You should watch the whole episode. No matter what Ted does, he manages to dig himself deeper and deeper. In fact, watch the whole series - there isn't a single weak episode.
It's like Fawlty Towers. You can't watch bits of the episode. It's the escalation leading to the final moment which is hilarious. That being when they are finally friends, Ted invites them into his home and it's covered with Nazi Propaganda.
Why does everyone from the U.S. have to analyse or look for a secret meaning in straight forward comedy. The comedy is set on a small isolated island off the coast of Ireland, hence, being told there is a China Town on the island is ridiculous to the English / Irish audience this comedy initially served. It also emphasised the parochial and backward nature of these communities, with there old fashioned attitudes and knowledge of all their neighbour's business. You need to see more Father Ted, which is about 3 priests living together, Dougal; the young simpleton priest, Ted; the middle aged priest and main character who really wants to be wealthy womanising egotist and Jack; the old foul mouthed drunken priest.
You'll come to realise/understand that many Americans tend to take apart humour and analyse the crap out of it, get very very technical, and not necessarily just enjoy it. It's just what they do.
I think it’s because Irish and British comedy is so very different from most US comedy. We understand it instinctively because we have grown up with it, but the Americans who haven’t watched it before, often don’t understand either the mind-set or the cultural references. It’s understandable really, and I say good for them for trying something new!
"I hear you're a racist now Father" is a quote that has lived rent free in my memory for over 25 years. I just say it randomly sometimes to this date. Father Ted was a show I watched religiously. No pun intended. Grew up watching it, not really getting the jokes, and still watch it now, knowing all the jokes. Loved it then, love it now.
There's another scene where Father Ted is standing at the window smiling to whoever's outside, with his arm raised, and there's a smudge on the window that looks like Hitler's moustache right on his face. Killingly funny.
The series is about three Irish Catholic priests living in a house on a tiny island and all are totally socially inept, which leads to a lot of hilarious confusion. In small remote small minded communities like the onerepresented here word spreads amazingly fast.
Having spent a number of years in Canada/North America, as a London east cockney I have never experienced such repression on comedy & free speech in all my life. We do not understand how lucky we are in the UK to have enjoyed the freedom of expression in comedy that allowed us to make fun of ourselves & others without fear of offending for so long. The USA is engulfed in a conundrum only they themselves can come to terms with. Britain has no such worries and should carry on as we are because if it's funny, it's funny. Humans are built to laugh & enjoy life. No matter what race or colour we are.
When ya'll get a First Amendment and/or Bill of Rights as we have in the USA, get back to me. Contrary to what MSM spews, we still have Free Speech over here. Moreso than any other Country, even England. You use a tiny, yet vocal minority.....we call em 'Snowflakes'......to condemn the whole Country??? I suggest you get out more.
@@snafubar5491 Try reading a book once in a while ( a rare concept for an American ) and you may find Great Britain's hold on Rights/Freedoms/Free speech is a tad older than the ones you took from us to write your Constitution. From Laws & Rights to abolishing slavery , entering wars to stop tyrants , America has always been late to the party. So I suggest visiting a place called a " Library " to educate yourself on reality , instead of hiding behind your flag screaming " USA USA USA ".
@@hiramabiff2017......Shame you haven't followed your own advice.....no??? We get that alot, folks not from here telling us how it is here. Silly Wrabbit. Still no Bill of Rights though, huh??? Your ilk always attempt to attack the person, ignore the facts. Yes, us Rebels whupped ya'lls arse....twice. Then saved ya'lls arse.....three times. If not for the USA, there would be no England. Shame ya'll don't have Free Press over there or you would know this.
Father Ted is my favourite comedy of all time. Unfortunately I went to a Catholic secondary school and to lighten the mood a number of us would quote lines from the show. The Bishop who loses his faith because of Dougal's doubts was good; I got detention for quoting the line saying organised religion is a load of rubbish. Going to a Christian school made me see all the hypocrisy of the church and Father Ted was the show that made fun of it all.
Since you like this one, I'll recommend "Are We The Baddies" by Mitchell and Webb. But if I can make a request in your Stand Up grouping, could you vary it a bit? Bring in an international flavor? There's comedy outside the U.S.. Steve Hughes is one of my favorites. Gays, Political Correctness, Offended, Live At The Apollo, are all pretty good. Great video and you two must be the cutest couple on UA-cam.
@@jonhelmer8591 If no one asks that about themselves the answer is probably, yes. They are the "Baddies". There is an old saying that goes, an unexamined life isn't worth living. How about your life Mr. Helmer. Are you the "baddie"? Are you the one that can only throughout disparaging, one-liners and clearly on a channel designed for joy and fun? And before you make the retort of, "Just sayin'.". I know you're just sayin'. The question is as to why. I can let you know that as an ex-soldier, many don't ask. It goes with the pros in the old Charge of the Light Brigade poem, "Ours Is Not To Ask Or Reason Why. Ours Is But To Live And Die." Many a soldier takes that quite seriously, to respect the chain of command. I served the U.S. for about 11 years. I've been on my fair share of battlefields for the U.S. and I didn't start to question till I became an old cramugen who saw too much of war (for one country). It wasn't till my last battlefield in Iraq, that I questioned why and was ashamed when I had to answer, yes. I was the baddie. That's why, after my three back to back to back tours there the first question came as a joke almost. The question of, if I'm the common denominator, perhaps I'm the problem. The U.S. maintains a military presence in most of the Worlds countries and is actively at war with about 40% of them. Yeah, when I came to realize that my country was at war with close to half of the world, my questioning stopped. I left the U.S. and now I'm Greek. So, with all the evidences available to you for review, Russian soldiers are the 'Baddies' for you. Or are you just wishing to express your feelings of loyalty to media? Was Clinton or Yeltsin the Baddies when they worked to get Putin installed as Prime Minister after Yeltsin could no longer do it. Were the Clintons the baddies for letting Russians use the Clinton Foundation as one of the world's greatest money laundering fronts? Was, Obama, Trump and Biden the "Baddies" for sponsoring a Coup De Ta in Ukrania, toppling its government, and giving arms to ultra-nationalist gangs like C14 and the Azov Battalion? Honestly, if I was a Russian soldier dealing with the moral question of 'Invasion of a Country', I'd probably have to tell myself (with all of that that I just mentioned), "It's better to fight them over there than to fight them over here.". But regardless of all that Mr. Helmer, the most important question still remains; Do you like Mitchell and Webb? I think they're funny.
@@snackandreact No problem at all. I hope you enjoy them all. And really no prob. for the kind words, they're just a reflection of what you put out. Thank you.
I really don't understand why someone would be racist acting up, for the fun of it. It's stereotype and so what. Dave Chappelle do it all the time imitating white people and it's hilarious. Louis C.K. does a ton of voices and it's funny as hell. Who really thinks that this is real racism, it's insane.
@@jacksonbrown4112 - Nobody is really offended by this. If you get offended by it, it's because there a large part of truth in how it's sound and looks. Accent exist and it's beautiful. What the fuck have we become ?
I grew up with father ted it is will always be very special to me. The creator of the show also created the IT crowd and co-created black books my personal favourite.
Lol. Great reaction. Thanks guys! Father Ted is an Irish sitcom produced in the UK. It was back in n the 1990s so there was no way it would have gotten made in Ireland. Thanks again and Lá Fhéile Pádraig! 🇮🇪💚☘☘☘💚🇮🇪 Happy St Patrick's day!
I came across this clip last week and starting watching the show (it's on Amazon Prime in the US so you may need a VPN if you have prime in another country). One of the funniest things I've ever seen :D
It's British humour (albeit this is Irish). We have the ability to laugh at ourselves. It's only when we laugh at others are we lambasted. Not many people get our humour, as harmless as its intention is
This is definitely Irish humour. British and Irish humour are very compatible, we both 'get' each other's jokes (with the possible exception of Mrs Brown's Boys, which both me and my Irish GF found embarrassingly unfunny), but Irish humour tends more towards the absurd.
F..k all British about Father Ted, Irish humour is a lot more edgy than Brit humour. Only Fools & Horses my all time favourite but could never joke about racism for example.
Most Americans do not really understand the comedy, unfortunately. It starts with Ted telling Dougal to lighten up, and him with a lampshade over his head!! To think there is a Chinatown on an Island of the coast of Ireland. How the two cranks instantly return to normal conversation when they start to talk to each other. Also, you would have to watch the full episode to get the extent of the Irish humour.
If your not fully Irish like myself it's going to be hard to understand Father Ted's humor, I'm from the North of Ireland and watched this show thousand s of times, such a pitty Dermot had to go because they would have made so many more episodes but when he died the whole show died unfortunately 😥
Man Father Ted was such a good comedy back in the day. If there is one part of the show you should definitely watch it's when all the priests are stuck in the lingerie section of a shopping mall it's hilarious.
As has been said, it is a comedy and the characters spend the entire time poking fun at themselves, the church / religion in general and old Irish culture. It is really funny, well written and the acting is spot on. For a take on Northern Ireland have a look at Derry Girls, now in its last season is excellent.
Im black and i traced my roots back to England 1623 alston.. I think the British accent is cool.. But yeah your correct in these sad times we need a bit humor..
@@keithbrown7681 I wasn't specifically meaning this sit com. All sit coms are comedy and nothing more. I know father Ted is from the south, but we Brits do similar comedy...at least we used to before the woke idiots took over. The Irish get more than their fair share of piss taking and impressions. It's all just fun!
First time visitor. Liked vid when the pringles top came off. Hesitated at the subscribe button when the Lemon cake came out. Pressed subscribe when told it was a protein bar to get gains! 😂
I love how Craggy Island is so small, in the time it takes Ted to put on his hay and coat to leave, everyone on the island is now talking about Ted being a racist.
"i heard you're a racist now" hahahaha! omg i couldn't stop laughing....who said that.... EVERYONE! hahaha! and this is why you should never want to live in a small town....omg too funny! is it true though that if you make a racial joke, you're a racist???
to answer your question, no it doesn't, as long as you're aware of the fact that the joke is racist and that you use sufficient context to make it clear you're making a joke and don't in fact agree or support the stereotype of the joke.
@@rogoth01themasterwizard11 Sounds like too much effort - once you provide all of that the joke probably wont be funny anymore and there will still be someone to declare you as racist anyway and then the burden will be on you to prove you are not a racist which you cant do.
For people talking about racism and laughing at it really don't understand what this scene is about. If you were Irish you would get it, It would take about a 4 page essay to explain it. But as a quick explanation, nobody is laughing at his impression of a Chinese man. There's a few funny things Irish people would find funny. 1. The way people in Ireland find out everything about someone so quickly, especially in rural Ireland. 2. The way everybody listens to the local priest no matter what gibberish he asks of people they will start doing it, even if they don't believe it there self. 3. You need to watch the whole episode for this one, but the way Irish people want to be seen in a certain way in there local communities, and will do anything to keep that. Example: when ted does something terrible and racist and is caught doing it he tries everything with the Chinese to try and convince them he's not a racist and tries his best to make them feel welcome in the community, but no matter what he does he fails, that's the funny part. 4.' China Town in craggy Island'' if you don't live in Ireland you won't find this funny. But if you do you will understand that the idea of a China town in the middle of rural Ireland is hilarious, because there is probably only 100 people living in the town.
The rest of this episode Father Ted tries to convince the Chin family he's not a racist, it goes from bad to worse and he ends up with a rant that makes him look like Hitler, Father Ted was so funny and usually took comedy awards in the UK for its funny scripts and acting.
Father Ted is surreal comedy. It's hilarious that Father Ted would be doing an impression of Chinese and that there is a group of Chinese outside his window. This is on a small island off the west coast of Ireland so the whole thing is ridiculously funny. You're taking it a bit too seriously.
That is *absolutely* how small towns work - they're your neighbors, so you pretty much *have* to get along with them, even if they say reprehensible shit.
You need to check out, Jim Jefferies story about when he took a friend with MD to see a prostitute. It's a slow start, but Oooooooooooooooooh so worth it. & is actually a very endearing story. Great reactions (as always). Much love from us here in the UK
Ahh, Racism is the thing now. I am a white English person, my family is originally from Ireland so I am a proper racist. I even have white friends and everything. I put the bins out on time and so I am a true right-wing blaggard; plus I go out to work every day so that also makes a male Chauvinist sod. This is liquid gold for an English person, it is literally a piss-take and we love that. That is why we have TV comedies that the extreme left are trying to shut down. However, it remains funny. Father Ted, and that particular episode is really funny and worth watching all the way through.
I know this clip has more views than every other combined but I really do insist you watch the full episode. Have you ever seen a tiny mouse riding a tiny bicycle through a room of people surround by Nazi memorabilia? Just the absurdity of that question has me in giggles.
You should watch the whole episode. No matter what Ted does, he manages to dig himself deeper and deeper. In fact, watch the whole series - there isn't a single weak episode.

He's just doing way too much 😆
"I'm not a Nazi, Nazi's dress in black and tell people what to.......

Omg father Ted was a life saver on a Friday night when I was 15. Had to be in by 9pm so this was my cheer up
I can see why!

I know father Ted is from the south, but we Brits do similar comedy...at least we used to before the woke idiots took over. The Irish get more than their fair share of piss taking and impressions. It's all just fun!

Watch the whole show and he digs an even deeper grave
I can imagine!
Vicar of Dibley is another similar TV show like this they are both great.
This episode has other clips, and it just gets better.
How sweet are you together
I love how Craggy Island is so small, in the time it takes Ted to put on his hay and coat to leave, everyone on the island is now talking about Ted being a racist.
I'm here for it Big Dawg!!! Lol
You need to see the full episode. It only gets worse with the perfectly square patch of dirt on the window 😅😅
I love Father Ted, if ever you're feeling a bit low watch it and I guarantee you will have a good laugh x
"i heard you're a racist now" hahahaha! omg i couldn't stop laughing....who said that.... EVERYONE! hahaha! and this is why you should never want to live in a small town....omg too funny! is it true though that if you make a racial joke, you're a racist???
to answer your question, no it doesn't, as long as you're aware of the fact that the joke is racist and that you use sufficient context to make it clear you're making a joke and don't in fact agree or support the stereotype of the joke.
@@rogoth01themasterwizard11 Sounds like too much effort - once you provide all of that the joke probably wont be funny anymore and there will still be someone to declare you as racist anyway and then the burden will be on you to prove you are not a racist which you cant do.
For people talking about racism and laughing at it really don't understand what this scene is about. If you were Irish you would get it, It would take about a 4 page essay to explain it. But as a quick explanation, nobody is laughing at his impression of a Chinese man. There's a few funny things Irish people would find funny. 1. The way people in Ireland find out everything about someone so quickly, especially in rural Ireland.
2. The way everybody listens to the local priest no matter what gibberish he asks of people they will start doing it, even if they don't believe it there self.
3. You need to watch the whole episode for this one, but the way Irish people want to be seen in a certain way in there local communities, and will do anything to keep that. Example: when ted does something terrible and racist and is caught doing it he tries everything with the Chinese to try and convince them he's not a racist and tries his best to make them feel welcome in the community, but no matter what he does he fails, that's the funny part.
4.' China Town in craggy Island'' if you don't live in Ireland you won't find this funny. But if you do you will understand that the idea of a China town in the middle of rural Ireland is hilarious, because there is probably only 100 people living in the town.
Great reaction and you two should really react to this series! That was only the appetiser for this episode 😉🤣
Watch the whole episode...it's amazing!
The rest of this episode Father Ted tries to convince the Chin family he's not a racist, it goes from bad to worse and he ends up with a rant that makes him look like Hitler, Father Ted was so funny and usually took comedy awards in the UK for its funny scripts and acting.
Yin Dynasty !
First timer here visiting your channel) great reaction and looking forward to watching more of your content
Welcome!!
Ha .... nobody mentions that square piece of dirt on the window..... becomes VERY important later on...
Pity Dermot Morgan (Ted) died so young. Loved Father Ted.
Father Ted is surreal comedy. It's hilarious that Father Ted would be doing an impression of Chinese and that there is a group of Chinese outside his window. This is on a small island off the west coast of Ireland so the whole thing is ridiculously funny. You're taking it a bit too seriously.
Brilliant 🤣🤣🤣
The thing with Fr Dougal is that he is supposed to be the brainless one but he doesn't find the racism funny.
he would have told them to lighten up lol
If you think his reputation is beyond repair you need to watch the whole episode to see just how bad it gets.....
That is *absolutely* how small towns work - they're your neighbors, so you pretty much *have* to get along with them, even if they say reprehensible shit.
Watch rest of episode he got the chinese aka Mr. Yin drunk and it worked out ok. Except for Father Jack at the end...
Rip dermot Morgan 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
You need to check out, Jim Jefferies story about when he took a friend with MD to see a prostitute. It's a slow start, but Oooooooooooooooooh so worth it. & is actually a very endearing story.
Great reactions (as always). Much love from us here in the UK
You this this clip is funny wait till the end of the episode
Very funny show
3:19 without spoiling the episode, he makes it worse.
Ahh, Racism is the thing now. I am a white English person, my family is originally from Ireland so I am a proper racist. I even have white friends and everything. I put the bins out on time and so I am a true right-wing blaggard; plus I go out to work every day so that also makes a male Chauvinist sod.
This is liquid gold for an English person, it is literally a piss-take and we love that. That is why we have TV comedies that the extreme left are trying to shut down. However, it remains funny. Father Ted, and that particular episode is really funny and worth watching all the way through.
You have to the watch that show it’s amazing especially father jack 😂
Oh please COMEDY NO MORE NO LESS
In this day in age all you have to say is
I identify as Chinese problem solved
😂😂
I know this clip has more views than every other combined but I really do insist you watch the full episode.
Have you ever seen a tiny mouse riding a tiny bicycle through a room of people surround by Nazi memorabilia?
Just the absurdity of that question has me in giggles.
The best comedy show
