An American treasure...Jeff Daniels. We need more brave men like him leading the way.
It would be so cool to have dinner with him and hear his stories. Truly a good man with an amazing outlook
He is such a good example of how one can stay youthful even as an older adult.
Jeff Daniels is just the coolest person.
Awwww, interview wasn’t long enough. Love Jeff!!!!
That's always the problem with some stars ... the time runs out far too quickly.
Me too
Of the many things I love about Stephen...
When Jeff shared his Eastwood story, Stephen didn't interrupt him once.
You don't interrupt a man sharing an Eastwood story.
Stephen is the best late night interviewer, followed by Seth Meyers. Others are comics always trying to do a bit and mug for the audience terrified of having an actual moment on their show.
No need to interrupt, Jeff is a natural raconteur and Stephen could see that.
You mean he doesn't maniacally fake-laugh and pound the desk making every moment about himself?
(Pssst! *What manner of sorcery is this?!* Just asking for my friend, JP.)
Yes! This is where Oprah went off the rails. I can't, nor do I want to watch her interview anyone, because it's all about her, what she thinks, what she thinks YOU should think, dropping what she thinks is wisdom, blah, blah blah..she's insufferable. LOVE COLBERT
What a truly decent person! we need more of this man.
Jeff Daniels ❤️
I wanna see Jeff and Jim reunite for a satirical play on Grumpy old Men called ‘Grumpy and Grumpier’
yaaaasssss!
I don't know why but every time I watch Jeff gets interview he always brings a smile to my face 😊
He is totally America's sweetheart.
Why is it Jeff Daniels just reminded me of a better time. This interview is what late night talk shows used to be like. Kinda like with Carson.
Not really, the last time I saw sincere spontaneous interviews was on "You Bet Your Life" with Groucho Marx.
He is what republicans use to be....until we got the horse paste eaters....
I don't see it like: "It was a better time back then"
I see it as: "Love when we used to be adventurous about stuff in life." He was (still is, but now it's different) serious actor back then, and went full in slapstick comedy with Jim Carrey and came out of it without being typecast.
Dude took a risk andb it paid off. Back then it was more likely to do it and have the same results, but today it's more difficult.
Lovely to hear those amazing stories.what a life!🙏
Jeff daniel's greatest was The Newsroom. That was a great show and could have gone forever.
Yup. Seriously. That speech about how American is not the greatest country in the world 👌
@@Holdmy2nuts love your handle
Too intelligent and witty for modern audiences.
Really prescient and timely show. Especially calling the Tea Party/ extreme right “the American Taliban”. I thought about that line a lot on January 6. They were able to do what Bin Laden and the Taliban failed to do and what the brave Americans on United 93 gave their lives to prevent.
I’m watching the West Wing for the first time rn, and I think the Newsroom is even better.
@@richardparadox163 both shows display in different ways how the US could be, and maybe should be. Often wrong, with politics we may not always agree with, but on both sides more honourable than dishonourable people.
Those who go on and on about how great MacLaine, Winger, and Nicholson were in Terms of Endearment should rewatch it so that they can include Jeff Daniels in that list. As in that movie, he has flown just slightly under the radar all these years because he is a master of acting without acting. It's odd that he's best known for Dumb and Dumber. But it probably paid the bills, allowed him to be choosy, and gave us all the great work he's done since then.
Jeff Daniels has been at the top of my list for picking movies. "Good enough for Woodie..." Same thing for me: I see his name, I watch the movie. I can't believe he experienced it in such a overwhelmingly low key way while a dude across the pond (me) knows and loves his work and adores him for who he is and what he brings to the table: a raw reality, believable characters, depth and range which are jaw dropping. So glad he caught up with what most of us, I'm sure that means the rest of the world, already knew!!
Dumb and Dumber was an eye opener for me to his range, so that was a golden bet of him. I can't remember when I recognized him for the first time from watching another movie, and from it knowing I struck acting gold. Always at the lookout for great actors able to take me along on a story line was and is almost literally like finding that one collectors item baseball card. With Jeff Daniels, ironically, it was the Lookout. Later when I heard of Newsroom, a combined effort of both him and Aaron Sorkin, it made me jump for joy. Two story tellers whose tone I love so much, working together.
Anyway, don't know. Maybe there is a bunch of actors who favor character roles and opt out of the bigger budget summer box offices. But most movie buffs I know, fall deeply in love with the same range of actors for the same reason: acting chops. Another actor to illustrate my point: William H Macy.
Just give me more of those and less CGI and I'm good.
Love the way you put these thoughts!
So nice when the guests are allowed to talk without interruption!
One of the many reasons why I love Jeff Daniels is that he is a critically acclaimed actor with a very respectable career and yet he still shows love for Dumb and Dumber and Jim Carrey. Such a GoAT
He’s so sincere and chill
My favorite actor is so because of who he is, not because of his acting. Jeff Daniels. There's one guy you'll never find swindling people or abusing family or friends.
Everytime I watched Jeff Daniels,in movies I just didn't want anything bad happen to him!! He always looked a helpless(just wanted a hug) yet, his good actor with empathetic heart! Simply love him👍❣️💙🥰
It’s because he’s a Pisces lol
Love Jeff Daniels, you too Stephen of course, I love that you let the light shine on others, laughing with them, listening carefully but not trying to make it about you-
Jeff Daniels is the hero America deserves and one it needs right now! Newroom was the best show ever televised! sand Dumb and Dumber is my all time favorite. What a good and talented dude
What a great guy.
Jeff can never escape that scene lol
Such a fulfilled happy man. Hope I'm as happy as he at that age.
Become a stoic. Tell yourself that you are happy with what you have, and you will be. Be content knowing you'd envy yourself if you had just a little less than you do now. Life is what you make it, so make it a happy one✌💚🖖
@@martingoldfire Wow, beautifully said!
@@WesleyThibodeau Thank you! But I give the credit to the giants of stoicism, like Marcus Aurelius, with just a smidge of myself added😊
@@martingoldfire the part about envying yourself if you had just a little bit less, that gave me a good old shake, thanks man.
@@martingoldfire Have your wife die and lose your job at the end of your career and then tell yourself that. I'm trying real hard but it's not the way I wanted it to work out and all alone. It's hard not to think it should have been me every day.
Jeff Daniels is a joy.
Went to Mockingbird back door and he signed my program and looked me in the eye and I swear, looked into my soul. It was wild. Great show.
He's a cool cat. Would like to read his memoirs.
Awe, I love both of the guys! All smiles, all day
I love listening to Jeff Daniels...he has such depth (vs. what we know him from Dumb and Dumber)
I love Jeff Daniels!!!!!!
Because I grew up watching Dumb and Dumber, I am, unfortunately, always shocked when Jeff turns out to be so eloquent and thoughtful.
Love him.
So THAT'S how Dirty Harry got his nickname!💩😂
I liked this comment when it only had 28 likes. I'll remember that when the number has a K next to it.
Bring back the news room!
Jeff makes me proud to be a Michigander. Smart guy, a good person
Agreed. Greetings from Mid Mich!
And he stayed in Michigan. Never moved to Malibu...
@@alterego6075 midmich here also!
Jeff "Thank you" your views are forever lasting. Your acting goes without question. Thanks for being real.
That's a mouth full from Clint Eastwood, it says everything about him. My favorite was " Newsroom."
Jeff is a wise thinkfull guy.
Good for you Jeff for not pausing for the hysterical screams and just go on with your story.
JD's range is huge. Gotta catch up on more of his work. A great guest 👏
Great guy 👏
Man he's awesome!
Escanaba in the Moonlight will always be near to my heart
Escanaba in DA moonlight
Jeff Daniels always has been an undiscovered star to me. Again, too short an interview!
We love you JD, you gave great performance in Gettysburg , but yes, swell as hell in Dumb and Dumber.
Jeff is an American treasure
My favorite: the purple rose of Cairo!!!
Love him. Decent man. Great actor.
decent man, decent actor
Of all the Jeff's shows. I love newsroom the most ♥ then dumb and dumber
Jeff Daniels is an insping man. Humble, simple, down to Earth and imensely talented
Toilette Scene.. most people wont admit it, but is so freaking relatable with every single one of us XD XD XD
Thinking of Clint Eastwood laughing hysterically to watching that scene is a wholesome thought.
You are truly Amazing Jeff, and so is Stephen. I admire the sizes of your hearts, putting them on display whenever you open your mouths. I do that too, but I sing. Usually people don't try to prevent tones from coming into their ears
Jd is such a great actor. Good for him. Love listening to him talk.
That was a great story. Love hearing about his career trajectory and that he's not afraid to invoke Woody Allen's name.
Woody Allen wasn't a known pedo back then.
One of my favourite movies as well with Mr Daniels is Arachnophobia 😊🕷
Jeff Daniel's tells a great story.
When did the apostrophe creep into his name? Are people just automatically putting apostrophes in front of "s"? Have the keyboards been redesigned to do this for us?
The man is soooo good actor that I couldn't believe that the guy in news room as the same as the guy in dumb and dumber.
Love Jeff Daniels
What a great interview, what a great guest. I love those kind of great stories.....
Such a nice couple of stories and what a great interview by the iceman Colbert!
Thank you !!!
Jeff Daniels, the best if the best.
May I recommend everyone who likes Jeff Daniels watch his best ever performance. It was a small film called "Escanaba in da Moonlight." Mr. Daniels has many fine performances on his CV! But that one is my favorite. Pure Daniels. Pure Michigan.
Can’t e en remember what year it was, but saw the play version, with Jeff Daniels, in Michigan. Laughed so much almost fell out of the seat.
@@gypzs9 Ah yes. The Purple Rose Theater. I've never been. That must have been quite the enjoyable experience!

Clint Eastwood was one of the nicest customers I ever had. Did some work on his Carmel ranch many years ago
JD is so comfortable in his own skin. Amazing man.
I love you Jeff Daniels!
Great stories from a great actor
Jeff's awesome, good vibes man ✌🏾
"Escanaba In Da Moonlight"
Thank you, Jeff Daniels !
Imagining Clint Eastwood watching Dumb and Dumber...
I love the cheers for Michigan!
I'll watch a movie, not knowing what it is or what it's about, just because he's in it.
He’s so underrated
if ever there was an Actor/Celebrity that should pursue high office it is Jeff Daniels..
I really didn't need to know that about Clint.
I just can't picture it.... Just as well.
Clint Eastwood is my idol 😎💕
Same here my whole life. Total hero
Darn! I wanted to hear about his newest role in Dune. Great actor tho 💜
That was 2 decades ago.
@@sandbridgekid4121 and it was William Hurt, not Jeff Daniels
Its a joke. People think Daniels is Hurt constantly. Hurt has signed as Daniels in hotels.
It was a pretty minor role for him probably but he was so great in that Steve Jobs biopic that starred Fassbender in the title role. Daniels got the really great role of John Sculley, the former Pepsi CEO who eventually tried to push Jobs out. He stole every single scene. I’m sure part of it was how great he’d gotten at Aaron Sorkin dialogue from years of doing The Newsroom, but man was he great.
I thought he was so handsome in Gettysburg at 11 years old. What a underrated gem!!
I really respect him for completely ignoring the cretinous outbursts from the audience. They are unbelievably irritating..
Bruh I was there, we were forced to laugh
Love Jeff Daniels and guess what he is a great actor and I loved him in dumb and dumber and RV with robin Williams rest in peace another great actor that we lost.
🧡
I miss the good old days.. 🤍
You know, I always wonder why in the hell some people choose to “thumbs down” a particular TH-cam video….. “Why in the hell did 5 people ‘thumbs down’ this particular video?!?? I don’t know, but they’re probably right-winged, and they probably hate America AND Jeff Daniels, AND Stephen Colbert. They most likely saw the last interview segment, and they automatically ‘thumbs downed’ him on principle, without listening to what he had to say here.” Anyway, I’m not sure why people would even CONSIDER giving a thumbs down on this particular video. Maybe they didn’t like “Dumb and Dumber”, or maybe they just suck at life, and they’re jealous of Jeff Daniels’s success. I don’t know, but it is silly to me that ANYONE would give this particular interview a thumbs down….. maybe they hate black people, and they clicked on after the last segmented interview in order to thumbs down him without even watching it…. There are SOOO many haters coming from the right that they can’t even SEE the light of day from behind the conspiracy bullshit smoke screen from which they CHOOSE to view the entire world. It’s only 5 people, as of the morning of 9/14/2021, when I happened to click on this video, but dude….. it’s Jeff Daniels, and he’s talented AS FUCK, why in the hell would you want to thumbs down this PARTICULAR video?!?? People suck…..
If it hadn't been for those "thumbs down", you wouldn't have written this wonderful diatribe.
😎
This was better than I thought it was going to be.
Well.. even a guy who talks to chairs can make a good call once in a while, I guess.
I love Purple Rose of Cairo
What an interesting man he is. I too watched Dumb and Dumber and loved it...even without having personally experienced anything like the toilet scene.
Talking about systemic racism and then reliving Glory Days with Clint Eastwood is peak white. But I appreciate this man for educating himself! I really really loved hearing his hopefulness. I feel like a lot of folks he will reach could find the same solace and hope for a real post-racial society. These are people who can actually do something about it, and I'm so grateful that there are folks like him doing this work. Because I don't have it.
Thank you - awesome take!
clint as long as you don't talk to empty chairs i love you.....
I like Jeff Daniels. Talented as hell, but not an ounce of pretense to him.
Classic movies…
Jeff Daniels is on my Laminated List.
Hasn't that happened to all of us?😂
Love this guy! Michigan's pride!
I lived 16 years in Asia. The toilet scene happened to me too.
Fire Up, Chips!
Such a daddy
I had such a tremendous respect for Clint until that talking to the 'chair' scene. I can't even bear watching his movies now.
Tough luck.
he's a cranky old grandpa in real life. in the movies he's shooting nooses, being a badass to thugs, etc...
What movie is that in?
Same here. He lost alot of respect for that stunt.
He had a senior 5 minutes.
Is it just me, or do any other 'old guys'(like me) wish they had Jeff's hair?
It'd be great to see Jim Carrey or Bill Hader doing an impression of Clint Eastwood on the toilet after the turbo-lax kicks in: "A man's . . . got . . . to know . . . his . . . limitationsss!" >FARTS ENSUE
