I won't say 'underrated' but I get the point. In Hollywood stereotypes, he's not considered 'movie star' material or "A lister', maybe because hes not the matine idol type. However, make no mistake, there are few better and more versatile actors than Paul G
It's weird to see Paul so lively and flamboyant. He is a genius actor to transform from this sociable man to a fastidious, focused character. He is also so clever and truthful.
I loved him as Pig vomit. That was the first time I saw Paul acting and said to myself this guy will go far in the industry. So happy for his success. Cheers Paul.
hes such a great actor and so much fun to watch. I recently saw the movie All Is Bright and he saved that film. without him it would have been garbage. he just seems like a genuinely nice guy.
You do realize 'man spreading' is basic human anatomy, right? Women don't have external organs there, which is why their resting state for the pelvis is different from the male's. this so-called 'spread' is the natural relaxed state of our legs whether you like it or not. It actually hurts to narrow it for no reason.
Actually not surprised to hear he found the bondage to be cozy and relaxing. I once took an advanced first aid class and learned some advanced soft splints (to immobilize a broken arm when emergency services isn't coming for a while, e.g., when the victim is way up on a hiking trail) and the guy we wrapped up liked it so much he wanted to keep it on the rest of the afternoon - said it felt like a loving, secure hug.
+adj789 Have you rode in a c141 in a web set on a 9+hr flight next to someone manspreading? I have. Oh. and we did not sleep the night before and people were smoking. It is freaking uncomfortable to have your legs pointing in for that long.
+adj789 uhh, do all you people seriously not understand how a crowded subway system works. you can't just take up all the seat space. what the fuck. feminazis? maybe you impassioned weirdos should actually try riding a train before you fly into a rage about basic public transportation etiquette.
"i had a warm washing feeling go over me....". i'm thinking an effect of the limiting of his natural circulation - or a bottom was born. either way, i am so happy to have heard this.
I am surprised that they didn't have the bondage expert that tied him up speak with Paul before this and discuss with him the possibility - if not the likely probability - of him entering or "hitting" sub-space, and asking him if he had any experience with it before. That seems irresponsible. I'm glad that it didn't seem to be traumatic for him. But people who are not prepared for what subspace can be like, who are unprepared for that level of unconscious/subconscious physical surrender... It can leave them feeling very vulnerable and it can be a very traumatic experience. Glad it wasn't for him. But definitely not surprised if he kept fluttering or seeming to fall asleep. But it's far more likely that he was just in a subspace trance-like state. And people should not have kept trying to wake him up, that can also be traumatic. Not everybody hits subspace but those who do, have to be nurtured out of it.
My thoughts exactly! His description of falling asleep and feeling warmth and calmness is classic subspace experience. I couldn't ever reach that level, too much anxiety over the loss of control, but I've had a similar experience of submission that was unexpected, and it left me very shaken up.
I ...will never .... forget seeing the scene in "Big Fat Liar"; when Paul Giamani steps out of his swimming pool. Priceless moment. / Paul was having a "blue" day ...FOR SURE. ^ × ^ .... lol. He was pretty funny in that movie; along with Munez and Amanda Bynes. Too bad Hollywood isn't making movies like this anymore.
The burden of proof should be on Colbert to prove that Giamatti was manspreading. Giamatti should not have to prove that the car was empty. Colbert should have to show that the car was full.
Sharon Stone did a manspread: most paused scene in film history Sexy Paul Giamatti does it: everyone loses their minds. Equal compensation for equal work I say. Work that shit Paul, work it.
+Michael W I always though manspreading was only an issue in public areas, when you could make more room for other people. Sharon Stone wasn't really in a public crowded area.
Gah, he looks so familiar but I can't seem to figure out where do I recognise him from ... Taxi driver from Saving Mr Banks? Is that what I recognise him from?
Great underrated actor
+crevice_coin Yes
Great: yes - but underrated???
I won't say 'underrated' but I get the point. In Hollywood stereotypes, he's not considered 'movie star' material or "A lister', maybe because hes not the matine idol type. However, make no mistake, there are few better and more versatile actors than Paul G
Why? What else should he be, Jack Nicholson? He's well rated, on chance, like almost every celebrity.
Rob D he’s NOT underrated. Lol he’s fully appreciated as one of the best actors alive right now.
It's weird to see Paul so lively and flamboyant. He is a genius actor to transform from this sociable man to a fastidious, focused character. He is also so clever and truthful.
This is NOT the guy I've been watching on the show..
His acting is on a different level 👍
Sanky P. i agree 100% i’m catching up on billions and this isn’t chuck rhoades at all!!!
_Ahhh, Giamatti is so good._ This interview reminds me why I like him so much. ☺
Best line
Paul Giamatti: You missed a teachable moment with your family there. :D
"I had a warm washing feeling go over."
Yeah, Paul. We watched the show. We know,
Giamatti is an effortless guest, what a cool guy
the character: *serious, lowkey wanna bring you down*
the actor: *wholesome*
Love Paul Giamatti, he doesn't get the recognition he deserves!
Paul looks like a cool uncle :)
Armand Mill The drunk uncle who spouts conspiracy theories at the dinner table for sure
@@alexfoster9753He’s the uncle with the coolest job!!!
I loved him as Pig vomit. That was the first time I saw Paul acting and said to myself this guy will go far in the industry. So happy for his success. Cheers Paul.
Holy shit he has a completely different VOICE from the show. Amazing.
Somebody should write Paul an apology for casting him in The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
Xavi Golden Amen!!
hes such a great actor and so much fun to watch. I recently saw the movie All Is Bright and he saved that film. without him it would have been garbage. he just seems like a genuinely nice guy.
If Colbert wanted a kid friendly Paul Giamatti movie he should've picked *Big Fat Liar*. Classic flick. 5 stars. Two enthusiastic thumbs up.
Right,he should not watch billions with The kids
FYI, the "Please take my land!" safeword joke will make more sense if you watch the Whitesboro bit in the other video.
Some excellent actors in Billions. Giamatti is a whole other level of brilliance. Interesting he has the same droll turn of phrase as his character.
One of my favorite actors in the world -- multi-talented with an "every man" persona that takes him far!
Well, if Colbert had watched the rest of the scene, he would have understood the ‘warm washing feeling’ that came over Paul. 😄
this needs to be the top comment, people.
I just trust Paul Giamatti
why? he's a big fat liar
😂😂😂
Me too!!! Plus he was reading his sci fi book
Paul Giamatti makes me cry...it's a good thing.
You should see what she does after she puts out the cigarette on his chest!
Wow after watching other interviews it’s clear that Giamatti is so compelling. What a natural story teller
...a warm washing feeling, he says...yeah we saw that later in the scene ;)
Sarkast Nailed it.
Such a great actor!!
Great interview!
lmao if only stephen had watched the scene a liitttlle further lmaoooo
Paul Giamatti is fast becoming one of my favorite actors today.
As fairly well known as he is he is such an underrated actor!

Women don't have external organs there, which is why their resting state for the pelvis is different from the male's. this so-called 'spread' is the natural relaxed state of our legs whether you like it or not.

+Kurtis Millette (Firecleansesme) No, it doesn't.
smh you are a girl. u have no saying in this

"I'm blue da ba dee da ba die"
-Marty Wolf
Excited for Billions!
I'm glad he's still so hilarious!! 😹 He should be in more movies. Hopefully, he would wanna lead role.
He is so adorable
Giamatti is a great guy and portrays his character's kinks with so much grace. Let's be honest, we all have a guilty pleasure.
"Im not drinking any fuckin' merlot!"
I genuinely laughed so hard during this interview.
louis ck sounds a lot different now
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha
My favorite guy on Billions. I know more people like Bobby because he is handsome and all that but I find Chuck cuter and he out-smart Bobby.
top 5 favorite actors of all time
Nowhere near average - monumentously talented renaissance man. Likeable but never average
Why is "manspreading" still a thing?!?
+adj789 Because Feminazi's still don't have balls
+adj789 Have you rode in a c141 in a web set on a 9+hr flight next to someone manspreading? I have. Oh. and we did not sleep the night before and people were smoking. It is freaking uncomfortable to have your legs pointing in for that long.
+JewTube sorry. NOt all men. Just the jerks. Women can be too. Those too, please
+adj789 uhh, do all you people seriously not understand how a crowded subway system works. you can't just take up all the seat space.
what the fuck. feminazis? maybe you impassioned weirdos should actually try riding a train before you fly into a rage about basic public transportation etiquette.
periodikoSF Why make it a gender issue though?
Brilliant actor,in all his films....
Paul Giamatti is one of the greatest actors of our time.
"i had a warm washing feeling go over me....". i'm thinking an effect of the limiting of his natural circulation - or a bottom was born. either way, i am so happy to have heard this.
He was outstanding in John Adams.
Actially, even Damian and Paul are villains. The character of Dillon is the most available to be a kind of hero.
I’d fucking take a bullet for Paul I’ve always just loved him so much 😍
i enjoy that he took impartial stance several times during the course of the interview. always keeping reservation for alternative view.
Dude. That "warm washing feeling" was the URINE.
Giamati is a fucking beast, great actor, if he was 6’2” with a proper jaw line and a slimmer waist he’d be a super star
i bet you can find this guy at his neighborhood pub throwing back beers with the locals.
I am surprised that they didn't have the bondage expert that tied him up speak with Paul before this and discuss with him the possibility - if not the likely probability - of him entering or "hitting" sub-space, and asking him if he had any experience with it before.

This is a beautiful man
Why did I think this guy was dead? Not a joke. I really did and I'm genuinely confused.
+Captain Subpar Maybe he reminds you of Seymour Hoffman?
+Captain Subpar I guess you didn't watch straight outta compton.
+Captain Subpar We should all make comments rhyme more often.
+Captain Subpar You were probably thinking of James Gandolfini ?
+Captain Subpar Or perhaps Don Vito Andolini ?
did he say a warm washing feeling? I might have seen that..
Billions is excellent in every way!!
I ...will never .... forget seeing the scene in "Big Fat Liar"; when Paul Giamani steps out of his swimming pool. Priceless moment. / Paul was having a "blue" day ...FOR SURE. ^ × ^ .... lol. He was pretty funny in that movie; along with Munez and Amanda Bynes. Too bad Hollywood isn't making movies like this anymore.
"Warm washing feeling over me" yeah that's what she did right after the cigarette.
This is the pairing of two great actors. Enjoy their talk on the educational value of an opening BDSM scene of "Billions".
Paul really is just like one of your buds.
The burden of proof should be on Colbert to prove that Giamatti was manspreading. Giamatti should not have to prove that the car was empty. Colbert should have to show that the car was full.
frequent mistake......money is not the root of all evil..........the LOVE of money is the root of all evil. Big difference.
Power is corruptive. Money is just an outlet of power
He incredibly pulled of a British accent in the movie Shoot 'Em Up.
Stephen's tie is really nice
Brilliant actor
He was great in Private Parts!
He gets pissed on IMMEDIATELY after.
bless him... also #TeamRhoades
This guy proves that u can make it big with acting skills alone
Loved him since Sideways
You cant watch billions with your kids.
Sharon Stone did a manspread: most paused scene in film history
Sexy Paul Giamatti does it: everyone loses their minds.
Equal compensation for equal work I say. Work that shit Paul, work it.

+SkitHertz I can not know why you recognize him. However, you can easily find out.

Love Paul so much ❤
Lol seems like an average relatable guy but was born a millionaire. I just love him because he's an awesome actor.
Congrats to Paul on getting casted as old Louie in the Louis C.K. bio pic.
never heard of manspreading before
Has Stephen seen Chef???
I really like Paul.
Umm, maybe your circulation was cut off Paul!! Gee why am I passing out while bound in tight rope....
Lovely guy
Good actor
Billions is best show EVER 😎
I just refer to him as Chuck Rhoades 😀
Very tough apple hahahaha
Would have been funny, as a joke, on the set when they got him tied up to yell out LUNCH! and have everybody leave him there for a minute lol
Why is Chuck Rhoades dressed up like Bobby Axelrod......??
...Charles Rhodes?
I don't know if I believe he was by himself on that train. He seems like a big fat liar 😏
I'd say he's blue daba-dee daba-dye.
Maybe he's just hungry like the wolf. 😉
Teachable moment. Lol
he looks a lot like Bart now
john adams on the stephen colbert
wtf is "man spreading" ??
Good to see homer Simpson making it big
Superb actor !
What the heck is man-spreading? Should I be glad this is my first exposure to that word?
Love him
Big Momma's house.
