Dylan Moran's Nihlistic Take On Life | Friday Night With Jonathan Ross 

I came here simply to see what Dylan Moran is like in normal interaction. Turns out he's basically the same as in Black Books without the slapstick! He never disappoints.

The open contempt Dylan shows Ross here is fucking magical.

My grandfather is a pretty stoic cynical old man and Dylan Moran in black books and when we saw him live made him laugh so much we worried he might pass out. Thank you Dylan for making my cranky old grandad nearly piss himself laughing, I'd never seen him so happy.

Dylan is an absolute genius. Totally underrated in my opinion.

He is the most clever comedian ever. His command of the English is incredible

"lie in bed into this vortex of sensations" his take on fantasy regarding technology is layered and extremely accurated.He has a keen eye on observing society and human behaviour. This made me think about the freakish presentation of Zukerberg's video on this dream about Meta...horible chills down the spine... Dylan is the one I turn to when I need to think,laugh and being amazed.

Dylan Moran's brain works in mysterious ways! He's just awesome...

"I'm still settling into this century" - That line is savage AF & I love it! 😂

Morans comedic mind works at the speed of light.

Huge fan of Moran, but I feel like people really underappreciate how sweet Jonathan Ross' set-ups are. He's really letting Dylan do his thing

I absolutely love this man.

My old boss was exactly like Bernard Black. No positive outlook on anything, had friends he loved but didn't really like. But crankyness aside he was a hilarious guy, he'd tell you how it is and his brutal honesty and don't give a fuck attitude was hilarious. RIP Tony ❤️

Moran absolutely taking Ross out of his comfort zone

Weird how his eyes spark joy, but the rest of his body look like he just wants to sit in a corner getting shit faced on his own

Dylan is definitely my spirit animal

The first thirty-five times I watched this clip I thought Dylan was taking the piss out of Jonathan. Now this time I saw a hilarious interaction between the two. So keep watching .

i stumbled across this comedian not too long ago thanks to youtubes wierd algorithm of posting videos from years ago lol. This man is really funny and speaks the truth as well. what a legend.

Robin Williams, Dylan Moran, Billy Connolly and the guys before them saved my life still do!

PREVIEW: Thirteen minutes and forty-four seconds of Dylan Moran toying with Wossisname.

Not entirely certain what was nihlistic about that interview, but will admit that was widely entertaining. Thank you for uploading that. it made my day.

Dylan is so amazingly funny, love the way his mind works!

Loved Black Books, great show

this is entertainment as good as it gets....thank you, both of you ❤

Hey, he predicted the smart phone revolution. Though by his comments about his relationship to technology, I can't imagine he'd use one.

Well he DID predict the size of the modern do-it-all smart phone pretty accurately, didn't he?

This is Dylan in pretty much every TV interview, he definitely has a soft spot for Jonathon.

Black Books is brilliant, I want more! :)

He obviously didn't want to be there but as usual he is constantly in desperate need for cash. Awesome guy!! 🤣🤣😂😂

And then the cage comes down! Dylan and Bill are the best comedians of all time. And they were on the same show!

Lovely banter. Love Dylan. ❤💕

I haven't watched a person hate another person that intensely in awhile

Dylan Moran is absolute genius.

Dylan, you're a legend

I saw Dylan Moran in performance and he was just as funny in real life as here or in Black Books. I almost pissed my pants.

His stand up is insanely funny

Wow I would love to hang out with this guy - if only he would come to Oregon-

How refreshing! I love Dylan Moran so much! What he said was absolutely brilliant!

12:58 holy sh*t. Dylan casually fortelling smartphones

God I loved this programme, loved Dylan Moran and Jonathon Ross...was envious of an old boss that got tickets to see him interview Colin Farrel :)

I know a guy he based bernard black on. Years ago he worked in comic book shop in Edinburgh with this bloke who is exactly like B. Black. It's true 100 %.

I haven't got a MySpace account yet. Might get one in a year or two.

12:54 onwards he perfectly describes the modern smartphone

They work together so well

Brilliant!!!!!💚💚💚

I am watching this video on a 6 x 3 inch lump of metal which can do practially anything 😨

Poor Dylan. It felt as if his publicist pushed him to do this interview. A guy like this needs someone who's stimulating his mind , and not numbing it

I like how he invented a smartphone in that interview

Jonathan and Craig Ferguson are the only hosts I've seen that can keep up with Dylan's wit. Very funny and Dylan was absolutely bang on, I'm laying in bed, in the middle of the day watching this on my phone. I haven't stuck it up my arse yet though 😁😬😳

the love I have for Dylan Moran....

That has aged well! Interesting how high above all our petty efforts on spending life one can seem while dodging to say: "drunk". ❤

I hope Dylan and his family are getting on well with this whole quarantine thing 😊

He was so handsome

Do you have a MySpace account? Bloody hell, I have stumbled down the history channel!

Dylan Moran -what a clever fella!

Gotta admit, I love the way he thinks. It's just hilarious to hear it play out. Makes me wonder what tangent I'd go off on if I were expected to just sit on stage and talk to someone I've never met before.

I saw him on the street in Edinburgh once and now I think about it, it wasn't far from a second hand bookshop like Black Books. Myspace .. wow, that dates this! The Tiktok/facebook of that era.

DYLAN DOESN'T TRY TO BE FUNNY, HE JUST SAYS WHATEVER COMES TO MIND. I'VE NEVER SEEN HIM EVER START TO LAUGH OR EVEN SMILE WHEN HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ARE LOSING THEIR SH*T. HE ACTUALLY TELLS PEOPLE NOT TO LAUGH OR CLAP BC HE FORGETS WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT. IMO HE IS A GENIUS WHO IS VERY BORED.

Brilliant.👍

10:30 "It's bacon-suprise because it's vegatble soup."

“we’d mentioned potatoes there, indirectly” “you brought it up Jonathon” Dylan knew the famine was going to be brought up, and wanted to make sure he wasn’t the one bringing it up!

Dylan clearly thinks Ross is a Twatwaffle 😂

Good to see Elijah Wood at 11:08 having a blast

14 years old clip, yet it feels 40

Love him, saw him last year, but he was surprisingly cocky in this interview and Jonathan very gracious about it.

Dylan ❤❤❤

I love Dylan FitzSimons

1:43 "Some eel stall" Perfect

How have I never till now come across this comedian, reminds me somehow off Dudley Moore.

Dylan was hilarious but have to admit, it was a little awkward to watch with the poor questions 🙈

This is when tv was still relaxed. Now you cant do anything on tv

Brilliant Dylan is very witty

Not aware of him as a standup? That is horseshit. He is one of the very best to ever do it.

I believe this interview could serve as the definition of contempt

35 so this was 2006. i'm looking for newer interviews from dylan

I think Dylan is like Richard Ayoade, very tricky to interview. Jonathan didn't make it work very well, he got lost due to Dylan's brilliant mind and quirky style, just like they do in Ayoade interviews 😁 Craig Ferguson would probably have done a great interview with Dylan (has he maybe?), Craig can keep up better with non-mainstream comedians IMO.

Woss's hair! Multi-millionaire and a haircut like that.

Elijah Wood laughing in the background

Dylan is amazing , i have about 5 of him in my head on the left.

i thought great chemistry!

The title makes a wonderful point about there not being an I in nihilistic.. It´s like there is no I in teamwork.

I watched this on a 3 by 6 inch chunk of metal. Hold on, gotta try something

Jonathan is from St Pancras, London.

In so many ways this man reminds me of the fictional character "Arthur". Hilarious

At minute 13 he, literally, describes a smart phone. 🤣🤣🤣. Even to the, well-okay, it’s in the pocket on yer arse, but still…

I was a vegetarian for a year as a teen and just had an unhealthy diet as I didn’t replace the meat with anything. Then i ate a leftover bit of bacon off my friends plate... completely forgetting I didn’t eat meat. I gave up.

05:10 for "-because it makes you harder to look at."

Now there's a charming face...

Been watching a lot of Dylan Moran lately, this might be the first interview where the host was actually able to handle Dylan. 6:03 moment, dear god. Imagine making Dylan effin Moran lose it completely

Black books is legendary

So he's 50 now? I feel so old. I love him though.

“Defined by my preference in tubers”!!!!

Can't believe he was only 35 in this. By God, I'm getting old!

Dylan predicts the iPhone!

Yeah I'm waiting for a smartphone too. Ever since my last one broke.

Did he, at the end, just predict the smartphone before Steve Jobs?

Legend!

I can't stop watching Nigella's face @11.07

I am him, now. I was the kid that he was talking about and now I'm him, talking about kids.

Dylan Moran was a snack 😍 never seen him so young

I like how Jonathan actually entertained him. I find Jonathan kind of annoying but this was really good!
