You don’t think British comedians are funny… Get ready for a backlash, you cannot imagine
Bring on the backlash. God forbid someone has an honest opinion. Yet we were laughing the entire time, so obviously it is funny, just need more exposure, hence a reaction channel 😌
@@tntreactions I think the language difference is why you may not find our comedy funny as we pronounce things differently here which you would need to understand those differences to understand what the punchline is about
Nah, he's entitled to his opinion. I mean he is wrong, but he's entitled to be wrong... Jk obv, comedy is the same as beauty m8, it's in the eye of the beholder.
@@AD270479 No difference to me saying I hate USA comedians, which I do
@@tntreactions like the sarcasm nice one.
How can you not find British comedy funny? That's crazy. We love British comedy here in Holland. Much of the world loves British comedy and music. It's the best in the world👌.
depends which comedians they are watching i have noticed a lot of the americans who hate british comedy are watching the newer politically correct stuff that not even we brits tend to find funny but when you show them al murray, two ronnies, carry on films or monty python they like it.
Americans. 😃😃
I love Holland , 30 years ago we had our honeymoon over there and some old guy offers me 5000 Guilders to have sex with my wife! But you live and learn. Take care brother, love from Yorkshire.
@@martinotoole4097 So what did you spend it on?
@@kevinharding1181 Hookers and Gin , and a little bit of skunk Kevin . I didn't fritter it away.
I don't think i've ever heard a more absurd statement than 'British comedy isn't funny'.
I was shocked and dismayed by it. 😮
" Doesn't matter who comes first when you're on your own " .... 🤣🤣🤣 Best line ever.
As an Australian I find British comedy alot funnier than American it's just different. We both tend to be very dry or use sarcasm and or be ironical in our comedy.
Yeah plus where as Americans tend to stick to tame, boring jokes, you guys in Australia are a bit like us, got to take the jokes as far as we can. I also don't think that the UK and Australia has as big of a cancel culture towards comedians as America does.
I've always considers Ozzy's as Brits with good weather
@@jameslynch9442 aye pretty much, crazy wildlife too
and we actually have subtleties in our humour (britain even more) unlike american
I always think American style is organised fun. The American office was funny though even if it was written by an Englishman
Al Murray is playing a character 'The pub landlord' hence the beer pumps. This stereotypical character reflects the men who used to run pubs (called landlords) , who were typically middle aged conservative types, who had a strong (but not always informed) opinion on everything, were very patriotic, and also a traditional view on mens and womens roles. This comedy persona allows him to play off national stereotypes, and show todays world and issues through this narrow, blinkered perspective for comedy effect. Given many of us encountered people with these outlook and world views growing up, its comedy gold when applied to life today. Also his rapport with the audience works well, especially as he spends time getting to know members of the audience at the beginning of his show so he can play off them and interact later as part of the joke and stories. Great fun!
Barbara Windsor "GET AAT OF MY PUB" 😆 Us English use comedy as a sign of affection. If it were anything else we would be bullies. We are way far off and gone from that. You should hear what I call my 90 year old mother and how she retaliates when I visit her. Then we hug and reminisce. I still blame her for me, she must have dropped me multiple times onto my head when I was a baby. "It's not my fault" I keep telling her !
Yeah, he's actually really smart. He studied history at Oxford.
Very well said. Pity you have to explain it for our more sensitive brethren ! If you don't want to have the piss taken out of you spend the 35 quid ticket on a curry. Saw AL a few months back, he was amazing and merciless!!
@@martinotoole4097 Nice one Martin! 👍
@@MarkmanOTW cheers brother.
Try Al Murray "Name a country, we've defeated them"
Remember being an ally to us counts as losing to us 😂
Why I like this clip so much is while it is titled Al Murray vs Americans he spends half of the act mocking Britain as much as America
Hes an historian, he knows his shit and hes on point, his timing is spot on, he is playing the pub landlord..
It's not that our comedy isn't funny, it's that we have a different sense of humour and takes a bit of getting used to but once you understand it you'll love it.
There's a subtlety that you have to be born in the UK to appreciate.
@@paulmurgatroyd6372 Not quite Paul, Australians, New Zealanders, South Africans and many Canadians appreciate it as well. It's down to the humour you were exposed to when young.
Scandinavians appreciate it as well. British humour has always been popular here in Norway.
Tru Say,Mi Bredda. Preach Those Words,Mi Bredrin...
@@paulmurgatroyd6372it's more a case of 'the more you listen the more it sinks in'
Johnny Depp found a British comedy TV sketch show called “The fast show” so funny he contacted them and asked to be in it as himself and showed just how different our comedy is but it was a real gem still funny today.
You’ll learn throughout watching him more how smart he is. He studied history at Oxford university. He uses his knowledge of history to twist it into comedy.
He’s playing a character called the ‘pub landlord’ hence the beer taps in the background. A very patriotic Brit but also makes jokes out of brits as much as everyone else. He is also great with crowd participation
A few video recommendations are:
Al Murray- Name a country we have defeated them
Al Murray - Why the British are undefeated world war champions
Al Murray takes on the nations of the world (a longer one 23 mins but my personal favourite)
I think a lot of Yanks don't realize that he's he's also using self-deprecation regarding the British. Something that comes short in American comedy.
I bought a kit off his company British drum co the other week.nice guy
No point this dude watches anymore Al Murray, its way above his head.
British comedy is the best in the world. You just have to immerse yourself in it. How do you think we get through the hard times, I'll tell you, with a laugh. Love to you both, Martin.
Glad you actually enjoyed it and took it for what it is - a great piece of comedy. I have watched other US reactors who either don't laugh or seem to get offended. Well done nice video :)
If they listened closer, they'd understand that he was piss-taking both nations.
@@mikefraser4513 exactly
Pissed means drunk in the context here,and not angry.
Being born in England and now living in Arizona for 4 years it took a long time for people to adjust. I grew up watching judd apatow movies like superbad but also British TV like the Inbetweeners which was an exact reality of British teen life. I think we both appreciate each others comedy but in az if I was to banter with someone like we would at home I'd be dead by now!
I highly recommend: Al Murray - Nations Of The World, its a longer one but one of his best
His voice, the character, the clothes, the beer is all just part of a character he creates (a typical London pub landlord). In reality he’s a well spoken Oxford educated historian, very smart. As someone else said you have to check out : we have defeated everyone at war. I think there are 2 versions, the one where he has a beard is the best one.
Al Murray, "Name A Country - We Have Defeated Them".
Wait you said you don't think British comedy is funny?...me as an American I think they are the only ones who makes hardcore comedy by making the jokes sound so much more naughtier but in a hysterical way...even their late show hosts act like that.
Well said. Looks like America is going to be just fine.
TNT reactions messed up big time. But that is on him. I'm not going to hang that on the whole nation. 🇺🇲👍
All of Al Murray's videos are great but my favourites are Nations of the World and Global Finance.
Al Murray uses this character THE PUB LANDLORD for his stand up
I think because America is so conservative regarding their humour, they dont get that we will take the piss out of everything and everyone.
Conservative and humour don't belong in a sentence together. 🤣
I'm not disagreeing with you. But if you know a "conservative" person, you probably won't take them out to see a comedian.
So conservative and comedy really don't belong together as most conservative people are what comedy is making fun of.
Especially in America.
Americans made movies like Bridgette Jones Diaries that are all about the conservative people in Britain being the subject of the humour.
Certainly not my "cup of tea".
I prefer Australian humour and the British and Irish stuff.
I used to like Tom Green. He was very far from conservative.
George Carlin was great.
Modern American comedy is bad though. Look at what happens when Chris Rock says something actually funny. 🤔
Just like Will Smith, the USA in general has *lost* its sense of humour.
That's okay because of the British and others.
Izmo from Finland is hilarious. 😂
This is the real deal when it comes to British comedy. Check out all Jobs are terrible... Great reaction, you will love all of Al Murray, he is brilliant and you will learn history too...
I met Al Murry - he was the MC for a band I played in. Don't be fooled - it is extremely intelligent and fast reacting - a very funny guy.
I was scrolling through you videos looking for a Father Ted reaction. You'll get so many laughs from that show!
Rhod Gilbert is universally funny and US people would get the drift. He is Welsh.
Al Murray, how global finance works is a good one
The best advise I can give is learn to laugh at yourself and the stereotypes of peoples groups haha coz if you can’t laugh at yourself then what can laugh at haha great reaction 😂
Al Murray is even funnier once you realise that the man behind the Pub Landlord character is really taking the piss out of how the British take the piss out of foreigners - our unshakeable sense of national superiority, obsession with the past glories of Empire, etc. He's actually a very well-spoken and highly educated man, adopting the stereotypical persona of a working class pub landlord for comedic purposes. That's not even his real accent! A lot of British humour is multilayered in this way, which is why some people from outside the UK don't quite get it and its subtleties. I'd recommend Micky Flannagan as an example of a comedian whose humour is a lot more straightforward and universal. Yet to see any reactors not find Micky hilarious!
You must try Micky Flanagan,you comes from the East End of London, he does have quite a strong Cockney accent, but he is fabulously funny. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Al Murray’s character ‘The Pub Landlord’ is hilarious, outrageous.
Al Murray 😂 stage name , The Pub Landlord😅
Al Murray is one of the funniest comedians he’s also very educated he went to Oxford university.
British comedy is the most diverse comedy in the world. Also find it a lot sharper and intelligent than American comedy. I've watched a lot of reaction vids by Americans watching British comedy and half the jokes go over their head. P.S. I'm not British!
I saw him live and he’s tremendous. “It doesn’t matter who comes first when you’re on your own!”…. 😂
Al. Murray is very intelligent and will astonish you with his knowledge of history. Don't be fooled by his demeanor, he is acting out a character "The Pub Landlord" His videos are a must see.
We love British humour in Scandinavia, and we usually get it straight away - and then we keep a very low profile, because we can't beat them at their own game 😂
Try Al Murray nations of the world. BTW Al Murray has several degrees in History, that’s why he’s able to use it a lot in his comedy routines. It’s the British version of roasting
Thanks ever so much for your reactions, you luvly couple.
😊 thank you
The only reason you dont like British comedy is that most of it will have a lot of local references and accents and the jokes will go over your heads😁
Not really. Brittish comedy is usually dry, goofy and slapstick. This was the first British comedian I've seen that didn't make silly faces, change the pitch of voice or smash watermelons to get a laugh.
@@tntreactions - You are entitled to your opinion and we should respect that, but I can honestly say that apart from Benny Hill and a few like him, British comedy is far from slapstick and most of the descriptions you make.
We all like different things but please don’t use blanket opinions on the whole of British comedy - I sincerely hope you give yourself a chance to enjoy more comedy from this side of the pond.
@@tntreactions all the reactors are doing Eddie Izzard, you guyss need to catch up. Death Star Canteen and on computers are dope
Glad you enjoyed that. Other Al Murray, try "Secretary", the one about jobs, and how the world financial system works. 🙂
Great reactions to Al......you must, must, must check out his "Secretary " sketch. Quite a few years old now but the humour stands the test of time.
If you look for Stephen Frys explanation on TH-cam, of the differences in British & American humour, you may get to understand why British humour is more appreciated across the world rather than the American style.
Al Murray interviewing Donny Osmond is worth watching.
It's very Funny just above your head mate .
It doesn't matter who comes first when your on your own...Typical, brilliant, British double entendre.
Clues in the name, ffs
@@michaelrudd6041 I don't understand your comment...
@@michaelrudd6041What name?
@@michaelrudd6041Great Britain?
But he was talking about the Moon landing and coming first by yourself. Not that Great Britain has great in the name.
And learn to use punctuation!
I love British humour, wry and dry 😅
Please Watch Blackadder Goes Forth with a younger Comedian: Hugh ( DR. HOUSE ) Laurie and FLEABAG starring the brilliant Phoebe Waller-Bridge and The original OFFICE with Ricky Gervais or the fabulous Panel Show "Would I Lie To You" (WILTY) and ENJOY:)
You mean intelligent and dry and sarcastic.
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 Or Satirical,ironical and deadpan..
@@Isleofskye That too.
Wet and dry, so, we're moist?? hahahaha
Not only is British comedy hilarious but we have the best talent musicians in the world 🌎
If no-one else has suggested him, Micky Flanagan. Very much in the same category as Al Murray.
Ooh god yes 😂 the man is up there as well 😂👌
He doesn't just have a working bar on stage. That would be something, just on it's own. But that, my friends, is a MOTORIZED bar, that he drove on to the stage from the street.
Try some Micky Flanagan “Dhelly Belly” 👍🏻
Al Murray is a caricature of a pub landlord.
We love Americans, we are the same but different , Al is great he goes along the whole front row and finds out about the people then ridicules them , very funny.
Remember the pub landlord is just a character. Al is actually a very well spoken intelligent man . Just for giggles 😂
Some of the best British comedy and comedians are Alan Partridge, Frankie Boyle, Paul Whitehouse, The Mighty Boosh, Sean Lock, Jo Brand, Ricky Gervais, David Mitchell, Frank Skinner, and loads more. A lot of British people I know don't like any of these either... but the smartest ones I know do
He's laughing at us more than you. Luv Yer. ❤🤠🙏
An American saying British humour isn't funny is like a child saying it doesn't want salad lol
Children actually love salad. Not all are raised on chicken nuggets and pizza as food groups.
He does a very good satirical British stereotype, what’s really funny is that a decent amount of British people take him at face value, when he’s actively taking the piss out of them.
He has beer pumps because the entire act is "Al Murray, Pub Landlord". He's playing the part of a South East public-house landlord.
You got all his jokes which most Americans don’t so fair play.
Al plays a pub landlord (Bar manager). it's a character. he is funny as f.
Listen to Eddie Izzard.
Al Murray is actually a highly educated guy, and his Pub Landlord is his comic character.
I cant find a reaction to Simon Evans.. Yet there's a video on here that's one one the best stand up performances ive seen. Similar to this kind of banter.
Peter kay is a good one. He aint crude or dry.
Thanks for al Murray reaction 👍🏻❤️🏴
SEAN LOCK and JOHNNY VEGAS are both great comedians ...sadly we lost Sean a bit ago...RIP
Try Jimmy Carr, Peter Kay, Sarah Millican, Billy Connolly, Milton Jones, Frankie Boyle and Gary Delaney to name just a few
jimmy carr, frankie boyle..jesus man thats advanced for americans lol they gona need therapy haha
"Anne Murray !?!" LOL
Anne Murray is a Canadian songstress from the 60's and 70's. You're looking for "Al" Murray mate. LMAO
Subbed!
You got it man. English humour. He is playing a part, the opiniated pub landlord, hence the 4 pumps. Dig the channel
Love watching Americans respond to Al Murray. Thanks for this. British humour is very different from American. My friend from New York does not get banter.😂
React to Al Murray, name a country, we have defeated them. I think you'll be impressed. He's a lot more than just a comedy act !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try early Billy Connelly, Catherine Tate as Nan, David Mitchell on rant, early Frankie Boyle, any of the Graham Norton talk show clips, Jim Davidson adult Christmas Pantomimes, Kevin Bridges, Lee Evans, Micky McIntre, Rowan Atkinson (aka Mr Bean)...
Any of the late night comedian panel shows from "8 out of 10 cats do Countdown" to "Not The Nine O'Clock News".
It's very British and I'm surprised you guys understood the humour. Kudos.
A comic genius. I went to see him at my local theatre last year
Al Murray's world finance is good.
I used to feel the same way about American comedy and then I found Curb your Enthusiasm 🤣🤣
Same but for me it was the Office, far better than the UK version.
100%! I refused to listen to recommendation after recommendation of Curb..... then finally one day....
@@StuartMcArdle Congratulations 😉
Good shout. I came to it late (i.e. last year!) and it's so dry.
@@pauloneill7939 If you go back 20 years to when The UK version came out with iys individual format and breaking the 4th wall, then you might feel different as breaking the 4th Wall is commonplace now.
Every time I see The UK version again of any episode I realised I missed half of the expressions and jokes the first 3 times..lol
You should also look up the Irish comedian Dylan Moran. His 'Americans' routine is hysterical.
You could look at this YT vid - 'Billy Connolly - Wildebeest - Two Night Stand 1997'. Billy's from Scotland and he's talking about a tv programme he was watching. Very funny as are most of his stories
Try Lee Evans and Big nastie and Alan Carr roast, Peter Kay.. All. hilarious British comedians
Brits are the best comedians without question.
You should try Mickey Flanagan or the most famous brit com Only fools and horses both just fantastically funny.
Al Murray- What hell sounds like in different countries
Al Murray - Explains the Euro crisis
British Comedy is Unique and not only the best in the world but the most Copied/imitated, in the U.S it's usually revolves a round a household (the house in King of Queens has been used in 6 other sitcoms)
Great reaction guys. Try our Micky Flanagan (Delhi Belly) Lee Evans 'olympics' 'Police horses" 'flying economy' Sarah Millican is hilarious too but you may find her accent hard to understand with her being from Newcastle in the UK. Our Peter Kay is absolutely hilarious too and Michael Mckintyre. Really enjoyed your reaction. What a beautiful couple you are too.
All great but I must add Garry Delaney too.
Sure!
Pissed means drunk over here 🙃 🍺🍻🥴
Should do the Jimmy Carr roast of Rob Lowe - brutal lol
More Please!
obviously the lady points out the dangers "hes got 4 taps in the back"
He is one of the most intelligent comedians of all time, his history knowledge is outstanding. His gimmick is The Pub Landlord who thinks Britain is the greatest country on Earth and has an answer for everything!!
I'm Irish and the English treated us like sh*t for 700 years, watch How The British Starved Ireland
4:12 Most Americans don't get that, probably because they don't know what God Save the Queen (King) is and/or don't know the tune
5:08 I'm amazed at how many people don't get that!
Michael McIntyre , you might like his skits very funny UK comedian
One thing about British comedy is that we will make a joke about anything at all, even if it is tasteless and objectionable to other people. An example of such occurred when Marc Bolan, the lead singer for a group called T-Rex back in the 70's, died in a car crash at a time when radio was king. Within 5 minutes of the announcement we heard "Marc Bolan was on the radio today. Yes, and the dashboard, the front window, the seat belts". A second example shows that even our Royal Family aren't exempt, after the announcement of Lady Di's death we got "She was asleep as soon as her head hit that pillow (pillar)".
Al Murray name a country is just as funny
May I suggest
Jimmy Carr, he has a very unique sense of humour you will either love or hate
Im British and i hate him, he glorifies paedophiles...
Not seen comedy from you two before - I suggest "The Ricky Gervais Show", it's a cartoon animated from a podcast with Ricky Gervais, Karl Pilkington and Stephen Merchant. It's generally safe to get full episodes on youtube for reactions 👍
PS: if you want more Al Murray I suggest "How Global Finance Really Works" - the 20 min vid. It sounds boring but it's brilliant
Crap show.
Hell. There's so much, and thru time. But Canucks like me got it early, so we're right in there.
On The Buses, Are You Being Served, Doctor In The House, Are You Being Served Again, Keepin Up Appearances. And, of course, Monty Python.
The mine of comedy to be delved into risks releasing a balrog, it does.
Just look at the bones
Watch An Idiot Abroad, the Prostate exam. Gotta be the funniest thing ever to be shown on TV.
A British pub has a row of pumps for different ales
what a lovely couple
