@@iloveneonfrogs3434 get this, he knew he wasn't allowed to talk about the Netflix specials but he did it anyway the absolute madman. No one had told him he wasn't allowed to mention the Netflix specials but obviously he knew and he did it all to sabotage his own career. What a prankster. 10/10
I love how he just feeds of other peoples laughter in a subtle way, just fuels his jokes but somehow seems to help him not crack a smile or even laugh when hes telling it.
@@sofiamirandadd basically he had just gotten a deal with netflix to do his four part special but netflix said he wasn't allowed to talk about it yet. But his manager didn't tell him that part so obviously he talked about it on camera. Then his manager gaslit him into thinking it was all his fault that he spilled the beans even though james literally didn't know he was supposed to keep it a secret. It ended up not being a big deal but I think his manager quit in a huff and made james feel horrible.
I remember this being on and the guy you hear laughing, is Clarke Peters who played Lestor Freeman in The Wire and was in Treme. Brilliant actor, he seemed to take to James in this episode.
There are a lot of us Americans that love British humor and comedians. James Acaster has become one of my go-to comics (along with David Mitchell and Richard Ayoade)... :)
I forgot Joe Wilkinson. I personally don’t find David Mitchell or Sean Lock funny. In fact, I think Sean Lock is the very opposite of funny and often slides right into bitter, old intolerant a** territory.
Anyone that’s seen James’ recent cold lasagna hate myself will know that this exact interview is what partly caused his terrible year. He wasn’t meant to tell them about repertoire, his agent was very unhappy
Mollie Gaden well.. here a good reason for u to try get some tickets. I’m praying that it goes on Netflix. It’s a very long story but he wasn’t meant to say about the Netflix deal just yet so his agent wasn’t happy. If you’ve read his book you’ll know 2016 was an awful year for james
Watching this feels incredible. Most the people watching this I assume are only fans because they saw repertoire. To finally see something where he actually talks about it feels like a gift. Perfect for Thanksgiving :)
James opened his Conan set with the “ready to eat apricots” joke, which is pretty ballsy since Americans do not refer to dried fruit as “ready to eat ___.”
Isn’t James’s Netflix special already out, or is he saying there’s more to come 😳 I’ve watched the first 4 at least 100 times, I’ve waited for new episodes for what feels like forever 🙌🏼
every comedian who pretend to be a new George Carlin should learn from James how to be original and how to not punch down with jokes which is just bullying. Acaster is a champ.
I just watched what I guess was James' first appearance on the Sunday Brunch (they were all dressed like Christmas) and it was awful. This was a way better interview. James seemed more comfortable, and the hosts seemed to actually be interested in their guest.
His style of absurd humour is very appealing. One of the few British comedians with the scope to joke about something other than sex or the relationship between the sexes.
I love how these hosts are clearly just trying to get through the preplanned talking points, but Mr Acaster™️ is just too funny 😂 Every single joke lands, love this guy so much
I think most times that American hosts invite British comedians, the audience is always bad and don't understand British humor. Once it gets online though, and a broader audience engages with the content, people who like the comedian will enjoy it regardless of the host
He's a fucking irritant. Acaster is brilliant, but Tim laughs at literally everybody he talks to. Makes me want to smash my TV in. They've got to be the worst presenting duo in TV history, and when Piers Morgan exists, that's a pretty damning statement.
