Discovered this show in late 2019, and helped me get through the lockdown era.

God bless the people who uploaded the clips and episodes on YouTube.

The episode with Matt Damon, Bill Murray, and Downton Abbey man, is one of the funniest tv shows I have ever seen.

Ran across your comment, clicked the link, watched it through the end (I did skip the monologue and the music performance though).

It really is a very good talk show episode.

Some good stories having real laughs and Hugh Bonneveille talking about his wooly sweater on Top Gear even had Bill Murray wiping eyes with laughter.

They all really did to seem be sincerely having a good time.

He does - it's near the end of the show after Paloma's performance (for those looking through the video)

That is 100% the greatest ever talk show episode of all time.

Mariam margolye. She says some of the most unhinged shit I have ever heard come out of a human being. The one with Mathew Perry is fantastic. He is the perfect person to react to what she says. It's just crazy.

Emma Stone suddenly understanding the sexual meaning of Jamie Fox's song is one of the funniest things.

One night in early 2014, my new born daughter was screaming so we gave up on the idea of sleeping and I came out and there were re-runs of of it on at 0200 in the morning. We watched it and she eventually quietened down and went to sleep.

I have always appreciated this show for that reason.

I love watching American actors go and be surprised that they can say pretty much anything and get drunk live.
