“Ya know what, I didn’t know her.” Craig’s on screen for 2 seconds, steals the segment. Please have him back.
'twas a feat, that one. Seconded.
It was very much with an air of: “Dennis the Peasant: Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.”
@@lekiscool
🤣
Seth has some real gems hiding just off camera!!
Yeah, that was so funny cause his response was so outta the blue. I can't tell how many times in my 70 years I've said the same thing about a recently deceased anything. 😅
If there was an Emmy for 'best appearance on another guy's show', he'd win that too.
Your always here with the jokes!
😂😂😂 fantastic
Norm McDonald or Bill Burr on Conan will win this Everytime!
@@aishamohammed8044 I think it's restricted to hosts
I enjoy him as a guest here more than as a host on his own show.
It's not an interview, it's two comedian friends hanging out in front of a camera and an audience for 10 minutes, and I'm here for it.
THIS!!
I never realised he was that funny. I always just thought his stuff was quite scripted. Hes hilarious.
@@stevenponte6655 Who is hillarious? John Oliver? Or Seth Mayers?
I know. They're silliness is fun.
@Steven Ponte His HBO show doesn't really showcase how truely funny he is -- his old podcast The Bugle was hillarious though. John just ranting about politics is so, so good.
"Mourning the shocking loss of a 96 year-old woman from natural causes" was my favorite part of that LWT episode. 😂
It was well executed, for sure, but it isn't even that new of a joke. I've heard this on several occasions any time some old head of state or whatever passes away.
Although I do agree, it was pretty great.
Given the rather colorful history of British monarchs dying of circumstances which could be neither proven or disproven to be “natural” including her own father, I feel an “alleged” thrown in wouldn’t have hindered the humor and added plausible deniability if needed
@@playnicechannel I agree with your "alleged" but it would have changed the joke too much.
I think there's a 90% chance they stuck her with a needle of coke and morphine, as they did for her predecessors, (and is quite well known, nothing "alleged" about it) in order to get the timing right and "ease her suffering" as she was surely done for. Frankly nothing wrong with that except everyone should get the same dignity and free drugs, not just benevolent dictators. I expect in 5 or 10 years it will come out in the news to the shock of only the most naive. And it is sort of no one else's business anyway, but we'll want to read it, that gossip being 90% of the value of the royals at this point anyway.
Me too!
@@playnicechannel What’s the rumour with her father? It was coronary thrombosis brought about by surgery for lung cancer. Do you mean her grandfather? Because that was euthanasia/assisted suicide/murder depending on the version and your stance on these things.
"One set of footprints in the sand, and it's a paw..."
Deadly 🤣🤣🤣
genius
Killed me 😂😂😂
Of course, we jackals would approve. 🐾🐾
Some of us will chuckle all night over that line
When did he tell that joke?
The idea of a drunk John Oliver being kicked out of Buckingham Palace for humping the metal knight armors is just hilarious to me
I love that the minute Oliver gets on the show they both giggle for 9 minutes straight
Kinda reminds me of the rapport that Conan had on his show with Bill Burr
@@nilsnilsnilsify yesss
Yeah giggling like silly little schoolgirls at their non jokes.
Both very cute, probably very likable men
This is straight to the point
"The question in their mind is always 'Will they behave?' not 'Why might they not?' There's no introspection..." I really like that and think it could be applied in a lot of contexts
John Oliver letting loose on other late night shows is always a treat :)
Maybe for you. That was the worst segment I've ever seen on Seth's show...him doubled over in falsetto laughter, and Oliver should have English subtitles scrolling below him. I love both of them, but this was pretty intolerable. I was glad when it was over.
@@edgarcayce2.02 British comedy is not for everyone. But his accent is far clearer than quite a few American accents I've heard.
@@edgarcayce2.02
I think you are on your own there.
indeed!
Who is he
This whole segment had me in tears. Even Craig's "You know what? I didn't know her" killed me
Craig almost stole that whole segment with just that one off the cuff line.
Oh, I think we're all on board with Craig now.
Best part to me
I'm gonna a need A LOT more of Craig!
For reasons...
@@MariaVosa he has a great UA-cam channel, busy twitch schedule off tour, and a great podcast about drums. I recommend the episode with Adam "Nolly" Getgood.
Craig only getting 5 seconds of screen time but proving just by being himself that he needs to be the permanent drummer for Seth 😂
First time I've seen him and DAYUM! That guy is sizzling hot
It really was a flawless one-liner, with a flawless delivery.
But the rotating drummer gig is a great opportunity for a lot of musicians rather than having a permanent one.
And sure enough, football fans did end up chanting/singing "LIZZIE'S IN A BOX" at a game lol.
"Please don't tell anybody"
"I'm going to tell everybody"
Lol, John is the best
John Oliver is a great American!
Pretty much sums up my working relationship with my last boss 😂
@@earthlingsunited2663 Except he is a Briton.
"whenever a senior royal dies, I will be here to give it the disrespect it deserves" this is one of the many reasons why you're brilliant, John!!!
Agreed. He's a hero.
Get that man a cape, stat!
Yeah, because he's right! We're in the 21st century now. In my opinion, the Republican Commonwealth of England and monarchy protocols at this time are total nonsense!
Nobody’s death deserves disrespect though. Loads of people may mock at the monarchy but it doesn’t take away that the Queen was a remarkable woman who stood by a promise made more than 60 years ago to the people. She is a beloved person and many people are actually mourning for her. To disrespect her death is to disrespect the people and disrespecting his own self for being a disrespectful duck.
Plastic Brummie John Olivier.
Means we will see him again in 5 or 15 years
Y'know how crazy the queen's funeral was?
It nearly caused my PhD defense IN CANADA to be cancelled.
It went ahead. Barely. With much administrative begging and pleading. But the pubs were closed afterward. Wtf.
Friggin' Brits.
This is why I refuse to do a PhD.
@@jackthompson6296 "refuse" lol nobody is making you do it, I'd actually recommend you don't lmao
I love Johns wife. Every story he tells of her is just golden.
All the time Columbo was on TV, I'd always wonder if he actually had a wife or if she was just a device to allow him to speculate on the crime and present some "evidence" from a third party. I'm wondering now if John is actually married.
@@SmilingIbis His wife is an Iraq war veteran. She was a medic.
@@robinbickel4594 : That's the truth, but I'm sure that Smiling Ibis meant it as a joke.
@@robinbickel4594 healing those who commit the war crimes, innit :)
I always like hearing about her, I find it interesting that she's apparently a republican and he's the biggest democrat to ever democrat
I always like watching John Oliver on other talk shows. He always feels like he’s there to cause trouble
I guess he doesn't have to worry about Business Daddy
He is. And that is why he (correctly) pointed out that he cannot go to the palace ;-)
I feel like being there to cause trouble should have been put on his birth certificate.
And like he doesn't do that on his own show? That literally is the theme of his own show. Although he seems to let go more on Seth's show than he does on Colbert.
Wherever John Oliver is, he is there to cause trouble.
Seeing John and Seth is always a delight. They both crack each other up in a glorious way.
While the rest of us look on befuddled.
@@edgarcayce2.02 Brilliant that you call for subtitles above and then use a Victorian word here. 🤣
Just like John and StevAHN. Colbertious
Very magnanimous of Seth to have John on after Seth lost the Emmy to John. Maybe this is John's way of atoning for his, what is it now, 13th Emmy? I was hoping they thought John's shelf was full and Seth had been doing a really good job for the last year. Oh well. Despite that, they are good friends.
I wanted Trevor to win this time.
I can understand the "forced mourning" from when I was stationed in Okinawa when Emperor Hirohito died and we were required to wear dark colors, be quiet etc even as Shinto Monks were dancing in the streets wearing red. Okinawa is technically part of Japan but the native Okinawans suffered greatly through the years under Japanese's rule.
@Nicky L Those people who carried an empty piece of paper begged to differ. To wit, security people were afraid those pieces of paper potentially read "Not My King", so by the end of the week they just randomly stopped people who just carried blank slates. That was simply ridiculous.
@Nicky L people were literally arrested for protesting the king lmao
There wasn’t any forced mourning don’t be so ridiculous
@@DizzyBusy Stop lying
@@Jackman1st it was lol. what reality are you living in?
I love Seth's laugh in this segment, you can truly tell that he loves John's humor. That is Seth's real nerdy laugh and I'm here for it.
How are you doing today? Hope you had a good day ? I found your profile and I must say you are worth been a friend . I would love to be your friend .your comments are always beautiful and worth reading mostly about Queen Elizabeth funeral .
I find it hilarious that John Oliver won the Emmy last week, then went on a victory tour on all the shows he beat. 😂😂
Receipts?
@@maazkalim ?
Evidences, proofs, and somesuch.
@@maazkalim Well, my comment was made in jest-but he was on Kimmel that night, right after they won, and Late Night (this clip). All he needs to do now is swing by the Daily Show and the Late Show.
So it's a conjecture, then.
Thanks for your rigorous-honesty - at last.
Wish you all the success in your well-intentioned, selfless endeavours in your life going forward.
Goodbye!
I lost it at "one set of footprints, and it's a paw"
John Oliver's humor is leathal... Quick and unexpected.
We were lucky enough to John Oliver perform live years ago and the off-the-cuff riffs were by far the most hilarious and memorable parts. He was doing a bit about wanting to be a footballer when he grew up, and the crowd got so quiet that I think he was genuinely offended -- his response to which was the funniest thing I've ever seen.
Like a bear.
Comment boost + favorite joke of the segment
Well Said !! His wit is razor sharp.
Impressive since what he’s working with there is a bear and they’ve always been more power over agility sort of alignment
"I really can't go there and behave" is John going anywhere and I mean that in the best way possible!
Him and Seth meeting always makes me so happy
That segment wasn’t long enough- that’s how good Oliver is!
it needed to be an hour
The segment should only have been 10 seconds long
One of the many things I love about John Oliver is his incredible chemistry with EVERY SINGLE OTHER late night host. There's no tension like with Conan and Colbert. Seth, Colbert, Kimmel, whoever. They all love interviewing him and it's always a blast.
What tension with Conan and Colbert? I loved when they were on each other’s shows or doing a collab.
Jimmy Kimmel and Fallon are so unfunny.
@@katrose5179 my best guess is that they just worded it really badly. That they didn’t mean “there’s no tension like there is with Conan and Colbert,” that he just meant “when he’s with like Conan and Colbert, and there’s no tension.” I’m not sure I’ve ever seen him on Conan, but he’s been on Colbert countless times and they both seem to really enjoy themselves. And I’ve seen Colbert and Conan interact in fun ways, so they couldn’t mean that either…
@@brianmorton9419 I guess. It just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me no matter how I try to look at it. They all seem to get along great and have charming interactions.
They're referencing the tension between Conan and colbert that used to exist between the two. Although, to be fair, I think the chemistry attributed to John Oliver as being unique to him is overstated in the original comment. Colbert would probably have tension with Oliver if they weren't old friends to begin with.
"You know what, i didn't know her" LEGENDARY - humor is tragedy plus time, he just didnt need much time!
"Unless you're Jason borne, which let's just face it.. physically and emotionally, I am *not* "
Oliver is so damn funny 😂
thanks for having me guys 🖤
"Basically, whenever a senior royal dies [...] I will come here to give it the disrespect it deserves" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I didn't want this conversation to end.
I’m English and I endorse this message. They still played football in Scotland and there were some hilarious acts of rebellion! Good on ‘em.
And immediately there were Royalists who wanted to put the 'rebellious Scots to crush' part back into the national anthem :)
I didn't know about that. To be fair, I only know about the queen passing like two days later, I was so confused why my youtube feed was bombarded with the queen, British royals and Meghan/Harry when I didn't even watch anything related to them. So hearing about singling out one sport event to postpone is so weird; why not postpone all the sport events?
Are you referring to Celtic fans chanting about hating royals through the minute's silence? I'm Scottish and anti-monarchy but things like that are just childish and embarrassing.
@@ninamimi6622 I do so agree Nina. Thing is probably if one asked them why individually the response might be pretty lame. " Well I was feeling it at the time and waiting for the footie to start" and similar things:)"But hey I have no ill will personally to the Queen...I never met the lass"
Scots Wha Hae!
_"Click your heels three times & I will be here to give it the disrespect it deserves"_ 🤣🤣🤣
the fact that they censored John's joke over there despite the queen's "incredible sense of humor" is absolutely hilarious
they are promoting one massive spin only--like the parades
Well it's not like she censored it.
Respect the Queen? or even 'respect the dead' - both are sensitive subjects for some people, not for others. Expect a full spectrum of views including mine as an atheist and on the zero interest level for royalty - even if I had met her, I am sure the conversation wasn't deep. The dickish inflection was perfect! My condolences to those who feel differently.
Why would the UK censor something that nobody in the UK watches? The only place to watch this from the UK is online, and I am watching it now. People use the word 'fact' so loosely.
@@RupertBruce f right. what has she ever done in the name generosity?. just reflecting on the very definition of imperialism, reminds us about the good works of the crown, hmmmm?
John deserves so much more than 10 minutes. Seeing him truly enjoy himself is a treat we don't get nearly enough.
That's why, among other things, I love John. He's one of the few people that doesn't revere to the British monarchy. I am tired of the media coverage of billionaire monarchs. Monarchy is anachronistic.
Correlation is not causation but it is noticeable that most of the countries regularly ranked highest for happiness, freedom, democracy etc are constitutional monarchies. Sweden, Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands plus of course New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the UK. Having a figurehead head of state separate from politics may well result in a greater willingness to demand more from the politicians. In countries like the USA the President is revered and there is a tendency to view criticism of the POTUS and criticism of the country. In a constitutional monarchy we can freely criticise our political leaders without that worry.
The USA has an elected President/head of state. The UK has a powerless King but has universal healthcare, gun control, the right to abortion, birth control, gay marriage etc. Given the choice I'm happy I live in the UK.
@@karlbassett8485 As you say, correlation does not equal causation, because I would assume the main cause of what you're describing is that nations with constitutional monarchies tend to be very old, and have generations of stealing other nation's wealth to create stability. That absolutely includes the US, which does not have healthcare etc., I certainly wish we did.
But I think there are more pertinent differences between the US and the other nations you list than it not being a constitutional monarchy, such as the US's huge population and the population's diversity, financial and otherwise. It's hard to get the US to agree to much of anything, largely because of our culture's focus on individualism which I'm not a huge fan of, but I also think it's worth remembering how many people are in the US compared to those other countries. 331 million people cannot really compare to the other countries on your list.
John Oliver is a national treasure.
No he is not
I agree He is not
@@msmissy6888
He's funny, but his internalized Anglophobia is tiring.
@@gloomyblackfur399 anglophobia? most intelligent brits are in total disagreement with the idea of monarchy and inherited privilege.
Anyone else go "Wait, Martin Short was in that movie about the big red dog?" every time John said Clifford? Cos that's the only place my brain went and the more he described it, the more interested I got in watching Clifford the Big Red Dog
I kept thinking "Is there another film named Clifford"?
Martin Short is the Cat in the Hat
@@Tht1Gy
When I googled it, there was the wikipedia about that movie, and everyithing else was Clifford the Big Red Dog 🤣😆😂
I was waiting for this interview ever since the queen died.. John, you did not disappoint :)
I’ve been waiting for the queen to die just to see this interview! 😅
watch some Trevor Noah clips
In Australia, (they give OBEs here too because we are still a colony) it is well known that OBE stands for "Other Bastard's Efforts".
"That's not a joke. That's just a fact with kind of a dickish inflection" is genius.
"She wanted to live to see Mulaney tour." Under rated quip right there.
That interview could have/should have gone on for A LOT longer. They were having a good time. I was enjoying watching them......
WHY GOD? WHYYYYYYYY? LMAO
Yep, that was the shortest 9 1/2 minutes on UA-cam.
Yes! Every time Seth did a segue I was like "Noooo, let J.O. have a chat!"
“She just wanted to live to see Mulaney’s tour” and the reaction was AMAZING
"The B.E. part of that is a hell of a thing to want after your surname". Love him.
That was great, what a comedy pairing. I think Seth and John need to go day drinking, or do a full show together.👏
Yesss!!!!
Oh yes that'd be a great episode
YESSSS
Cheers to this suggestion!
oml this sounds iconic, I need a seth and john go day drinking in my life 😂
I'm a simple girl. I seen John Oliver in the title and I click like...if there was a love I'd click that too!
“There is one set of footprints in the sand, and it is a paw.” 😂
This is exactly why John always wins Emmy’s, he is so smart and funny and a decent person, how can you not love that !
Yeah he’s a real peach isn’t he.
smart? yes, but he does struggles to get out of his bubble and line of thinking. funny? arguable, he tries far too hard and has got an Americanised sense of humour and . decent? well, he is a "left"-wing convicted "republican" for whom tradition and monarchy are "outdated" and thus need to be banned and replaced, HOWEVER for tens of million of British, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand people did loss a symbol of political and institution constancy, tradition and someone who was always indirectly present in their lives for 96 years. Young and old. Rich and poor. Upper or Lower class. Educated and uneducated.
By the way, he misrepresented the class system. EVERY country has an undeclared class system. In fact, the USA is a far more unequal and elitist country than the UK is. The UK just kept the class system for mostly ceremonial purposes...
He fled The UK in spite of shilling for its policies
@@TheSundayShooter not a Bugle fan, I see?
@@DizzyBusy I'm not a fan of anti-rights kno'bblers like John "Current Date & Time" Oliver
I love hearing Seth laugh, it makes my soul happy.
Same. He's so precious 😊
I think it's more of a giggle. And yes, it lightens my heart.
Sounds fake
For those who haven't seen Clifford, it's a WEIRD movie, but remarkably star studded, and quite funny. Richard Kind is *hilarious* in his few minutes of screen time.
""Clifford" is not only pure and utter batshit.
It is one of these movies, you cannot but wonder, how a whole bunch of people could have thought, that might be working.
Think the worst SNL-movie and multiply by your social security number and shoesize.
I've never seen John Oliver's wife but I already love her dearly.
I think it's kind of fitting that a woman who likes Clifford would end up being married to John Oliver. Weird humour that works.
It has Richard Kind? I'm in. That beautiful, huge-mouthed genius.
@@thatthingisaid5766 - Very briefly. First five to ten minutes. And he's a hurricane of insanity. 🤣
Richard Kind is great. He and George Clooney were roommates n the pranks George would pull on Richard were ridiculous. He tells a couple of stories on Conan Obrien’s Podcast…actually it may have been on Smartless with Sean Hayes Will Arnett and Jason Bateman
Trust John and Seth to always turn a routine interview right into a wild hilarious ride with the most unpredictable things - the Sinaloa cartel, the movie Clifford, Morrison's 🤣 Simply love them together!
OMG I forgot about the Sinaloa cartel. Gotta watch that one again!
The Sinaloa cartel was a cursed interview! Dang, thanks for reminding me
@@DizzyBusywhat really made it the best for me was that even though he was committing to the bit he still couldn’t stop laughing at it
"There is one set of footprints in the sand, and it's a paw" Not a sentence I thought I'd every hear, but it made me chuckle hard! XD
I would watch an hour of Seth asking John questions he only kind of answers 😂
I'm British, and live in England, and the last 10 days have been on a level of absurdity that I've never ever seen before. It is beyond parody. The scary thing has been people arrested for expressing republican views.
I was so hoping that QE2 would be the last one… but the last 10 days has really depressed me
As an American today its always jarring to hear "republican views" being used to describe a person who doesn't like rich privileged tw*ts and wouldn't ever support one lol. I do understand what "republican" means in the UK. I watch loads of British entertainment. Just goes to show how a word can evoke different responses from different ppl in different places.
It's ridiculous, the forced mourning we are supposed to endure. I went out for a long walk yesterday to get away from it, there seemed to be a lot of other folk doing the same thing.
I have to ask why we're people in the UK finding everything wrong with prince Harry and Meghan Markle just for the hell of it. It's been how many years? The UK is no better than the US when it comes to maliciously showing and spreading hate and racsim.
@@esmewitch Except you were never forced to mourn anyone. I didn’t. But people wanted to. It’s not all about what you want. Watch a book instead.
The Mulaney thing was the line because everyone in the audience knows that John Mulaney has really gone downhill, it first became apparent on this show, and Seth is presumably good friends with him so it feels like an ooooh moment, but not because of the queen 😅
That didn't click to me at first but thanks for this; it's a shame practically everything leading to the rehab and out messed Mulaney up and I haven't been back to following him since. Seems likely American comedians' shelf lives are getting shorter and shorter.
Both these guys do such a service, and it's nice to see them having a chat.
Wow. Not a MBE, but they actually gave him an OBE, even knowing the body of his work. They basically dared him not to turn it down. Also glad to see John made back alive after the cartel business from the last time he was on.
Why is an OBE not desirable? From context clues, I’m assuming it’s because it somehow endorses the class system. But I thought this was largely ceremonial, like getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom here in the US. Now I’m wondering if being knighted has the same connotations as the OBE.
@@ellicel as he pointed out, it’s the BE part of it. It refers to the British empire and represents the invasion, murder and theft carried out in the pursuit of the British empire.
@@sunnywynn56 Order of the British Empire. A medal given by the crown to British citizens for various cultural or moral achievements.
@@sunnywynn56 Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire. One rank below a knighthood.
@@goawaytours Thanks. I didn’t realize until this segment that this award was anything but highly coveted, especially since whenever we hear of it being presented it’s always reported about in such a positive manner. And this is the first I’ve heard of anyone turning it down. Although, as he said there’s probably many people who just don’t mention it as requested.
I actually heard a commentator saying the Queen will be having a rest until tomorrow (when her procession stopped for the day on her way back to London). I don’t think she was tired at all!
Lol
Similarly, the public broadcaster in Canada, " Coming up on The National, the latest on the Queen's passing" The latest? Is she not still dead? This isn't a developing story!
The RELENTLESS "tragedy porn," the INSISTENCE that everyone in the Commonwealth IS personally devastated by the death of a person they never met, the swift and vociferous outrage if one declines to pretend to be rendered incapable of functioning for being bereft, is a bizarre form of propaganda. The emboldened and chest-puffing imperialism, unilaterally reported as "jolly good, as it should be, wonderful, very impressive" is both regressive and frightening.
She probably felt better than she has in years. 😁
If you read obituaries they often say "So and so will be resting at such and such Funeral Home". It's just a term to help grieving family and close friends. Same as saying "visitation hours will be held ....." Noone goes to visit a body but that's what it's called. ✌
I worked at a grocery store (in the US, not Morrison's!) and each register had volume control for the beeps. I kept mine low bc it triggered migraines (in combination with the light flash. had to leave that job!).
John's lightning-quick switch from full-on laughter to sarcastic somberness at 2:50 is a sight to behold :D
Seth and John live election coverage would be amazing! Maybe bring in an up and coming act too. Can see that format working amazingly
they could run the pbs or nbc debate...what a notion! or let Oliver and ted nugent do it to even things out
That would be awesome! Especially in time for the upcoming US midterms.
Until it becomes a day drinking with John Oliver segment when they gotta bring out the bottle after they tell us “hey guys everything’s fucked!!!”
Ah, the two entertainers whose jokes got me through the pandemic 🥰 thank you both for being funny and pissed off at the same time without making me circle around back to depressed
laughter is necessary to our very survival.
Same!
DAY DRINKING WITH JOHN OLIVER!!!
you know we all want it
I love when John Oliver is on .. they're both so funny together .
My first thought when the Queen died was to call my cousins that live over there and offer my condolences for just how awful television was about to become for them.
Truly, your heart breaks. Thoughts and prayers.
How many kids are going to be born in 9 months? How much of a spike do you think it'll be?
As someone who lives in the UK, I can tell you it's been awful
From the UK, anything happen in the rest of the world over the last 10 days that I should know about?
🤣
@@allenmorgan Australia here - don't ask us mate, we're in the same boat. For the last week or more, the news has consisted of nothing but the Queen's death - and sports. Heaven forbid the news should bleed into the all-important sports segment. There could be an imminent asteroid strike and we'd still get the bloody sports segment.
Man, professor Duncan's come a long way from teaching at Greendale.

Omg throwing to Craig was such a shock. I didn't know he was guest drummer, and they showed him and I'm like IS THAT CRAIG REYNOLDS? Did not expect that lol
Yep, he's just done another episode with them!
I always love to think about which celebrities I would have to a dinner party. These two are especially at the top of that list.
I feel like some of the best moments on these late night shows is when they have on another host. These 2 need a podcast
The best thing to happen to American Late Night shows is John Oliver.
Why you ask? It's that humour from a British person is far more digestible when it comes to real news topics.
There is a natural cynicism mixed with self-deprecation, and a necessary, albeit, blunt delivery from Brits that American humorists don't have. They don't need to be loved like American hosts. They will tell you the truth regardless.
They can go from funny to serious on a penny (or dime) and not lose pace or attention with the audience.
Love from Australia, John! 🇦🇺
These two have such phenomenal chemistry together, and oh my god John is holding nothing back 🤣
"there's one set of footprints in the sand and it's a paw" LMAOOOO lost it-
I just want them to talk forever. I could listen to these two talk about anything for hours.

Can I just say how nice it feels to see people hugging again?

I love Seth, I love Colbert, but John Oliver is just another level of awesome
Right there with you, AntonMarc
I love watching Seth, Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert and John Oliver.
John Oliver is hilarious, but as I have heard him say on more than one occasion, the other late night hosts have to hit the ground running on Mondays, coming up with multiple segments and interviews several days a week, and sometimes, they have to change something practically last minute. That does make a difference. I think it would be fun if John and Seth switched, with John doing one of the nights ACL is on and Seth doing one of John’s shows. Then, they could do a short meet up on one of Seth’s shows and spend some time laughing about the experience.
My three favorites as well 😌
love oliver colbert and trevor noah
Johnny O is my favorite!! And I love the way Seth says “John Oliver” instead of how everyone else pronounces it “Jah Noliver”. Good on you both great gents!
John Oliver makes me laugh so much! He's a viola playing Cambridge graduate who has settled in the colonies and he's criticizing the class system 🤣🤣
John Oliver is the most genuinely good human on television
He certainly isn't
Seth Meyers, John Oliver....you two MUST have at least a funny news clip per week for all of us, can't u see you guys are hilarious??? thanks guys. great. great interview.
What did he say? I couldn't understand it. "She just wanted to see Mulaney ___." ??
@@tinakirkham9486 Mulaney's tour. I only know because the closed captioning worked, watching on my phone.
Being from the UK, and the dystopian 1940s nightmare that we’re going through, this is quite cathartic and comforting at this time of great sorrow and total insanity. Gawd bless King John 🫡 🇬🇧 👑
Weirdly, I don't think people would have behaved like this in the 1940's. They were hardy, went through a war, fought for welfare state. It's their odious, boomer offspring that's created this circus.
Exactly 🤣
I need a Day Drinking with John Oliver.
I never get tired of listening to John take the piss out of the UK, especially when it involves the royals and all of their pomp and circumstance 😂
It's called being disrespectful.
Over here we have joe Biden instead of Pomp and Circumstance. Oliver better suited to being in America.
@@joanie3452 oooooh are they gonna give you a medal if you keep thinking they're superior and appointed by God? Is that what you're waiting for while they waste all your tax money and let you eat cake?
How dare you bring Sir Cumstance into this!
@@hajarmdn4883 1) the Presidential system, especially the US one costs way more than the European monarchy with the most pomp, the British.
2) Taxes are paid. There are 3 categories.
A) “Crown” holdings - This is valued at 40 billion. It has estates and palaces and Crown Jewels which are owned by the crown. The family doesn’t own any of this personally. They are entitled to profits from crown estate (but have been giving 85% of it to the government for a 15% salary) and cash use the jewels and palaces but in their duty as head of state. They can’t pass it on to others, sell it off or loan it.
B) Duchy (Estate lands) of Lancaster and York - they are also owned by the crown and managed by a government controlled trust for future monarchs and will go to the monarch/heir. No one else can claim it. They can’t be salami sliced and sold for personal profits. Capital gains must be reinvested in the estate by law. The monarch/heir can get the profits. They also pay income tax on those profits (the highest bracket).
C) Private property - They include artwork, cars, jewels and a couple of palaces. These can go from Elizabeth II to anyone. If anyone apart from Charles gets it, they’ll have to pay inheritance tax. The current sovereign need not.
And of course if the Sovereign Grant is stopped (that 15%), by law they can just take up the 40 billion... They are subsidising the taxpayer tbh. What the UK Royal family eats up in tax (less than 2 pounds) is made up by the millions they bring in via tourism and their brand. Do you see the Irish or German President get this much press when they die in office? Heck here you and I are talking about the queen while we most likely don’t even know the names of those heads of state.
3) As if the US President doesn’t give medals.. oh wait they don’t.. they just appoint their loyalists as Supreme Court Justices.
Didn't think I could love John Oliver any more! 🥰
john and seth are always such a riot together i love them. even though the sight of john oliver without a jacket and tie takes a moment of getting used to haha
All I could think was , “You’re so skinny! You don’t eat enough! Listen to your mama, have some more lasagne!”
I found it quite thoughtful, respecting Seth's dress code.
How are you doing today? Hope you had a good day ? I found your profile and I must say you are worth been a friend . I would love to be your friend .your comments are always beautiful and worth reading mostly about Queen Elizabeth funeral .
@@jameslincoln6889 Oh, look, another pickup artist, posting the same thing on every comment by a woman in the section.
"There's one footprint in the sand and it's a paw" 😄 what a great line
John looked impressed and surprised how smoothly that interview ended! Seth is a pro
I could watch tem together all day. They are so funny
"There is one set of footprints in the sand... and it is a paw" 😂
I am reminded of that old saying, people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
Lol I love that John is the unofficial official royal correspondent for Seth 😂
"...unless you're Jason Bourne, physically and emotionally i'm not...' this guy kills
I adore John Oliver so much. Actors and comedians often say how they don't care for the attention, but I think John Oliver is genuine about it. He's so good at what he does, and so funny. I feel he reluctantly takes the fame and recognition that comes with it.
He does so much good with his show. At the end of every episode i always say to my wife "John is just a truly good person."
John Oliver is so so funny! Razor sharp wit. Makes me laugh even when I feel I shouldn't.
Thank Christ someone thinks the same , we've just had 10 days of wall to wall sycophancy , with oddballs queueing for 14 hours to view an empty coffin , some twice !!
