- American Reacts to Bottom - Ultraviolence
In this video I react once again to the show Bottom. These are funny clips of ultraviolence that occurred on the show. Adrian Edmondson and Rik Mayall created and starred in the stage and subsequent tv showing of Bottom.

Rik mayall was a force of nature, when he passed away it felt like I lost a childhood friend
I full on grieved. It felt bizarrely personal.
Same here! It was strangely personal. It took me a long while to watch anything with him in it
Only celebrity i was really upset to lose
I still get that feeling of loss anytime i see a clip of Rik... usually followed by a lot of laughter... such a legend R.I.P
I cried when he died! i’m crying now thinking about it! I love Rik Mayall, he was a genius! The world is shittier without him!
No-one in the world does comedy violence better than Ric and Ade - RIP Ric - taken far too early
Yeah RIP Rick, what a legend 🙏
Rik had genuine talent and charisma. Plus of course an ego the size of a small moon, but on him it looked good.
Ade got stuck on his window ledge on sunday had to be rescued by the fire brigade
thats whats good about him ,1st thing he did wa take the piss out himself on twitter,top bloke.
Honestly find bottom live
@@clairdavies9358 guest house paradiso and bottom live. Hope you have all their magic stuff like me.
RIP Rik. Ade Edmonton commented on his early passing during his eulogy at the funeral and finished up by saying “Selfish bastard!” Rik wouldn’t have had it any other way.😂
Have you ever seen the video of ade performing with his band "bad shepherds" about after rik died? His voice is breaking as he talks about it, really sad
I saw Rik Mayal twice on stage. He was telling a joke which went like " I suppose you think I'm a bit of a wanker", and I shouted out " you're a complete one". After a long pause he shouted "well it takes one to be one". That is my claim to heckling one of the best comedians of my generation. Bless his soul.
Bottom is not just a TV show, its a way of life. You should watch the full episodes pure gold.
@Rinty Pro indy I agree, Bottom, Red dwarf and Blackadder. Three shows that I still watch regularly 👍👍👍👍👍
I loved bottom growing up (!!)
@@johnnydoyle3808 All three stand the test of time & rewatchability
@@Paul_1971 I still watch all these on a regular basis
Young Ones, darling we are the Young Ones
Bottom is just one of the best, surrealist comedies of all time. The over the top violence, the tragic characters, it's as much performance art as comedy.
It's not really surreal. The League of Gentlemen is surreal. Bottom is just gloriously silly.
@@sandersson2813 I would agree with that statement lol
@@sandersson2813 Bottom is much funnier
@@logicalnetwork1611 Agreed.
Bottom: Live is the best in my opinion because you get to see them fuck up on stage and improv it at the same time 😂
Sorry to burst you bubble, but I went and saw them live, afterwards I saw the live video of them putting on the same performance but at a different venue. Same "fuck ups" same "improv". Think about it, these two were ultimate professionals, they didn't do fuck ups.
@@KernowWarrior I need to see proof of this 😆 it could be that they generally mess they same bits up. Live shows aren't easy afterall
Went to see them in Nottingham Brilliant
@@MaNNeRz91 I'm not sure how to provide proof but I went to see hooligans island (live 3) and the 'mistakes' were also the same as on the dvd which was recorded at a different venue. The main one I remember is the 'hidden cave/Eddie's bar' and Richie finds it early but there were others.
@@MaNNeRz91 I must admit I did feel a bit cheated when I saw the video after. The "fuck ups" were word for word, the prop fails were identical. Its a acknowledgement to their craft that the "fuck ups" were so believable as fuck ups. As I said they were masters at their craft, they didn't do fuck ups, unless they were scripted. Watching them live on stage was one of the best nights i'v had.
Total “Tom and Jerry” violence and I love it! Geniuses, both of them❤️
Rik and Ade were such geniuses at physical comedy
My sons kept nagging me to watch this show and eventually I gave in and suddenly I was hooked. I'm now in my 60's and still find this stuff hilarious. Two comedy geniuses!
Some of my best childhood memories are from watching bottom with my parents, all three of us absolutely crying our eyes out laughing.
I miss those days.
Richie & Eddie = best thugs in the world
Who do you think you are, Mr 55p?
@@rocknrollnobody where's the rest of it?
But Rick and vivian started it 😁👍
@@rocknrollnobody no I’m a doctor.... now BUGGER ORF!!
British Violence Eddie, best in the world
The dangerous brothers, The young ones, Bottom, Filthy rich and catflap, guest house paradiso all great Rik and Ade related, all similar style of comedy
Was going to point him in that direction?
Don’t forget about the comic strip . My fav was a fistful of travellers cheques, brilliant🙂
The best Rik Mayall comedy of all was without Ade though: The New Statesman.
Filthy Rich was a bit of a damp squid
@@sonanderson6351 I agree; filthy rich & catflap was really shit. The only remotely good bit was when Midge Ure made a cameo, and even then they almost ruined it by mocking his name. It was Ben Elton at his worst, full of too much political overtones and smugness and virtue signalling.
The gas man came to read the meter but it read zero because they had plumbed into next doors gas.
Was the guys name Rottweiler or something. I remember they peeked under the covers to get a look at his Mrs snatch 🤣🤣🤣
@@neilmclean4439 yeah rottwieller . the brilliant Brian Glover !
That’s odd it reads 0 0 .. 0 0 … 0 0 …. very odd
We don't use gas , because we don't know what it is
@@ashTHFCley 🤣
Greetings from Sweden.
They are hilarious and priceless.
I watched every season and episode back in the 90:s.
I never get tired of watching Bottom. It's one of those shows you can watch again and again. Even though you know what's coming 😂
Tell me more old bag…😂
@@willpemberton6823 for 5p your future's gonna look pretty bleak mate 😜
Cross my palm with silver.🙂
I watched this over and over from about the age of 8, I'm now 36 and it still cracks me up. The one where they try and kill the burglar with tea, laced with rat poison 😄
"Elm tea! The gypsies swear by it"
"I bet they do i bet they say what the bloody hell is this!!"
Love that episode
@@lea6555 🤣🤣
Bottom was such a big part of my week on TV as a kid.
Right! Swimming on Friday after school, fish and chips for tea with crystal maze at 6 then counting down the clock till 9 for Bottom. Oh to be a child again.
Oh yes! I was about 12 and it was Bottom, Red Dwarf, Frasier, who's line is it anyway and then the word. When Friday night TV was great!
These shows had me howling with laughter. RIP Rick Mayall
18 episodes and 5 live shows. absolutely the best show of all time
Bottom is up there with the best of them. Rik is my all time comedy hero. So sad he left us so young. Thanks for this video 🇬🇧💙
The full scene of them playing chess is absolutely hilarious, one of my favourite scenes in the entire show.
If you get a chance, watch some of their live stage shows or clips of them going off script during the live shows. Absolutely genius comedy work 🤣🤣🤣
One of the greatest duo's in British comedy 😝
I value this show more than I value most of my family
God you're weired aren't you I mean you're really weired.... 😂🤣
Ohhh sod off you great fat git! It’s me who’s just lost 10 thousand quid!
Well half of it was mine! IT BLOODY WELL WAS NOT!
RIP Rik. Rik and Ade were the very best! You need to watch the tv series and the live shows. Geniuses at work
Check out The Young Ones that also starred Ric & Ade. Forerunner to the comic style violence of Bottom. It was groundbreaking when first shown on British TV in the early eighties.
yeah, was a must see when I was at school. Everyone on a Tuesday morning would be talking about it!
The Dangerous Brothers. Rik & Ade. That was the forerunner to it all, spawned from their Footlights performances at uni’.
There are bits of The Dangerous Brothers on UA-cam.
Bottom is a kind of continuation of over-the-top characters from Rik and Ade’s first TV collaboration called “The Young Ones”, in which Ade played a punk rocker and Rik played a student anarchist, along with Nigel Planer playing Neil the hippie, and Christopher Ryan playing Mike, the extremely short cool guy
R.I.P Rick Mayall, LEGEND, Ade Edmondson too 🙏👍
The bar clip: the man arguing with Richie is Robert LLewelyn who is Kryton in Red Dwarf. The barmaid is Julia Sawalha was played Saffy in Absolutely Fabulous.
In the UK years ago some people would fiddle their electric or gas meters, so it gave a lower reading and so they paid less. I think the gas man was there to read the meter and would have found them out.
i could do that with the gas meter, landlady always wondered why there weren't many coins in the meter but i used more gas, she was a bit thick so i got away with it could not fiddle the electric meter the padlock was to hard to pick.good job she checked and not anyone else.
One of my mates got caught out doing it. When the police came with the Gas man to read the meter, the reading was lower than it had been from the last reading, when they told him this, he said does that mean you owe me money then? He ended up in court for it lol.
I remember a news story about someone moulding a fake 50 p out of ice to fiddle the meter
@@jonathangriffiths2499 genius.
@@jonathangriffiths2499 yeah some of those plastic coins for children used to work or but they made them slightly smaller, todays gas meters have a small plastic valve that is easy enough to remove and electricity meters just require a piece of wire like you use for an oven or washing machine to bypass the meter then smash the led readout when you move out, thats probably why they want everyone on smart meters or have meters outside some houses.
I grew up with this and keep watching every rerun there is
La veía de pequeño, en la televisión española, a principios de los 90 ( Canal Plus), y todavía me sigo riendo, casi 30 años después🤣😅
RIP Rik Mayall the most underrated comedy actor of a generation. Bottom still the most funniest thing I've ever seen. A mixture of cartoon violence and a Samuel Beckett play
I went to see these pair live when I was 16. Pure genius. Loved everything they did.
The most underrated British comedy of all time rip rik. Love em both
My grandfather was a deaf diabetic old guy and didn't have much interest in tv but when Bottom was on he pissed himself laughing literally ! 😂😂😂👍
RIP Rik Mayall..what a legend..was great in the new statesman too.
@@applecorp True... he was in a show on the tv here in Ireland about 9 months before he died.. a comedy playing a rich father.. he was still hilarious.. a true great of British comedy.
I've watched Bottom thousands of times but hearing you react has made it as hilarious as the first time I watched it in 1995! Thank you! xxx
The chess fight is one of the best things I ever saw as a teenager, I remember crying with laughter as it was the perfect culmination of the episode
Some of the best comedy ever made. These two were geniuses!
This was must watch comedy for any 90's kid growing up in England. I remember staying up late to watch it when I was like 6-7 years old, and since then I've always loved dark humour. You need to watch The League of Gentlemen or Top Buzzer.
I grew up watching these guys... British comedy at its best. It still hurts that Rik died so young.... he’ll never be forgotten.
Gasman was coming to read the meter :)
DO YOU HAVE SOMEONE WHO LOOKS AFTER YOU?!
Also to investigate the pipe from next doors gas meter!
@@Mrfort yes . So funny 🤣
As a kid growing up, Bottom was hilarious. I have so many fond memories of getting in front of the TV ready for 9pm and laughing with my family or friends.
The best bottom violence scene of all time has to be the fight in the kitchen in Guest House Paradiso. Anyone not pissing their pants with laughter is dead from the neck up.
Pheeeeeeeb
Candle in the eye.
One boiled egg
...and with Fenella Fielding - still a fox!
Bottom and The Young Ones are bloody brilliant
The camping one is my favorite - what you saw was only a part of the fighting... Once you get into the characters and their little nuances... the better it gets. RIP Rick.
Agreed. The camping episode is my all time favourite too. Richie and Eddie at their best!❤️
WOMBLES!!!!!!
'S Out. Series 2 episode 6. The hobnob fight.
I was a young boy when I first watched this.... My dad loved this show and had it on VHS, so I used to sit and watch it with him. Brings back great memories this does
Bottom was an hilliriaus program, there were rounders that they were going to make new episodes, but unfortunately Rik Mayal died. Your gonna love Dave Hedgehog and Spudgun.
All their episodes are ridiculously ultraviolent and Rick and Eddy are always the best of friends at the same time
You need to watch the episode called “HOLY”
Back in ‘82 these guys brought a new wave of “Anarchic Comedy” on to British TV. You remember what sitcoms were like back in the 80s (they were the same over here) the ultra perfect family where every episode was a forced lesson of togetherness. Well these guys said bollocks to that, let’s do something for the youth. Fresh out of uni they took comedy by storm with their show “The Young Ones” it ran for 2 seasons, as soon as the BBC wanted to make it prime time viewing they refused to write more episodes. This show Bottom was their 90s show. The way they would talk about their shows is that they wanted to one for each generation, they started off with “The young Ones” as University Students, followed by “Bottom” as middle aged men - however Rik Mayall died before they could ever seriously put plans into production for a third show.
The Young Ones is great but it’s very politically charged. While it’s still outrageously funny, some jokes may go over the head of someone who doesn’t remember or doesn’t know ‘80s U.K. politics. They did several live shows of Bottom, the link below was filmed and set AFTER the Bottom series ended. They are stranded on a Pacific Island, give this a watch (you don’t have to react to it but you can) this a blooper which they often kept in as part of their live DVD shows

You must watch “the young ones” Rick Mayal and Ade Edmunson again
But younger
Not quite as violent, more surreal with the subliminal clips and talking match box etc. Any show that can include Motörhead is cool AF.
@@willpemberton6823 I can't believe there is no emphasis on seeing the "Young Ones". Being "Gen X" or whatever, it was THE best shows of its time.
@@axelusul watched all of The Young Ones again a few months ago, it’s still a better show than most of the modern rubbish. Funny, clever, inventive, unique and at the time, groundbreaking.
@@willpemberton6823 Totally agree it still cracks me up.
not quite as violent lol "vivian where did you get that howitzer?....i found it"
A duo we'll never see the likes of again. It speaks gold when talking about Rik after his death Adrian said.
"There were times when Rik and I were writing together when we almost died laughing. They were some of the most carefree, stupid days I ever had, and I feel privileged to have shared them with him." Going on to end that with “And now he’s died for real. Without me. Selfish bastard.”
However, the fact you skipped the credits, you need to go back and see those!
Eddie was in the news today as he got stuck on his roof and had to ask a passer by to summon the fire brigade.
He was trying to watch the cricket 🏏 ..🤣🤣 then someone robbed the shop whilst he was stuck on the roof during a typhoon of buffalo dung.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rik would have pissed himself.
Cleaning the Windows
British comedy is just the best .. You need to watch Bottom live on tour !!!
The camping episode is the Wimbledon common one. Looking for wombles lol
Mate! You MUST watch all of Bottom! Absolutely classic. RIP Rik
You will love full episodes :) I've loved this since I was a kid, I used to watch with my brother and we still sometimes quote it. Rik Mayall is sorely missed :(
They have physical fights , verbal and mental warfare . They absolutely despise each other but can’t live without each other . Great show
Check outThe Young Ones... Pre Bottom!... I was born in Hammersmith but now I live in Burnley, Lancashire.. North West of England!.. Love how you get the silly sense of humor British comedy brings to the table!.. Big love!.. ❤✊🇺🇸
Thanks for watching it mate. I knew you would love bottom. They also went live on stage in front of the audience quite a few times. You should check them... even funnier. 👍🏻👍🏻
Bottom was quality lol. ..there live show was incredible lol.
all 5? of the live shows are epic
The guy operating the frying pan "ding" button has wonderful timing.
Bottom and Red Dwarf on tape, was my lullaby to go sleep since I was like 6, I can mime every word and violent action haha its nice that 'murica is finally giving it the respect it deserves, we have nothing like this anymore, just 2 scummy people in a flat, causing ruckus, and twatting each other, so simple, but amazing
Rik Mayall passing away felt like losing a family member
Bottom is awesome, I would definitely recommend it.
Just the expressions and stuff in it are great, both of the main guys are awesome actors.
And its also a pretty accurate representation of being broke in 90s Britain XD
The fight they have playing chess in the episode “culture” had me crying laughing when I was 8. I’m 37 now and it still makes me cry laughing, though mixed with a few sad tears.... RIP Rik we all miss you!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOF!!!!!
Rik Mayall was a comic legend and sadly missed
Used to love watching bottom as a kid theres so many funny comedians over the years from UK from slapstick to controversial Roy chubby brown frankie Boyle jimmy car savages nothing off limits
Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson reuniting in Bottom after their previous work on The Young Ones, which is also worth a look. Not slapstick violence like Bottom, but offbeat comedy about a student house. A great comedy duo.
R.I.P. the late Rik Mayall. A legend of laughs.
Shit tonnes of slapstick in the Young Ones
Ade Edmondson's and Rik Mayall's "Guesthouse Paradiso" is a good collection of their madness
Rick and Ade did a series called " filthy rich and catflap" before this, check it out its hilarious,they clearly developed those characters into their bottom characters.
To be fair they were doing it on a tv via a sketch show as 'the dangerous brothers' and then did the young ones before filthy etc.
Filthy rich & cat flap sucked.
The New Statesman was the best Rik Mayall comedy.
Fun fact - Ade played Captain Peavey, General Hux's right hand man in The Last Jedi
The guy who Richie is showing his scar to is Robert LLewellyn at 11:03 the actor who played Kryten the Android in Red Dwarf. Bottom, Young Ones and Red Dwarf all had directors and producers and actors who starred in each others shows.
Careful not to watch the god awful US pilot of Red Dwarf, a total waste of video tape, everything that made the U.K. version funny was removed. Lister being a total slob was part of the joke, in the US version he’s the archetypal all-round American good guy, hence not funny.
@@willpemberton6823 Agreed. This ^
The guy at the bar who doubt's Richie was in the war, he's Kryton from Red Dwarf. great actor :)
It’s a great release from a mad day’s work
Use to look forward to seeing this every weekend. The great Rik Mayall a comedy genius. RIP my friend.
They originally wanted to call it Your Bottom, they loved the idea of people saying to each other “I saw your bottom on TV last night”
They're all on Netflix...welcome to the Ritchie & Eddy club...also..they did a Bottom movie..Guesthouse Paradiso
In the UK houses have a gas meter and a gas man comes around to read the meter so the company know what your bill should be. Eddie and Richie were stealing gas from their next door neighbour so they wouldn't' t have to pay anything, but when the gas man got suspicious they ended up trying to kill him to stop him checking next door.
the gas man is like the water and power utilities guy, and he'd just found out they were stealing gas from next doors supply, so they didn't want him to report it
That's my favourite episode 👍😁
He hasn't found out yet. They need to delay him while they disconnect the feed next door.
@@AlmightyCRJ ITS THE GAASSSS MAAAANNNN.
@@JohnsysChannel hahaha, he had to shout it so loud so Eddie would understand. And you wrote it down exactly right. 😂
@@chrisspere4836 I've been watching the Young Ones since I was 4 years old in 1986! They showed the clip of Vyv getting his head cut off by the train from the Bambi episode on Comic Relief and I was crying laughing. They also brought out Living Doll as a Comic Relief record, and I loved it, so I got that record, and I got the videos to watch too. Then when Bottom came out I adored that as well, and the lesser known Filthy, Rich and Catflap which was written by Ben Elton. So yeah, bit obsessed really. Most likely why I've got a fucking warped sense of humour now.
You really need to see the bottom scene when they are in the tent with the flasher trying to come in!😃😂🤣🤣🤪
You have to watch Bottom live great how they interact with the audience R.I.P Rick
yeah love how they go off script and interact with the audience live lol, so funny, back in the day every christmas the missuses sister always used to buy me a bottom live video when they came out lol
Rik and Ade, the absolute masters of modern slapstick. Every episode of Bottom, Every episode of The Young Ones and every appearance in Blackadder. To mention but a few...lol.
Omg love this show, the young ones is another good show starring them both 😊
Rik and Ade did an act called The Dangerous Brothers , its a hyper version of this stuff , one time Rik set fire to Ade and it goes wrong
They did a feature length movie called Guest house paradiso... it is hilarous and worth a watch
The live shows are brilliant! It`s more of the same, but they take the piss out of each other when one forgets a line, and they try to out do each other with the ad libs.
Your finally understanding the brilliance of BOTTOM ......RIP Rick mayall
Thanks for making my day. I just now found out this video existed. Thank you for exposing more people to my video, and to Bottom.
I've always thought of Bottom as being the live acrion equivalent of the old 1950's Tom and Jerry. The violence is so over the top any sane person knows its fake. The only thing missing is Rik's face staying the shape of the frying pan when Eddie hits him with it!
You must watch all episodes, utterly classic
They’re literally the real life Tom and Jerry!
These boys are genius, glad you enjoy and glad I found your channel through them pal. Greetings from Newcastle upon Tyne England 🏴
You're legit my all-time favourite reaction channel bro, I love how you get our humour and your laugh is so infectious! Bless you man ❤
These two are the best ,they also great in the young ones 👌
The live shows of bottom are legendary, when they mess up their lines or go off script is hilarious haha
Through the young ones, the dangerous brothers, filthy rich and catflap and then bottom Rik and Ade always were the masters of comedy violence!! R.I.P Rik he is so sorely missed
EB i grew up watching bottom, im now 33 an still watch the whole series front back every yr....timeless.
The two characters here worked together in the young ones . Well worth a look 👍
