Fun fact: this wasn’t planned at all. Once Tig got the message from her friend (now wife), she texted her ‘I’m going to call you and be as boring as you can be’. Tig is a comedic genius!
@@ubermensch826 Tig has talked about the bit before. It wasn't completely unplanned--Tig asked her friend (now wife) to just be ready on the phone at that time and to sound really boring. They didn't rehearse or plan the bit beyond that.
Tig is a genius. Her style is so subtle, it can be overlooked. But she's got it on lock. She has a 5 minute bit from another late show where she just pushes a stool around. And it's hilarious.
it wasn't planned as in here's what you say here's what i'll say etc. She had to give a heads up because she could have ended up cursing or not answering etc.
at 1st, I didn't really like her style now, I've seen 6 videos in a row of Tig, all of which has me really cracking up, and realizing she's really original....
It's back! I've been looking for this for years and it's finally back! Tig is obviously doing something incredible here and Conan is being very good at rolling with the punches. You can tell it isn't planned because at the end you can see him show her his card because it's time for plugs, they're great together
She's incredible. I've watched her 'no moleste' joke countless times and I'm peeing myself every single time. I swear, it's almost scary how brilliant she is.
That was great. Tig is a genious. I have seen this bit a few times now. That was pretty clever of her. i.e talking about being 'present' and actually not being present at the same time. Great comedy!
I never really knew much about Tig until she was in Army of the Dead. I started checking out her standup and I wasn't disappointed. She's excellent! I love her style of humour
Of course it's a set up! She's making a pointed juxtaposition of how we derail heavy topics with our own personal obsessions... which is actually an old comedic concept, but Notaro plays it out brilliantly.
It's like she's a walking version of "The Office." And, right now, on the right side of this YT page, is a video called, "Tig Notaro Has No Fear Of Awkward Moments." Yeah, that's it. And this self-referential thing is WAY more hilarious and impactful (there's truth in comedy, after all) than if she were just talking about it. "Yeah, I um, uh, just learned to, uh, *looks at phone* stay present..."
Tig's delivery is so smoooooooooooth. God she needs to do a show with Louis CK that would be amazing. IF anyone has footage of the two of them together, Please upload!!!!!!
I love comedians who are so good at being deadpan you fight with yourself constantly about whether they are being serious or not. Like, you know it's a joke...but they still manage to get you worried.
Has a keen sense of our culture. This is our world. Brave young funny. Wish I had the last thirty years to get back. She almost lost hers yet entertainment.
"what are you doing?" "...nothin."
that shit was perfect
Lmao haha yep perfect! Lol
Why was it perfect?
I'm dying
It's hard to explain why this is as funny as it is. The timing, her expression, the enunciation. She's really turned comedy into art.
queen of dead-pan
Love her!
Timing, expression, and enunciation. You just easily explained why it's funny. lol
One of my favorite parts is how rude she's being to Conan lol
Not too hard, it's irony
She is THE genius of deadpan comedy.
Peter Huestis j
The comedic timing is just too perfect. Can't be taught.
She's amazing!
YNWA !

how do you know this

@ c vers Yes HOW DO YOU KNOW for surs this wasn't planned??
@@leif1075 she told the story on her netflix special! she has two on there, you should check them out both are *really* good!
Except Norm Macdonald did it 15 years before on _The View._
Jeff Goldblum is mesmerized.
i think we all are lol
He should be, she's amazing !
I think it does take a"Mad Genius" as Lena Headey called Tig on her show "Under a Rock" to impress Jeff Goldblum... and I agree, she is!
yeah😍😍 a breath taking man impressed by a mad genius😎😎
Tig has the most calming comedian voice.
Yes she does 😊
I love her speaking voice.
She reminds of Bob Newhart’s delivery. Flawlessly forever funny.
This is so masterfully constructed.
Lovely fact: this friend is the woman that is now her wife, and this was completely unscripted!
Yeah, it sounded like the woman she called was not in on anything, I Love it!
No way! So sweet! ❤️
Sounds like Sarah Silverman to me.
She told her she was going to call her before going on air. But the dialogue was unscripted.
how could she not hear the audience laughing in the background on speaker phone?
I was just telling this guy...
Conan
You...you don't know her
OMG XD

You're right! That was so funny. On paper u could never guess that would be funny, but it was. That was actually on this same talk show, Conan, too :)
i think she's the first person to outstage conan on his own show
this is Andy Kauffman level genius
People keep referring to that. Is there a recording of it
The best part is that the joke lands in the first minute but she keeps going for several more.
So brilliant. Absolute genius.
Otherworldly sense of comedic timing on her, man. When she referred to Conan as "this guy" I about died
Only Tig can make phone call interrupting funny but not rude.
It was very rude, that's the entire point of the bit.
@@vahnn0 I'm guessing they meant it wasn't mean-spirited, but more just absurd
in her documentary she says that it wasnt planned but when u see her texting back she said "im going to call u, answer and sound really boring"
+Abby Meyer cos she's fake.
+7FatBears awww you sad about it?
+VickytheCultLeader Luv u Vicky xoxo
She planned it but Conan didn't fully know about it.
it wasn't planned as in here's what you say here's what i'll say etc. She had to give a heads up because she could have ended up cursing or not answering etc.
It's so adorable that she ended up dating Stephanie
They're engaged now!
+Samantha Todd they're married now!!
They are expecting twins now!!!
They had their twins! Max and Finn born June 26.
(I love all the Tig updates in this thread! haha!)
that was one wild ride
This must have been a really weird day for Conan. First Jeff Goldblum and then this interview.
Regina Phalange Conan LOVES Tig
I loved watching Jeff goldblum be delighted by tig!
This is Andy Kauffman genius! Having people unknowingly laugh at themselves is about the smartest it gets. Tig you rock!
at 1st, I didn't really like her style now, I've seen 6 videos in a row of Tig, all of which has me really cracking up, and realizing she's really original....
I love conan's just honest laughter like he can't hold it in haha
She is a genius
I'm pretty sure this bit is gonna make late night television history.
Her delivery is so spot on it is amazing!!
No my life, …it was threatened 😂 the way she so nonchalantly says it! Love Tig she’s always been hilarious 🤣🤣
I've seen probably 90% of Conan episodes this is by far the funniest 4 mins ever. She's hilarious
She's so hysterical. She just doesn't give a fuck. I love it.
It took me a little while to get the joke, but when I did I couldn't stop laughing XD
"No you don't know her" *waves hand* hahaha
whats the joke?
Tig has been my friend for many years. Since before she did standup. So happy and thankful that she's recovering. She killed in this interview too.
Conan’s reactions make me think this wasn’t planned.... and that makes it all the more hilarious.
one of my favorite comedians ever .. pure brilliance .. love her style
It's back! I've been looking for this for years and it's finally back!
Tig is obviously doing something incredible here and Conan is being very good at rolling with the punches. You can tell it isn't planned because at the end you can see him show her his card because it's time for plugs, they're great together
So true! She really committed. This is, hands down, the funniest clip I've seen of a guest on Conan.
Friend: "What are you doing?"
Tig:"Nothing."
Best internet clip ever!
I think this might be the greatest bit anyone's ever done on a talk show since Kaufman on Letterman in June 1980.
she is a genius and a better actor than I realized!
WHAT?!?! and they don't show the picture? how can I go on without seeing the picture?
+TheWholeSystemisFckd There probably wasn't even a picture, the girl she called, her partner, was just told to sound really bored when Tig called her
+Megan Parker Because there aren't a shit ton of cat pics on google i.e. it's pretty much impossible to find that pic, if there even was one.
idiot
She's incredible. I've watched her 'no moleste' joke countless times and I'm peeing myself every single time. I swear, it's almost scary how brilliant she is.
she is so underrated ! she’s hilarious i love watching her interviews 😂😂
1:08. When Conan begins to realize it's a bit. Brilliant.
Tig is brilliant. This was just bloody brilliant.
I. Love. Tig Notaro. Might be my favorite comedian.
This is pure performance art!!!!
I love her smile!
Hearing Andy with a loud genuine laugh is my love language.
God, I love her. I can't breathe. I love seeing him genuinely laugh, such a gem
Loved her as "Ben" on parks and recreation
Lmfao
Marcus Rehn rofl
That’s ridiculous! Clearly she played Jean-Ralphio
Yesssssss I was just thinking that while watching this video.
Sheer brilliance! She is a modern marvel of the human race.
Tig slays me. Love her to actual pieces.
Tig is genius with her comedic timing. I am a new fan.
She's a really fine actress! I'm going to watch "In a World" today!
One of the funniest bits you've had on the show, and It's so spot on today.
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing...."
I LOST IT!
That was her future wife 😍
😍...This is how all starts
the crowd was awesome
One of my favorite comedians.
Oh, Tig! Who else can call a friend during an interview on Conan and OWN the stage while she's at it ?
I've watched this so many times, never gets old
One of the best constructed bits I have ever seen on late night television.
Tig, John Dore and Rory Scovel are 3 of the most creative comics out there! brilliant bits! love ya' all
It took me awhile but I finally realized she’s a genius.
That was great. Tig is a genious. I have seen this bit a few times now. That was pretty clever of her. i.e talking about being 'present' and actually not being present at the same time. Great comedy!
This is like the 3rd time I've watched this and I'm laughing so hard I'm getting light-headed.
It's so funny. I come back to it every few months
Just priceless so hilarious! Love Tig you are the best❤️
Even Jeff Goldblum is like, “this lady’s nuts but I, uh, love her!” 😂😂😂
I love the way this woman makes her point.
I never really knew much about Tig until she was in Army of the Dead. I started checking out her standup and I wasn't disappointed. She's excellent! I love her style of humour
This is, hands down, the funniest thing I've ever seen on live TV
The tears . omfg I was in tears with this entire clip .
I LOVE THIS WOMAN! And her humor. OMG. I just peed myself when she called her wife...
the thing is nobody can do what Tig Notaro does and get away with it.
this is one of the funniest and most inventive talk show appearances I've ever seen... only Tig could pull this off
she so totally got Conan…charming. Cheers!
Of course it's a set up! She's making a pointed juxtaposition of how we derail heavy topics with our own personal obsessions... which is actually an old comedic concept, but Notaro plays it out brilliantly.
I adore this woman!
her timing and hesitations are amazing...
It's like she's a walking version of "The Office." And, right now, on the right side of this YT page, is a video called, "Tig Notaro Has No Fear Of Awkward Moments." Yeah, that's it. And this self-referential thing is WAY more hilarious and impactful (there's truth in comedy, after all) than if she were just talking about it.

The algorithm decided to show me some Conan after I binged ALL the Craig Ferguson shows… and this ist the best so far 😂
Tig's delivery is so smoooooooooooth. God she needs to do a show with Louis CK that would be amazing. IF anyone has footage of the two of them together, Please upload!!!!!!
That would be comedy overload!
Unfortunately Tig and Louis have beef
This is performance art! Genius!!!!!
Hands down, imo, funniest woman alive. And she doesn't even try.
i love this woman to pieces.
I love comedians who are so good at being deadpan you fight with yourself constantly about whether they are being serious or not. Like, you know it's a joke...but they still manage to get you worried.
I absolutely love this woman
she has incredible timing
That was amazingly hilarious. Best thing I've ever see a guest do on a talk show. Says so much and was so funny...
I watch this clip over and over again. :)
Has a keen sense of our culture. This is our world.
Brave young funny. Wish I had the last thirty years to get back. She almost lost hers yet entertainment.
I absolutely love it. Making a serious situation hilarious. Great work.
Bring her back on the show Conan!!!!
Her delivery is so masterful
They work so well together
Yes, she's truly a musician.
So glad to see tig on! She's brilliant.
easily one of the funniest conan interviews
She's so perfect. Love Tig.
Hilarious and her timing is genius!
Man, I'd never heard of her until this video but I'm digging whatever this was. She pulls off the distant awkwardness really really well!
