He uses simple words, easy to follow, and flat-out kills. Timing, personality, voice -- this man had it all. RIP John!
finely tuned words, descriptive and to the point, that's what makes him so good, he paints a picture with his descriptions.
He had all the cholesterol, also.
Saw him live in Saskatoon, felt bad for my sister, she was front row centre, and almost died from lack of oxygen from laughing so hard. Once she started laughing, he zeroed in on her, and was relentless!
I thought it would be because his stomach was suffocating her.
You guys should be comics.
What made up BS
That’s funny.
I may be out tomorrow Sid.
Binge watch John from time to time … “get out of the line”. I think this every time I’m in line. His clean humor is some of the best! RIP John.
like UK peter Kaye..check him owt
I was working in a car dealership when he got famous. Whenever the office asked when a car would be done the standard response was 4 hour! LOL
I took my kids to see him in what turned out to be the last year of his life. And that man was even funnier in person, if that was possible. A rare gift we received with John and one we'll always remember fondly and miss forever.
He kept getting better and better and when I found him online I was so heartbroken that he had passed away. He left a big hole in comedy
One of the G O A T, miss him so much
Loved this man. Thanks for all the laughs John. Miss you. Rest in peace.
Literally one of the best comedians that has ever existed.
Little did he know, Sharknado would be a thing someday! RIP John, you were an awesome comedian!
God I miss John! We could use some of his comedy now.
Ain’t that the truth!!
I’ve been looking for the shark clip for years. Finally found it -so funny. He truly was one of the worlds funniest guys
Me to I busted my head open listening to the jaws. Fell of the coach hit my head on coffee table laughing so hard
The getting attacked by the shark gestures were hilarious.
One of, if not my favorite comedians ever. He was great!
Man, how i miss this guy. Such a wonderful comedic talent he was.
SOOOOOOO FUNNY! And refreshing proof that it can be done without every other word being an F-bomb!
Flawless execution and it couldn't be easy for the big man, I'm glad the audiences realized and appreciated him, he was truly a gifted entertainer.
I wonder if it is part fat suit. Seems that it covers a little too much.. just saying. Maybe he lost weight and it hurt his comedic persona.
@ Glenn: Totally agree!

@@aaronsmith5433 hahah thanks.. you started my day off right..
@@trevormiles5852 I had to go back and see it again and you're correct!
He was without a doubt the funniest ever. I miss him.
Wow! Some Pinette material I had never seen before! Excellent!
He only got better, and left us hungry for more!
LOL
Me too! But the bread joke is old.
And dry …
He was one of the best. So sad he died back in 2014, just barely after he turned 50. He had such a great comedy routine.
The good ones like John leave us too soon. Comics who use foul language to be funny live far too long.
Watch John every chance I get
His humour has gotten me through some hard times
Thank you much big man, you will not be forgotten.
So glad my brother and I saw him in person, Palace Casino, Biloxi, MS. He was excellent! Miss his comedy.
He was such a funny guy. He is missed.
Simply brilliant………. The World misses you………. Bravo mon capitaine
Happy Memorial day, fellow Troop. Black horse June 69 to Sept. 70.
@@oldmanfromoc7684 Welcome brother………. 11th ACR. Class of 67
A master at self depricating humor. Miss him.
The Beach? No. I don't want to go. I wanna stay home and clean my room! LOL~~
I used to watch an evening at the improv all the time in the early to mid 90's and I remember this set by Pinette. Thank you for the upload
Saw John perform the role of Edna in the Broadway musical "Hairspray". He was wonderful! and then I was privileged to be part of a Q&A session he did for our group after the performance (when he surely would've preferred to shower and go home?). What a gentle, funny, wonderful man. RIP John
He’s was a funny guy. I wished I’d been to see him. Damn! RIP big man.
John performed at our grocery store company convention. Talk about performing in front of the perfect crowd. 1000 foodies in the house.
What a genius of comedy! Carry on through with your humor forever beyond!!
That man was such a blessing to this world. 👍💕💕💕👏👏👏
One of my favourites ! Miss him so much! Thanks for sharing this !
If science could decipher the mind of a comic, in John they would discover a plethora of genius.
Gone too soon. A true comic genius. He always played off of his size, and was great at it but he would’ve been hilarious no matter what.
Class Act! Miss Him...
I wish I could have seen him in person before he passed. Very funny man!! Gone too soon. ☮️💜
John was great! Before the internet I didn’t see him very often. TH-cam is good for this great stuff! Meanwhile, that’s the difference between the free market where bread waits for people, and socialism where people wait for bread. Brilliant observational comedy.
John Pinette was about as good as it got. That man was HILARIOUS!!
I was heartbroken when I learned that John passed away. So sad!
Two words: Sharknado! 😂
Great funny guy with a sharp mind. Gone too soon but not forgotten...
May his legacy of laughs live on forever! Rest in peace, John Pinette
We lost you far too soon John. You were terrific!
Just brilliant !
He was born to make people laugh! What a talent!
He is just too funny 😂
Was at a buffet today for lunch and figured I'd come here.
I once worked on a cruise ship at the buffet. Let me tell you, John Pinette would not necessarily have stood out of the crowd. Seen many people of similar size.
Holy crap the MC is Jameson Parker from Simon & Simon! RIP John Pinette he was such a funny man and he sadly died much too young.
The audio for some reason was very low. Thinking it was equipment failure on my end, I was getting ready to throw my pc out the window, until I pulled up his youtube "Still Hungry" video. His food jokes came roaring through my speakers..All is right in the world, again.
HE WAS THE GOAT. BEST EVER. 😅
We LOVE YA John !
Entertaining God Now, Making everyone laugh again.
I love this guy. Wish I got to see him live
HE WAS VERY HAPPY AND I APPRECIATE HIM.😅
What a treat! I’ve never seen this performance either! A 🌟 gone too soon.
Holy Mackerel! That was funny. 😂😂😂
RIP he was SO funny. Miss him.
The man was a Gem !
I miss him so much 😭 he was so funny
I miss him.
All you can eat buffet not mean all day! You been here four hour!
OWUHH!
You too big! You need vechable!
OMG, hadn't seen this one yet...so dang funny.
This better be great bread!!!
2:05... "Can you imagine if a Russian citizen walked into one of our supermarkets?"...
True story - I'm now retired from a Sheriff's department in a county of about 900,000 population. In the late 1980s, perestroika was in full bloom. Our State Department was encouraging professional exchange between similar government agencies in Russia. A deputy who worked for me had family in Russia, and actually had a doctorate in some Russian discipline. He arranged an exchange between our department and a law enforcement agency in Russia. When their officers (All command staff, mind you.) came to the U.S. we showed them our criminal justice system along with as much of our culture as we had time for. The three areas that amazed them most were Disneyland, the sponsor's homes, and the supermarkets. They thought that the average working person in the U.S. lives in a castle. And anytime one of the sponsors' family members went to the store, they wanted to go with them and just look at all of the food. One of them commented that there was more cheese in one of our supermarkets than there was in their entire home city (A city of two or three hundred thousand as I recall.) On their last day before going back to Russia we offered to take them to whatever venue they wanted to see... They chose a supermarket.
Just amazing no matter what he does to funny from this early days first time I see this ty to the rest of his career very gifted creative talented and always some thing different is why he was so like and so big in comedy
I never got to see him. But I really wish I had.
JP, you were awesome!
He was a funny funny man🤣🤣🤣
Jaws 4, Gorbachev and Safeway shows just how old this really is!
AWESOME GOOD COMEDIAN. VERY FUNNY PERSON. AWESOME GOOD INDEED..😂
For those interested, the host is actor Jameson Parker, known for the TV series Simon and Simon, among other things.
I loved this guy RIP
That atmosphere screams 1991.
He was great. Still miss him
John was a very funny comedian. I loved that he didn't use too many curse words in his performance.
On a side note: in Jaws 4 - why would the shark seek revenge? Do the have a bulletin board where the sharks that get killed are listed with the name of their killer? Then one shark gets it in his head to do something about it? 😂😂😂
Watched it again....totally hysterical
Miss you always
This was so funny. Thanks for posting.
VERY GOOD INDEED AWESOME NICE WORK. Sadly missed nowadays 😪
HE IS VERY GOOD INDEED AWESOME FUNNY PERSON THANK GOODNESS FOR HIM. 😅
Delivery with a capital D ....we miss you dearly John.
Funny ... but as he aged, he got funnier .
And got fatter and died 😱
@@theothertroll Actually, I think it was his dieting that killed him.
You can see how he wove this early stuff into his more well known work
"HE'S NOT FAT!!!... he's...fluuuuffffy."😌
Que Unlimited "HE'S NOT FAT!!!... he's...fluuuuffffy" I may have to differ with you on that point. Mr. Pinette, at this time, was, "Daaaaamn!"lol That is said with a lot of love, respect and affection for some who continues to make me laugh, no matter how many times I've heard his stories. Rip, John Pinette. You left the world better than you found it.
That is what's called "KILLING IT!"
I had tears from laughing.
The comedy stylings lol
Brilliant comedian. So funny.
There's an empty bunkbed upstairs.
Golly.
A shark would look at him and think he was at an all you can eat buffet
That jaws bit fucking killed me
His made up version of Jaws 4 actually sounds a lot better than the real version.
I had an idea once, and not since
Rest in Peace, big funny man.😇
it's too bad he didn't live long enough to see the Sharknado movies. ;-)
This guy IS FUNNY.
He was from Massachusetts went to Malden catholic high school class of 1984 he did fund raising for the school over the years in from Massachusetts to
The reason Jerry, Kosmo, George and Elaine went to jail for a year........
Funny man. The buffet's of the world are now safe now. RIP.
I like that Orange Cassidy did the intro.
