I love Jason Bateman. He is a natural comedic actor with impeccable timing and can pull off a top notch drama character. For a guy that has been in the Hollywood spotlight his entire life, he seems so down to earth and a sweet guy.
Agreed, he is actually my favorite comedic/dramatic actor out there. I watch the movies that I don’t think I expected to be very good, but just because Jason Bateman was in them I thought “they can’t be bad” & they weren’t.
@@anthonybalzarini-leonhart8562 he made that show! Granted, the whole premise of the show was fantastic, the entire cast was fantastic & somehow (and you wouldn’t expect so) the show just ‘worked’, plus it’s one of the few who came back after all those years & was still good! I started this by saying “Jason Bateman made that show”, but then talk to myself into “everyone & everything that went into that show me that show”.
Bateman really is one of the greatest talk show guests of all time. The dude just knows how to do it. The charm, the charisma, the laid back, fun attitude. All of it.
Love Jason Bateman as an actor, he can do it all. BIG Ozark fan! I note how he still looks fantastic for a man in his 50's. THAT'S what having a good attitude and a good sense of humour can get you! Always a joy to listen to his interviews. 🤩
He's been clean and sober for decades as well, that's very helpful for keeping a youthful appearance. I don't think he ever smoked cigarettes, good thing cause those will age you like a leather glove left out in the sun.
Mannnn, I've been rocking with Jason Bateman since Silver Spoons. I remember him a little bit on Little House on the Prairie but definitely Silver Spoons. He's so awesome.
I have always loved Jason Bateman, and the friendship between Jimmy Kimmel and Jason and the camaraderie between them is great. Jason was awesome in "Ozark" as were all the cast in that series
Long before that. Since Little house on the Prairie. which was 10 years before that. This man has been around since he was probably seven or so. If I remember correctly from that show. I’m pretty sure he was 11 or 12 on Silver Spoons. Possibly 13 or 14. Pretty much his whole life he’s been on screen. Not many people can say that. And he is still going strong. And amazing actor and could easily be a great comedian. I mean he already is, but I don’t think he’s ever done standup. Which I would love to see.
I see anything with Jason Bateman and immediately want to watch it. What child actor of our years has continued to be successful and so likeable? The Spelling Bee I have probably watched 10 times and still enjoy it.
Same! It makes me laugh so hard! Their banter is sooo good. Have you listened to the new show that Jameela Jamil is hosting? The three guys aren’t part of the show but they are producing it under their Smartless umbrella or something. Anyways, it’s good. I really like it so far.
I got tired of it because they are too self -obsessed and fake to a lot of guests. I'd rather listen to the interviewers that actually watch the films the guests are in.
Jason Bateman is handsome, funny, and so freaking talented..his timing and delivery is simply the best in the industry. I LOVE everything he does. Bravo JB.
I remember first watching young Jason on 80s sitcom It's your move.... He already that mischievous arrogant persona that we all so well know as an adult. wish Jason continued success with his career... He is one of these actors that will leave the industry in a better place than he found it
I just love this guy! So cute, and humble. He always seems like he just snuck into the celebrity life and that smile! Hahaha, he got away with something. --- You have earned every bit of it, Jason!
Some people are just inherently comical at their very essence. They simply express themselves naturally and are humorous, if not hilarious basically by happenstance. When you combine a self=awareness of this gift with razor sharp wit and attunement to irony as if it were a sixth sense, you get Jason Bateman. The man is impossible to observe without at least a smirk at bare minimum.
fell in love with jason way back in the hogan family! he's so fantastic in comedies which made me respect him even more when he went out of his comfort zone and did ozark, which to me is one of the greatest series there is.
❤ Jason. Have since Little House!! SUCH a cute story about tricking poor Jimmy into adopting the gecko!!!😂 Happy for Jane, and happy for Jason's kids that they got a puppy. Every child should have the responsibility of pets growing up. Makes them into kinder, compassionate humans❤
I love the 80's. I was 10 years old in 1989 so I'm not an 80s teenager but my love for REAL MUSIC, made me go back to the 80s and found amazing artists, not what mentioned by Jimmy, but artists like The Smiths, Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Railway Children, ABC, The Human League, Thompson Twins, Spandau Ballet, OMD, and a plethora of other amazing artists!
Huge fan since I was a kid in the 80's.Grew up watching him on "Littlw House" and "Hogan's Family".Glad he made a comeback about 20 years ago,he deserved it.
I'm Team Kimmel regarding '80s music. Used to dance on stage (retired spicy dancer, 1987-1996 in Waikiki) to so many great tunes! I started at age 19 and danced to Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, Poison, Bon Jovi.. offstage I was a hard core UK Alternative music fan. Pet Shop Boys, New Order, The Smiths, The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees... so much FUN! Great interview. I've had a comedic crush on Bateman since Silver Spoons!
I actually had a friend that was able to give me some Prince music that hasn't been released yet. I am telling you that there are At least 30 Albums of Music that have not been heard by most people in that Vault, his best Album has not even been released Yet...
I love Jason Bateman. He is a natural comedic actor with impeccable timing and can pull off a top notch drama character. For a guy that has been in the Hollywood spotlight his entire life, he seems so down to earth and a sweet guy.
I agree. Love him.
@@bettycogswell9851 Me too!
Agreed, he is actually my favorite comedic/dramatic actor out there. I watch the movies that I don’t think I expected to be very good, but just because Jason Bateman was in them I thought “they can’t be bad” & they weren’t.
And how about Bateman in Arrested Development? His straight delivery and sympathetic character are brilliantly acted, in my megalomaniacal opinion.

Saying its a gecko bro
I v😊
Jason is always full of life and ready to take on any role.
I've loved Jason Bateman since the 80s. This was a fun interview and I agree with Jimmy. The 80s were a great time for music!❤
Jason and Jimmy are hysterical ,so relaxed and real. It's so enjoyable to watch. Thank you
Jason's a gem. The Hogan Family, Arrested Development, Ozark, etc. he's just perfect.
Its actually Valerie not hogan family
He was also in Hancock.
The 80’s is the best decade and Jason Bateman was awesome then and now! ❤
agreed!
The 70s weren't too bad (especially musc wise) either. 🎶🎶😂
No decade is "the best" one
the fashion wasn't great.
Great segment. Jason comes off as completely natural, very funny, and of course Jimmy is great as always.
Jason Bateman is one of these acting jewels who are down to Earth!

Jason Bateman has been entertaining us since Silver Spoons!
His comedic timing has been spot~on since then!
He was my favourite on Silver Spoons

“People are talking about Ben Affleck and that other guy”😂😂😂😂
Dwl😂 Matt Damon they have a ever lasting feud lol love their chemistry
I so agree with Jimmy about 80's music, obsessed with it as well. Never better music ever.
My crush for Jason Bateman is never ending. Been crushing on this guy since Silver Spoons🥰
Bateman's hairstyle is very flattering on him...
I feel he never got as much attention as he deserves.. everyone loves him..need to keep seeing more of him .
I see anything with Jason Bateman and immediately want to watch it. What child actor of our years has continued to be successful and so likeable? The Spelling Bee I have probably watched 10 times and still enjoy it.
Truly a master of comedy. We should all be calling him Master Bateman.
You're joking, right?
Master-baterman
Must be the first comedian they have ever seen
New Message.....you win the day!!
He just needs a gardener.
Loving the Smartless Podcast. It's about the only thing that regularly makes me laugh out loud atm.

@@juliewick no I haven't. I'll give it a listen.

So much love and respect for Jason Bateman. Love all his shows and movies. Love, peace, and respect

Genuine guy. Good energy.
We should be friends.
Jason Bateman is handsome, funny, and so freaking talented..his timing and delivery is simply the best in the industry. I LOVE everything he does. Bravo JB.
He's always full of energy, relaxed and looking good.
Jimmy's commitment to the bit is respectable.
I've always adored Jason Bateman. I will watch a movie solely on the fact that it has him in it, I'm know I'm gonna love it.
Love this guy's humor, loved him in The Horrible bosses movies xD
Jason had absolutely no shame in passing off the gecko lol !!! Love it !!
You’re pretty! 😊
Arrested development was and is the greatest sitcom ever! Thank you Jason ❤❤❤
Jason is the best for decades and decades and I love him infinitely!!!!
Jason is a legend. He was great in Air.
Jason Bateman is the most talented underrated actor in the USA. I adore Jason Bateman.
Had the biggest crush on Jason Bateman when I was a kid….and here I am at 48 still loving him.
I remember first watching young Jason on 80s sitcom It's your move.... He already that mischievous arrogant persona that we all so well know as an adult.
wish Jason continued success with his career... He is one of these actors that will leave the industry in a better place than he found it
Jason Bateman and Paul Rudd are two of the best aged men I’ve ever seen 🔥
Oh, yeah! The 80s are the greatest music decades. Miss the 80s for many things: TV series, etc.
This dude is so great all his roles crack me tf up
I just love this guy! So cute, and humble. He always seems like he just snuck into the celebrity life and that smile! Hahaha, he got away with something. --- You have earned every bit of it, Jason!
Jason Bateman is terrific.
LOVE Jason - so funny. Wish I could bring back the 80's too...
His the freaking best mate ❤❤❤ I grew up along with him, how do you forget that smile 😃
Always funny, always charming, one of my favorite actor/comedians of all time.
Love love love Jason Bateman. He has a great podcast with Sean Hayes and Will Arnett called Smartless, very good!
Just rewatched a lot of Arrested Development. He worked hard.
Haven’t had this much fun watching Bateman since “It’s Your Move” in ‘84…
Love the man. Never says anything out of tone.
I'm with you Jimmy! I love 80's rock. Listen to it everyday.🕺
I was born in the 80s and I love the 80s music 🥰🥰🥰
love Justin Bateman. he's hilarious. and legendary.
Jimmy has turned into a pretty slick talk show host. I like him
I think he is the most likable amongst all hollywood stars it seems so it goes without saying he is the best right now.
I feel the same way about 80s music. And yea I have yacht music on my playlist. All the feels.
Jason seemed genuinely devastated someone was selling his Ozark wrap gift coverses lol
70s / 80s for music, 80s for clothes. And Jason Bateman will always be awesome 🙂
Bateman is the man and an inspiration!
They are so comfortable with each other
80’s is 💯 % the best decade of music outside of contemporary worship and hiphop haha I seriously LOVE the 80’s!!!
@@diabolusvincit music is subjective to taste - to each their own ✌️
Matt got in the show twice in one week... Time for a staff meeting, Jimmy.
LMAO
I had the biggest crush on Jason Bateman back in the 80s
Saw a preview of Air last night and Bateman was sooo good in it!
LOL at the gecko bit 😂😂
Jane is going to be pissed. 🦎
Seemed a little hostile and almost like his wife and kid told him to take it back.
@@vb8428 Lmoat? What's lmoat?

Jason Bateman is my #1 celebrity crush 😻
Jason is the best, he so enjoyable to watch. 😂
The 80's had the best music ever!!!
I have always been a hugh fan of Mr. Bateman ! Being the same age as he I feel we’re not quite old yet. 😅
This man gets more beautiful every time he is on air. ENOUGH ALREADY!
Jason Bateman has always had flawless hair! He shud leave it that length. It’s a vibe!🔥🔥
I'm with his wife on this, his hair looks incredible 🔥
fell in love with jason way back in the hogan family! he's so fantastic in comedies which made me respect him even more when he went out of his comfort zone and did ozark, which to me is one of the greatest series there is.
He's the best guest🎉
Unquestionably a comedy master. He should be addressed as Master Bateman by all of us.
The 80s were the best ❤
❤❤
Great friendship there. Love them both.
Love Jason Bateman
❤😍🥰will watch anything if he is in it
Long hair does look great on him
❤ Jason. Have since Little House!! SUCH a cute story about tricking poor Jimmy into adopting the gecko!!!😂 Happy for Jane, and happy for Jason's kids that they got a puppy. Every child should have the responsibility of pets growing up. Makes them into kinder, compassionate humans❤
80s music is the best ! See Professor of Rock and other comments on lots of 80s videos.

Jason only gets better with age. Good for him
Jason Bateman rules. And what a fine head of hair on him!
Huge fan since I was a kid in the 80's.Grew up watching him on "Littlw House" and "Hogan's Family".Glad he made a comeback about 20 years ago,he deserved it.
100 percent agree that the 80's was and always will be the best decade in human history. No question
Jason still has that 80's 90's Michael J. Fox style hair.
He’s always been the little Mikey
HAHAHAH he really returned the gecko thats amazing
I f*cking love Jason Bateman, especially in Arrested Development (“cornballing piece of sh*t”) 😂
Jason Bateman is the prince of the 80's . My favourite for sure.
I love him so much in Arrested Development
80's was the greatest music ever !!!
He is so darn adorable. I luv the 80s!

Is Jason Bateman a vampire? He just doesn’t age!
80s era has the best music by far!!!
I'd like another season of *Ozark*
Nah they need to redo the last season. It was so underwhelming
I agree the ending felt so off to me.
What a legend
“It’s just a perspective, don’t get down on yourself” 😂😂😂
80s music was awesome
