup
Every time I see a new video on Late Night with Seth Meyers channel, l’m like YEEESSS! And then I’m like oh(( Stay strong guys! Support the writers!❤
15:01 Top 3 show moment for me. I always replay it 15+ times wen i come across it. The way he has the wherewith-all to replay ripping his arm away from his wife kills me every time. *"I'M TALKING TO THE LADY!"*
We need more interactions with these 2. They are hilarious together!!
KEEP SUPPORTING SAG-AFTRA AND WGA! @NBC and other studios, pay your writers and actors and all crew members fair salaries and protect their work from AI, for goodness’ sakes.
Having said that, God I love these two and this video brings me joy. So glad that they’re standing by their teams
John Oliver is so funny he’s the Robin Williams of guests. He’s guaranteed to get a laugh and you never know quite what he’s going to say, you just go with it.
while I completely support the writers and actors strike, I also do miss late night so badly!
Dito!
Saaaame! 😩😩
Good news that I am sure you have heard by now. A tentative agreement was reached so, unless something totally blows the deal up, the late night stuff should be up and running again soon.
Thumbs up for John engaging an audient and getting EXACTLY the humorous response he expected.
i love how much seth genuinely makes john laugh
These two are the best ever, and strike force five really cemented it. If they don’t meet up weekly I’m gonna be mad. Give them a CBS and NBC show together, it would be epic.
John Oliver could be a professional talk show host guest. I'd watch every one.
john oliver is my absolute favorite!
Best Monday morning pick-me-up. But to be fair, I think all of his moments are his best moments 🤣 to the GOAT!
Two of my favorite hosts. Miss them both right now but I support the strike too
Just pay the damn writers fairly so we can get our new shows back! They deserve it, just freaking pay it!
I saw john oliver last night in Philly. Great show.
I miss Colbert whole heartedly and the Jimmy's whatever they did. I work for UPS and nearly went through this and respect what they are doing. Godspeed. Comedy and insight is something we need.
Oh my John!!!! I see John and I click! Strike force fiiiiiive!!! ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
This is my absolute favorite comedic duo!
I so enjoyed these interviews! I love Seth and John so much and together they are gold! I think it was well done to play the before the pandemic got serious iinterview and after the pansemic had ebbed interview. Very cool. I miss Seth and John so much but am so happy they are standing by their writers.
Jeez, I can't tell you how much I miss Seth, so iconic. I live in England and miss him so much.
So disgusting the studios haven’t brought a decent offer to the table yet to end the strike. We need the show back so bad 😢.
Ive been getting by on clips like these and the Strike Force Five⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️podcast!!!!! The latest episode 5 was particularly great, they were all so giggly and genuinely enjoying each other and sharing their silly minds 😂. Stay strong writers and crews, we support you!!❤💪🏽🙏🏼
calinny. I've been watching John Oliver reruns. I haven't seen them all over the years. It's been great; I forgot a lot of really great episodes. But I also miss these late night shows but always support the unions. ALWAYS. Without unions, we're all screwed.
I just have to say thank u bcuz I had no idea about the podcast!
Thank you very much
Yeah, it was fantastic! The way everyone was ripping Fallon apart, especially John who was taking the piss. 😂
Geniuses together, THE BEST two-man improv in existence. Be amazed at the genius spark we see in the cocaine bit ( yes that's right) at 12:15 when John sez "Sinalo....." and Seth describes the bit, and John starts again with a complete routine, a "bit"....
I love to watch John Oliver when he finds something funny. His entire body shows his joy ! These two are both terrific.
We love these two. When Seth comes back, can we have John on the show?
Miss you guys! Don't give up, though!
John's reaction to "I always have lunch at steakhouses" is why I need them to have monthly talks hahahaha
JImmy Kimmel interviewing John Mulaney and Seth interviewing John Oliver are the best interview clips on TH-cam
John Oliver is NOT a failed comedian here in UK! That Times article is crap!
LOL sounds like the person who wrote the article is not a fan. Pretty clear what that comment is based in, but would have been a bit more accurate to say "British comedian finds stardom in America", or something to that effect.
@@dougr550 it's Murcoch's gutter press. They're never going to treat JO fairly
British press are scum. They murdered Diana, who knows what they'd do to John. We're keeping him.
Stay strong! We’re with you!!
Being at a dinner with Seth and John just watching - life goal🙃
This is a great way to do a walk down memory lane with Seth's past sets
Fantastic clips! And I love how you juxtaposed the two COVID clips. Well done!
When the strike ends, I hope Seth and John do many more of these! To me this is comedy.
Please do a best of Wally!
5:43 I was at the first Tottenham game after the Queen's death. The crowd was not able to last the full minute of silence. It devolved within 20 seconds.
I miss both these men and their teams.
My 2 favorite comedians. I wish I could see them in Vegas this year!
That was such a delightful 1/2 hour. Thank you late night!!
Miss You, Seth & Crew!
You can always tell Seth pre-pandemic and post-pandemic by checking to see if he’s wearing a suit.
@21:19 That sheepish grin to the audience from Seth. Just priceless!
I remember that drug cartel bit, it had me to stitches, back then
Love John Oliver!
Hey Seth, looking forward to seeing your show again. I love the work your writers do and hope they got everything they needed.
I absolutely love me some John Oliver. Oh. Seth is great, too. Yeah!
Yes! John and Seth are awesome together
John Saying "The British people are absolute black belts at Passive Aggression"
He hit the nail on the head so hard with that! He's 100% correct.
You ain't seen passive aggressive until you've spent some time in the UK.
Great compilation! Thank you so much!
I get in a good mood seeing these little edits by actual seth meyers show. Bring them all back already.
We love john oliver and seth meyers
THIS is the DAY DRINKING duo that I need to see!!
I love their dynamic so much!
this was hilarious, funny, intelligent, amusing, just wonderful! Thank you for this compilation.
Hey! Aniseed balls were great for the first 5 seconds, then it was just a tooth chipping confused flavour experience. Buy those first 5 seconds were awesome 😁
They sound horrid, nearly as horrid as liquorice all-sorts, which my mother loves and I loathe
And they are very useful together with limpet mines 🫡
They remind me of the small aniseed balls we put on buttered rusk in the Netherlands to celebrate the birth of a child; 'beschuit met muisjes' (rusk with little mice). White and pink small aniseedballs for a girl and white and blue for a boy. They are quite tasty however, so may be the texture is different to English aniseed balls?
@@marianneootjers4786 British aniseed balls are very hard, then moderately hard but slightly crumbly, and there's an actual seed right in the centre.
I bet they would work well dissolved in vodka.
I love this compilation. There's nothing better than hearing them. Wrongfully predict COVID and 20 seconds later regret it
21:49 - Wow, this part sure aged well. I’m so glad they did a follow up on that interview 2 years later.
Correction: a true “best of” John Oliver would feature the interviews in their entirety!
Miss you guys so much
As a seahawks fan 9 years later, I can confirm John was right. It never leaves. 😪
