I worked in the film industry in camera for 24 yrs. We (the camera crew) became so jaded over time, but when a guy like Bill came on a show it would be so refreshing. They'd always act like they shouldn't be there, like somebody made a mistake and they'd spend the whole day making the crew laugh. I love seeing people like Bill succeed.
Nobody cares if you are jaded. That's your fkng job. And salty crew is hindering the performances of others.
@@Woodsaras you are a moron. You must watch a lot of tv and idolize actors waiting around trying to get their autographs. News flash a large majority of these actors are self righteous arrogant, donkeys who think the world revolves around them. The crew secretly despise these people. A guy like Bill makes working 13 hrs a day a joy.
"We.."
So classless one you got bored I see.
Figured you'd troll the video.
So whats next?
@@USA92 I worked with a tight group of camera people. So yah WE. If you knew anything about film sets the crews are close. And we are professionals who have low tolerance for arrogance. Having guys like Bill, or the SCTV people made our days fly by. It's always fun being their audience.
@@USA92 what does this comment even mean ? 😂 you’d pick a fight in a phone booth wouldn’t ya ?
Hader's impressions are so uncanny -- he just becomes the person, and he switches them on and off so effortlessly. And his laughter is always adorably contagious.
He puts in the work to get the little nuances that really sell a good impression, like he doesn't just say "Deh's a bamb in derr," at the end his "there" sounds more like "deauUhhre," like 4-5 extra sounds to trail it, I would never think to do that
Couldn’t agree more and I’m usually harsh on impressions but his are spot on. You’d wonder where he produces the voices from despite the obvious. 😅 Such a nice guy too, so humble yet so talented!
The squint and tiny head bob before he says "I love your work", even the blinking has hints of Cruise.
no
I've never seen anyone else do an Alan Alda impression. He's absurdly talented.
Bill is one of my favorite entertainers. Absolutely hilarious and seems so genuine. The guy's got range, too. If you've not seen his show, "Barry", you're missing out.
Oh, yeah, super great show!
Hank is so frikkin' brilliant.
I LOVE that show
Spoiler Alert Do not Read if you haven't seen last Barry Season Finale:
I'M pretty worried about our boy Barry I don't want to see him in jail. 😞
@@richarquis Fuches carries a lot of comedy weight, also.
@@mediocremaiden8883 I don't want Barry in the same joint as Fuches. 'o'
He even gets the body language right for his Tom Cruise impression
I cannot stop smiling the instant Bill opens his mouth.
Me too. I love this guy
He’s so freakin adorable
OMG his mouth is so underrated, arguably so literally shockingly iconic
I'm a 75-year-old lady and believe it or not, I just discovered Bill Hader 2 weeks ago. Let's face it, I'm not exactly his target audience demographic, so it's not surprising that I would not know him like my daughter (who's Bill's age) does. But I was so charmed by a video including Bill that fell into my lap that I've been binge watching every YT video I can find with Bill in it. His impressions/comedy are so impressive and he's become my go-to when I'm having a tough day. Wow, what an incredibly gifted talent!
Yes!! You go girl!! He’s hysterical and so talented. Every time I’m feeling down I watch so I can laugh myself to sleep. ❤
Yay!!! Cool!
Awesome man! He is RAD!
He seems to be a real sweetheart too!
He's fantastic in every movie because he loves his job.
I’ve been lucky enough to have looked after Bill on two different movies.
I can honestly say he is hands down as nice and genuine as you would believe.
He never fails to entertain with non-stop anecdotes. His SNL career has given him lots of celebrity comics fodder
A real gem !!
Which begs the question Why would he spend once ounce of time and energy befriending someone like seth rogan.
@@notdreadyet33 Seriously. Seth is such an entitled, hypocritical, and insufferable human being.
@@notdreadyet33 Power?
@@notdreadyet33 I wholeheartedly agree with you on that one!
Looked after? Like a babysitter?
Hader KILLED it. And you could see David knew it from the first moment.
It's mathematically impossible to not love Bill Hader.
It's mathematically impossible not to like this comment
And yet. I don't like him. I don't hate him but I don't like him. I think he's a really bad actor and I don't get how can anybody think otherwise
Not an evil bone in that beautiful man's body, just funny bones.
Try using a calculator, lots of us find him boring. I'm one of many people who used to watch him on SNL but now feels like 'I would swear he was funny at one time, but maybe I'm wrong about that'. Some people are in love with him but there's no need to mistake that for him being universally beloved. He's like a funny high school kid... like, ok, that's nice, you won the hometown talent show in 2005. Funny little self-conscious faces and voices, good for you. SNL is very good at making the audience confused as to whether they think somebody is actually funny or just so cute that you'll watch them brush their teeth and laugh about it.
Easily one of the funniest guys in the business. He's got such a dorky, lovable quality about him, too. He deserves every bit of success for his skills.
-come over and see-‘The Audio Recording Where
Amber Heard
Almost Died’
Exactly! I love how goofy he is here. I was part of a small group in high school that referred to itself as the "Nerd Herd". I could have seen him being a part of our group.
Thanks reddit
Cringe comment 😅😂 marry him why dont ya
Wow, amazing to see a host actually let a guest tell a whole story without interrupting.
Agreed!
Looking at you, Jimmy Fallon!!!!!!
[Even for guests I really like I can no longer stand hearing Fallon's interview 'skills'.]
Yes, definitely the Golden Age of Late Night TV, from Letterman in the '80's Conan in the '90's all through the middle part of the last decade (plus Craig Ferguson and others) up till they all left in the middle of the last decade. Since late night TV went infantile, I don't even know anyone who watches any of these shows. I don't even know what demographic these shows even play to.
The anecdote about the door opening w/ Arnold banging on it is hilarious!
"A host" A?? host.
@@Geert365 what are u on about brah
I have never heard Dave laugh so hard than here, Bill is a wonderful story teller
When Leno first showed up on Letterman it was magic.
@@BruceCSnow im sure their relationship bloomed into something perfect with no hitches or issues down the line
@@pemo2676and neither of them blamed Conan
@@ordinarytadpole1478 lol!
Letterman's laugh warms the cockles of this old chunk o' coal's heart. ♥️
Hader is the best. He had Dave cough-laughing, he's so naturally hilarious.
As no one in particular, I was around Tom off and on for a couple years back around the time that he was forming, and then had just formed, Cruise/Wagner. I can assure you Tom is literally like this with everyone. If he runs into the janitor in the basement, he is amazed and walks away knowing the guys name, and having found out something about him. If people are light bulbs, the dude was somehow constantly a 400 watt light bulb.
I had the chance to work on set with Cruise and it's just a good rap, always kind and enthusiasts, he is aware of his status so he makes always effort to give some "Tom Cruise" to everyone.
@@yoshimitsu1977 Yeah. Too bad he's a wacko scientologist who hasn't seen his daughter in 8 years. 😒
Bill is a gift guest. He also has stories to tell on any talk show which the audience loves. Norm Macdonald was like that and so is Chris Rock.
Comedians are known to be some of the best talk show guests. They have gags and anecdotes for almost any topic and if not they’re usually good at ad-libbing due to their quick wittedness. Plus unlike some actors/musicians/writers they rarely take themselves too seriously so can laugh at themselves which makes the host look good.
Bill is so fresh out of the gate. He laughed so hard at everything. Classic!
Ha! This was a fun clip. Bill was adorable. He made Dave laugh and called Dave "buddy"! Thanks for sharing this.
I wanted to see if anyone commented on the many “Buddy”s. Kind of an odd thing to call Dave but he probably didn’t feel comfortable calling him Dave or Mr. Letterman
@@hickorydragon8114 I think it was a nervous tick of his
It's just part of his everyday speech. You can hear him say it in many interviews with others too. Pretty wholesome honestly
Hader is an absolute gem. I hope his career beyond Barry is beyond incredible.
I find myself rewatching this about every six months. Never gets old. 😂👍
Thats a good idea!
The world needs more Bill Hader, especially in sketch comedy.
I absolutely adore Bill Hader. Not only is he one of the funniest guys around, but he is also sweet AND cute. The whole package.
I love how he kept saying "thanks Buddy"... you know he was super nervous...
Hader is a great, natural storyteller; I love how delighted Letterman is with these stories. He is genuinely loving it.
Bill Hader is consistently funny on any talk show ESPECIALLY with Conan or Dave.
Dave??
Norms show too. He was earnest. Is
He’s great with Seth Meyers, because they are friends, and it’s shows
@@namansinghbisht1181 The host of the show this clip is from. Dave Letterman.
@@jaysunbrady short for David... Oh 😂 Thanks man 🤟
I love Bill Hader. One of the funniest people I've ever seen. And his impressions are spot on. Seems like a really nice guy too. Great video.
Part of it is his infectious laugh. In fact, he kills so often, when he hosts gigs, that Stage 4 at NBC is dedicated to him.
Bro his laugh is contagious I kept smiling watching this
Same
His nervous laughter is so sincere.
Bill Hader will be remembered as on of the all time greats. Mark my words.
Words: marked
You are right. Also I have not heard that "mark my words" phrase in a long time except when I say a variation of it often. My dad always said "write it down in you're daybook" he had a ton of those.
Bill held his own with Cruise. Just as funny if not funnier.
“Welcome to the goodie room”
“Swingin past your knees”.
"You spank that ass Les!"
Yes!!
Hader is talk show comedy gold!!
Bill is such a good impressionist but also so down to earth: «Thanks buddy».
His stories and impressions are great but it’s his youthful silly energy that is really infectious.
I think Bill Hader really cracked up David Letterman! Great stuff to hear Dave's belly laugh.
So young, so funny. It must feel amazing to make Dave laugh like that.
Dude has an amazing ability to turn reactions into success
Bill Hader really cracks ME up!
Not to mentiom himself.
Robert Downey Jr should have received an oscar for Tropic of Thunder.
Nah, the makeup team should have won an Oscar.
They rarely give it to black actors
@@micahclawrence This comment is amazing
@@micahclawrenceGold!😂
@@micahclawrence 👏👏👏👏
Bill seems like such a genuinely sweet and super funny dude
I love how much Dave enjoyed him
I’m glad you said that because I totally agree. When the host is having us much fun as the audience, you know that guest is good.
This is one of those guys who we want to buy a beer, wind him up and let him go. Also, one half of the best comedy police officer duo ever.
That's a tough one, because there are so many great buddy cop comedies out there. And I can't think of the one that has Bill Hader starring in it. For all his talent.
@@Yanni75 It's Superbad. He doesn't star in it, but he and Rogan are amazing in it.
@@Yanni75 Yeah he and Rogen were great as unhinged cops in Superbad but if it wasn't for that whole Judd Apatow clique I don't think he'd even be in many movies. Definitely wouldn't put him in best comic duos of all time because of one movie.
look how cute and young he is here 🥰 when bill laughs, I think all of our worries and fears disappear for a sec
It's hard not to like someone who is so modest. People like that are such a refreshing change.
I like how Dave refers to SNL as "the Saturday Night Live program" as if it's this struggling new show he's just heard of
Well you’re half right… it’s def not new
It's a struggling ancient show. I wish someone would put an end to its misery.
He's insulting anything that is associated with NBC .
@@YesYouAreAbsolutelyCorrect this video is from 15 years ago
@MyName42 yeah, it wasn't that bad then. It was just bad.
Bill Hader is so goofy, I absolutely adore him 😍
He doesn't seem to have the enormous ego of his contemporaries. Top guy. 👌
He is unbelievable I cannot miss any of his interviews and his impersonations 🙏🙏🙏😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
I always laugh so hard that my abs hurt while watching him. He is so damn funny. Luv him
Bill Hader is so talented and lovely. Had me laughing. His impressions are spot on.
Bill's laugh is contagious !
What a great storyteller. Wonderful
I was rewinding and watching things twice here. This is so good.
But the humility makes this guy so pleasant.
Love me some Hader any day! He and Armisen are the funniest guys ever!😂
I love Bill Haders manner, so easy going and funny but also his “hey I’m just happy to be here” kinda way about him. Like he went to bed one night and woke up famous the next day!!!
So good to finally watch the whole clip! The Collateral Damage story was amazing!
Bill is amazing
Gotta love Bill Harder. It's 2008 and my man is dressed up and has his hair done like he's going to an audition for She's All That 🤣
Not that often that Dave would laugh that hard; just shows how brilliantly funny Bill Hader is
Love his impressions and laugh. The best!
Love that guy Bill Haider he’s full of life,love his laugh 😂 👏👍😆
Bill is just so adorable! And hilarious 😂😊 I wish he was like my little brother or cousin or somethin'.... It would be so great to just get to hang out with him, soak up that energy and humor. He's a gem ❤
That guy is so funny. I hope he goes far he deserves it. Full of talent ❤
Bill Hader as an adult: adult understanding with a teenager enthusiasm.
His attention to detail is amazing. When showing the doors closing in slow motion, they bounce like they do in reality.
My God, this guy's hilarious! I haven't laughed this much since I don't know when!
One of the coolest, if not The coolest interview I’ve ever seen
man this guy is the king of anecdotes and impressions! 😂❤
Bill Hader is such a great storyteller, had me laughing out loud 🤣
You get so used to him as bill hader the actor you forget his impressions from his early days, this video had me crying laughing with reviewing the door in slow motion
If this is his real personality…he’s even more likable than I thought possible lol
I laughed out loud at the slow mo Arnold. Absolutely hilarious! Hader is a treasure.
this guy is great, his laugh is very genuine.
Just saw Bill talking for the first time in my life , I mean being himself, this guy awesome funny . ❤
This guy is really funny and has great talent - - he really tells funny stories and does good impersonations
'one door opens.....the same door closes'
Love, love, love Bill Hader. He is so naturally funny and adorable.
I love Bill Hader!
If you close your eyes, Letterman almost sounds like Kermit.
Bill deserves every cent he makes, the guy LOVES to laugh!!!
2:23 Checks with agent to make sure your still in the green on the Tom jokes.
You know if you're in a funk and Bill Harder is one of your friends, he's the first on the list you're gonna call to get out of that funk.😎
Bill's "Dateline" bit is hilarious!
Bill Hader's laugh is right up there with Lisa Kudrow's and Levar Burton's. 100% infectious!
Haders gonna LOVE! :D Unerring ear for impressions. Rare to see Letterman bust a gut laughin'. Great clip!
This is fantastic!! Also, Bill giggling at his own impressions. 🌟 😅
I was giggling out loud with delight at the fantastic Bill Hader when I came across your comment, ha. Checked your profile and just wanted to say I love some of your musical playlist choices. That Rise Up Shepherds version is a great find and very special, and Penny and Sparrow are just so interesting and unique. Also, that Wesley playlist is the oddest, weirdest thing, kinda like a UA-cam video acid trip. Oh! And I just noticed it includes My Friend the Witch Doctor! I have not heard that in at least five decades I'm sure, wow. Oo e oo ah ah! More giggles, heh. Thanks Natalie, have a great day.
Even though they're laughing at him. Tom Cruise sounds like a great guy. Like a real life Chris Trager.
May I ask who is Chris Trager.
Oh and I degree with your comment. And I'm happy to know this... I wasn't sure after seeing him in a few early interviews but it's clear to me now!
I don't know if I've EVER heard David laugh that hard before. Wow. Good stuff.
i love him, he's one of my favorite comedians
This guy and Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder was awesome.
Tom isn’t the only one he cracks up!
I love the Stones song at Bill's outro!
I have loved Bill Hader since the first time i ever saw him. It was on SNL, he was doing the Italian talk show guy. I laughed so hard the neighbors next door pounded on the wall!
He’s a terrific talk show guest
We all wish we could live each day as excited as Tom Cruise. Tropic Thunder was his umpteenth movie, and he's still stoked. Even excited at the premiere. Can't believe he got to do the movie.
He’s such a damn cutie omg. What a cutie. His smile is so beautiful
He's so brilliant and likeable at the same time.
Bill Hader makes everything funny.
Thank you for the endless love and support you have always given me. I am forever grateful. I really appreciate your unconditional love for me... Where are you looking from?
That was great. Hader is hilarious.
Such a likeable fellow. Love him in all his movies.
Hader comes across as such a sweetheart.
Bill Hader is the goat of all impressionists and by far my favorite. An amazing story teller 🐐😂
He does the best Conan O’Brien impression.
He does goat impressions to ?
