No excessive profanity, no cheap political jokes or pandering, no gimmicks. Just a genuinely funny dude who could get a laugh out of anything. That’s how you know hes the real deal. RIP John. Wish I had seen you perform.
I love john Pinette. Saw him twice live. The first time I saw him he did a whole set then we gave him a standing ovation. Thus he came back out and said "What the hell else are you going to do in this town on a friday night?" And did 30 more minutes. Second time was two months before he passed. Such a hilarious and great comic. What a legend.
I went to Malden Catholic High School with John. He had us pissing our pants everyday. He was undoubtedly a natural. God rest your soul John. Gone way too early
I lived in Revere. Do you know where in Malden did John live? I think I remember seeing him walking near the Grover Manor Hospital on the Revere Malden line.
Plus to platforms like You Tube. I’m re-watching some old tv shows as well as rewatching comedy skits. Spouse and I get a kick from Ron White and his “I got thrown out of s bar” skit, John Pinnette - anything to do with eating at a buffet. Gabriel Iglesias and arriving to check in at motel late, etc. Bill Engvall taking his wife on weekend camping/hunting. There’s so much on these comedians and I prefer much to see the dvd rather than just the audio version too. Makes it so much better.
I love when sometimes when the audience was laughing, John would just smile. You could tell he truly enjoyed the laughter and joy he brought to his fans.
John was real and multi facited.... impressionist/ self depricating / excellent story telling / with a black belt in sarcasm John was truly a pioneer....
It’s crazy he’s still relevant so many years later. I found his comedy back in 2005. Sadly he died but a few days ago TH-cam recommended his videos. It was so nice to watch him again.
Im scrolling and he just changed my life ,I DIDNT CRY TODAY ,WHEREVER YOU ARE ,JOHN THANK YOU FOR THAT ITS BEEN 6 YEARS SINCE I LAUGHED FROM THE HEART ❤ IM SORRY I MISSED YOU IN LUFE ,I REALLY NEEDED YOU 😢IM SORRY YOURE GONE YOU MADE MY DAY ❤GID BLESS YOU .
You are loved Just survive the day. Eat yummy food, wear comfy clothes, take care of yourself. It gets better. You're worth the effort. For you. No one else.
The first time He played Thunder Bay it was on his birthday, & at the end of the show just before a cake was brought out I stood up & started screaming Happy Birthday To You (the looks i got from the people around me was hilarious) I was 3rd row left of center stage.. He looked over at me & smiled... and then his cake was wheeled out and the Stage crew & the rest of the audience started singing as well. That's my most favorite memory of him. He was honestly someone special.
My mother's favorite comedian! I have so many memories of my mother recounting Pinette's bits. Often she'd simply shriek "I SAID NAY NAY!" in a conversation. She's a very quiet and smooth-speaking woman, very opposed to cursing or insults. I think she really appreciated his ability to shriek and holler without being crude or upsetting. He never failed to put a smile on our faces.
I had the privilege to see him perform at the Aquarius Hotel & Casino in Reno, Nevada during the weekend of my 18th birthday in 2006. That show was my birthday present. I enjoyed myself enormously. R.I.P., John; you are missed by your fans, but you live on in the laughter you gave us.
I’d never heard of John Pinette until about 8 hours ago, it’s now 3.30 am in England, I’m now watching all his vids again , I haven’t belly laughed this much in a long time. I’m so glad I found you John Pinette, goodnight , sleep well , comedy has sorely lost a jewel in its crown xxx
Its 1 am here in the states. I discovered him earlier this week and am re watching all of his stuff. He was hilarious. So sad he left so early especially after all the hard work he did to get healthy
Miss you John... I can never enter a buffet without whispering " You be here four hour, you scare my wife!" under my breath when I walk through the door.
VERY nice person!! Went to see him in Atlanta. Knowing he loved food (and while restaurants can be awesome, there’s nothing like a home cooked meal) I took him a family specialty to the show and I was fortunate enough to hand it to him. The next time he came to Atlanta I went again and he remembered me…as the “meatball lady”. 😊 Made my night, to say the least! Miss your humor, big guy! Thanks for all the laughs!!
RIP JOHN 🙏. You will never be forgotten 🙏. If I'm having a crappie day I watch one of his videos. And now you are in heaven making the angels 😇 laugh their butts off. 🙏.
I love how all the comments are us saying how much he made us laugh and how much we wish he was still here. I'll never get sick of any of his material. Definitely my favorite
Exactly how I feel. I remember when he came on the scene. I just can't stop laughing. He was so natural and so talented. I can't think of anyone I liked more in comedy, even Robin Williams (also RIP.)
2020 and this man is what we need. A wonderfully funny human being that proved you don't need to mean to others to be funny. R.I.P. Mr. Pinette, you were taken too soon.
I’ll say! I miss his humour! I think he’d be sad that a lot of these buffets are closing. We’ve lost the Epic Buffet - inside the casino and another by the mall however that has just recently changed hands and is now an Asian Buffet place so I suppose he can do his “You been here 4 hour” skit. Spouse and I need to eat there sometime. I don’t suppose they serve beer?
@@Starborn3000 I'm torn about favorite because I have a couple or so that I really like, but yes sir, to him being a great actor and singer. I do approve your message, lol, lol.
@@vinyltapelover Agree. John, George Carlin, Red Skelton, Richard Pryor, Bill Hicks, Steve Wright, Mitch Hedberg and several others. He was one of a selected few...Dearly missed!

GOD BLESS COMEDIANS ESPECIALLY THOSE LIKE JOHN AND RITA ABLE TO LAUGH AT THEMSELVES AND TAKE US WITH THEM. God has truly blessed them and they’re willing to share. Laughter the great healer.
I just love this man. Simple quick-witted comedy. So many comedians use profanity, especially blacks, because they’re not funny at all. They just couldn’t find a job 😊
Love this guy. I grew up in this era of comedians. It was a day when there was no such thing as people getting offended. It was a better day to live in America 🇺🇸
Not to call ya out direct, but what a load of bs. People been offended by shit other say since we left the trees and said something. George Carlin had his 7 words, now they got different ones is all.
I saw John live 3 times and was physically ill each time I left from laughing so hard. My wife thinks I am crazy as she always hears him on my phone... I miss ya John!!!!
Jon Pinette died on April 5, 2014, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, at the age of 50. Pinette's personal doctor signed off on his cause of death as pulmonary embolism. Although some say it was wheat and anything that had gluten which was EVERYTHING even tho his blood work was GOOD and blood pressure was 112 over 70. He often snow skied with friends and was often seen flying into car parks having slid down waterpark slides shooting off the end high in the sky like Fwee Willy. Mostly he exercised regularly at Vegas buffets.
I absolutely love John's comedy routine! He had me laughing until I was in tears. RIP John, you were, and still are a beautiful light that brightens these sometimes dark days. You are missed.
My wife and I I saw JP back in the late 90’s at a convention. We were working on rather large steak dinners when he came out. Most of us could barely finish. It was truly side-splitting. He passed way too young. R. I. P.
When you go to buffets and stand in line, do you ever hear yourself thinking of the lines JP would be saying? Have you ever actually seen some people standing around possibly blocking the line from moving while they’re looking at the tables of food, then suddenly hear yourself saying, “Get Out Of The Way” 😁
God I LOVE John Pinette I never laughed so hard at a comedy show without any dirty stories in them. What a talent, its a shame he had to go so young. RIP John!
My one regret in life is I'll never get to see him in person. I've watched his comedy so many times and I still laugh out loud. I'll keep the love of food and comedy alive for you, John! Rest in peace
@@pauljordan4452 at the very least, we can be happy that he did what he loved and made others lives a little bit better by doing so, regardless of what killed him.
John Pinette moved right up the comedy ladder in Boston to headliner status in the 80s straight away, to the envy of open-mikers like me who did it for for years without getting a break. There was a distinct comedy hierarchy and most couldn't just walk into having a show like that. Louis C.K. was another fast riser there.
There is the odd one, but you're right he was never offensive. I discovered his shows after he passed away. I saw clips from Just for Laughs, but had no idea he had longer specials. This is great stuff. We lost another great one too soon.
He only cussed in one bit that I saw. But it was hilarious anyway. Especially in context of being a big boy. If you wanna hear it look up John Pinette meat recall!
Ekkaisara That's what so cool about him. Skelton had it, Flip had it and some others who I can remember. He and the others gave us joy and they were fulfilled by the joy of our laughter.
R.I.P. What a fantastic entertainer mimic and comedian,Just going away to have haggis and a scotch egg. Sadly missed. All the best to you and yours from Scotland. rab❤
God personally had to lift him up there cause there ain't an angel in heaven able to lift him up without laughing like a complete maniac, and even then God was probably making jokes with him
This is so important for me to say. .. John I adore you!! Losing my father 2 years ago and I have been taking care of my mom who has dementia. The last couple years have been really tough and getting worse because I have no help and I’m here seven days a week 24 hours a day . You came into my life again and now every morning with my coffee, I watch you.! You make me laugh and make me forget about my depression. God bless you ,I love you and you look fab. ❤ Never stop John , keep it up . Trust me, I’m not the only one who spirits you lift 🙏
I am so sorry for the unrelenting aspect of your life with poor Mom. Bless your heart. The cheer this man brings is so good. Who knows how long his blood pressure would've stayed good if he had just left well enough alone. This weight looked good. He looked sad and too thin before his passing.
God bless you. I went thru the same thing with my mother and every day I would do it again just to have her back. It was so hard and I do know what you're going thru. The hardest part is how hard it is for them. My Mom used to cry every time the phone rang because she couldn't remember how to answer it or hang up. It made me cry. I would explain it to her every time, some times as many as 6 times a day. And of course the grandkids and great grandkids don't think to visit after all they tell themselves she won't even remember if I was there or not. But they have times where they do remember and you feel their pain. And then they're gone. And you find all the presents for all the kids that never came, and you didn't even know they were there. Theyve been there a long time and the kids are all grown up now and all you can do is hold them , feel their pain and cry. The worse is my mom got really bad during the pandemic and no matter how I tried to explain it she just didn't understand why she couldn't go anywhere. She thought it just didn't want her to go anywhere. And to make it worse she lost her sight. She used to love to paint so she lost that too. God I miss her. I know it's hard but when they're gone and you no longer have them with you, it's even harder. When it gets bad just remind yourself how hard it is for them. Then give them a smile and a hug, and thank God for every minute you have left with them. ❤️❤️
I just wanted to say I had no help either. It was just me 24/7 7 days a week. I have 2 brothers but they never once helped unless it was to help themselves to her things, most times without even asking. They haven't spoken to me since she passed. Even had her take out a reverse. Mortgage they never repair just so they would take the house I've lived in for 50 years and helped her pay off so I'd be homeless. So besides having to leave my home it's just as hard to go thru her things. I miss her so much. I lost my dad in 89. So it's just me, my dog and my cat. Wonder if I can find a cardboard box big enough for the 3 of us 🤔
@@teresasimmons8215 wow I’m so sorry to hear this😢. Sounds so similar, with the exception, thank God that I have a friend taking care of my home. It’s one thing I knew not to do was sell my house because once something happens here I would be really screwed.. I’ll pray for you and your fur babies that you find a place to stay. 🙏🙏
Had the pleasure of meeting this fine man when he performed with Kathleen Madigan-what a sweetheart!! So, very missed. Watching his clips-til this day and no plans of stopping.
How is it possible that I am sixty two and just found out about him? No network tv shows? clean act had me rolling! and he's gone! not fair! life sucks!
Me too. I just discovered him about eight months ago and have watched every TH-cam video I could find. I have never laughed so hard. And I just watched the series finale of Seinfeld and lo and behold John was the person that the four of them refused to help in the final episode. I think he was hysterical and I wish he was still around to make more videos. So sad that he died young.
Have you been constantly researching comedians? Or do you look them up on TH-cam every six years or so? There are a lot of them out there, you know. And of course life is unfair. I hope you didn't come to that realization when you typed your message.
"Raviolis And A Nap!", "Raviolis And A Nap"! Haha that line never gets old from John Pinette, also the water slide story and the "GET OUT OF THE LINE!" RIP John.
His jokes are so relatable. Watch his shorts and vids many times now and still funny as heck! Nay-nay and Get out of the line! are my favorite saying from him now. His comedy is ageless! 😊😂😂😂
My favorite. Funny and never made fun at the expense of others... just a great funny person. I had the fortune of seeing him in person. He was hilarious and had the audience in tears.
Kevin Hart couldn’t lace his shoes. John Pinette was hilarious, seriously one of the most underrated comedians of all time, and a very talented man as well, was great on Broadway. RIP John Pinette.
No excessive profanity, no cheap political jokes or pandering, no gimmicks. Just a genuinely funny dude who could get a laugh out of anything. That’s how you know hes the real deal. RIP John. Wish I had seen you perform.
No gimmicks? You see the name of the show and the backgrounds, the intro?
mans is hitting him with the Symantecs lol

Oh crap, I had no idea he passed, we just found his vids😢 RIP🙏
Like Patrice he fronted up..thats more than most could manage..then they just do it ..!,Damm the..!
I miss him he was so funny. I could watch his stand up over and over. So sad that he is gone.
did he die/passed on
I went to Malden Catholic High School with John.
He had us pissing our pants everyday. He was undoubtedly a natural.

Plus to platforms like You Tube.
I’m re-watching some old tv shows as well as rewatching comedy skits. Spouse and I get a kick from Ron White and his “I got thrown out of s bar” skit,
John Pinnette - anything to do with eating at a buffet. Gabriel Iglesias and arriving to check in at motel late, etc. Bill Engvall taking his wife on weekend camping/hunting. There’s so much on these comedians and I prefer much to see the dvd rather than just the audio version too. Makes it so much better.
I hope you've gotten around to watching/listening to his other works. He really was a gem of the comedy world!
Check out Don Rickles and the friars club. You will open your world to the golden age of comedy.
Guy was so funny
I’m 52 years old and I’d never even heard this guy’s name until 2 days ago. Now I am questioning pretty much all of my life choices.
Great read. Made me laugh AND agree…thank you!! …totally get what you wrote😊👍

John died young. He is entertaining everyone in heaven now !!
He was a great man
I like the part where he broke character and had a mini-laughing fit doing his Brando impression.
He's got the best smile, he just lights up when he smiles. Love his comedy. RIP John.
Very cherubic and childlike.
@@paulleckner8235 Probably because he was mentally challenged and in a childlike state menally.
Love him to he w
as great!!
Im so sorry i missed him. Our world needs this kind of laughter.
John was real and multi facited.... impressionist/ self depricating / excellent story telling / with a black belt in sarcasm
John was truly a pioneer....
Don't forget a great singing voice!
Apparently he didn’t need to edgy either to be funny real wholesome don’t see it often in comedy
Truly multi talented.
Hopefully there are buffets in Heaven.
Enjoy Big Guy. We miss you.
Thanks for all the laughs. ❤
I Miss him terribly . This planet needs a John Pinette. 🤕😭
It’s crazy he’s still relevant so many years later. I found his comedy back in 2005. Sadly he died but a few days ago TH-cam recommended his videos. It was so nice to watch him again.
You know someone's funny when you've heard all the jokes before and you still laugh and smile. The best!!

God I LOVE John Pinette I never laughed so hard at a comedy show without any dirty stories in them. What a talent, its a shame he had to go so young. RIP John!
Breezy 1994 Me too. My sides hurt laughing so hard. Then.. I found out he passed away and I cried and laughed at the same time. I adored him
50 is not young. 50 is borrowed time .
Rare treat, no swearing.
@@bungiesnowflake what a bizarre thing to say. In this century dying at 50 is absolute dying young. My grandmother is 102.
His clips still makes me laugh. He had such a unique and really funny way at looking at things. I miss him.
John Pinette was born to do comedy. He is one of the all time greats.
Great observational comedy. Dairy Queen, McDonald's, Starbucks, etc...
I’m sure the angels carried him to heaven!
John Pinette must have them rolling in Heaven. He was hilarious, absolutely gifted.
No calories in heaven.
My one regret in life is I'll never get to see him in person. I've watched his comedy so many times and I still laugh out loud. I'll keep the love of food and comedy alive for you, John! Rest in peace
I love this man’s facial expressions.
This guy is comedic gold. He was the best there wasn't anything he couldn't do.
What a wonderful man. I wish that we never had to lose people like John. Rest In Paradise John.❤
It was obvious why the poor bastard died. He could have had a longer career. R.I.P.
@@pauljordan4452 at the very least, we can be happy that he did what he loved and made others lives a little bit better by doing so, regardless of what killed him.
He was hilarious it's too bad there weren't more comedians like him. For sure he was one of a kind though.
Mitch Hedberg was a one of a kind without all the cussing, politics, and filth. Why do the good ones need to go?
Ralphie May tried.
Where is this guy been my whole life
Wish he was still with us.
John Pinette moved right up the comedy ladder in Boston to headliner status in the 80s straight away, to the envy of open-mikers like me who did it for for years without getting a break. There was a distinct comedy hierarchy and most couldn't just walk into having a show like that. Louis C.K. was another fast riser there.
John Pinette is probably one the funniest man to ever live if not hes for sure a hall of famer
It's been 7 years and he still makes me laugh rip this legend
Man sucks that you passed away at such a young age, I just started watching your comedy in 2023 and I love your stuff, May you rest in peace
Comedians like John are a treasure
I loved this guy... He proved that cussing isnt necessary to be a great comedian.
agree agree agree.
He did cuss in his earlier version but I think he was testing out the market but I don't think he wanted to anyhow
There is the odd one, but you're right he was never offensive. I discovered his shows after he passed away. I saw clips from Just for Laughs, but had no idea he had longer specials. This is great stuff. We lost another great one too soon.
He only cussed in one bit that I saw. But it was hilarious anyway. Especially in context of being a big boy.
If you wanna hear it look up John Pinette meat recall!
Patricia Harold He has made light racist jokes but meh
I love the joy on his face when he listens to them laugh
Ekkaisara That's what so cool about him. Skelton had it, Flip had it and some others who I can remember. He and the others gave us joy and they were fulfilled by the joy of our laughter.
...he DID give us that moment to enjoy his act with him!!! BLESS HIIS HEART!!! 😁😊😎
his face @29:55💯🤣💀there should be stupid hiker law 😂
R.I.P. What a fantastic entertainer mimic and comedian,Just going away to have haggis and a scotch egg. Sadly missed. All the best to you and yours from Scotland. rab❤
He sends pictures to the mind and elevates the soul! A comic legend for all times!
He was soooo funny...
It doesn't matter how many times I watch him....i cry laughing.....they must be laughing in heaven
I've seen all the shows on youtube. I've watched them over and over. Never tire of them. He was amazing.
Abso-freakin-lutely!
God personally had to lift him up there cause there ain't an angel in heaven able to lift him up without laughing like a complete maniac, and even then God was probably making jokes with him
That was maybe the best Godfather imitation ever.
This is so important for me to say. ..
John I adore you!!
Losing my father 2 years ago and I have been taking care of my mom who has dementia. The last couple years have been really tough and getting worse because I have no help and I’m here seven days a week 24 hours a day .
You came into my life again and now every morning with my coffee, I watch you.! You make me laugh and make me forget about my depression.
God bless you ,I love you and you look fab. ❤
Never stop John , keep it up .
Trust me, I’m not the only one who spirits you lift 🙏
I am so sorry for the unrelenting aspect of your life with poor Mom. Bless your heart. The cheer this man brings is so good. Who knows how long his blood pressure would've stayed good if he had just left well enough alone. This weight looked good. He looked sad and too thin before his passing.
God bless you. I went thru the same thing with my mother and every day I would do it again just to have her back. It was so hard and I do know what you're going thru. The hardest part is how hard it is for them. My Mom used to cry every time the phone rang because she couldn't remember how to answer it or hang up. It made me cry. I would explain it to her every time, some times as many as 6 times a day. And of course the grandkids and great grandkids don't think to visit after all they tell themselves she won't even remember if I was there or not. But they have times where they do remember and you feel their pain. And then they're gone. And you find all the presents for all the kids that never came, and you didn't even know they were there. Theyve been there a long time and the kids are all grown up now and all you can do is hold them , feel their pain and cry. The worse is my mom got really bad during the pandemic and no matter how I tried to explain it she just didn't understand why she couldn't go anywhere. She thought it just didn't want her to go anywhere. And to make it worse she lost her sight. She used to love to paint so she lost that too. God I miss her. I know it's hard but when they're gone and you no longer have them with you, it's even harder. When it gets bad just remind yourself how hard it is for them. Then give them a smile and a hug, and thank God for every minute you have left with them. ❤️❤️
I just wanted to say I had no help either. It was just me 24/7 7 days a week. I have 2 brothers but they never once helped unless it was to help themselves to her things, most times without even asking. They haven't spoken to me since she passed. Even had her take out a reverse. Mortgage they never repair just so they would take the house I've lived in for 50 years and helped her pay off so I'd be homeless. So besides having to leave my home it's just as hard to go thru her things. I miss her so much. I lost my dad in 89. So it's just me, my dog and my cat. Wonder if I can find a cardboard box big enough for the 3 of us 🤔
@@teresasimmons8215 wow I’m so sorry to hear this😢. Sounds so similar, with the exception, thank God that I have a friend taking care of my home. It’s one thing I knew not to do was sell my house because once something happens here I would be really screwed..
I’ll pray for you and your fur babies that you find a place to stay. 🙏🙏
@@jewlz1960 Thank you. That's very kind of you. I know we all have our own trials right now. Your prayers on our behalf are greatly appreciated.❤️❤️
Had the pleasure of meeting this fine man when he performed with Kathleen Madigan-what a sweetheart!! So, very missed. Watching his clips-til this day and no plans of stopping.
The world need more of this guy. The world might be a better place to live for all of us.
Its rare form to get an audience of people to laugh and applaud with facial expressions alone. I miss this guy. :(
How is it possible that I am sixty two and just found out about him? No network tv shows? clean act had me rolling! and he's gone! not fair! life sucks!
gone way to soon = sad
Me too. I just discovered him about eight months ago and have watched every TH-cam video I could find. I have never laughed so hard. And I just watched the series finale of Seinfeld and lo and behold John was the person that the four of them refused to help in the final episode. I think he was hysterical and I wish he was still around to make more videos. So sad that he died young.
You have to see his other stand-ups. But you can't find everything like last time. "I'm Starving" -> This one is the best of all. Trust me.
Have you been constantly researching comedians? Or do you look them up on TH-cam every six years or so? There are a lot of them out there, you know. And of course life is unfair. I hope you didn't come to that realization when you typed your message.
I've seen many of his videos multiple times and still laugh every time. It's very sad he's gone, but he left us a great legacy of laughter.
I can watch him over and over. Shame he passed so young.R.I.P. JOHN.
best godfather impersonation. I love watching these videos. He was, is and always will be a legend.
😮😅.
Yes he will be. Wonderful talent gone soon .
One of the greatest losses to the comedic world when this man died.
RIP John Pinette.
"Raviolis And A Nap!", "Raviolis And A Nap"! Haha that line never gets old from John Pinette, also the water slide story and the "GET OUT OF THE LINE!" RIP John.
Same here.😄
His jokes are so relatable. Watch his shorts and vids many times now and still funny as heck! Nay-nay and Get out of the line! are my favorite saying from him now. His comedy is ageless! 😊😂😂😂
I came across his TH-cam shorts,had to get his full show.Very funny guy.
😂😂😂😂 me too.. and im glad i did...
"Life is precious, and we have to make the most of it. And I don't have time for useless things."
excellent quote. RIP
Lynohue😮😢
My favorite. Funny and never made fun at the expense of others... just a great funny person. I had the fortune of seeing him in person. He was hilarious and had the audience in tears.
I like the Chinese buffet
You are lucky
One of the things I love about him - he was funny without cruelty.
Except the Amish.
Get OUTTA THE LINE!
The Jackie Gleason of our times ! That’s the best comedy in a long time I laughed so hard it was killing me! JOHN PINETTE!
Kevin Hart couldn’t lace his shoes. John Pinette was hilarious, seriously one of the most underrated comedians of all time, and a very talented man as well, was great on Broadway. RIP John Pinette.
