John Oliver was remarkably prescient about the outcome of the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, wasn’t he? They didn’t get divorced...but they divorced themselves from the Royal Family.
His great great uncle (the Queen's uncle) did almost the EXACT same thing, except he also abandoned the throne to do it. Spent less than one year as king, married Wallis Simpson (American divorcée) the year after and moved to France after the war, both stayed there until their deaths. At least Harry didn't abandon the throne.
Karrie Dee I see what you are implying about Meghan Markle-which is both uncalled-for and, depending upon the motivation, possibly racist. What I don’t get is your smearing of John Oliver’s wife; she’s a former US Army combat medic who served with the 1st Cavalry Division and was deployed overseas and just happened to meet Oliver by chance (before he had his own show, let alone US citizenship)-how exactly does that make her a “gold-digger?”
Well we all knew it was coming, I was not surprised. Kate just stuck through it and so did the others married into this family but go scratch the surface and you will see something different, I aam not convinced they are all so happy. Look at how skinny Kate became, anorexia is a form of emotional distress and to take control of yourseld. Harry and Meghan are just gutsy and brave to move away, this family is sick and needs help.
Meghan said some howlers though 1. Security isn't tied to titles 2. Archie would not be the first grandchild of a monarch not to be titled Prince/Princess (See Edward's Children) 3. Harry says his dad cut the off when in January he said he wanted financial independance on his website 4. Titles are governed by a monarch's letters' patent. A monarch has the right to change that at any time.(She seriously said 'Who are they to deny him his birthright?'!) 5. Archie is not currently eligible to be a prince. 6. Harry and Meghan published a website full of plans they hadn't negotiated with the Queen that then later had to be hashed out at Sandringham. Yet they say they didn't blindside her 7. Harry complains that being a Prince is to be trapped and Meghan complains their child isn't a Prince 8. Prince Charles has been actively trying to slim down the monarchy for decades, Archie isn't being made an example of 9. Meghan says her passport was taken as if she was held prisoner but then went on numerous foreign holidays 10. Meghan says they 'got married' three days before the church ceremony in their back yard. No marriage is legal without witnesses or taking place in a permanent structure like a church or a town hall What is true is that these are human beings prone to human failings in a gilded cage where everything they say and do is scrutinised and their freedom is curtailed by the security Harry wanted to keep.
@@04nbod 1) meghan was told security is tied to the title. 2) we were told Edward and sophie chose not to have titles (did they?) 3) working towards financial independence and stepping back from their senior roles --> not abandoning all their duties. 4) I would be offended that the monarch would choose not to give the title, when it has been previously granted to the children unless the parents chose not to. If meghan had wrong idea about this I wonder why no one explained when the decision was made. she was left to believe that the rule was changed just then and there. and then the palace claimed harry and meghan did not want titles for archie which was false. 5. but he would be when charles became king and prince george, princess charlotte and prince lois weren't eligeble to become princes either. 6. i don't remember them putting up any website until late last year. they had a small statements and you have no knowledge what was talked with queen or charles." After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution," they said in a statement. "We intend to step back as 'senior' members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen." 7. harry does think he was trapped in Royal family, and meghan was rightly offended that her son was not to be treated the way that grandchildren of kings have been treated. 8. well they did bloody bad job of explaining it to harry and meghan and the punlic. Besides, the palace should have told to the public it was charles's choise not to give Archie titles, if they think that was nothing controversial about that. Now it looks it was just because archies mixed heritage 9. Her passport was handled by the palace workers who also deal with customs. No royal carries their passports or keyes. I can see how that made her feel furter like a prisoner. 10. she said they had a ceremony before the royal wedding "for just two of us". i thought it was obvious she didn't mean the legal sense married, but in emotional sense. I wonder why people made a fuss about it. people redo wedding vows multiple times, they have blessings etc. to me that seemed a sweet thing.
"He's an emotional vaccuum and he'll die that way" "A lost father's love? Trying to fill a void with something tangible?" Damn, that's brutal but probably pretty accurate.
Everybody: here after Oprah Me: over here thinking how creepy it is that the Royal Family not only learned nothing from Diana's death, BUT seems they just don't care either
They did learn from Diana's death though. First of all, Harry was allowed to marry Meghan to begin with. A Commoner 30-something American Divorcee. Remember Diana was a 19 year old Virgin daughter of Earl Spencer. They thought Diana would get it because of her position in life and her youth would mean no one to come out the woodwork with salacious stories about her past. I don't think the Royals are 100% to blame here. Harry himself said their relationship went very quickly. Meghan hadn't lived in England a year before the engagement. I think there was a clash between Meghan's expectations and reality
Also bear in mind that the royals were thought to have gone thru a "Strangers on a Train" (Hitchkock) moment where it was thought that Andrew Parker Bowles escaped being murdered as Diana was. Two widowed people being more eligible to remarry into the royal family than two divorced persons, mind you.
"Spiritual vacuum' technically. Has emotions like rage, but lacks humanitarian (or any other kind of) _compassion._ (which is an attitude formed by patterns of choices, rather than an emotion)
Ashmita Nandy I was going to say the exact same thing! I always love to see John Oliver and Colbert together, the resulting hilariousness is indeed more than the sum of all parts.
There is not the slightest doubt in my mind about that. Ever since they re-elected George W. Bush, we here in the Rest Of The World have known there is _nothing_ you can put past the Americans.
Ashmita Nandy Mmm. I was just thinking their chemistry wasnt that great on this one. Colbert and Jon Stewart, yes their chemistry really was fucking awesome.
John Oliver is a well informed, smart, know the history, know the culture of Britain and know exactly what he’s talking about! I love this guy! People always saying he predicted the life of Meghan but I disagree, he concluded base on facts. Royals don’t want change, the only thing that permanent in this world
John Oliver is my all time favorite. The way he just described the royal family felt like a huge slam but really, it’s just accurate. Which in turn, makes it hilarious.
Seriously John Oliver like a wizard who can see the future,man he got this dead right..I remember watching this interview at that time I thought he was overreacting but boy he got that right
If the many worlds theory is correct, technically they could both your dads in an infinite number of universes. Imagine... an infinite number of Gay John Olivers and Gay Stephen Colberts, as your dads infinitely.
how ironic coming from a dude who reads a script some other people wrote for a camera he doesnt operate in order to have the footage edited by people hes probably never met, while being directed by someone with better vision than himself.
I have no hate for the royals. Trashing them just comes off as playing to ignorant stereotypes. They actually seem like decent people who are just fulfilling a historical role that the country has always had -- unlike Trump who's just an ill-motivated piece of shit.
Haha... They live in a country that had a tyrannical monarchy for dozens of generations where the delusion that God put them there with his divine will that separates them from the common man and to this day, their palaces and heritage still reminds them that we are your rulers, obey or die.
@@cece898 sadly my friend, God doesn't exist. He is only found within those who think themselves righteous in the spiritual path. Much like the kings and queens of olden monarchy
This wasn't any foreseeing or predicting the future. John's lived most of his life in the uk, he knows what kind of journalism they have there and how the royal family is
which is how that foresight manifests. he knows his shit so it becomes predictable. nothing mystical ofc, but it's easy to see how shit'll go when you're broadly aware of history &c
"You have to give him a chance, the second year really settles people down." "Bay of Pigs wasn't until the second year" LMAO. I'm so sad the audience didn't catch that lol these two are still fucking sharp
caguioaness yeah lol i found it funny but i dont think any of them have had that good of a education to be able to get that. But damn is that witty and amazing joke timing
They didn't cover that in any of the public schools I attended growing up in the 90's to early 2000's. Not sure if that's any indication. I only know about it because I'm a avid history reader.
I love John and Stephen together. I always imagine them being best friends in real life and hanging out all the time. Don't know if that's the case, but it would make sense. ^^
John Oliver has never sounded more condescendingly English than when he said: “That’s what Trump took away from his France trip. Their awesome military.”
At least they weren't talking about the Italian military. The great record in the 1930s of the only modern European army to be defeated by a bunch of blokes with spears. There Navy faired no better.
Not really that great, just a lot of words. He always goes to playing snarky arm-chair psychologist. Emotionally stunted, fundamentally flawed...I guess they sound ok in quick succession but do they represent any substantive truth? I think most of the people making comments on here are John Oliver fan girls and boys and just think trump + negative statement = funny. We are 2 years into these jokes and its all been said a thousand times. Very derivative.
Those sort of insults for our Royal Family are pretty commonplace here in the U.K., those of us who have no time for our resident parasites are more than happy to sling this sort of thing at them. This probably wasn’t a quick stab at them that he just came up with on the fly, as a social commentator he will have a store of these things for all sectors of society and prominent individuals, that’s his job. On a related matter, he is nearly right, they are a stunted bunch who are doing a job that’s not really a job, it’s a life I’m sure we’d all like a go at perhaps for a year or two then we’d hand over to the next lucky bastard who gets to inherit land, dodge tax, take money from the public purse and generally hoon about at the taxpayers expense.
Becky Craven remember remember the fifth of November the gunpowder treason and plot I know of no reason why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot
yes, I totally missed out on that super joke, if it was one!! can you throw some light on it?! I just felt so dumb at the end, I started hunting for some comments here - luckily you commented!!! tell me more :) tell US more!!!
Yeah you find that a lot of Brits who have a little success in US showbiz suddenly become quite anti-British. Just playing to the crowd and giving the US what it wants guess. Elton John was a classic example.
“Do you think that’s got my invitation back” I’ve watched this interview at least 5 times and that part kills me every time. It’s the look on his face right before he says it😂
The censoring is incredibly childish. John can say arse, but the "hole" section of that NOUN is beeped? Bloody silly. Also, yes: Royal Family: freaky weirdos, out of date etc.
The Queen should give him knighthood BECAUSE of this appearance. Just to spite him. I would pay to watch that ceremony. John Oliver is a British institution. Incredibly funny.
"It's not going to work." haha gotta love John Oliver's practical pessimism. He's so right about everything. I need him to explain all bad things in life to me in that British accent lol
@mizztotal: I used to think the bad things I have read about the British monarchy were not true or at least exaggerated, but after seeing the way Harry and Meghan have been treated, I can believe they, including Queen Elizabeth, are as bad as I have read. But, thinking about it, I was naive to doubt what I have read because THIS is an institution that has lasted for almost 1200 years, and you don't exist for THAT long by being NICE when you feel threatened as they probably feel now. God BLESS Harry, Meghan, and ADORABLE😍 Archie, and I hope and pray for their SAFETY and success in all their endeavors. Btw, John had it right! He does know his people, doesn't he?
@@elainesmith7512 not to mention ofc that they didn't merely survive: they took 1/3 of the world for their own. (yes it's a sequence of families, but every one of those were the most successful murdering bastards in range)
This was posted 4 years ago and John could not have been more right or clairvoyant, when he said there might be be some emotional issues upcoming when marrying into the royal family. And "stunted group of fundamentally flawed people" is just brilliant!!
I have to say, there are no highlights to this interview... This entire interview is a masterpiece! It is always a pleasure to watch these two talk to each other.
Last time John dared Trump to do something, it didn't work out so well. th-cam.com/video/HlHo-F1z_aw/w-d-xo.html Maybe he should just stop acting so high and mighty and humble himself a bit. Kiss the ring bitch

Narrator: She did not like it.

But one of them was decent. Harry stood by her.
@@jonathanbennett1411 And he stood by his Son which was kinda sad he had to ...
Duh...
Too much unrealistic optimism from her part...
John Oliver was remarkably prescient about the outcome of the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, wasn’t he? They didn’t get divorced...but they divorced themselves from the Royal Family.
His great great uncle (the Queen's uncle) did almost the EXACT same thing, except he also abandoned the throne to do it. Spent less than one year as king, married Wallis Simpson (American divorcée) the year after and moved to France after the war, both stayed there until their deaths.
At least Harry didn't abandon the throne.
Karrie Dee I see what you are implying about Meghan Markle-which is both uncalled-for and, depending upon the motivation, possibly racist. What I don’t get is your smearing of John Oliver’s wife; she’s a former US Army combat medic who served with the 1st Cavalry Division and was deployed overseas and just happened to meet Oliver by chance (before he had his own show, let alone US citizenship)-how exactly does that make her a “gold-digger?”

@@TheMijman True, but Edward was also a Nazi sympathizer. Probably for the best that he abdicated anyway.
It’s 2021 after the Oprah interview and boy did that comment about emotional damage age far too well.
same here
Well we all knew it was coming, I was not surprised. Kate just stuck through it and so did the others married into this family but go scratch the surface and you will see something different, I aam not convinced they are all so happy. Look at how skinny Kate became, anorexia is a form of emotional distress and to take control of yourseld. Harry and Meghan are just gutsy and brave to move away, this family is sick and needs help.
Lanna you are really beautiful
@@Holypm she really is
@@Holypm Ghanaian men always trying to shoot their shot😜😂
It's things like this that really lend credibility to everything Meghan said.
Meghan said some howlers though
1. Security isn't tied to titles
2. Archie would not be the first grandchild of a monarch not to be titled Prince/Princess (See Edward's Children)
3. Harry says his dad cut the off when in January he said he wanted financial independance on his website
4. Titles are governed by a monarch's letters' patent. A monarch has the right to change that at any time.(She seriously said 'Who are they to deny him his birthright?'!)
5. Archie is not currently eligible to be a prince.
6. Harry and Meghan published a website full of plans they hadn't negotiated with the Queen that then later had to be hashed out at Sandringham. Yet they say they didn't blindside her
7. Harry complains that being a Prince is to be trapped and Meghan complains their child isn't a Prince
8. Prince Charles has been actively trying to slim down the monarchy for decades, Archie isn't being made an example of
9. Meghan says her passport was taken as if she was held prisoner but then went on numerous foreign holidays
10. Meghan says they 'got married' three days before the church ceremony in their back yard. No marriage is legal without witnesses or taking place in a permanent structure like a church or a town hall
What is true is that these are human beings prone to human failings in a gilded cage where everything they say and do is scrutinised and their freedom is curtailed by the security Harry wanted to keep.
@JUSTIN KLUESNER EXACTLY!
@@04nbod okay. beach weddings are a thing though. And it's not a "permanent structure"
@@medealkemy Witnesses OR...
@@04nbod 1) meghan was told security is tied to the title. 2) we were told Edward and sophie chose not to have titles (did they?) 3) working towards financial independence and stepping back from their senior roles --> not abandoning all their duties. 4) I would be offended that the monarch would choose not to give the title, when it has been previously granted to the children unless the parents chose not to. If meghan had wrong idea about this I wonder why no one explained when the decision was made. she was left to believe that the rule was changed just then and there. and then the palace claimed harry and meghan did not want titles for archie which was false.
5. but he would be when charles became king and prince george, princess charlotte and prince lois weren't eligeble to become princes either.
6. i don't remember them putting up any website until late last year. they had a small statements and you have no knowledge what was talked with queen or charles." After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution," they said in a statement. "We intend to step back as 'senior' members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen."
7. harry does think he was trapped in Royal family, and meghan was rightly offended that her son was not to be treated the way that grandchildren of kings have been treated.
8. well they did bloody bad job of explaining it to harry and meghan and the punlic. Besides, the palace should have told to the public it was charles's choise not to give Archie titles, if they think that was nothing controversial about that. Now it looks it was just because archies mixed heritage
9. Her passport was handled by the palace workers who also deal with customs. No royal carries their passports or keyes. I can see how that made her feel furter like a prisoner.
10. she said they had a ceremony before the royal wedding "for just two of us". i thought it was obvious she didn't mean the legal sense married, but in emotional sense. I wonder why people made a fuss about it. people redo wedding vows multiple times, they have blessings etc. to me that seemed a sweet thing.
I love that you can hear John laugh off camera when Stephen says he's best known as the voice of Vanity Smurf
HOLY SHIT IM FUCKING CRYING IM SO HAPPY
Thanks for pointing that out, I'm a little hard of hearing, I would have missed it if you hadn't pointed it out!
OMG THANK YOU
Those two staring into the camera is priceless.
You've got to admire Oliver - he's fearless.
Mini van so how many kids have you convinced to get in your mini van? Lol
He's rich
not as fearless as Colbert. Roasting George W Bush at the White House Correspondents' Dinner while the president sat next to him. Now that's fearless
Fearless would include attacking some PC sacred cows.
firenze55 he’s got nothing to lose while he’s on hbo
Stephen - "I was told that meant something different in England."
John - "I'm the one who told you that and are you sure you want me to do that joke?"
LOLOLOL exactly
You could read the conversation they were having with their eyes word for word.
Who's here after watching Meghan and Harry interview with Oprah.
thought I was alone >>
John Oliver called it...people need to listen to him more.
Me
Prescient. 🎯
so prescient
Who is watching in 2020......see what is going on in the Royal Family.....
I'd LOVE to see J. Oliver's reaction to Harry and Meghan announcing they're stepping back from royalty!
Yup
Lancer1131 .....and Prince Andrew going after minors!
Lancer1131 yes it is!
mhm. yeah. yeah.
"He's an emotional vaccuum and he'll die that way"
"A lost father's love? Trying to fill a void with something tangible?"
Damn, that's brutal but probably pretty accurate.
Agree 100 %.
Sad, but likely true.
I bet trees hug you.
Hopefully
yes. John Oliver is the best
Yes and people say liberals are snowflakes lol
Everybody: here after Oprah
Me: over here thinking how creepy it is that the Royal Family not only learned nothing from Diana's death, BUT seems they just don't care either
How would they care if it might've been an inside job.
They did learn from Diana's death though. First of all, Harry was allowed to marry Meghan to begin with. A Commoner 30-something American Divorcee. Remember Diana was a 19 year old Virgin daughter of Earl Spencer. They thought Diana would get it because of her position in life and her youth would mean no one to come out the woodwork with salacious stories about her past.
I don't think the Royals are 100% to blame here. Harry himself said their relationship went very quickly. Meghan hadn't lived in England a year before the engagement. I think there was a clash between Meghan's expectations and reality
My favourite bit about all of this is Harry's basically "Y'all didn't learn, I'm out!" reaction to the whole thing.
No, people like this cannot grow to be better. They can only hurt others because of their dysfunctionality.
Also bear in mind that the royals were thought to have gone thru a "Strangers on a Train" (Hitchkock) moment where it was thought that Andrew Parker Bowles escaped being murdered as Diana was. Two widowed people being more eligible to remarry into the royal family than two divorced persons, mind you.
"He's an emotional vacuum and he'll die that way!" That John Oliver knows how to call a spade a spade!!!!!
what is a spade
"Spiritual vacuum' technically.
Has emotions like rage, but lacks humanitarian (or any other kind of) _compassion._
(which is an attitude formed by patterns of choices, rather than an emotion)
That one made me spill my coffee!
John Doe, same thing as a shovel, in that context.
STONEDEAD FOREVER, empathy and compassion are liberal myths.

Their chemistry is fucking awesome!
Ashmita Nandy I was going to say the exact same thing! I always love to see John Oliver and Colbert together, the resulting hilariousness is indeed more than the sum of all parts.
Donald Trump will be a two term President
There is not the slightest doubt in my mind about that.
Ever since they re-elected George W. Bush, we here in the Rest Of The World have known there is _nothing_ you can put past the Americans.
The chemistry feels lopsided, honestly, with the other man just sitting there and coming across as rather bland. Looking forward to February 15.
Ashmita Nandy Mmm. I was just thinking their chemistry wasnt that great on this one. Colbert and Jon Stewart, yes their chemistry really was fucking awesome.
John Oliver is a well informed, smart, know the history, know the culture of Britain and know exactly what he’s talking about! I love this guy! People always saying he predicted the life of Meghan but I disagree, he concluded base on facts. Royals don’t want change, the only thing that permanent in this world
The proud spawns of Jon Stewart, and the best in the game.
Got some good bait for your fishing there @GameOfEnder
Jon Stewart - the father of late night hosts and the man who made sarcastic comedy quips insanely excellent and the game changer
Charles Uwakwe
You forgot Samantha Bee & Trevor Noah.
Sam Bee honestly isn't as good as the rest. If I had to rank them, it'd be Oliver > Noah = Colbert > Bee
GameOfEnder 🤣🙄
John Oliver is my all time favorite. The way he just described the royal family felt like a huge slam but really, it’s just accurate. Which in turn, makes it hilarious.
Yeah this was almost Simpson level accuracy after watching Oprah's interview.
Yah..boundoux level accuracy
Definitely
Diana.
It's Diana 2.0
Homer or Jessica? 😏
Or South Park
This clip has to be in their documentary.
Seriously John Oliver like a wizard who can see the future,man he got this dead right..I remember watching this interview at that time I thought he was overreacting but boy he got that right
5:08 the truth kicks off.
Not really. Diana Spencer went through the same treatment. So unfortunately this was highly predictable.
IN the beginning he said "back to the future" lmfao
Not really, a lot of people have either run away or ended up dead marrying into that dysfunctional family
I thought something similar. I thought the press would be worse for her than the family itself... Wel, here we are.
John Oliver and Stephen are my dads in another universe.
If the many worlds theory is correct, technically they could both your dads in an infinite number of universes. Imagine... an infinite number of Gay John Olivers and Gay Stephen Colberts, as your dads infinitely.
this made my day and will probably be the highlight of my week. Thank you.
i think if you real dad sees that you are fucked

"They're an emotionally stunted group of fundamentally flawed people doing a very silly pseudo-job." LOL
I mean... technically speaking, he's not wrong.
Could have inserted inbred and privileged somewhere, but otherwise very accurate indeed.
how ironic coming from a dude who reads a script some other people wrote for a camera he doesnt operate in order to have the footage edited by people hes probably never met, while being directed by someone with better vision than himself.
Aman Uknow : So his job isn't real or is silly because TV shows require a crew?
I have no hate for the royals. Trashing them just comes off as playing to ignorant stereotypes. They actually seem like decent people who are just fulfilling a historical role that the country has always had -- unlike Trump who's just an ill-motivated piece of shit.
This aged like a bottle of 1959 Chateau Lafite Rothschild.

Ok...
He'll perjure himself before he finished his name. Lol that one floored me.
A Drumpf reference?
"It's just weird to kneel in front of another adult." EXACTLY. I don't get why monarchs still exist.
Haha... They live in a country that had a tyrannical monarchy for dozens of generations where the delusion that God put them there with his divine will that separates them from the common man and to this day, their palaces and heritage still reminds them that we are your rulers, obey or die.
@@cece898 sadly my friend, God doesn't exist. He is only found within those who think themselves righteous in the spiritual path. Much like the kings and queens of olden monarchy
this came up on my feed 8 hours after the Meagan and Harry interview.
Never mind how right he was about Meghan and the royals, the deadpan from both as John explained what "kissing the ring" means @7:17 was hilarious
This wasn't any foreseeing or predicting the future. John's lived most of his life in the uk, he knows what kind of journalism they have there and how the royal family is
which is how that foresight manifests. he knows his shit so it becomes predictable.
nothing mystical ofc, but it's easy to see how shit'll go when you're broadly aware of history &c
I would hail John Oliver for his almost prophetic words, but all us knew in our hearts that something of that sort was going to happen.
"You have to give him a chance, the second year really settles people down."
"Bay of Pigs wasn't until the second year"
LMAO. I'm so sad the audience didn't catch that lol these two are still fucking sharp
I’m Polish-Norwegian and during the Bay of Pigs my mother was a dream in my grandma’s head, but I got that :-D
caguioaness yeah lol i found it funny but i dont think any of them have had that good of a education to be able to get that. But damn is that witty and amazing joke timing
They didn't cover that in any of the public schools I attended growing up in the 90's to early 2000's. Not sure if that's any indication. I only know about it because I'm a avid history reader.
I did my schooling in the Uk - early 2000's - and even we did that extensively. I thought it was well known as the kennedy catastrophe.
That name isn't exactly incorrect either Gary/ I think we can give it a pass.
A big shoutout to Oliver for being so prescient to the point of being an eerily accurate psychic.
Gosh he hit the nail right in the head about the Meghan marriage. Emotionally stunted.
Are you from the Philippines or have relatives that live/lived there?
Looking back now, John Oliver was spot on his warning to Meghan Markle!
The kiss on the ring joke genuinely made me laugh out loud after a v long time.
Also his dry brit wit is amazing! This interview was brilliant!
And now Trump is going to ask Paul Ryan to kiss his asshole at the end of their meetings.
And Paul Ryan will swear on the fucking bible that he enjoyed it.
Ya think he doesn't ALREADY?? (Next up: The GOP Human Centipede...)
Watch how red Stephen gets in the face. Ha!
Lol watching colbert try and keep himself from laughing was funny as shit!!
The moment when Colbert is trying not to lose it at Oliver’s kiss the ring joke gets me every time I watch this
I love John and Stephen together. I always imagine them being best friends in real life and hanging out all the time. Don't know if that's the case, but it would make sense. ^^
RedVIII John and Seth too, also pure chemistry together.
Jon Stewart would cut a bitch if anyone was Stephen's best friend other than himself
I missed when they worked together I loved that show and was so funny
socrappyicoulddie He's still his favourite bitch ;-)
How accurate John Oliver's prediction was, almost two years ago! This is genius!
Even more so now....
John Oliver has never sounded more condescendingly English than when he said: “That’s what Trump took away from his France trip. Their awesome military.”
At least they weren't talking about the Italian military. The great record in the 1930s of the only modern European army to be defeated by a bunch of blokes with spears. There Navy faired no better.
Dang. I'm condescendingly British too, then.
I literally read your comment after he said that 🤣
@@richardbeeston1170 Dont forget Isandlwana 1879.
John was correct, though.
These "prophecies" said by Colbert and Oliver were 100% more accurate than the prophecies said by evangelicals.
Diana.
Open. A history. Book.
You people can't think for yourselves AT ALL, can ya?
"They're an emotionally stunted group of fundamentally flawed people doing a very silly pseudo-job" was quite the insult to invent on-the-fly. Kudos.
Not really that great, just a lot of words. He always goes to playing snarky arm-chair psychologist. Emotionally stunted, fundamentally flawed...I guess they sound ok in quick succession but do they represent any substantive truth? I think most of the people making comments on here are John Oliver fan girls and boys and just think trump + negative statement = funny. We are 2 years into these jokes and its all been said a thousand times. Very derivative.
@CalebBrianBooth - Uh, who in the fuck was talking about trump? This convo was about the royal family. YOU'RE A FUCKING MORON!!!
Pat Brodie no he's not. Don't insult people on my comment thx. I partially agree with him.
Those sort of insults for our Royal Family are pretty commonplace here in the U.K., those of us who have no time for our resident parasites are more than happy to sling this sort of thing at them. This probably wasn’t a quick stab at them that he just came up with on the fly, as a social commentator he will have a store of these things for all sectors of society and prominent individuals, that’s his job.
On a related matter, he is nearly right, they are a stunted bunch who are doing a job that’s not really a job, it’s a life I’m sure we’d all like a go at perhaps for a year or two then we’d hand over to the next lucky bastard who gets to inherit land, dodge tax, take money from the public purse and generally hoon about at the taxpayers expense.
Go on rumpster. Don't cry.
Also, poor John, the Guy Fawkes joke was amazing but no one had the right context for it!
Oh, well, if it's on TH-cam, it must be true. Holy crap, either stop trolling or get some psychological help.
Spammy Hell - No, no, no: utube. You know? It's the same place where they turn the frogs gay. Oh the horror.
forever
Who is "Steven"?
If you mean, Colbert; it's "Stephen".....which tells me the veracity, of the rest of your comment, has been left wanting. 🤔
Becky Craven remember remember the fifth of November the gunpowder treason and plot I know of no reason why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot
yes, I totally missed out on that super joke, if it was one!! can you throw some light on it?! I just felt so dumb at the end, I started hunting for some comments here - luckily you commented!!! tell me more :) tell US more!!!

"we had military parades across India" - John Oliver
Comedians are usually the most insightful and smartest people in the room.

Bloody silly.
Also, yes: Royal Family: freaky weirdos, out of date etc.
"Insolent little bastard, you're not coming here now, are you?" I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH: I LOVE JOHN OLIVER!!
I love how these two play off of each other. It's obvious they are good friends and they have a tremendous comedic chemistry.
Two things:
1) I love how this is from February 2018 and all of the comments are from last week
2) Everything John Oliver says ages so gracefully
The Queen should give him knighthood BECAUSE of this appearance. Just to spite him. I would pay to watch that ceremony. John Oliver is a British institution. Incredibly funny.
Yes Yes iT would be so funny, also have some unknown totally anonymous royal give it to him.
It would probably work too, because John is too polite/scared to say no.
@@definitelyhexed sorry that I'm responding to a 4 months old comment but as a Brit I can tell you that he's actually fairly well known here

How prophetic was that from 5.00, shes marrying into a family where she might not feel welcome, jan 2020 harry and Meghan are bailing out uncanny.
"It's not going to work." haha gotta love John Oliver's practical pessimism. He's so right about everything. I need him to explain all bad things in life to me in that British accent lol
@mizztotal: I used to think the bad things I have read about the British monarchy were not true or at least exaggerated, but after seeing the way Harry and Meghan have been treated, I can believe they, including Queen Elizabeth, are as bad as I have read. But, thinking about it, I was naive to doubt what I have read because THIS is an institution that has lasted for almost 1200 years, and you don't exist for THAT long by being NICE when you feel threatened as they probably feel now. God BLESS Harry, Meghan, and ADORABLE😍 Archie, and I hope and pray for their SAFETY and success in all their endeavors. Btw, John had it right! He does know his people, doesn't he?
@@elainesmith7512 not to mention ofc that they didn't merely survive: they took 1/3 of the world for their own. (yes it's a sequence of families, but every one of those were the most successful murdering bastards in range)

A valiant PUBLIC effort. Lol.
This was posted 4 years ago and John could not have been more right or clairvoyant, when he said there might be be some emotional issues upcoming when marrying into the royal family. And "stunted group of fundamentally flawed people" is just brilliant!!
I have to say, there are no highlights to this interview... This entire interview is a masterpiece! It is always a pleasure to watch these two talk to each other.
Someone needs to get all the late night talk show hosts in a room.😂🤣

I'm a big fan of his, so I've seen him be sharp and cutting before, but usually it's not as concentrated as it is here lol

Why would he humble himself again? Because it sounds like you're saying "John shouldn't be sharp and incisive because sometimes he overestimates the intelligence of Americans and assumes that they wouldn't go all in for a blithering moron"...
'Incurious' I have never heard that word before and it's a terrifyingly apt description of Trump
