Seinfeld Interview - Enough Rope with Andrew Denton part 1

[hieronymusboschful]

One of the best things about Enough Rope is watching guests realise they're not just being interviewed by any schmuck. You can see Jerry genuinely respects him by the end of the interview.

[TheGoodBadBringers]

This guys a meatball. I respect him more on Seinfeld

[CollectivePreference]

He carries the interview well

[corinanov]

"Australia is a perfect place". Yeah, except for the rampant racism.

[colin4393]

@corinanov Sorry? What "rampant racism"? Please, elaborate.

[fLcGambit]

preeettyyy, pretttyyyy goooood

[MrDaGeil]

Jerry is funny in a skit situation. I used to be laughing no end at Seinfeld, and it wasn't because of the other characters, his responses and facial expressions are actually very funny. But I don't think as highly of his stand up comedy. I think you'd have to know what he's talking about or where he's come from to find that funny, and to honest I think that's the case with most comedians.

[alZiiHardstylez]

@MrDaGeil Without a good supporting cast, Jerry would be nothing.

[BenGriffithsReviews]

@alZiiHardstylez What you have to understand is that Jerry wrote much of that dialogue, and rather than being selfish and giving himself all the good lines, he was willing to give a lot of the funny dialogue away in order to make the SHOW funny, not just himself.

[ollyfun]

Seinfeld is brilliant.He deserves all the accolades that are given to him.

[artsfestoriginals]

my cuntys

[zapkvr]

The Bee movie wasn't even all that funny. Jerry is a freaking genius but I hope he stays away from movies. Ricky Gervais should do the same thing. His television is the funniest thing that has ever been aired ever. His movies however, suck.

[todosbien]

enough rope? what a stupid name for a show!

[mcnesta80]

@todosbien Wow...you managed to hang yourself in one and a half sentences. That's a new record.

[zimfromBM]

bee movie was shit.

[tomglue83]

I know for a fact that Australia is very multicultural being that I live here, that sounds so stupid you say we are not because we have a lot of British descendants. You are forgetting things such as blended families and immigrants. You don't know what your talking about you wank.

[Axl207]

@tomglue83 aussies are racists

[tomglue83]

@Axl207 good lot of premises for your conclusion....

[Axl207]

@tomglue83 ya i know a racist when i see one and aussies are fuckin racist hillbilies

[tomglue83]

@Axl207 Hahaahahahahahaha

[duscamry]

@Axl207 fuck you ya black cunt

[Axl207]

@duscamry yeah let me whoop ur ass faggot

[duscamry]

@Axl207 im not letting you near my arse you homo yank wanking cotton picker

[duscamry]

@Axl207 never go full retard...

[TurkeysGoGobble]

@Axl207 Fuck you man, go insult another country

[BLONMONJ3]

'just like australia'

I hope those who are praising him are not australian.

Because how somone can happily ganw on that bone of a cheap flattery and maintain a hint of self respect is beyond me.

[aweinsto]

It's amazing! Take a look:

[afghi420]

Jerry is the man, must be hard to be a successful comedian and be totally clean as well, he was good on Curb your Enthusiasm too, i still watch Seinfeld repeats to this day and get a laugh from them, that show was so well written. Each character on the show was extremely funny, and each episode wasnt just some one liners, they always had a really funny story to go along with it. CYE is kinda like the 'dirty' Seinfeld for anyone who hasn't seen the show check it out, its a very funny show!

[andyplayhouse]

what year was this

[Hairylegs25]

Jerry Seinfeld. I've never NOT seen him do a great interview. Awesome.

[00caldwell00]

I hope youtube decides to bring back the comment "hide" button again..

[scaredyet]

jewish dog

[Cheeko1111]

@scaredyet Go fuck yourself

[moondy11]

good intreview

[webaroos]

Like a limp fish, Seinfeld is not so funny unscripted.

[TheRealFrostie]

i dont like him

[j03l5k1]

@TheRealFrostie seinfield or andrew denton?

[TheRealFrostie]

I dont like either of them particularly, but I'm pretty sure I meant Seinfeld. He's too arrogant and takes himself too seriously to be a comedian. And his observations are horrible and unfunny- but he looks so smug when he makes them.

[j03l5k1]

i like andrew but agree with you on jerry

[Adventurestud]

Yeah, he'll never amount to anything.

[dabble778]

@TheRealFrostie Ooh I can do that too. I hate cool pillows, walks in the park, too many coffee choices, cops who are not corrupt enough. And now I wait for the comments... ;-)

[OS253]

Is this interview in England?

[plypayj3]

that is so racist to the Australian people

[profilescythe]

Believe it or not the Australians are white. I understand how that could have escaped your attention but...

[plypayj3]

dude I am Aussie, and all I was saying is we hate being mistaken for the english

[nammoo89]

Your ancestors were probably brits?

[nammoo89]

Australians have dark skin, but there are a few brits there, who are white.

[andro89]

LOL. You have obviously never been to australia? According to the 2006 census, its 3% aboriginal and torres straight islander(coloured skin) and over 70% of european ancestoral dissent. So yeah, a "few" white people

[nammoo89]

Originally, or at least after the seperation of the supercontinent, there were dark skinned people living in Australia for about 45 000 years, and it`s only recently(from around the year 1800) that the white skinned brits moved/settled there.

Ergo, Australians(those who have resided there for a long time) have dark skin, and those who moved there yesterday(recently), have white skin, ie. the white aren`t really Australians.

[trimw]

The fact that you associate different groups of people based purely on skin colour shows your racist undertones. Get a life mate.

[squeakel]

@nammoo89 No, they're Australians. Australia wasn't even called Australia when it was just aboriginal people. Every citizen is anAustralian (that's a nationality) but people have different ethnic origins.

It's like the US. Any citizen is an American, but people come from different races and ethnic backgrounds.

[MattyJames25]

@squeakel Come on - most Australians are of British descent.

[frankovich213]

@MattyJames25 Yes and no. What I mean is there are not that many Australians anymore who have purely English ancestry. For example, my mum is Australian (English) but my dad is Italian so I'm half-half. My surname is Italian but my friend who's last name is James and seems very Australian has about 8 different nationalities in him.

It's very multicultural here now.

[billsaintkilda]

@MattyJames25 You obviously haven't been to Australia recentlyl

[nammoo89]

@andro89 But the white people are british, i.e. they moved for GB recently?

[j03l5k1]

@plypayj3 how is that racist?

australian (im aussie) isnt a race

[dabble778]

@j03l5k1 :-) I beat my head against a wall reciting that one. Australian isn't a race, or American, English, they're nationalities. It might sound picky to some but that's why we have language :-)

[Patricko78]

@OS253 no ...sydney Australia

[Cem0305]

Powerslide is a POOF himself...that's why he's obsessed with the word and everything GAY. Don't be scared of your red neck dad, Dude...come out. No one's gonna hurt you....hahahaha.LOL!

[pyro4lyf]

God, i love jerry

[pyros411]

To everyone who's flaming on this video's comment thread-

Swearing and raging like that makes you look really stupid. And it's extremely annoying. I'm sick of people doing this, almost every video I see now has some kind of flame war going on underneath it. What you should do is use the fact that you have time to think up an intelligent comment, and see if you can come up with a valid argument for your case without resorting to such low-level bickering. Grow the fuck up.

[berrymanthomas]

lol.

[scaredyet]

@pyros411 get fucked you peice of shit mother fucker

[willzyx1980]

@scaredyet

hey leave him alone fag

[shermohh]

@pyros411 everything you said was good until you, yourself, ruined it by telling people to 'grow the fuck up'..... haha ;)

[BugsnClovers]

@pyros411 I know right? But oh well, they're in the moment so they'll realize they're being idiots eventually.

[SgtJCaper]

up the bunnies!

[kiiiguru]

Don't be such an anti clownite!

[phileustace]

The "comedian's comedian".

Well that explains it.

Nobody finds this JErry fucking Seinfeld

funny . NOBODY. Except for clowns of course.

[Whit3out77]

so why do u watch his interviews?

[NastyDHL]

why do you care?

[huwgojones]

Yeah you are absolutely right. tell us about your illustrious career, we want to hear all about your glittering success stories

[powerslide13]

Clever people find him funny, not retards like you.

[powerslide13]

Your reply proves my theory, doesn't it?

[powerslide13]

Ah, so you're a racist as well as a homofob? Well, it's not a suprise if you take your country's political history in to caulculation.

[phileustace]

Ha ha that really shows your intelligence you fool.

"Sweden" is not a race. You douchebag.

[powerslide13]

Oh but we are, and at the end of this century, our feminism will have spread like a plague through your republic, so that all the men in Italy will aquire a lobotomy and some tights.

[sebbbo77]

Italians are not racist.

[kevin3591]

i think the thing is you mostly see jerry in seinfeld epps and forget there from the 90's and now its 10 or so years on from then. i think he should make another animated movie. bee movie was a good effort but i think if he did another one he would know what to expect and plan better. seinfleds great if he ever toured in england id go see him

[essam909]

i hate this Interviewer

[andytallman101]

how? why? denton is easily one of the best, most professional interviewers ever to grace the face of the earth. what possible reason could you find to hate him?

[qwerty158]

Go on and watch Oprah then

[stockmaster1982]

seinfeld is losing hair..

[lachlan566]

well hes a jew wat do u expect

[211123436]

Do jews loose their hair more often than non jews? Thats interesting...can you direct me to the research where you got that information from please? Or is that just another meaningless remark from someone looking for attention?

[lachlan566]

i didnt say that but i dont know one jew who hasnt lost his hair and i know alot of jews...good enough for u...asshole

[andyszen]

211123436 was completely justified in pulling you up there. What you said could be interpreted as pretty discriminatory. And no, knowing some Jews who have lost their hair isn't really good enough research.

[Gefilta]

It's true I am half Jewish and I've lost half my hair. I went to advanced hair they said they could help me replace it with advance laser tehnology, I said WTF! I only wanted you to help me find it!

[StallminatorFilms]

hes aged sooo much!

[BalkanHop]

Show it's inteligent, not boring. That's inteligent humour. And stupid people dont get it and that's why they find it boring.

[StallminatorFilms]

i'm the stupidest kid you'll ever find and i understand it. its my fav show ever. lol.

[eatthehippies2]

talk about stoopid.

lern how to spel you weeneehed

[Spanishflea1]

Anybody else notice that is interview is...perfect?

Like, usually there are interviews with a few tiffs or disagreements. But this was solid and fluid. Excellent interview in my opinion, good work to both Seinfeld and Denton.

[fivecougarsoz]

because the person being interviewed (Seinfeld in this case) has been given the list of questions beforehand

[supersamuelo2007]

so the bees are the perfect society? Correct me if i'm wrong but aren't the male bees which aren't worker bees thrown out from the hive or killed after they "fuck" with the queen or fertilize the eggs or whatever?

[fivecougarsoz]

i love bees, but i still think that any society with suicide bombers is not a "perfect" society!

[walterreally]

You're right .Or for that matter a society in which one 'village' can attack someone else's house under false pretext which the villagers demand no proof of prior to backing them and then letting them rape the wives of that house, kill itskids and loot its belongings while being supported by the villagers for 8 years. Oh yeah...suicide bombers too.

[FnOzi]

That little bugger "Sir" Andrew Denton, is as sharp-witted and switched on as you will find in any interviewer,anywhere .

His depth of research conducted on a prospective guest is astounding.

Fabulous Australian production.

[FlavorOfUranus]

GO JERRY

GO SEINFELD

[Orcsome]

Haha, Jerry is so tall compared to Andrew.

[6663000]

Yea Jerry isint even that tall of a guy

[roshdoggy]

do u have the rest of the interview?

[Hotsoup42]

this show does the best inteviews

[Aneron88]

i totally agree, best interview that i had ever seen

[MusicManMystery]

These guys are talking about the behive, the perfect worker society

[roloug95]

i luv jerry he is such a funny nice guy

[Syoles]

People are laughing but Jerry is not trying be funny.

[Noffmeistah]

that must feel good:)

[hellomynameis1000]

good interviewer... receptive.

[kahnicles]

one of the best. keep searching enough rope

[harshvgaus]

andrew denton is the best australian interviewer, by a country mile. everyone likes him, except helen thomas.

[kirk7524875248]

I've just discovered Andrew Denton. Wow! What a great great interviewer! I wish there were more like him! Priceless!  I loved the Colin Hay interview as well!

[Homsey101]

mate this dude is so funny.... Seinfeld is close to the best sitcom of all time... it was massive!!!! If you don't like him fair enough but I would make bold statements like that!

[adamhunterprice]

I agree, crumcon probably thinks Carlos Mancia or some lowbrow comedian is funny.

I think most intelligent people can understand Jerry's comedy

[jlebesis]

Go learn some Grammar, then criticise someone else...

[oArtVandelayo]

You're probably a Cook fan aren't you?

[metalguy177]

crumcon, I'm curious? If you hate him so much, how come I see your comments on other Seinfield videos? I mean, if I don't like something, I just dont watch it.

[crumcon]

well thats because Kramer is playing in those videos, Seinfeld himself cant act, he's just a troll

[OceanAndSilence]

he never said he could act, but he can write, and that's why he is where he is.

[mikew909]

jesus whats up with andrews hair? :0

[maccamark01]

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha! funniest comment ever!!!!!!!!!

[danere1]

I reckon Larry King could take a leaf out of Andrew D's book.

Btw, didn't even know this interview took place, thank you very much for uploading it.

[poiuytres]

This is my favourite interview. Thanks for uploading it.

Someone needs to post the Jim Carey interview.

[bodyanti]

"why is a bee funnier than say, a moth?"

I love Andrew D :)

[vandelay1029]

This is fantastic, thank you
