For real. Me, as well. 💯 I would still get salty here and there before that I was doing stuff like this 30 years ago, and now all of a sudden it's popular in Internet mainstream culture. But, I was a Tom Green fan in junior high. The Tom Green Show was one of the best things that I looked forward to at that time (along with Attitude Era WWF and WCW).
@@Dev-In-Denver123 In Japan. Cause the Japanese tend to not bring so much attention to themselves and are generally respectful. They usually keep to themselves, and the stuff Tom did is like out of the norm. You seen how a lot of them was looking at him. America on the underhand, especially in New York City, there’s tons of coo coo for coco puffs people.
@@Dev-In-Denver123 been to japan more than once, and this isn’t true. I cringed the whole time watching this, because no one acts out in Public in japan. People are very to themselves. It would be very rare to see and tom Greene is simply being an obnoxious asshole
@@doorknob4029 Not sure when being "Non-Political" has ever stopped Gen Z, but tell that to every comedian who has had any female or racial joke from 15yrs ago dug up for no reason whatsoever. The fact you put Eric Andre in the same category as Tom Green is pretty telling though. You might as well put classic SNL on the same level as Tim and Eric if thats your standard.
After revisiting a bunch of Tom videos, I think I see him in a different light than I did during my childhood (where I was purely just entertained) - the man’s entire shtick is that he wants us to stop taking ourselves so goddamn seriously. Thanks for the reminder, Tom.
@@ListenToPumpkinMusic Like any type of "art", the meaning is what you take from it. I actually agree with the original commenter that Tom tries to make light out of serious situations, hence, going to a serious city like Tokyo and fucking around. Also, you don't understand the meaning of irony. "The expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect." Sure, Tom is an ironic guy, but how is the comment ironic? You're the missing the point, IRONIC. lmao
@@ListenToPumpkinMusic YES!! 100% Correct!! So many Zoomers today completely miss the mark on this style of comedy. There truly is NO hidden meaning. Much comedy was like this during the 90s, its more Absurdist than anything. No reason or rhyme. Just playing with the old comfort zones of repressed Japanese and embarrassing them.
Tom Green seriously cures my depression and makes me forget the seriousness of this world. He makes me realise to chill out and have a laugh , stop taking things so seriously. Tom Green you’ll always be the reason for my happiness since I was a kid . Thank you so much
@@Medieval_Pheasant And what about America who has its fingers in every part of the world and is constantly at war? How about you f4t f6ck burgers being polite?
friggin' randy with the backgammon boards and lightrails dropping the ball every god damn time when the show's about to kick off in the clarinova with the hockey sticks
before there was Conan, before there was Jackass, before there was anything about pranks or bothering random people on tv, there was The Tom Green Show!
@@donaldbarton6701not that I know of one day I'll get him to clue in. He did some stuff after Tom greens house, last I checked he was like a polyamorous dog man van life vlog guy??? haha at 45? idk haha was encouraging people to meet him on his travels. Trust me I thought of tracking him down as a gag just to ask, if I really wanted to I could I live in Canada and have some 6th degree relation to his family but it's a lot of effort and i'd definitely want to document it haha
I always love this special, it's Tom at his best! @ 6:07- 6:13, Tom's laugh is HYSTERICAL! It has an almost snooty quality to it, but it still never fails to make me crack up, especially when he then follows it up with "YOU FELL ON YOUR BUM- BUM! YOU FELL ON YOUR BUM- BUM!" The very first time I saw this special, the intro @ 6:32- 6:37 made me say out loud, "Oh, this is gonna be good!" Nobody can annoy people (Intentionally) like Tom! Maybe after this, they should have had a special where Tom goes to London and turns his attention on those English guards that can't ever laugh or smile! The part with the "Japanese snow monkeys" (They're technically called Japanese macaques) is absolute gold! Though, in all seriousness, Tom and his crew are lucky they didn't get mauled while filming that.
Yeah Tom really plays up the obnoxious, clueless foreigner here to a hilarious extreme. When he whips out the megaphone to laugh at the guy falling on his bum-bum I just lose it.
When he was new and people didnt know who he was or what he was doing was the best,, such great shock value it was hilarious. People are crazy now I wonder how far he could get with people now?
This was the late 90s, we still had time.. in the us at least when sep eleven hapepend.. that just made super serious..and by the 2010s our obcession with japan and work culture took us over. Funny to see this now as an adult from when i was 7, but Japan was really us in the future. In the subway scene when he is making noise and singing, everybody there is way too serious. In New York in the 90s he would of had a sing along but todays gentrified new york he would have been looked at like a consp theorst. But if he did that in mexico city subway he would have had a good pop. But yeah the world really looks dark today, maybe 2020 changed that and made us refelect. But Tom Green show hits a different way when you see this episode and how much the world in the US has changed for the worse.
Shortly before my weed days when I was young, I watched this. And to this day, not much has ever made me laugh so hard in my life. My point being, if I was high I probably would have died.
More of a profound enlightenment of the human psyche than it is humorous. TG is a more than just a comedian. The man is a poet of human behavioral sciences.
I love how whenever tom realizes someones english isnt great he just switches to talking straight nonsense to confuse them "Yes sorry i just thought randy from constantinople was coming over here with the backgammon boards full of lentil soup"
