His humor reminds me a lot of the humor you see on British panel shows like 8 Out of 10 Cats and Would I Lie To You. Very dry, very quick wit. Very, very funny. Check those shows out if you dig Kevin Nealon. Lee Mack from Would I Lie To You is insanely funny.
Yea, he's clever! The technical term for his joke format is "paraprosdokian". I believe his genre would be considered absurdist, but I'm not an expert.
That’s why I love him on talk shows, particularly Conan. He’s so good at hiding the bit and keeping sincere until the punchline. Conan is always along for the ride with the audience.
@@ducciomassaro689a slinky is a toy and it’s a classic past time of kids, when they get one, to start it from the top of the stairs and watch it slink its way down the stairs by itself using its own momentum. So he was saying his wife was dressed as a slinky and she was going down the stairs lol. You may have to Google “slinky” to know what one looks like. And UA-cam videos of one going down stairs
@h3artands0uLL ohhhhhh ok I understand now, yeah that's funny as hell ahahahahaha I searched on Google translate but it was giving me completely different things. Well thanks man :)))
The party for the guy who doesn't die would have been a great Curb your enthusiasm sub plot. Larry: " I can't help but notice that the doctor said you had only 3 months and I spent all this money on a big party and here it is ten months and you're still alive."
Kevin Nealon is one of those people who are just genually funny. Brad Garret (Robert from everybody loves Raymond) is another example of someone who is a great comedy actor but is also hilarious off camera. Mad respect for both!
I love Kevin Nealon! He’s a great interviewee and he was one of the best of the WEEDS series. If you haven’t seen Weeds then think of it as the baby momma to Breaking Bad.
Kevin is one of the ultimate "straight" comedians, up there with John Cleese, where they manage to be *funnier* than the "zany" comedians because of their timing/delivery. I've been a huge fan of his ever since I first saw him doing the Weekend Update on SNL with Adam Sandler.
Never seen him as the sit down guest, just his standup and SNL. Always loved his humor. The caricature bit was great. How he got the ink on Conan, that's comedy.
I've heard and thought about the "Where is our waiter" line so many times I've forgotten why it was funny to me, and I don't think I could ever really describe it in the first place.
the man was a genius! I mean, in some ways he is funnier than Conan. So committed to his bit. Hevwas a comedy gold and SNL probably had its most glorious years when Kevin, Phil Hartman, Martin short, Steve martin, Chevy chase, Chris farley, Dan akroyd graced the stage. ❤😢
I think he’s still on fire. I enjoy his older bits the best though I like when he does a routine where it’s sort of like an ad Lib and he pretends not to know facts throughout the story and pauses so the audience can blurt out something funny and then he picks it as part of his story. I find that just brilliantly, and he has many more.
Always loved Kevin Nealon, was in the most odd way a big part of my ladder childhood years. I loved the show weeds and his character in it was amazing. One of those people I see pop up and or mentioned and just smile
@@MrWadeBarrett I’m talking about the moments where Conan asks a genuine out-of-the-moment question and he answers comedically. Ik a lot of talk shows have scripts and questions they gotta follow but some of them are genuine questions out of the script and he still answers in a funny way.
I don't know how to describe his type of humor, but I really dig it.
I would describe it as a carousel. It goes up and down and around. Circular. All good things.
everything he does is extremely absurdist, but he almost never breaks. it's actually amazing when you think about it.

I think Conan has described his humour as “Ever Green” with an absurdist point of view. Just a couple Irish lads having a Chin Wag!
I would qualify him as an absurdist cuz everything he says is hilariously absurd.
“How’d you get into photography?”
“I got a camera.”
Silence
Where is our waiter?!
It's hard to describe his style of comedy. He's just incredibly silly, and his delivery and timing are supreme.
It's very much like Canadian humor which is heavily inspired by British humor. Kevin is neither Canadian nor British though
Deadpan maybe ?

@@CT99999where the heck did you learn that word lol
Very circular. All good things
“This bitch” part in the beginning g had me dying. I love when someone can make Conan laugh like that.
Comedy gold.
One of the funniest things I've ever heard.
Same. When someone makes Conan cackle I absolutely love it. Makes the joke funnier to me
I've been thinking about this bit the whole weekend. And everytime I did it put a smile on my face
@@guzombomutombo I had to rewatch over the weekend too 😆. This clip is gold
He’s like the American John Cleese, the dry humor and the build up that keeps you holding on, until the grand slam punch line.
On point! Nice.
That’s why I love him on talk shows, particularly Conan. He’s so good at hiding the bit and keeping sincere until the punchline. Conan is always along for the ride with the audience.
Is it? That just sounds like a joke
I’m so happy someone said it. He’s exactly that!
7:00 "where is our waiter" is perfect. funny on so many levels, and the timing is chef's kiss
It’s become a classic late night tv moment.
One of the best jokes ever
Dinner With Andre
Okay the Chef can kiss all he wants, but the damn waiter needs to bring the food he made out here
That slinky bit is genius.
Im stealing that
I'm Italian so English is not my first language...
I didn't understand that joke, could you explain it please? Thanks :)

If Andy laughs it’s legit funny lol
“Smother you with a balloon animal” went under the radar! 😂
He’s always been underrated one of my favorites
4:16 God, his delivery is Oscar-worthy XD
I honestly forgot how funny Kevin is. Everyone should spend an hour with a funny person like this. OK maybe 15 minutes.
"How did you get into photography?"
"I got a camera."
Conan was trying so hard to keep a straight face.
It took me years to realize how funny Kevin is. His podcast episode with Conan is like being on mushrooms
same
Same. Saw him on SNL for years, but I was too young to appreciate dry humor. Dude is A+
He had Conan in literal TEARS by the end 😂 so classic
Kevin and Conan are so hilarious together. I love how Conan challenges him and is a little mean to him, cause he knows he’s gonna be funnier.
They neighbors
They worked together at SNL in the late 80s
@@EtoCobra they’re also neighbors pretty sure, I think it’s mentioned on the podcast
@@parkermorgan6890yeah but we’re not supposed to mention that
@@MrDogfish83 very nice
Oh man that slinky joke kills me so bad. I also believed he was being sincere, what a dick lol
😂😂😂 a dick lol

I love watching conan trying to hold back laughter in some of these.
A bit like Norm Macdonald with Conan but slightly more coherent
"I tell my kid little Dylan there, I says to him, 'A CLOWN IS GONNA MURDER YOU IN YOUR SLEEP!!' So then he punched me in the chest really hard."
He's like a diet Norm Macdonald. And I say that as a compliment.
Who say you are not going to be murder by an Clown is the best humor line ever
Just his poker face makes me laugh and he never cracks lol!
He NEVER fkn cracks!!! 😂 makes it that much funnier cause Conan is over there in stitches 😂
By far one of the funniest conversational comedians on the planet!!
2:36 forcing Conan into that fistbump is legendary
Kevin makes some really good points about life. His son is a lucky kid.
This dude and Norm. My yeo favorites. Just classic lovely perfect warm humor.
Kevin's a comedic genius!
the slinky joke about his wife is perfection....just amazing
The bit at 8:17 where he's sketching is incredible. You never know what's coming next
There are three guarantees in life. Death taxes and Kevin absolutely killing it on Conan.
He leveled me with the "where is our waiter".
I always loved his news update on SNL 😂…he is a funny dude
I never new how funny this guy's is
Genius! Love Kevin! So funny! Great wit! His SNL sketches are great. 😂😂😂😂
Leaving Kevin Nealon and Norm McDonald (RIP) in a room with a mic is dangerous business
Nealon is a genius. My kind of humour. He made Conan cry with laughter on his podcast too. It's hilarious
"She was coming down the stairs"
1:22 is straight out of the Simpsons
Kevin Nealon is one of those people who are just genually funny. Brad Garret (Robert from everybody loves Raymond) is another example of someone who is a great comedy actor but is also hilarious off camera. Mad respect for both!
He’s criminally underrated
Kevin traded in his upper lip for a great sense of humor and timing.
I love Kevin Nealon! He’s a great interviewee and he was one of the best of the WEEDS series. If you haven’t seen Weeds then think of it as the baby momma to Breaking Bad.
He’s one of the best.
I feel ignorant for not knowing how ridiculously funny Kevin Nealon is lol

He and Chevy Chase on the desk would have been epic.
"I believed you!" 5:05
I've never seen this guy before or know who he is, but I laughed hard a few times and the camera bit wrecked me 🤣😂
Kevin Nealon is hilarious!!! Loved his parts in Happy Gilmore and Grandma's Boy!
I don't know much, if anything, about Kevin Nealon, but this was some of the funniest stuff I've seen in a while.
"I should of started a little bit higher" lmao
I always get the impression Kevin could do a good Jeff Goldblum impression
He does a sketch on Adam Sandler’s What the Gell Happened to Me. Called The Therapist that is one of the funniest bits ever
it really is the best example of lowbrow fart humor but his delivery is what sells it. that bit kills me to this day
The Hypnotist! Hahahaaaaa I was 14 when that album came out. Needless to say it hit hard
His OCD Ken character on Crank Yankers was one of my favorites.
He is brilliant love Kevin
Oof that thing about his kid kinda hits hard.
Kevin is one of the greats!😂
He's Norm in a different body. Like seriously try to imaging what he's saying in Norms voice,it feels completely natural. Geniuses the both of them
4:59 Kevin Nealon is one of just three guests who makes Conan Break uncontrollably ❤
Other two are?
@@zoookx I'm sure Will Ferrel is one of them
Norm
@@cecildale31 I knew it. I would pick him too 🤣
Timothy Olyphant makes him laugh pretty hard to.@@zoookx
Never seen him as the sit down guest, just his standup and SNL. Always loved his humor. The caricature bit was great. How he got the ink on Conan, that's comedy.
And be careful not to get any of that on your clothes.... it does NOT come out....
I've heard and thought about the "Where is our waiter" line so many times I've forgotten why it was funny to me, and I don't think I could ever really describe it in the first place.
Why do I feel like he would be a really good Prof. Snape in the Harry Potter series?
this guy is a comedic genius.
I saw Kevin live at the FunnyBone. He's so good.
I love Kevin Nealon. He's amazing in Weeds!
This is like a mutant Sinatra, Walken, Dangerfield clone
Kevin was born to make comedians laugh.
😂 why don't i see more of this guy?
I'd never even heard of him. Funny bugger
So glad you guys like him. I grew up watching him on SNL and in movies starring SNL cast members (like Adam Sandler movies, David spade, etc)
Bowl of blood! Then the look he gives andy cuz hes so pleased with how gross that got
Kevin Nealon has an advanced PhD in dad jokes.
This timing is insane
I knew Kevin Nealon was funny, but had no idea he was 'the man'. My bad.

Kevin Nealon is just so funny. I wish he was on more stuff. I could watch him all day.
Are you familiar with his hiking podcast?
The GOAT
Never found him funny on SNL or his standup. But, he is a delightfully funny guy!!
He has the dad style jokes down
I called this “Sneak comedy” you don’t expect it at all 😂😂😂😂
You can not rob a house, only a person. The house was burgled.
What if you steal a person's house?
@@thefunkosaurus possible and grammatically correct but unlikely 😂
Did Kevin Nealon just spoil a second Parasite moving starring Joe Pesci?
i think these guys are just awesome
both he and martin short are my favourite conan guests. they have a simlar british style.
Happy Gilmore and SNL legend.
🌊🏄♂️ You could catch a damn wave in this guy's hair
I hope these two are friends irl.
He should play Deadpools uncle, I say uncle, no idea what's his name.
"I should've started up a little bit higher"
6:51 - 7:07 the best!
Whar an absolute legend
anyone one thinkning about not seeing this, don't
How does one even come up with this stuff on the spot, this man is a comedic genius
