Jimmy Carr Sketches

[kacper1194]

It takes the Americans so fucking long to get his jokes :D

[Xelon6k]

Jimmy - Some people think I'm homosexual because I'm English and i dress in this way"

Audience - AWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!! MY GAWRD!!!!!!

Worst audience ever

[cungle]

everyone has different sense of humour. just because people don't find the jokes funny doesn't mean they are stupid

[OLLYINWARDS]

The Americans can't handle Jimmy. (or understand his jokes!!!!!)

[Ghoundai]

@OLLYINWARDS Ahem. I am from Philly PA USA. I am an American and I find Jimmy Carr HILARIOUS!

[OLLYINWARDS]

@Ghoundai I meant the audiences in America on these shows.

[CaptainAmerica322]

@OLLYINWARDS

Not sure about that...

[OLLYINWARDS]

@CaptainAmerica322

Sure about what exactly???

[CaptainAmerica322]

@OLLYINWARDS

Well, you made a statement, and i said I wasn't sure about that statement, so what do you THINK i'm not sure about? Clearly I'm not sure about "The Americans can't handle Jimmy. (or understand his jokes!!!!!)" seeing as I AM American, and am a huge Jimmy fan, and understand all the jokes.

[destined2sleep]

@OLLYINWARDS Absurd statement. Piss off!

[hrolvnir]

@OLLYINWARDS excuse me, but i am an american and i object to that assertion.

[BlankSpace111291]

...Why all the hating on America? -_-... Just because all the famous American's are fucking morons *coughcoughJerseyShorechoughco­ugh* doesn;t mean that all of us are, British humor and American humor are just different, so some jokes won't be processed right away, or they're just jokes about something we DON'T make jokes about over here. Calling all American's stupid is like calling all British people polite and snobby (Which seems to be the case actually, after looking at some comments.)

[jdotpenneyatcomputer]

@BlankSpace111291 No he's right most americans are stupid. Maybe not you but about 80% or more definitely are.

[BlankSpace111291]

@jdotpenneyatcomputer I honestly disagree...its more like 60% -_-". I hate to point that out,but sometimes it does seem that way.But you can't really judge an entire society on the actions of a few.A lot of us may seem to stupid to other countries,hell a lot of us seem stupid to ME, but no matter where you are there are different people and different people learn differently or see differently or just think about things differently.I do have to thank you for not automatically labeling me though.

[destined2sleep]

@jdotpenneyatcomputer You are unbelievably stupid to think that, let alone post it on the internet. Do you honestly think you have the knowledge to come up with a statistic like that (80% or more Americans are stupid) AND stamp fathoms of obscenely misguided moronic lunacy on it by foolishly stating that 80% or more are "definitely" stupid? Since there are so many many things wrong with your ludicrous statement I can only leave you with this,"The only definite fact here is your own stupidity."

[Sabre809]

Such an amazing Comic.

[SkyStained]

I love the delayed reactions on the Late Night Show :)

[ramirezz101]

@SkyStained

Americans are fucking retards that don't get the jokes lol

[SavantOnASpinet]

@ramirezz101 I get them. :(

[ramirezz101]

@SavantOnASpinet

congrats. You are now the smartest American in the world.

[Cybergig00]

I am American

I am watching this

I am enjoying this

Your comments about how stupid Americans; Makes you sound like a stupid American.

[jonboyjon1976]

@Cybergig00 Sorry we have a few who like to make generalisations, and forget the US gave us Carl Sagan and Arthur Miller

[sayanroy36]

@jonboyjon1976

dude, their is very little doubt that the country in general is more ignorant, less bright and less accepting than most in europe.i would like to see carr making those creationist and catholic jokes in the bible belt this isnt exactly sweeping generalization, there's plenty of evidence out there...ofcourse there plenty of people who dont fall in the category, but that dont change the general scenario

[solidc213]

If he really did that QI part without cheating he is my hero. So awesome lol

[nickshel]

"happy birthday mum"

[JustValeriefy]

@6:38 Cameron, please put your middle-finger back were it belongs...

And I assure you, there's not much light there.

[StephenMulq]

1:20 OMG BOOBS

[JaMiEbHoY2011]

lmfao ! total living legend

[gingergiblet]

that dumb cunt next to whatsherface on jonny ross is a cunt kapiche?

[MrsAntonsen]

bloody brilliant!!!

[brotherdarek]

The tampon joke is one of the funniest I've ever heard...heard it first on Just for Laughs.

[brotherdarek]

The tampon joke is one of the funniest I've ever heard...

[p0tat09]

British and American humour are so different!

[pink0leopard]

Cameron Diaz gave Jimmy Carr the middle finger at 6:38..Not Nice!!

[jerryhello100]

I want to become a comedian, and Jimmy Carr is so good that he's an inspiration; for the same reason he discourages me.

[m3erw]

1:22 - Robert Webb?!! lol

[walkerneo]

I SAW WEBB

[kamatej]

jesus christ, conan's audience is shit...

[mark09bailey]

it always takes the american a few seconds to get the jokes b4 they start laughing

[GTinATL100]

He's hilarious.

[mitdafocas]

He should be the new david brent in uk's the office!

[Vanja1993]

i am the 300,000 viewer

[gzuss090909]

Thumbs up if you spotted the fly at 1:45

[Darzas]

@gzuss090909 and thumb you down if you haven't.

[christio8p]

Americans just dont get it

there humor is so obvious 

[Artisn]

@christio8p

You didn't live through the 90's in America. Stand-up was dominated by hacks. What humor do you find "obvious"? Baron Vaughn? Patton Oswalt? If you're talking about Jeff Dunham and Larry the Cable guy, than i agree with you. That humor is obvious...trash.

Sweeping generalizations, keeping us from realizing we're all human since the beginning of man.

[The1quaresma7]

@christio8p their humor?

and i do get it. don't generalize.

[ImNotAStarWarsFanboy]

i love seeing british comedians find success in america

[vict0r1ous]

huge forhead, low brows

[ahmedeox]

Man, the american audience is so slow. Maybe they need a "fuck" thrown in a sentence to realize it's the punchline.

[NMtB4ev4]

genius

[theworldGodonlyknows]

ant looks good in glasses and that suit

[phenomcon]

woah ant in a comedy sketch

[ashburnhouse]

What's with the American Bashing? "American's don't get irony?" "They are slow?" The same insipid assertions could be made about the English footballer culture, Jordan, and... I don't know... Salford? Every country has its trash.

[666PunkDrummer666]

@ashburnhouse America just has the most...

[BlackWolf020]

lol that Irish joke was Classic, this man is HILARIOUS

[SmileyFace6796]

I wanna go watch him live So much!!!!

[MarekUtd]

This is a rip off of Australia's Good News Week...GNW is way better!!!!

[RevNTheogen]

@MarekUtd You mean the show that bought the show format from the BBC? I like GNW too but shows like Have I got news for you and Mock the week are generally a hell of a load funnier in my opinion.

[honeyjv]

Jimmy Carr is defo one of the best comedians out there imo!

[getaddictedtothis]

i don't understand why the american audience at the start sounds so much more disapproving than an english audience xD

maybe it just shows american audiences aren't used to people being blunt? (which, without a doubt, Jimmy is.)

[KingDowdy]

"Put Smarties Tubes On Cats Legs, Make Them Walk Like A Robot." Actually Genius!! LMFAO

[49Ibanez]

woh,  jonathon ross' hair!!!! :L

[JUNKGEE83]

7:03 Amazing! He must have an IQ in the area of 140

MENSA

[mossmusic]

Americans DO take longer to get intelligent jokes. Before the hate starts I AM American. So I can talk! LOL Jimmy Carr is great though. Thanks for the upload!

[MrGrevy]

@mossmusic Shut the hell up retard.

[mossmusic]

@MrGrevy As I said, another idiot american. Dümß@$§ LOL

[MrGrevy]

@mossmusic YOU are the one who can't back up their points. Your comments are laughable. Thanks for being your own punchline.

[MrGrevy]

@mossmusic Just let us know when we need to bail out the Euro!! HAHAHAH Freaking turd.

[mossmusic]

@MrGrevy Who cares about the Euro. I use dollars like you, dumbass. Plus I don't think Europe needs your welfare checks anyway. LMAO@U cunt

[MrGrevy]

@mossmusic Try picking up a newspaper sometime my tv educated friend. We're bailing out the Euro! Don't let the facts get in the way of you unjustified and laughable sense of superiority!

[mossmusic]

@MrGrevy again, get the crap out of your ear. I could care less about the euro. since we are bailing out ireland, I can't see why it should help. it is doing just fine on its own. is that the only news your simple text 3rd grade childrens paper has? u plan on living in europe? i doubt you would last long away from your mommy and same-sex partner.

[sirbestnameever]

@mossmusic wtf r u on "I could care less " I think you mean I couldnt care less, not I could care less know one knows how little or much you care and mommy isnt a word it mum ok not mam or mim or mem. IT FUCKING MUM! LEARN TO SPEAK!

[leckerwurstbrot]

@sirbestnameever

Always funny to read a lecture on the english language (read: trolling) from someone who clearly doesn't have a fucking clue what spelling, diction, grammar or punctuation are all about.

Thanks for the chuckle, mate.

[sirbestnameever]

@leckerwurstbrot how would you know how to spell or use grammar when you'r hole country cant even form a common phares

[leckerwurstbrot]

@sirbestnameever

Interesting question. Though I do wonder what lighthouses have to do with the matter - being, of course, the english translation of the french word 'phares'. Other than that, I really don't know what you are actually talking about.

Really, not the most eloquent comeback I've ever heard.

[sirbestnameever]

@leckerwurstbrot my space button dosnt work all the time

[leckerwurstbrot]

@sirbestnameever

Nor, it would appear, does your e, s, k and apostrophe button; or any of those usually associated with any of the other major punctuation marks.

Word of advice: Don't go 'round telling people to learn to speak before you've got a new keyboard. Or a basic grasp on the english language.

[LookLoveShoot]

lmao. only english people say "winky".

[LLOYD19851012]

i think jay leno is a prick. thats just me

[finnishdude88]

@LLOYD19851012 im with you, leno can suck my big one

[daddyrizla]

@LLOYD19851012

I'm sure he would take that comment on the chin : )

[EyeSea4VseMoHajaEsAi]

@LLOYD19851012 No, it's not just you.

[mguygh]

@LLOYD19851012 ha not just you mate!

[Sabre809]

@LLOYD19851012 I second that, have you seen his stand up?...Terrible. Just shows that its all about who you know.

[heftybullzak]

the QI thing was AMAZING

[Fleureeee]

Haha when I heard the shocked reaction from the audience, I knew it was in America :p

[florencelovme]

@Fleureeee hahaha! I find it hilarious how "prude" Americans are.

[ShaolinDeadlyGamers]

@Fleureeee and the lack of knowledge that a place named Chernobyl even exists

[rysamhurley2009]

theres tits in this video 1:19 lol...........and isnt Jimmy Carr from Ireland, you cant tell by his accent but i heard it somewhere

[zciweiksim]

dane cook sucks this guy is 1000000000000000 x better

[Weslo2]

omg the audience was so stupid at 5:17

it took them long to get the joke

lol!

[probemunky]

the americans are so slow to get the jokes. wow.

[Palegoat]

@probemunky You're an idiot.

[probemunky]

@Palegoat eh how am i? it's very true. watch the uk version and you'll see the difference. im not an idiot. im not saying americans are stupid. it's just the difference in humour. every person is different. you palegoat are the idiot.

[Palegoat]

@probemunky You assume that Americans don't "get" jokes as fast as Brits. You're a snobby fuck tard.

[probemunky]

@Palegoat hahahaha ok mate. what ever. your going to go attack all the comments below this that say the same thing too then. shut the fuck up mate. im not saying americans don't get the jokes. im referring in the difference. it's almost as if there not sure if there allowed to laugh. where as in britain we laugh at everything. specially if were not meant to. chill the fuck out doll.

[MrGrevy]

@probemunky stfu

[PurpleFunnyChocolate]

Excellent video, great clips used. Great job.

[Musseduss]

You can hear on the reactions from the audience in that first clip that it's in america. xD

[atomicmrpelly]

I know, its so funny to hear how different they are from British audiences!

[waaatwat]

@Musseduss: They laughed at the Jay Leno show though. It probably varies crowd to crowd. Strange that people sigh and groan since America is the country of Carlin and what not.

[magsantug]

@waaatwat a lot of it is probably recorded too.

[scrax6]

@Musseduss no fair i think jimmy carr is funny

[ryai458]

@Musseduss and that it says USA

[lucifermartin]

Haha ..look what can happen when you apply yourself ....

[pthompson2010]

aside from the campaing stuff, my latest video gives a pretty accurate take on the whole Conan Vs Leno issue. I think we've completely missed the point. Critique my video if you like, I'd be much obliged.

[louisaandrews23]

I love jimmy carr and want to have his babies!!

[mort1122]

yanks are too dumb to get his jokes lol

[PsychedelicSodaCan]

yep, definitely.

[Dacijo]

and thats why the word gives u thumbs down

[Weslo2]

his jokes are funny, and they are really creative

I bet you're one of these people who think Dane Cook is hilarious screaming on stage etc

Jimmy Carr is a classy yet edgy act

he is very creative, and has even performed his brand of comedy in front of the queen

and that takes guts

[jimmy2k4o]

@Weslo2 took guts to perform in front of the queen bet he didnt have the guts to do his princess diana joke there tho :D

[ruudiluca]

boobiez at exactly 1:20

[mrchimp2k7]

anyone elses audio fail?

[169254xx]

Most Americans are stupid, unfortunately.

[ShawdowRaptor]

Why do we have a higher graduation rate?

[linceed87]

your schools are easier...

[ShawdowRaptor]

higher engineer rate as well? bahaha.

[TheTatterdemalion2]

It's interesting, he used the "Put smarties tubes on cats legs make them walk like a robot" idea as part of his act when he was on Live at the Apollo in 2007.

[AtheistMovement]

Yeah well it was in his act first lol. He obviously just thought of it and saw if it worked with the letters he had and it did.

[B4DBOY06]

christian slater takin piss out of johnny vegas LMAO

[kennymertzi]

@B4DBOY06 That was F'in hilarious.

[alexandrelejoly17]

aww poor americans couldn't take the cuss word lol

[Szaam]

christ, the "fucking me in the ass" joke got a right reaction! over-reaction maybe?

[cmwissy]

I don't like how he pronounced it the American 'way' he usually pronounces it 'arse'.

Perhaps he was a little bit nervous.

[Szaam]

i think he adjusts the language in certain bits so americans are more familiar with it. but it's better the english way :)

[kennymertzi]

@Szaam ive seen some stand-up's done by Jimme Carr in the US and frankly i the majority doesnt get the jokes.. the laughes is always delayed by a few seconds and it feels like they are too "bad" yano. Americans are the most Political correct nation in the world. Only Blacks can joke about black , jews can joke about jews and so on there. To bad acctually.

[theboywithwings]

yeah i agree with what you said completely.i am american and its true we are way to concerned about being politically correct that people dont laugh at any race jokes. if u say anything about anybody your getting sued.

[AtheistMovement]

It's not nerves lmao, it's basically pandering but it's out of courtesy and it's smart.

I mean I'm British and I naturally say 'ass' anyway but that's just my accent, I'm from South Wales, on the border. Right between England and Wales so it sounds half and half and things like ass sound American.

But it's just like... Using the word sidewalk because naturally most Americans wouldn't know the term 'pavement' because Americans aren't exposed to Britain anywhere near as much as visa versa.

[cmwissy]

It just seems like he's selling himself to them and forgetting his accent.

[theboywithwings]

lol that is the dumbest thing ive ever heard most americans wouldnt know what pavement is are u kidding me?

[mcsammer4]

cause they dont call it a pavement retard

[theboywithwings]

im from the US and we do use the word pavement i dont get how u can think we wouldnt

[mcsammer4]

sorry you use the word pavement but most people say sidewalk

[theboywithwings]

yeah just because almost every american including me uses the word sidewalk doesnt mean we dont know what pavement is

[mcsammer4]

i really couldnt care less about this but it is becasue few people use pavement so it is taken as a genral stereotype that nobody does

[theboywithwings]

yeah i get what your saying its just i had no idea that was a stereotype about Americans so it was surprising to me that u don't think we know what it is

[mcsammer4]

good stuff :D

[PsychedelicSodaCan]

Sidewalk?

[holyvalentine]

i like this guy

[Bosshlover]

i'm seeing him on the 10th ^_^ . he's hilarious.

[1990ricky1990]

lol "how the bloody fuck would you know?"

[michaeljefferies909]

@1990ricky1990

[AliasNeo92]

The american's seem to take longer to get the jokes. No offence, just an observation.

[ComradeJon]

simple, because they are thick as shit.

[Rocketeer1001]

Doesn't change the fact that communists take more shit than a septic tank.

[ComradeJon]

and whats that got to do with americans being slow? in fact I dont even recall or re-read anything communist about what i said.

[Rocketeer1001]

Mate, you made a generalisation that Americans are slow as shit, (and how the bloody fuck would you know, have you worked and lived there?) so I'm just returning the favour. No need to feel mad or anything.

[ComradeJon]

its not a generalisation its been proven on god knows how many occassions, and yes i have worked and lived there so try and know what you are talking about, and I'm british, NOT russian/chinese or any other communist state, so perhaps YOU could quit your own generalisation and learn to listen.

[Rocketeer1001]

Yes and I have worked and lived in Russia and China so of course I know what I am talking about and YES it is a proven scientific fact that communists take more shit up their rabbit behind more than the septic tank. It is also a scientific fact that communism reduces the skull size of a human being, as proven by Darwin's observations. So get your head out of your arse and learn a few fucking things before you open your mouth you uneducated chav.

[ComradeJon]

so if im the chav, how come it takes me little more than a minute to reply to a comment, and this one took you over a week to even formulate?...i rest my case and to be quite honest I think the growing thumbs down on your irrelevant comments speaks for itself, have a good day sir because quite frankly it just sounds like your trying to push your own inadaquencies onto the russians you pathetic inbred cunt.

[TheRappingPrincesses]

cheese

[ComradeJon]

whats with the "cheese" comment? not that I have anything against it of course lol

[cmwissy]

So - ComradeJon makes a Observation generalization based on said video

And you reply saying something about Communist anal?

Wut?

[AtheistMovement]

lmfao.

[soapybubl]

yeah, no offence, just barbed wire xD

im scottish by the way so i got the jokes as soon as he said them xD

[ChemicalCrimson]

i see what you mean, stories to set them up, or a scenario...but jimmy carr is friggin brilliant!

[thekkl]

@AliasNeo92 Social clash? He's British so it makes some sense.

[kfl21]

@AliasNeo92 what dju mean americans are stupid ?

[AliasNeo92]

@kfl21 No, but you are if you think that's what I' saying. Btw can you not reply to comments that are so old, it's rather annoying.

[pastorrtom]

@AliasNeo92 True dat! Americans are more prewn to prejudice than the british :)

[chebob2009]

@AliasNeo92

The rhythm of jokes is so different across the atlantic. British jokes are usually more subtle while American ones are more obviously set-up. It's not that they don't get them as much- it just took the extra second to figure out where the joke was.

They also take sexist jokes a lot worse in the US, bad decision by Jimmy there.

[kennymertzi]

@chebob2009 The conclusion ov that is that americans have no sense ov irony nor sarcasm.

[ManofManyPasswords]

@kennymertzi No no no, they understand irony and sarcasm, just not in the subtle and sophisticated way in which Jimmy presents his jokes. The American audience is used to watching comedians like Carlos Mencia and Katt Williams, who's jokes a 12 year old could understand. They're simple and straightforward.

[ManofManyPasswords]

@AliasNeo92 Yea... I love Americans but they're not too bright as a whole. But find an American with intelligence and you've got yourself a great person!

[Falconpunch82]

@ManofManyPasswords No, most of us (or at least the greatest minority) are actually normal people. You just think we are all dumb hillbillys because dumb hillybillys draw the most attention.

[ScotsmanTillDeath]

@Falconpunch82 Nah mate, you think you "saved our ass" in WWII and that you could "kick our ass" any day. Basically pure arrogance.

[Falconpunch82]

@ScotsmanTillDeath I guess you didn't even my comment based on your reply. Who is "you"? Me? You have never even met me. How would you know what I think? In your mind "you" is all Americans, but in actuality its just ignorant rednecks from the deep south

[ScotsmanTillDeath]

@Falconpunch82 When i say "you" i mean poorly educated yanks. E.G - the majority of the population. Its true, i can even redirect you to DOZENS who boast how you "saved" us in WWII. I'm sure you think it as well. I'm sure you think "Yeah we have the best army ever. Nobody messes with us."

[Falconpunch82]

@ScotsmanTillDeath Again, you've never met me so how would you know the level of my education, intelligence, ignorance, or my opinions? I encourage you to judge the world's population person by person, and try not to stereotype races or nationalities.
