#LightsOut
This man was huge for my childhood. The Mask, Dumb and Dumber and Ace Ventura were my holy trinity of comedy.
Shrapnel92 FACT'S
I haven't seen Sonic yet but everyone is saying that he plays Robotnik like did those characters.
Would you believe they all came out the same year?
@@digiprez77 Ah you beat me to the comment. Yep, '94 and '95 were probably Jim's busiest and most lucrative years.
110% truth, born in 1980 here
I’m glad David had Jim on here alone without others. It’s good to just hear them two talk.
Jim is too big a presence to have on with others. He would end up dominating the room anyway, so best not to have others muddy the interview/jokes/anecdotes. Good decision.
Spade's humor has aged better than any comedian I am aware of
I've never seen Norm laugh harder than when he had David on his podcast
@@HoneyMike and THAT is high praise
You should check out Dave Attell.
Dude... you are SPOT ON... totally right... it's like the world caught up with him...
Spade has always been funny same same
The Leonid Brezhnev impression is just wonderful. He does so little, but it's so perfect.
I was in the crowd for this taping and it was really cool to see Jim Carrey talking about serious issues even just for a little bit.
What did he say was on top of the building? Idk why they bleeped it out.
@@TheXKL1NEx An NBC Page in a blue coat was standing on the top of the NBC logo on the building. I believe the censored part was David Spade saying, "Shut the fuck up."
I wasn't at the taping like the person in the original comment but I hope this helps.
@@raebae2069 makes sense. I'm just not used to them censoring the host lol.
So did he skip the audition? Seems unlikely.
Hot crowd you were in. Were laughing at anything there.
Jim needs to host award shows to bring comedy back alive
As long as Ricky Gervais can host one I'm down with that
David Spade should be the one hosting award shows. I may actually check them out.
YEEEES AGREED
LOL Jim Carrey? Comedy? That is much funnier than anything Jim Carrey has done for two decades.
Ehhh award shows?
Spade and Carrey. A delightful combo.
Jim and Davids humor compliments each other very well, Jims more wild and wacky, Dave is very sarcastic and dry, you can tell they genuinely find each other funny, its not forced like Jim and Stephen lmao
Dave is so much better than younger comedians due to decades of experience and a wealth of knowledge.
Is soo good as a host show
Sort of, except when he goes off on his instagram likes and shopping. Then he sounds like every other L.A. putz.
I love Jim Carrey, I wish the episode was longer. 20 minutes wasn't enough, I could listen to Jim C. & David Spade talk for hours.
Love both of them! David wasn't obnoxious or fake like most talk show hosts. That's probably why Jim was so relaxed and chill.
Jim is on every show the last few days! He must be tired of so many interviews.
its part of the process
I think hes liked the interactions. Hes in a better place than he was a few years ago it seems, and I think he's enjoying the vibes of the club scene in those smaller rooms like he said
He’s promoting the Sonic movie it’s normal
@@santosgarcia1893 And Kidding season 2 right? I personally like it, it's different.
Jim Carrey can walk onto a stage with no jokes prepared and be hilarious.
You found him hilarious here? Are you fucking insane? Name one classic comedic film he has been a part of in the last 20 years.
@Matthew Grant You would
@Matthew Grant 80% of the comedy legends wouldnt be funny if they had been prolific for 20 years but hadn't produced anything quality? Yeah, I stand by that. Actually Me Myself and Irene was released on 3rd Aug 2000, so over 20 years from when you posted. Only Bruce Almighty was released within 20 years. So your hero has one redeemable film within 20 years from now? Want to list any other great films he's been in within 20 years?
@Matthew Grant Someone can sully their record by failing to succeed for extended periods of time. Carey is this person.
@@ajnode -god damn dude relax....what did he fuck your girlfriend or something? The man is clearly a comedic genius meanwhile you grow more bitter by the minute
woah, totally cool to see Jim Carrey on the show. i feel like the last decade for him was a tough one, he seemed extremely introspective to the point of almost no return. it’s really good to see him happy and swinging a little more to a joyful equilibrium and retaining his growth but yet he made it full circle. peace to you Jim- we love you man!❤️✨🙏
He had a spiritual awakening. It usually screws people up for a few years before they're able to just chill out and start enjoying life again. I speak from experience.
accordion_devotionals You too! ❤️
Narthumpulous I totally feel ya! ✨
I first fell in love with Jim Carrey’s comedy with Fire Marshall Bill on ILC. Amazing he navigated the weight of fame so well….
Me too, I was a kid but my sisters and I would roll up our top lips and imitate him constantly!
the token white guy stole the show
Late 80's kids fully get this comment...good day sir
TH-cam has been better this last month with all the Jim Carey interviews
You guys were my childhood. I would love to see you guys do a one hour special together. You guys would be killer.
First of all, love he’s hot pink jacket. Second, just love him one of kind talented artist comedy and art, brilliant guy ❤️
When you haven't been funny for 20 years, you have to wear a flashy jacket to take the attention off it.
@@ajnode if you say it once & it dies doing it twice is just sad
" All that we seek is our own absence."
-Ace Ventura physicality- " NAILED IT"
What does that even mean? 🤷♀️
I don't seek my own absence
@@adorable3817 It means you're your worst critic. Get out of your own head and to think about things from a different perspective.
@@NotYetEst I've only recently actually gotten to know myself, and after all these years finally love myself and enjoy spending time with me/myself.
(I used to want to be with people and put a lot of energy into friends, trying to understand why certain things they said and did hurt so deeply. I didn't want to be sensitive, but I definitely was! And that's annoying to my friends, and even more so to me (about myself)
Looking for others to fill the void.
Since discovering myself, I'm SOOOO much more chill 🙏😎 thank goodness!
So back to Jim, so what he's saying - seeking our own absence - is avoiding yourself, right? Turn your back on yourself?
@@adorable3817 The absence of yourself in your mind 24/7, your ego, etc. Not thinking objectively.
@@NotYetEst thank you for helping me to understand this 🙏😉 you're wonderful 🤗
In other words - inner peace?
Or, what exactly is attached to yourself?
Because, if "yourself" is absent, isn't love, passion, compassion and gratitude....life, all gone as well?
Last question, I promise,
How does a person who is "absent" from themselves act like?
The fact that Carrey DIDN'T join SNL but instead landed on In Living Color was one of the reasons ILC did so well. That and Jaime Fox. But his characters on ILC were so good and so outlandish that I don't think they would have made it on SNL. He's comedy lifted the bar on all the sketches on ILC. Wayan's brothers and Fox were good too but Carrey was just a rocketship.
Jamie Foxx wasn’t a huge name bc of ILC, nor was he ever the main player.
The big breakouts initially were Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans.
Outside of Wanda…and to a lesser extent, Carl “The Tooth” Williams, Jamie Foxx didnt even have any good characters.
When people talk about ILC, they always bring up Jamie Foxx, but thats bc he has become a big name after he started appearing in big budget films like Ali, Collateral, and Ray. But David Alan Grier, Tommy Davidson, Kelly Coffield, and Tommy Davidson were all bigger contributors to that show than Foxx.
When Jim pulled that face was hilarious 😂
He is an amazing painter. I would love to see an exhibition of his work.
Two of my favorite comedians.
I Met a guy from Australia once. In making small talk he asked what my favorite movie was, I thought about it and said, Joe Dirt. He laughed and said freakin Joe Dirt. Good memory haha.
It’s also nice to see comedians interview comedians. I’ve noticed they are more likely to be themselves and does not make it awkward when they say a joke. There is a sense of understanding and respect and they have for one another.
I raised my son on Jim Carrey comedy. He practiced incredible impersonations in the mirror....such that our neighbor complained to me one day!
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
This is such an underrated conversation I'd never dreamed of this
Love seeing Jim at peace
Leonid Brezhnev, damn. That's a deep cut.
David Spade should just do one on one. Brings out the best in him!
What I really like about these interactions David has, is that they are 100% genuine. You can tell Jim is himself and he feels comfortable. He's speaking openly to a friend, a person and a human.
It's also great to see that Jim seems to be in a better place now. Money and fame is not equal to happiness. At the end of the day we are all human beings with our own problems and views of the world.
Carrey is the personification of brilliance and insanity mixed with an intrinsic nature we all can relate to!
We can? I can’t relate to him at all.
With a heaping of asshole to his fellow performers and coworkers for good measure.
Rt L well I guess you’re not forthcoming!
Lesson learned. When a squirrel steals your mango in NYC, you say f**k the mango and bail!
Two really fast thinking comedians!
Jim Carrey hasn't been funny for 20 years, get the fuck. Name the last genuinely funny, classic movie this guy made. I'll wait.
@@wc6046 It's an Australian term, gronk.
@@ajnode not Australian, probably British or Irish.
@@samuelwoods164
I'm Australian...
@@ajnode I mean sonic was really good. lol
Joe Dirt vs ... Ace Ventura crossover. You can do it.(
Dennis Finch is Spade’s most iconic role. Him and Ventura. There’s a movie.
No! on all levels. Ace Ventura pics are Legendary comedy pics. Joe Dirt was good (at best) but an off story. Rob should apply at dominos pizza and slip into the oven for comedic relief.
@@albertenriquez7079 Joe Dirt was amazing. What are you talkin about?
Do these two characters belong in a cross over? No lol but it ain't because Joe Dirts not funny.
Ace Ventura would wipe the floor with joe dirt even though joe dirt is dope af
Anyone else bummed that David Spade's show is cancelled? I never watched it, and now that I watch these clips on TH-cam, I wish it was on because i would watch it habitually! Any chance it could be brought back?
These 2 would be great in a movie together.
Every time I watch The Cable guy I’m laughing hysterically. My favorite comedian ever.
I still love watching David Spade.❤
LOVED Just Shoot Me
I was addicted to it !!!!!
Jim achieved such a monumental status during his prime that he’ll always be an icon.
In Living Color reunion please!
Childhood hero of mine. One of the funniest humans of all time.
2 of my favorite comedians right here
Man, that Leonid Brezhnev face proves that Jim's face is still made entirely of rubber.
Jim is probably the king of comedy movies. Has classic after classic after classic
Only for about 9 years though. After Bruce Almighty his star died.
the guy's laugh at 3:54 got jim really going, and credit where its due, that was a great joke.
This is another great show thank you David
Great to see Jim with his soul back
He would put out such a present and timeless definitive multimedia collaborative introspective special right now.
What a great duo- 2 aged & matured hall of gamers that stood the test of time. Love it
David Spade:
Jim Carrey:
The audience: YEAHHHH WOOOO *applause*
I'm 62, watched Spade grow up, never really liked his humor except in the SNL sketches. Didn't like his movies either, just not my style, same w Sandler even. But now, just like w Sandler's recent (OSCAR WORTHY) movies & phenomenal standup, through Lights Out I am now a HUGE Spade fan!! Maturity has brought a low-key consistent brilliance & hilariously consistent comedy to everything he does on here, even as a great interviewer! Can't see Adam doing this, but David has really found an entire new groove & group of fans, like me! Now I've been watching & really appreciating his previous stuff, esp his standup. Plus, he's gotten really hot😁Very sexy, smooth, & comfortable with himself & his easy humor, doesn't need to try as hard do not goofy, I adore him & can't get enough..... REALLY needs a Netflix special now like Sandler & Murphy👍😍 Feel same about Carrey's comfortable, funny, non-goofy, less extreme comic maturity as well, Kidding is freaking brilliant!! Both these guys are super-comics🙌👏
Two great guys. World is a better place because of these living legends.
BRING BACK LIGHTS OUT DAMMIT! We want SPADE!!
The goat to me !!! Love love love jimbo
nice. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Joe DIrt are 2 of my all time favorite movies.
I wish that clip could go on for ever ...
Are you a masochist?
@@ajnode if you don't like them then comedy is not for you !
@@whataloadofbollox bahahaha if comedy to you means David Spade and 2020 Jim Carrey... Then yeah, fuck comedy
@@whataloadofbollox are you on your 5th watch of the wrong missy and sonic?
@@ajnode Oooh, I touched a nerve, I feel sorry for you, goodbye.
Realized just the other day.... my sense of humour is dark. Just absolutely depraved.
Certain this a result of maturity;) No more BS. Seeing things as they actually are.
Damn going through same transition lol
a Jim carry & Eddie murphy story would be next level
This is a great show - spade for sure should be more acknowledged as a talk show host - take over from the dross that is Kimmel, Fallon and Corden
I've been a fan of Jim Carrey since day one of In Living Color.
Im happy he's down to earth in this show.
Down to earth? At one point he projects his inner psycho and says we all want to not exist.
I'd love to see a Jim Carrey one-hour stand-up special!
Damn Davey!
CRUSHIN’!!!
🙌
best episode yet
Funny how Jim was giving a thought out answer and David with his "thinker" cut him off. You can tell David is not a "thinker." The fact that he didn't get it is hilarious. Love them both.😍😛💚💙💜
Now I want a movie with Jim Carrey, Emilia Clarke, Zachary Levi and Hugh Jackman in it. Now that would make my day.
Disney65Fan -Why?
*Coffee Time Entertainment*
Two greats still delivering it for us.
Jim Carrey is slowly aging into Fire Marshall Bill.
Zillametal \m/ LET ME TELL YA SOMETHINNNNN! 😂
I would LOVE a jim carrey stand up special
If you look back, there is a Showtime one from right before he was on in Living Colour. It was hilarious.
Pretty sure that Boz Scaggs wore that same blazer on the album HITS!
Start up Lights Out again. I loved it.
Ohh mann would be awesome to see Jim do stand up now
Over 20 years of being a fan of Jim Carrey's he is my number one favorite person EVER, as time goes by I love him even more...hope he's with us for a long time...thank you sir for the laughs ❤
LOL over 20 years? He hasn't released anything funny for over 20 years.
@@ajnode hey if you're not a fan you're not a fan....🤷🏻♀️
@@MariaRodriguez-ez9sj I am a fan of his early work - I'm just curious as to what classic comedy he has been involved with, in your opinion, in the last 15 years
Love both of these guys! Was really happy to see Spade on Whitney Cummings podcast!! Would love to see both of him & Jim around the comedy/podcast scene more often!!!
David Spade on Thoe Von's podcast is great too
I've really missed this dude :-)
The scene where he uses the plunger on his mouth while the music playing is tge Crying Game!!
I feel like if Jim did a special it'd have to be more like a Rowan Atkinson performance than stand-up, like a collection of bits and characters.
I learned how to speak English watching Jim Carrey’s movies over and over. Just loved him.
Hah! “This squirrel started some shit with me once.”
I want to watch this but the full episode
Mike spade said you can watch them on the Comedy Central web page
@@ohbbyilikeitrawr tank s
@@ohbbyilikeitrawr Depends where you live. Can't watch them in Finland.
@@MrHale with VPN u can
Oh spade has a TV show? Hell yes
more than 20 years ago i was 14 was the first time i see my whole family so excited to watch a movie so i watched it with them then i always got hyped everytime a new movie is realesd
Jim seems like a genuine person
the cable guy was such an amazing movie
That blazer is fuckin' rad.
Two of my favorite comedians
An hr special from Jim Carrey would be EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!
Best interview ever!,, I now have sooooooo much respect for David after he defended Steven Segal’s appearance on SNL …. it shows a full maturity that I don’t think was there when he was younger. He has matured and i hope his ratings skyrocket.
Love David Spade in Tommy Boy !!
his age now makes this impression even better
"Lapses in memory are really beneficial"
Jim said David was on his Bucket list But No one Over reacted about it #supportJimCarrey
These two should co host a show ❤
Jim Carrey needs to play as Ace Ventura again. I grew up on the first two Ace Ventura movies.
i love you jim and my mom absolutly loves u spade i love u guys so so amazingly talented both of u love u guys!!!!
I like how David Spade has hired Conan O’Brien’s hair stylist.
Failing his SNL audition was the best thing that ever happened to Jim Carrey, as it made him realize that he needed to develop his own characters instead of just impersonating other people.
Oh my god David Spade has a show? YASSSSSSSSSSS
aaaaand its cancelled
What a great combination these two
They sent him to every show
Damn Spade i see you, hanging out with the big boys.
@Micah Mcgaffin well you'd be wrong
@@calderondennis No...Micha is correct.
@Dennis Calderon wrong about what, having not like A phony Socialist
