I saw Oh, Mary twice downtown and will go back to see it again. Hands down the funniest show I have ever seen. The audience literally roars with laughter from start to finish. It is pure joy.
sigh. I wish I could go, I can barely afford the bus fare to and from NYC from Philly let alone Broadway tickets.
@@beatnickblanket This show and many others have rush tickets on the day of the performance that make the price much more affordable. Oh Mary has $43 rush and $47 digital lottery tickets. I've gone to lots of shows that way
I want to vomit 🤮
@@Broadwaybuff-pi1qgare those tickets available tp a lot of ppl though or is it a rare "lottery" luck of the draw thing? Thanks for sharing
So jealous. Details sis!
I'm so happy for Cole Escola, getting such a positive reaction from everybody
There’s a particular twist in the play that is one of the most earth-shatteringly funny moments in the history of theater, I believe.
I love the way Whoopi lights up when she talks to theatre people aka. Her people.
Cole Escola: “I would like to write plays for other people.”
Whoopi: “I’ll take one. I’ll take one.”
(Y’all did you see the PRICELESS reaction on Coles sweet face when Queen Whoopi said:
“I’ll take one? I’ll take one?”
He looked like a kid in Awe!!
Aww. My Heart!!
(& When Cole started playing the auctioneer part. I LOL so hard!!) 🤣
Aww. My heart, Who else better than Queen Whoopi herself to write a play for? That’s one of the many things I absolutely LOVE, LOVE about Whoopi!! So, I’ll try my best just to name a few, anyway, Whoopi has always been down to earth, & REAL!! She’s always remained to do so even with her years, & years of FAME, & SUCESS!! Whoopi has been the same humble, kind, thoughtful human being since the beginning!! When Whoopi sees talent, beauty, or a Beautiful 🔥 in someone, there’s no holding her back!! When She sees it, She will let them know She sees it, camera there, or no
Camera there!! She will let them know the power that lies within them!! Do you know the encouragement that can do to one’s soul, to know a Beautiful Legend sees Beauty, Fire, strength, potential in them? She is like more than just an actress, comedian, or legend, she’s a teacher, etc.!! She doesn’t get enough of credit for being so many’s HEROS I honestly could go on, & on, it’s just so sweet, & SELFLESS!! Once again, I Love the way she sees Beauty, passion, FIRE, & talent in others!! 🥹 Queen Whoopi, & Cole are also hilarious!! I Loved this interview so much!! Btw, Look at the thumbnail, & the smile on Whoopi’s face, she’s in complete aww, she’s so mesmerized looking at Cole!! Again, the passion, talent, the Fire, & The love she sees in others, AWW. MY HEART!! Long story short let me break it down, when I see Whoopi mesmerized, in complete awe like she was with Cole, when I see Whoopi wanting to help out another person like talented Cole, or even anyone not talented, I’m in complete Awe. I get overwhelmed, I get emotional, & cry, that’s beautiful!! This time I laughed since they’re both comedians!! Anyway, I’m wishing you nothing, but the best Cole, & Whoopi!! I LOVE YOU BOTH!! 🥰💜
Yeah and you comment a lot on here. Stop saying my last name dammit😂😂😂😂
Yes ,she is a very generous actress !
Shea, so Beautifully so written, so well said!! I Loved every word so much, so true!! 😊💜🦋💜
Also, sheldoncole1151, is so obsessed with you!! He thinks he’s the only person in the world with the name Cole!! No one is talking about him, NO OME!! The AMAZING Cole you, I, everyone are talking about is the one being interviewed on the view, the one who has Whoopi mesmerized, & whose wanting him to write a play for her, the Cole whose career whose career is so amazing he’s on the view etc!! You’re talking about a Beautiful from the inside, out Cole, NOT the internet TROLL who harassed you on the internet everyday, IMMATURE Cole!! Also, FYI: To the internet Cole, almost everyone has a Cole in their family, friend , or someone they name Cole!! @sheldoncole1151, GROW UP you whinny CRY BABY!! Girl, forget the haters name, he is such an attention seeker again, @sheldoncole1151!! 💯🤣🙄
& Again, Shea this was absolutely so Beautifully written!! Loved every word so much!! 😊💜🌹💜
Cole's pronouns are they/them.
@@howardj602 Not necessarily, considering her most recent book tanked. :\
Back then she was just a mom who lived with Puka behind P.F Changs doing dogfights and death metal. And now she's in Broadway!
As a foreigner I really hope this play willl be filmed so that I can watch it
No it won’t be.
They are never released to the public.
as a foreigner i hope u can leave ur country one day.
@@chef1088 Not always true.
Cole Escola is really flying high right now! So happy for them!

This was right up Whoopi's alley. She was loving this interview. It's nice to see her laughing. I just saw Cole on the Las Culturistas podcast, so I was wondering how they'd feature him for a daytime audience.🤣
I cannot believe he’s made the view! I used to watch him on YT!

@@beatnickblanket Has there been a law yet that officially changed that forces people to refer to people as they/them?
@@nzelver559 Most people who have even a shred of respect for other human beings choose to honor the use of the terms they have asked be used when referring to them. It's real fuckin' basic.
@@beatnickblanketand you are here to police and demand they / them do!! How virtuous of you!
"something that's doable for me"
"two bedridden..." 6:30
Yeah I don’t think she caught that shade at all.
What shade?
Burst into tears flawlessly at 5:50. I have followed them since the very beginning VGL Boys here on youtube. He deserves every single millisecond of his success.
Cole's pronouns are they/them.
@@beatnickblanket I don't do police for people who I've met in person in the past before pronouns. I clearly said them earlier. After VGL Boys I said he as I met him then. Thanks.

@@stephen6307 I posted my response on individual people's comments because it's highly unlikely those people are going to come back and see replies I left on someone else's comment. This way they get a notification and will see.
We love cole escola
🤮🤮🤮🤮
@@NYRelicHunters Poor little dude! Judging from the number of comments left by you in this comment section, you must be desperate for external validation ... Are you so insecure about yourself, that someone like Escola can get you into this state of uncontrollable hysteria?
That smile of Whoopi's took me back the the characters of her first show.
I've seen Oh Mary twice and I would see it again. It's so funny!
Fun fact: First usage of singular they/them pronouns goes back to 1375. But why care when you can be a bigot?
It took me 7 minutes to figure out what he was wearing, lol! Love Jeffrey & Cole. Wish I was in NYC to see ‘Mary!’ ❤
Took me a minute, too, but I like it! Wish we could get a better look at it. Never understood why females were the only ones allowed to have fun with fashion. I love seeing people in happy, colorful clothes. Especially when they look as comfy as Cole's dress. I'm far more comfy in a dress and half-slip than anything else, especially in summer. I overheat easily and a light cotton dress is cooler than shorts or pants.
So happy to see Oh Mary being such a huge success and Cole getting their long overdue recognition. The play is hilarious lol
He’s orange juice commercial is so funny 😂
It's silly fun; saw it both downtown and on Broadway -- the show in the larger theater doesn't lose its magic -- and that final scene is even grander. It's a great night out, and I'm so thrilled Cole and crew are getting their due. Go see it!
Cole's personality is so fun and infectious! I love it. Keep soaring!!
Congratulations to Cole on their success!
His or her. THEIR is a plural word. Stop letting the LGBT cult butcher the English language.
I adored him in Search Party and had seen him on social media for years and thought his comedy was daring and insanely hilarious. I wasn't sure if I could make it to the September showing but the fact that they extended it till November is beyond amazing and proof of the caliber of the show. And Whoopi's endorsement of the show is so so sweet and makes me wanna see it even more. Cant wait to see it
Cole goes by they/them pronouns
@@jackula123 OMG thank you for correcting me.
Cole is a tour de force I. the play. Their stamina and creativity are amazing. Keep going Cole!
So proud of you Cole! ❤
Cole Escola, Oregon is proud of you 🌲🌲🌲
I hope it tours! I'd love to see it in San Francisco!
the orange juice comercial is my fave
So happy for Cole.
I watched Search Party a few years ago and Cole occasionally just pops into my head. So pleased to see them doing well and I hope to see Oh, Mary in some form eventually!
Saw it yesterday! It was hysterical! Highly recommend ❤
I love them!
Dude is hilarious
I would kill to see Whoopi and Cole in a bed ridden focused play.
Been watching Cole for years, so happy they’re getting their big break finally
Whoopi is such a generous lady with the newcomers !
Cole has been acting on tv and in film since their first TV show in 2009. They are not a newcomer. ;)
@@beatnickblanketcompared to whoopi they are lol
@@beatnickblanket
I'm just learning of Cole now. Becoming mainstream is part of being a newcomer to the public in general who don't know the work.
I love Cole!!! They never cease to nearly give me a hernia from laughing.😂
Love Cole Escola!!!! From New Zealand
he is so funny and wish him continued success!!
Kelly mantle looking fresh
Cole I'm crying I'm so happy for your success
Whenever whoopi throws shade - You can always count on Sonny to pick up dat dag on MUG!!!! LOLL!!!
I saw it in previews and I'm so happy it got extended so I can come back and see it again! GO SEE THIS.
Love them! So richly deserved!
the view is the greatest broadway show still running
...most depressing.
americans are like "thank god i don't have to think about reality anymore, lest i get anxious and try to do something about it."
Ohh my goodness
So happy for Cole's success! ❤❤❤
❤ how Whoopi supports the arts!!!
I find myself very much enjoying Escola's sense of humor ... And so are the hosts!
I LOVE THIS! Cole is so talented
Just extend it to Feb 2025 please.
Ha ha! --😂stole my idea, yungin.- Oklahoma.🎉thanks! God bless!❤couch surfing did us good by you... keep writing. Have a cat who flush. 😂

Wishing you much success 😀
1000th LIKE
Ive never heard of him and Im mad I havent. He is hilarious and seems to have a lovely spirit about him. Im a fan.
Lots of Cole content right here on yt. I hadn't discovered them until about 3 months ago. Charmed and amused me greatly.
Ok..not one of the girls said " what the H are you wearing?" The whole insane look was wasted😂
He is hilarious
Cole's pronouns are they/them.
@@beatnickblanketAre your pronouns annoying & annoyed ?
@@beatnickblanketgood job buddy you schooled another one!
Be honest, NOBODY including you used they/them until a couple years ago. It's a recent fad.
How can I see this from Dubai 🤩
Come to New YOrk.
His jokes are not ha ha for me but i smiled because i liked his sense of humour and sarcasm.
❤ Cole Escola! ❤
Where have I've seen something similiar like this before??? "Will and Grace!!! Jack wrote a play on an episode about Lincoln being gay and Mary", lol!!
This is supposed too be funny😮
No. it's an interview, so it isn't supposed to be funny. It's spelled "to" not "too" by the way, but bless your heart for trying.
Why does Cole tell Joy you are aixk around 0:57? I dont get it. A joke like she's badass sick or what?
I will love to see this. He is funny. I can use a good laugh

You have an empty life playing the pronoun police on EVERY comment.
@@beatnickblanket I noticed you missed a couple!! Can't let them get away with it!! Keep up!!
The outfit! ❤
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Rochester NY waterfalls has a factory and a couple of buildings in the picture and you can get it on you tube They used these waterfalls because they are perfect for power plant and humans need water and to flush the bowl every where human is the water is polluted there minimum wage when they could of been vacation spot

shut it goldberg
Whoopi is hilarious, so no. don't shut it
@@Broadwaybuff-pi1qg is she though!??
Yes
@@Broadwaybuff-pi1qg you Sir are hilarious!
Me trying to figure out what is exactly going on with what he is wearing for the all interview lol
Coles shirt is ridiculous and distracting. Wtf
The fact he doesn't know his head goes through the hole?? Can't dress himself for national TV!
That's insane (in a good way), Whoopi making that offer to work with him. So glad Cole is getting his flowers!
Loved him in Girlboss!! He's hilarious. We gotta see this show!

Has anyone ever flew out of the west coast to see a Broadway show on the same day and then flew back home immediately?
I've taken 9-hour bus rides to New York to see a show I badly wanted to see, then turned around for the bus ride home.
I sure hope, not! There is actually something called _the carbon footprint_ ... 🤔
🤮🤮🤮🤮
How's middle school going?
The hairy chest though 😂😅
You guys are not convincing me so what about let someone else take your job and get on with your life.
I know the shirt is interesting and unique but I hate it.
Oh come on…. Really? Its so him
I don't get why you had to announce that. Could have commented something you DID like about the interview.
@@susisiebert5942 Cole's pronouns are they/them.
Knowing Cole they probably wore it that way as a choice. I'm guessing you're not "intended" to wear the peek-a-boo opening from the back as the collar and have the collar be on your chest. I love it :P
He's a comedian, plugging a riotous, gender-bending comedy.. Why would he come on in a three-piece suit?
Interesting that they bleeped out when Joy referred to Cole as “he” instead of “they”. I’ve never heard that before.
W I TH A F is this!!! 😮😮😂😂
A step forward.
An interview with a Broadway star.
An extremely gifted human satirist. Easy to see for those with discernment. They are brilliant.
She wanted me to be a successs with foodstamps but had a cat. 🎉
Did they intentionally cut the sound when Joy calls Cole "he" twice? It happened at around the 1 min mark.
In that case, they have my full respect ...
Do you believe in censorship over a pronoun fad that just started a couple years ago? The English language was butchered overnight.
I mean he has a penis right? Most he's do, females have vaginas, hermaphrodites have both. And I believe it might be possible to be born without reproductive organs but I don't feel like looking that up right now.. Any other things people like to call themselves is just ridiculous 😂
@@dsbm87 plus the hairy chest that it framed so nicely in the Avant garde blouse!.. it seems he doesn't seem to be able to dress himself properly!! I wonder if the shoes are on the right feet.
Why are you thinking about other people’s genitals? That’s so creepy.
How TF is this Show Still On??????????????
It helps when people like you keep clicking on it to watch their clips. Bless you.
@@Broadwaybuff-pi1qg True..... Sadly, i clicked on it, just to see how many subscribers it had////
@@Pacavelli You must have a lot of time on your hands.
@@Broadwaybuff-pi1qg go away
Fact Check on Sunny: In the comments by Sunny Hostin at the beginning of the show. She stated that “black women are the most educated demographic in our country”. That is a LIE.
Black or African Americans
Have the lowest educational attainment, with 39% of adults having postsecondary education degrees. In 2019, 23% of Black students had a postsecondary graduation.
Americans
Have the highest educational attainment of any race, with 66.5% of adults having postsecondary education degrees.
Stop the lies Sunny.
The view doesn’t have balanced conversations anymore.
Sunny has to stop beating the race drum. It is beginning to do more harm than good.
All they do is lie and virtual signal.Fakest people on the planet.This show is pure poison
@@carolirvine7663She has nothing else. her head is empty
Actually, it's not a lie. According to findings compiled in a study by the National Center For Education Statistics, Black women have been obtaining degrees at a consistently high rate for the last eight years and counting. Information collected about the higher education among African-Americans between 2009 and 2010 shows that Black women accounted for 68 percent of associate’s degrees, 66 percent of bachelor’s degrees, 71 percent of master’s degrees and 65 percent of doctorate degrees awarded to Black students during that time frame.

So messed up for joy to say you grew up in a dysfunctional family when his brother Kyle just recently died by suicide 😢😢😢😮😮
Why is that wrong?? Suicide doesn't make someone's family not dysfunctional. It's okay to be truthful and honest. It doesn't offend.
