There's so much to like about KPCS - amazing guests, time to get to know them, funny banter and a relaxed environment. HOWEVER, every time I watch an episode I find myself shouting at the screen, "Shut up, Kevin! Let your guest talk! Stop pre-answering the question you are asking!" The missed opportunities are painful to watch.
Some celebrities are even more likable than the charactors we originally fall in love with, Chris is one of those for me. Also kinda cool to learn that he and Anna are from the Seattle area as well. Love this show, so glad I found it.
The way he describes hunting is what a TRUE hunter feels. Not an asshole in the woods with a gun, but a real hunter. From the pleasure of being out in nature, to the remorse for the life you just took. That is what hunting is really about. NOT just killing an animal!
FULLY agree to a point - and Chris said it the best I've heard, but where I depart is that (deer/elk) hunting is a lot of luck and a little skill. With a long rifle, not much skill is needed. So, there should be a LOT of remorse for taking that life. Humans ape the rest of the predators and do not readily accept that life is very precious - not top of mind. But humans know better. Life is VERY precious. Hunting preserves habitat so it is a necessary 'evil'. if the meat is eaten by the hunter or donated to be eaten, then fine all around.
I just discovered this awesome show the other a day so I’ve been binging it without realizing how old it was...I kept waiting for them to talk about Jurassic World or Passengers and then I realized they hadn’t happened yet 😂😂
I notice all the comments deriding Pollack for 'talking too much,' etc...I have to disagree. Pollack is damn funny and has a wealth of knowledge and stories about the industry he and his guests work in. This is the first installment I have seen and I am realllllly looking forward to watching a ton of episodes. More power to you, Pollack!
Who gives a shit what Kevin and Samm are doing, theyre a part of the show and the format of the show is a dialogue , two way street, two or more people talking, It was a great KPCS!
So it’s a train and it’s going smoothly down the track. Everything is going great. You have a drink in your hands and then all of a sudden Kevin and his sidekick converse and totally derails the conversation. Fuck!
I like him. I even find Sam quite amusing, too. Yes, they talk a lot, interrupt, and are snarky assholes. That's their shtick. I can totally understand some people not liking that shtick, but like you said, if someone doesn't like it perhaps they should stop watching.
I love that Megan M knew that live they didn't need the rights in #131 I would like to see Chris' video phone in of Little Sebastian as much as I'd like to see MM's Larry King Game submission
haha ikr. i get that it's tradition or whatever but makes no sense. This guest is a contemporary A list actor, and honestly doing kevin a favor. Sam is not funny but does seem like a natural replacement for Kevin.
Pratt is almost perfect except for the obsession with hunting. He did an article with Hunting a magazine that sounded way colder than how he described his love for it here.
Normally really like this show, but as noted below KP really under played. Went whole interview without realizing Pratt was the smartest person in the room.
I understand Kevin Pollak is a known personality, but far out he puts out zero chemistry. I thought this would have the feel of a green room or Chris Hardwick podcast. But man its stale. The first 30 minutes felt like i was in a dentists waiting room eavesdropping on two accountants conversation about the weather and how they went for a walk. Which is a shame because they get great guests. Maybe Kevin should bring in a more colloquial host and just produce the show.
01:25:40 So wrong. Who Tweeted rule is that only one rings in with the scoring based on that ring-in. Chris rang in and was wrong. Didn't matter that Kevin got it right. The outcome may be the same (only Sammie - Kevin's minion - knows for sure), but da rulz are da rulz!
This is a perfect example of what a nice, down to earth, awesome guy Chris Pratt is. This Kevin guy won't let him talk, answers his own questions, spends the first 10 minutes talking about his own movie, CONSTANTLY interrupting, and Chris just sits there and behaves like a nice guy. Either that or he's acting. You know he's got to be irritated. And his sidekick, ugh. I'm sorry dude but who are you? Brad Pitt gave you the time of day and you had the nerve to ask who HE was??? I've never seen his face anywhere! I wonder if Chris's comment about douchey guys in Hollywood not getting work because of their attitudes was a hint to this dork.
Sam's question to Pitt was sarcasm/irony. Instead of kissing Pitt's ass, he made a joke of it by feigning ignorance of who he is. Of course he knew who Pitt was, and of course Pitt knew that he knew. And of course Sam is WAY lower on the rung of fame than Pitt is, and knows it.That's why it was funny. I bet Pitt thought it was funny, just like when Pratt told him to get his feet off his f-ing coffee table.
Good God, Pollak! Ask a direct question and stop wandering. I really like Chris Pratt but this thing really needs to be slimmed down. Levine, write research but please don't speak.
They need to calm down about being flagged for copyright. U can sing any song you want especally a made up song on a tv show without being flagged!! They do this on every show
This is probably my least favorite KPCS ever. 1) Samm Levine is at his most annoying. 2) Kevin Pollack launches on some ignorance. The Mayans are still here a-hole. Native people aren't all dead. It's a shame because I enjoy Chris Pratt otherwise.
"not a fluid interview"... yes, because all fluid interviews are edited (as ice said) and/or rehearsed. You really have to wean yourself off the "THIS IS WHAT AN INTERVIEW LOOKS LIKE" Tip: watch some Craig Ferguson Late Late Show episodes/interviews here. Of course, you could also just call this a conversation.

He's really not very good lol, gets great guest though.
Chris Pratt is just so adorable and charming - So happy that he's become so successful
This interview was when Chris was only a mid level star, it would be cool to get him back on the show now that he's blown up huge.
Some celebrities are even more likable than the charactors we originally fall in love with, Chris is one of those for me. Also kinda cool to learn that he and Anna are from the Seattle area as well. Love this show, so glad I found it.

It's neat seeing him back before Guardians blew up. He's a hard working real guy, I like him even more now.
1:59:04 "Mouse Rat, Lead Singer".... Respect ;)
KP was ahead of his time with this format.
I just discovered this awesome show the other a day so I’ve been binging it without realizing how old it was...I kept waiting for them to talk about Jurassic World or Passengers and then I realized they hadn’t happened yet 😂😂
29:35......Chris's double take was hilarious
Chris pratt is amazing
Chris Pratt is THE coolest guy in the world ;)
I agree
him and Nick Offerman are the fart twins, there is evidence of this in the parks and rec bloopers
Except for all the animal abuse, neglect and murder.
I notice all the comments deriding Pollack for 'talking too much,' etc...I have to disagree. Pollack is damn funny and has a wealth of knowledge and stories about the industry he and his guests work in. This is the first installment I have seen and I am realllllly looking forward to watching a ton of episodes. More power to you, Pollack!
I miss this Chris Pratt so much.
Just wanted to say your show is my second favorite chatshow after the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Keep up the great work.
such a bright conversation about the mayans
interesting to see chris before super star status. He is still the same way now. Great guy.
Great guest. Enjoyed this one.
Who gives a shit what Kevin and Samm are doing, theyre a part of the show and the format of the show is a dialogue , two way street, two or more people talking, It was a great KPCS!
21:09 guest arrives
So it’s a train and it’s going smoothly down the track. Everything is going great. You have a drink in your hands and then all of a sudden Kevin and his sidekick converse and totally derails the conversation. Fuck!
Am I the only one watching Kevin's show that actually likes him? I have never watched a show with a host I didn't like. Why would one do that?
They do it because they are self loathing assholes.
Because this is the internet and people like being argumentative.
I like him. I even find Sam quite amusing, too. Yes, they talk a lot, interrupt, and are snarky assholes. That's their shtick. I can totally understand some people not liking that shtick, but like you said, if someone doesn't like it perhaps they should stop watching.
Kevin is a good actor..not a fan as interviewer. Only watched this for Pratt. The "F wrd is not necessary 🙄
@@Carl_Frank gulp, gulp, great talent but WAY to full of himself
And now he is star lord
Great interview, amazing guest and good energy all around.
Chris Pratt is so cute 😍😍😍
pre-Guardians. OMG. :D
Your'e my insparation chris, since 2012, i am 15 now
I love how Chris ended up writing how he lost so much weight just by stop drinking beer into parks and rec, that is so fucking funny!! lol
Many years ago a friend said she lost weight just by not drinking soda.
I love Chris Pratt but Kevin... eh
Awesome! Really enjoyed that!
For the 5 minutes I watched it was completely BLAN. Bailed.
- Britt - Maybe he was hungry, thinking of FLAN.
Ending is fantastic. Not talking about the LKG
Awesome interview!
Again... Spielberg's name was mentioned 1:52:00... It was a sign for Chris. He was destined to be part of the Jurassic Family.
I love that Megan M knew that live they didn't need the rights in #131 I would like to see Chris' video phone in of Little Sebastian as much as I'd like to see MM's Larry King Game submission
Pratt played Hatteberg who lived in Yakima, WA.
21 minutes for Chris Pratt. Geezus Pollack need to let his guests speak.
haha ikr. i get that it's tradition or whatever but makes no sense. This guest is a contemporary A list actor, and honestly doing kevin a favor. Sam is not funny but does seem like a natural replacement for Kevin.
Am I the only one who doesn't like the host? He's lucky he has Chris Pratt with him.
Towlie Take me down to funky town
Yes. I love Kevin... He's himself and the show is very raw. That's what makes him great. He's not trying to be a Leno or Letterman.
Pratt is almost perfect except for the obsession with hunting. He did an article with Hunting a magazine that sounded way colder than how he described his love for it here.
LOVED YOU IN END OF DAYS!!!!
fucking love moneyball, one of my favorite movies, in spite of all the inaccuracies. looking forward (not that much) to Jurassic world.
MARIO BROS.
(garfield, starlord, barley, owen grady, etc.)
Normally really like this show, but as noted below KP really under played. Went whole interview without realizing Pratt was the smartest person in the room.
can't THE Hulu or THE iTunes pay for some rights to hear some songs and see some clips?
how the hell does this dude gulp so damn loud haha
206:06 is where the sociopath talks about the enjoyment of killing
I understand Kevin Pollak is a known personality, but far out he puts out zero chemistry. I thought this would have the feel of a green room or Chris Hardwick podcast. But man its stale.

Did you buy the set and table from Charlie Rose's garage sale?..jk love the show!
Good God, Pollak! Ask a direct question and stop wandering. I really like Chris Pratt but this thing really needs to be slimmed down. Levine, write research but please don't speak.
Oh, Kevin please pipe down and let your guest speak. Also it's past time to consider letting Sam Levine go.
They need to calm down about being flagged for copyright. U can sing any song you want especally a made up song on a tv show without being flagged!! They do this on every show
Aren't all songs made up?
Chris Pratt Secret 🙂🎵
So, wait. They were talking about "Anyone that knew him, had business with him" ECT regarding Disney hating Jews....citation please?
21:09
+the f00 it was rather long this time...
they seriously made the guest wait an entire episode of seinfeld to begin
Chris Pratt Secret 🙂
1:15:40
Incredible timing.
Pollock really does like talking about himself. Why does he bother having guests? It doesn't stop. Ugh see ya.
If Tom Brady had become an actor instead he would be Chris Pratt
This is probably my least favorite KPCS ever. 1) Samm Levine is at his most annoying. 2) Kevin Pollack launches on some ignorance. The Mayans are still here a-hole. Native people aren't all dead.
It's a shame because I enjoy Chris Pratt otherwise.
+Ryan Barber Unluckily for you, Samm is now the guest host when Kevin can't do it.. which is a lot lately with him being on a sitcom..
strong paddlers in canoes tend to be in the back.
Shout out to Ken Collins, LSHS 03'
I'm sorry but Kevin irks me because he incessantly interrupts his guests, it gets super annoying
I feel much the same way. He needs to be quiet and also let Samm go.
Seepy Rectum then you would hate howard stern.
Sharklops it's called chat show because they chat. it's not a talk show. they are having a conversation with questions peppered in
C. P. Rectem -- Wow I was just thinking that
As well as his shitty, insufferable sidekick.
I AM GROOT
20 minutes of nonsense at the beginning.
they talk waaaaaaay too much about his weight or is it just me?
freaks and geeeeeeeeks
jo blo (VROMOTHEAVOLOMENOSzxzx) 1 second ago
u can whisper teen drama,i hear anything
Kevin so awkward, rambles and pauses not a fluid interview at all, it's distracting, shame
+jediknightwez it could be because it isnt edited
"not a fluid interview"... yes, because all fluid interviews are edited (as ice said) and/or rehearsed. You really have to wean yourself off the "THIS IS WHAT AN INTERVIEW LOOKS LIKE"
