That's like saying Marlon Brando was humble because he thought the Godfather was bad and didn't even learn his lines. He read them from a board. Or Zwarzenegger is humble because be thought Terminator was a ridiculous movie. It has nothing to do with being humble.
Tbh I kinda felt bad for all the other actors and the show’s creators/directors when he was talking about how terrible he thought it was. It’s a bit self-obsessed to imagine that the success of the show would ride on your performance, especially when you had an established actress like Winona Ryder in the cast and all those bloody amazing kids.
Underrated, he’s been part of one of the biggest shows and been cast in Black Widow. I mean Marvel is so huge and he’s now a part of it?? He’s not going anywhere
*respect* David - *respect* - never easy talking about mental illness - thank you for speaking and writing about this - helps all of us, and is gratefully appreciated.
Maybe if it fails there were no expectations or marketing costs wasted and not really a spotlight on the show or those participating in it. EA sports did something similar with the free game Apex legends.
I've seen him and other cast members in interviews, and I think this account was a bit exaggerated. In reality, the cast, crew, writers, and Netflix execs were excited about Stranger Things. When Netflix greenlighted the project, they told the Duffer brothers that they weren't going to advertise it at all, but that didn't mean that they didn't believe in it. The cast really put their hearts into it, and liked what they had accomplished, but they were uncertain how successful the show would be. I think that the fact that this show was such a phenomenal hit with zero advertising is a testimony as to how good it truly is.
I didnt even hear about the show till the day before it released on Netflix. I didnt plan on watching till everyone and their brother was talking about how good it was.
My son kept telling me to watch the series and would tell him I dont like kiddie shows. About a week ago i started watching it. I didn't stop untill i was done. Left me wanting more.
Chief Hopper is like an angrier version of Indiana Jones. Neither had any idea of what they were doing. No idea if what they were doing would work... but they were gonna DO IT ANYWAY. Love it. Great show. If you haven't watched it you really should give it a try.
Working with people who have mental illness, I love his ending sentence about it not being a death sentence. So many of the guys I work with think it’s the end of their lives once they’re diagnosed. But it’s not, they can still be amazing and hard working people. Thank you David Harbour for this inspiring message!!!
I don't know much about David Harbor, but, damn, he's a great guest to interview!! He had me laughing the whole time. And, Stephen seemed to be seriously enjoying himself too. Gotta love ppl who know how to laugh at themselves & tell a good tale. ... even if he's only 25% as sexy as Idris Elba. 😂
Thank you David Harbour for bringing comedy, truth and having the courage to talk about the reality of many people's live.. Looking forward to the book 💞
Stephen is so excited about the boat trip, that's really cute! And kudos to David Harbour being so open about his mental health, he seems like such a lovely person.
And then they killed OA before it even really got off the ground. They had 5 years worth of story to tell, and Netflix is like, "Not enough interest." Well, you could try promoting it. And hire someone to write the synopses who doesn't make every show sound like the dumbest thing ever.
Im literally here purely to Thank David Harbour for those last words in his interview, i doubt i am the only one, but he made me realise i actually needed to hear those words! Looking forward to your book.
"You can be successful, have a large cultural voice, you can do a lot in this world" - fuck yes, thank you David. Despite 'knowing better', I still slip into the thought pattern that tells me that because of my mental illness I'm always going to be trailing behind other people I admire, or trailing behind where I want to be. But hearing people I admire and am inspired by talk openly about their own challenges in this way breaks down those stigmas and allows others to see another future, and I can't express my appreciation for that.
I knew I liked this guy...then he started talking about repping for the dad bods...then he said he got diagnosed with being bipolar and learned how to manage it...I'm officially a fan of this guy now lol
Whai a second...Colbert gave him some extra time already and let him finish his sentence before going to commercials. It's a late night show, you have commercial time slots you can't skip or avoid :) (I'll buy his book though because, as much as you do, I want to know more about it)
In all the time since Stranger Things started, I haven't watched many interviews with the cast at all. I think this is almost certainly my first time watching him be interviewed, and I'm struck by how much he seems like he's a really cool dude
David Harbour mentioned during an interview that the Duffer Brothers had shown him Hoppers character arc over 4 to 5 seasons, I think it was one of the couple he did with David Pollak which are available on youtube.
David Harbour helps Greenpeace... and he's speaking out against the stigmas of mental illness. I didn't think I could like him any more than I already did, but I was wrong.
Hopper is one of the best characters on the show. Thank you for Chief Jim Hopper, David Harbour! Also, that Antarctica boat story had me in tears. Hilarious! And a big NOPE NOT FOR ME vibe as well.
This just made me adore him to the fullest; especially talking about his Bi-polar struggles and he knows how much that’ll help so many young people and up in age! Surprised neither took the opportunity to compare the leopard sea mammal to being a stranger thing when he said it was like a slug…😂😂😂
“It just slithers up like a giant yellow sea slug with a leopard face And proceeds to look at us And vomit out two almost perfectly intact penguin skeletons all over the beach And then I swear it smiled And then it went back in the ocean” 😂😂😂😂😂
I just love love LOVE both of these men so much. Harbour is so much more talented than I think he will ever realise. God bless him for talking about his illness. Can't wait for ST4!! #eggosforever
Things like his trip through the stormy passage are challenging at the time but make for great stories for the rest of your life. I have great travel stories about things that were very challenging to get through.
This guy is freaking great. If anyone wants to laugh and listen to a deep conversation they should watch the David Harbour WTF podcast with Marc Maron. I have listened to it multiple times because it had me crying it was so funny.

Nicole Grace :c the dark side of BP is.. well, dark. i usually like to read about people’s experiences with their mental health but that one sounds a little too heavy metal for me, at least right now.
J Baldwin i’m going to say it’s because kanye isn’t a part of nerd culture 😇 also because i don’t like when people use bp as an excuse for shitty behavior, there’s that too. oop.
Hey I did that trip on an icebreaker too! The swells actually rocked me to sleep every night so guess success depends on your 'sea legs'. Side note: penguin colonies really stink--you can smell them from 20+ miles away.
I don’t think he’s dead because in season one they pretended el was dead but she wasn’t, also I don’t think they would kill such an important character
I'd have to watch it again, but I sweaaaar that he got sucked into the crack between worlds right before it closed and they just made it seem he was dead lol
Respect to David Harbour for getting the "A Place Further than the Universe" experience. (And I fully realize that maybe five people will get that reference, tops)
Hopper is the exact kind of strong , caring , protective, and funny guy .. all women want. He makes you feel save, but isn’t arrogant in thinking he right all the time.
Love David Harbour👍🏼 Watch his mockumentary on Netflix- awesome. And his apartment tour on TH-cam is worthwhile if appreciate beautifully vaulted bathroom ceilings🙃
He was so casual and upfront about his Bipolar diagnosis. Kudos. These are scary labels for treatable illnesses. Good on him for helping break through stigma.
![บุษบา - เมนทอล [Official MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/IGnWPokSEis/mqdefault.jpg)
He is so modest thinking he would tank the show.
He was the highlight of it, especially last season - he was simply great.
Absolutely my favorite character!
That's like saying Marlon Brando was humble because he thought the Godfather was bad and didn't even learn his lines. He read them from a board.
Or Zwarzenegger is humble because be thought Terminator was a ridiculous movie.
It has nothing to do with being humble.

He was the only good part of the third season.
Yeh he made the show in the first season. Joe Keery in the second.
He's the perfect mix between goofy & chill, I love him!
sexy is not just the appearance, this guy is adorable at all levels
🙌🏼
looks like an idiot to me, what is with the air cut ?
Phenomenal actor. My daughter informed me that when the paparazzi are mean to the stranger things kids he stands up for them. Class act
Very underrated actor... I can see him playing in any apocalyptic scenario. One of my favorite genres and actor.
Will A he’s becoming more popular
Underrated, he’s been part of one of the biggest shows and been cast in Black Widow. I mean Marvel is so huge and he’s now a part of it?? He’s not going anywhere
@@MKMK11114 As Black Widow's Father...
There can only be 1 Will with a letter let’s battle !
He’d be a good Joel Miller (Last of us)
*respect* David - *respect* - never easy talking about mental illness - thank you for speaking and writing about this - helps all of us, and is gratefully appreciated.
I just want to hug this man 😭❤️ he just seems like a biggest puppy dog with the most down to earth attitude!
This man is the type of guy that has gone through a lot but kept on going and made it out. What an inspiration.
I find him very attractive.
He is! He's hot. Not necessarily in a mainstream way but he has a special charisma. Plus he's brain is sexy. He's very smart!
Yep and I Hate cigarettes yet - he does something for me.
VERY VERY VERY VERY M. U. C. H.
Me as well
He's EXTREMELY attractive. You need more upvotes, my friend.
For him to say that he thought he was going to be the reason stranger things would tank is just crazy. He basically carried season 3 on his own
It blows my mind that the cast and Netflix themselves thought Stranger Things was gonna tank. I'd love to know more about the thought process there.
It would be a good Netflix bit lol
Maybe if it fails there were no expectations or marketing costs wasted and not really a spotlight on the show or those participating in it. EA sports did something similar with the free game Apex legends.
WB thought Joker would tank and that made 1 billion

Same with my daughter she kept telling me to watch it and finally I did. I watched all four seasons in one week lol
Same here!
Haha definitely not a kiddie show
assuming makes...
Ahahahahaa same here. This last season made me fall in love with the show
Wow he is so open about his mental health, it will be an interesting book
Chief Hopper is like an angrier version of Indiana Jones. Neither had any idea of what they were doing. No idea if what they were doing would work... but they were gonna DO IT ANYWAY.
Love it. Great show. If you haven't watched it you really should give it a try.
Best comment. If they ever made remakes, it'd have to be David Harbour.

But it’s not, they can still be amazing and hard working people. Thank you David Harbour for this inspiring message!!!
I really like this guy. Seems very genuine
I made this platform to reach to real fans like you to appreciate your effort and to show how I do love you all ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He's a working actor who appreciates his success and knows that these peaks in his career are lightning in a bottle moments.
I was hooked on the show in the first 5 minutes, had to binge the entire thing in one night. And now after season 4 - still my fav show ever
same!! took me years to watch it after trying quickly and failing season one and now i can not wait for season 5!
You watched one season in one night or all?!!!
Hes already speaking with russian accent , thats a good sign.
I don’t see it
Apple Fanboy well yeah you don’t see accents
Laroiidz Art I didn’t mean it like “see” but if it makes you happy I don’t “hear” it
Could be black widow
Hint season 4
I don't know much about David Harbor, but, damn, he's a great guest to interview!! He had me laughing the whole time. And, Stephen seemed to be seriously enjoying himself too. Gotta love ppl who know how to laugh at themselves & tell a good tale.
... even if he's only 25% as sexy as Idris Elba. 😂
What do you mean "only?!" That's still S-class sexy
@@mathdemigod8162 just repeating Colbert's cheeky response. 😉
You might not know much about David Harbour, but as his name is in the video’s title you should at least be able to spell it correctly! 😜
@@clothilde1623 Agreed. 😉 I realized I misspelled his name after the fact. Oops.
wow he's veeery careful not to spoil anything here😂
Da!
He’s such a pro at avoiding those ST4 questions 😂😂😂

Thank you David Harbour for bringing comedy, truth and having the courage to talk about the reality of many people's live.. Looking forward to the book 💞
I made this platform to reach to real fans like you to appreciate your effort and to show how I do love you all ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I mean everything with Winona Ryder as a main character would be a hit, you gotta know better.
@OriginalYithian I did, and that's an epic movie too.
Stephen is so excited about the boat trip, that's really cute!
And kudos to David Harbour being so open about his mental health, he seems like such a lovely person.
Netflix is frequently weird about their disinterest in doing anything to promote their shows.
And then they killed OA before it even really got off the ground. They had 5 years worth of story to tell, and Netflix is like, "Not enough interest." Well, you could try promoting it. And hire someone to write the synopses who doesn't make every show sound like the dumbest thing ever.
or they just dont want to be like "in your face" and want to surprise you.
Biyonzo that makes next to no sense for a company who’s sole job is to get you to watch their shows
They don’t have to promote their shows. They have a built in audience.
Rowynne Crowley The OA was terrible and genuinely didn’t have enough interest.
Im literally here purely to Thank David Harbour for those last words in his interview, i doubt i am the only one, but he made me realise i actually needed to hear those words! Looking forward to your book.
The penguin skeleton vomit story was the first thing to inspire me to laugh out loud all day, and it is late evening. Love this guy 😂
"You can be successful, have a large cultural voice, you can do a lot in this world" - fuck yes, thank you David.
Despite 'knowing better', I still slip into the thought pattern that tells me that because of my mental illness I'm always going to be trailing behind other people I admire, or trailing behind where I want to be.

Hopper is alive. He is inside the gate. The prisoner in Russia is Dr. Brenner.
Yeah idk why people forgot about thay theory.
I knew I liked this guy...then he started talking about repping for the dad bods...then he said he got diagnosed with being bipolar and learned how to manage it...I'm officially a fan of this guy now lol
He’s amazing
“ don’t mess around with Jim da da do da da de “ 😂
I officially love David Harbour
I made this platform to reach to real fans like you to appreciate your effort and to show how I do love you all ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love how modest he is, total respect and great actor!
".. so I just sorta sit around and dont groom very well". As one does, in a russian prison cell.
Diogo Cezar hint hint STRANGER THINGS!!!!!!
Interesting choice of accent, too. One might assume he's had some training in that.
I’m so happy he talked about mental illness. I’m definitely gonna get his book.
That got real at the end. Shame he didn't get at least one more minute to talk about it.
Whai a second...Colbert gave him some extra time already and let him finish his sentence before going to commercials. It's a late night show, you have commercial time slots you can't skip or avoid :) (I'll buy his book though because, as much as you do, I want to know more about it)
The Leopard Seal moment was like when your cat brings you a fresh kill as a gift.
Inside the house... Sometimes, still alive...
In all the time since Stranger Things started, I haven't watched many interviews with the cast at all. I think this is almost certainly my first time watching him be interviewed, and I'm struck by how much he seems like he's a really cool dude
"This is just me getting Strange, err weird..."
I loved this interview. It felt so casual and unrushed.
The Chief! What a guy.....
That little wave he gave the camera at the beginning made me smile for some reason 😊
Last name is Harbour....and was never on a boat...life and its ironies!
Steve and Jim were and are my favourite characters. Both so well written and brilliantly acted by Joe and David.
It's wonderful to hear someone with a platform discuss mental illness.
Mullet report
(Kudos 4 the book 👍)
His hair won't be combed back in ST4. He'll look like a (sexy) mess.
David Harbour mentioned during an interview that the Duffer Brothers had shown him Hoppers character arc over 4 to 5 seasons, I think it was one of the couple he did with David Pollak which are available on youtube.
He deserves all his newfound fame and success.
The final minute is an incredible message to the world!
The whole interview is just two guys saying YEAH! 😂
one of the best interviews on this show EVER
Stranger things cast are all so precious
David Harbour helps Greenpeace... and he's speaking out against the stigmas of mental illness. I didn't think I could like him any more than I already did, but I was wrong.
Beautiful. Great Interview. Want the book!
"And then I swear it smiled..." I loved this.
Thank you for being so open about mental health David
He's great. Perfect person to talk about mental illness and destigmatise it. Looking forward to the book
Hopper is one of the best characters on the show. Thank you for Chief Jim Hopper, David Harbour! Also, that Antarctica boat story had me in tears. Hilarious! And a big NOPE NOT FOR ME vibe as well.
Love David Harbour! 👍
Ok I'm definitely gonna read his book I can't wait
The only other guy who could play ‘The Dude’!
lol, not a bad idea.
Now I know why he sounded so familiar.. So true
The dude abides.
This just made me adore him to the fullest; especially talking about his Bi-polar struggles and he knows how much that’ll help so many young people and up in age! Surprised neither took the opportunity to compare the leopard sea mammal to being a stranger thing when he said it was like a slug…😂😂😂
“This is just me getting wierd” 😂🤣 I relate to that so much. Maybe too much. 😂🤷🏼♀️
I love this guy. Can’t wait to see him in the marvel cinematic universe
“Have you ever been on a boat?”
“Ya- they’re the things where you like stay dry on the top, bottoms all wet?”👌🏻😂
His book sound like it really be fun to read 💯
“It just slithers up like a giant yellow sea slug with a leopard face
And proceeds to look at us
And vomit out two almost perfectly intact penguin skeletons all over the beach
And then I swear it smiled
And then it went back in the ocean”
😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks
Well...
He is/was one of those actors who need to be in a movie, if just like a STAND-IN ... then you know it’s goin to be good 👍
conspiracy theory: hes not shaving/not cutting his hair because in stranger things season 4 he's going to have been in russian prison for months
Plus.. he now plays a Russian Villain in the new Marvel Movie
@@xccaae black widow's father
omg wait you predicted it except he shaved in s4😭😭😭
They would shave his head in prison
damn u were right

Hey I did that trip on an icebreaker too! The swells actually rocked me to sleep every night so guess success depends on your 'sea legs'. Side note: penguin colonies really stink--you can smell them from 20+ miles away.
That's so intriguing! Never even considered such a trip. How long did u stay?
Can't wait to read his book. Now I love him even more
He can't be dead right? He's such a cool and funny character!
I don’t think he’s dead because in season one they pretended el was dead but she wasn’t, also I don’t think they would kill such an important character
I'd have to watch it again, but I sweaaaar that he got sucked into the crack between worlds right before it closed and they just made it seem he was dead lol
The kid characters are cool but the series needs its adult characters. Hopper is alive.
When I feel low for having bipolar disorder, I always go to youtube and watch David Harbour interviews. It helps alot!
How interesting that Stephen put the emphasis on Stranger, in saying Stranger Things
David is totally awesome. He’s so humble and really funny!! He’s an absolute doll!
beloved indeed

I'd love to have a beer with this guy.
Saw his name, clicked, liked video, then watched. I know I'll love this interview already.
9:40 For some reason, I imagined this animated like an old Fleischer b&w cartoon.
2:50 The moment Stephen realized he wasn’t as sexy as a 40 inch waist.
Too bad they cut off helpful discussion about mental illness. Thank you for sharing, David! 🥰
I laaaaaaaaughed and laughed...good interview
i really like David Harbour. He seems so nice and fun.
