Lewis Black at the 2007 Emmy Awards

[OfficialKrackerJack]

1:24 ELLEN <33

[NSB008]

I love this man..his work is just awesome.

[eqsmooth]

Most of that crowd (actors) are afraid to laugh.

[lastpatriot1776]

@eqsmooth I'm sure they'd like to laugh, but their botox injections prevent them from making any facial movements or expressions whatsoever.

[Riggro]

@lastpatriot1776 hahahahaha I was just about to make a comment like yours hahahahaha

[FisiVisi]

I'm an animator, and I"ve been working in the industry a good 4 years now. I've had my hand in at least 4 different shows and 2 specials. The combined airtime in which my name appears is, I estimate, no more than 4 seconds. And in the span of those four seconds the screen is about 30% it's normal size so the world can know all about the upcoming season of iCarly. So, my heart truly goes out to Lewis for this, thank you sir for fighting the losing battle for all of us cogs.

[AkizMe]

Saw him live a week ago...such a comedic genius!!!!

[Cunanawr]

@AkizMe

Thinkin about watching him when he goes to our city! Did he use new material? Or some of the same jokes?

[nccvball]

@Cunanawr

When I saw him a few years ago, it was mostly new material. Lewis tries to be very topical rather than milk the same old bits.

[theundertaker19]

yo what would happen if keifer sutherland and charlie sheen went on holiday togethor...their would be more drug dealers out of cocaine and more pregnant strippers than the damn country could handle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheHockeyCentral]

Love seeing Kiefer in the background loving every word Lew is saying.

[Audiomancer]

I agree with not being able to see the credits, it's hard to see who the guest stars are.

[avssagar]

I have found Julia Louis-Dreyfus on background. Anyone still losing her?

[JessOnTheRun]

TV commercials are so outdated.... lol.... and true... the credits are important

[gholder]

Oh man, does he look good in that three piece suit.

[Nicsho]

I think if he ever hosted the Oscars, the FCC would have a meltdown.

[heavenshaffer]

See? Real men wear three piece suits.

[RichYan33]

Go Lewis. Other than the completely erratic scheduling that kinda sums up why I don't watch network Television anymore.

[javen8712]

Who is the woman at 2:02? She looks very familiar..

[timninerell]

i thought i was the only one who hates the "crawl" on CNN and other news channels. it's so distracting.

[heavenshaffer]

@timninerell Since I have ADHD, I need those crwals, otherwise I go crazy...no, nut I watch the crawl to avoid the newcasters most of the time.

[NSAshow]

P Diddy in the back

[AndrewDeLong]

Oh the pain he's going through doing this.... Don't say fuck Don't say fuck Don't say fuck Don't say fuck Don't say fuck SAY FUCK!!!!! SAY FUCK!!!!! SAY FUCK!!!!! SAY FUCK!!!!! I feel your pain Lewis, I really do!

[jsut872]

look at bottom right of screen at 1:55 and you'll see the blur that is Jack Bauer, agreeing with Lewis Black

[Z0hann]

Don't say fuck, Don't say fuck, Don't say fuck, Don't say fuck, Don't say fuck, Don't say fuck...

SAY FUCK!

SAY FUCK!

SAY FUCK!

SAY FUCK!

[XShadowsOfTheNightX]

Lewis Black without the fucks. XDD. He's still funny as hell. This guy is so real. :]

[TheLostGuitarist]

hahaha I could totally see lewis black putting on the news to take a nap, and then a blazingly loud commercial goes on for Jersey Shore and he just pops up like "WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK"

[Uhmu45]

I guess he had a fuck ban again, im sure the word fuck was screaming in his head =D

[Mocroskate]

He didn't say fuck 1 time thats rare 4 lewis :P

[NelsonRealTime]

If it wouldn't for people like Lewis Black (i.e George Carlin, Bill Hicks, Bill Maher) sadness would reign supreme...

Lewis, you are without question one of the best if not the best..

And one more thing Lewis....COME TO FUCKING MIAMI!!!!!!!!!!!!! Id pay ANYTHING just to see you perform........

[meshel2u]

I love this guy

[doomsday19821982]

this guy is at his best when he's pissed.

[jmiester25]

the guy at 0:59 looks like my old english professor hhaha

[tuczyn]

SAY FUCK! SAY FUCK! ;D

[soulchild2008]

Fuck fuck fuck, fuck fuck fuck, fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.

Don't say fuck, he said fuck, you can say fuck too!

[heavenshaffer]

@tuczyn He can't!!! He's on family TV!!!

[MetalMessiah1219]

@tuczyn damn straight. :-)

[tehlinebeginstoblur]

I'm always shocked when I see Lewis Black performing at/for things like this. Who honestly though "Wow, the guy who uses fuck as a comma and pretty much bashes anything and everything, we should get to do stand up for a group of uptight assholes OR people are aren't such uptight assholes but are forced to be to maintain their image BECAUSE of the uptight assholes!" I can hear his thoughts "DON'T SAY FUCK! DON'T SAY FUCK!!" Great bits though. Love Lewis Black.

[YannieDon]

You can so see it in his face that he wants to curse... lol

[CSG1986]

So true. Lewis black is my hero.

[nural666]

women also take shit like man...

and they bleed from the ass

[cschmidtler1]

Great, strong, and true ! Similar to George Carlin's way to criticize ! Funny !

[jrd6556]

is that julia louise drefus in the purple up front?

[kismet927]

yea

[Paier]

yea with her husband good eye

[carloz30]

at 3:00 she is like "I hate you" and "Shut up" and give me my Emmy...

[Brianmaycry]

True so true

[XCreena92]

lol lewis black is great,,,HEY i saw ellen and portia!!!

[yianki1020]

haha this man is so cool

[deeluve22]

Who's the chick on the far left @ 1:00? She looks familiar but I can't place my finger on why?

[LizSmiles1]

Lewis Black is awesome. :)

[gatsby7000]

Believe it or not, I only recently discovered Lewis Black. Man oh man.  He is the guy. Just love him now.

[alienshinobi84]

Those points he makes are great. I totaly agree.

[NIGHTMAREuki]

i hope he picks up where Carlin left of, may he rest in peace

[spndxslt]

Those pain in the ass pop ups during a show are one of the main reasons I no longer watch network television. The other is my complete contempt for cencorship, but more on that later.

[23Prospero37]

The man is awesome

[clnow709]

He's so right about the media.

[Metadragonfire]

Jack Bauer's in the back!!!

[SouthParkMaster66]

He must be trying so hard not to swear haha

[DMEB]

i love to watch the rich fucking pricks in the audience who know that they are the puppets of these executives that are too scared to applaud out loud!!!!

[Rserlo]

I love his comedy. I hope he continues his career as a stand up because It's brilliant. I hope to see one of his shows someday.

[Angiindie]

I saw one of his shows live before & he is so much louder in person! It's so great!

[chawk111]

Should not have invoked 911.

[woodscritter]

Why not "invoke 911"? Just a time reference.

Lotsa luck censoring Lewis. May that fail.

[racedude82]

3:15 XD

[Mevlevi1207]

Lewis Black...the most intellectual comic working today!

[TheOldNihilist]

Yeah because George Carlin just died.

[Turismo87]

i guess hes the new george carlin

[medok1515]

George Carlin was his idol, he idolized George Carlin. George was kinda like his mentor, and i'm sure George Carlin is proud of him.

[minorityrules]

TexasRho83 Is A Dicklicker

[ZQPYU]

The most amazing thing about Lewis Black is that he is still Hilariously funny even when he's not able to be himself 100%.

[phanface]

"Fuck, fuck, fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck! / Don't say 'fuck'/ He said 'fuck'/ You can say 'fuck', too!"

[patryklau]

lol i bet he was dying inside to not swear. if he had his way, the line at 0:50 should go "here's a message from all of the viewers: WE DON'T GIVE A FUCK!!!"

[CassandraCain]

Did I saw Dr House at 1:46 ?

[punkboy360]

ya that was him

[andyx1205]

George Carlin

Richard Pryor

Lewis Black

In that order..perhaps bill hicks around there

[johnnysawicki]

he aint the same when he`s not swearin

[ukfard1]

poor lewis, I can tell he wants to swear ^^

[anon9526]

definately.. I love in his routine when he talks about wanting to swear at the congressional dinner that he performed at XD

[SparrowBird94]

the cast of 2 & 1/2 men at ...2:38!!!!

[Dreamerx47]

the Hell is lewis black doing? carlin did like 13 hbo specials and lewis has 2!

[RgSchmitt]

He's the closest comedian to George Carlin...

Gotta love his shows

[KikiAelita]

So...much...RIGHT.

And still hilarious, because you know its all true...

[Seemscool]

lol ^^ So true!

[endfearbringpeace]

woah, he came out of the ground, and is always hilarious!

[chronoman14]

Wow, that's actually very right on! I remember when shows would actually have non sped-up credits and yes, you COULD actually see who was working on the show! And there was no scroll on the bottom of the news channels as well!

[evh5150316]

SON OF A BITCH!!!!! Fucking A Lew! He's 100% RIGHT!

[boardwaybeauty101]

Why don't you just run for office!! LMFAO!! HILARIOUS!!

[chronoman14]

Yeah, kinda like the guys who are running, THIS year! lol

[TSSolaris]

And there are the children....sitting under their desks

[XavierDemitri]

[xyzizzle]

[MatthewLedZepfan]

Man he's hilarious and I can't believe fox let him rant about television like that, lol.

[twista3314]

He's hilarious...I met him once when he came in late to a restaurant I was working at for a few drinks....Real nice guy

[Nekron7777]

I would really like to meet him. That way we could talk about politics and the rest of the world's nonsense together.

[pataphysician66]

I go all "Lewis Black" myself once in a while- he reminds me of myself, and people that I know.

[RMena64]

BRAVO LEWIS!!!! :D

[jerrydoubleu]

I don't subscribe to cable becausse of all the crap.

[archontic]

This is definitely as far from his best material as it gets.

[grungesponge489]

its fox...

[samuraichikx]

i dont know what is so entertaining about listenint to an old man rant

but LEWIS IS FUCKING HILARIOUS! hahaha xD

[IndyX]

"65% of Americans FEEL like they don't have feelings"

[johnnydude87]

"Except come up with bad ideas'? Why don't you just run for office?"

So true! I love Lewis!

[nonamesleftdammit]

Amen, Lewis. I hate those crawls and logos that often cover important parts of the screen. And WTF with the credits being shrunken to one side of the screen and sped up 10 times?

[jszczepaniak]

i just love how he says whatever he really feels. he's not there to make them all laugh, he says what he thinks.

[savior724]

i nearly drop tears when he said that we the ones who work on the show, deserve to see our name in the credits..thank you.

[soyouwantacookie]

lmao! Lewis Black is a ranting idiot and i love him! best moment 1:45, hugh laurie! :)

well go lewis black once again your finger pointing has taught us all a valuable lesson.

[drivepro]

Awesome.

[PirateOfTheInternet]

Look at all the losers in the audience who aren't laughing. Those assholes are obviously in their own dreamworlds.

[scmspender]

now that is funny.

[malmcmac]

You can always tell which celebrities were born with out a sense of humor when they pan the audience while Lewis Black is telling his jokes.

[sounik1]

GOD BLESS THIS MAN. I love him. LEWIS BLACK FOR PRESIDENT!!

[Love4JonStewart]

::swoon::

I swear to god that man is my hero.

I can't honestly tell you how frustrating it is when they speed through the credits or play something else while they roll. I can't tell you, but he can. :)

God I idolize him...I really do.

[667mumble]

Amen Lewis!

[mrsir4]

LEWIS BLACK IS IN EVERY SHAPE AND FORM BETTER THAN DANE COOK...Cook isn't even remotely funny...he had this one joke where he was like "you ever have those days where you CRY...and no matter what happens you just can't stop CRYING" and everyone is all "durrrhurhur story of my life! this guy is funny!!"...C'mon I have had farts that are funnier than Dane Cook...and on that note I must say...Lewis Black is the man, he is like God for comics, "thank you, and good night" (Quoted from Lewis Black)

[TheGodKingSatanX]

a wide on is a female version for a hard on?

[TheGodKingSatanX]

i'm proud of lew, telling all the hollywood gliteratis and tv execs to shove it.

[invisigothgrl]

is it wrong for me to have a wide-on for a man a few decades my senior?

[Pwalkr518]

not in this case haha

[Woohoo5241]

Not at all, my man. Not at all. :-)

[LuisManuel316]

Wide on?

[Hervorragend604]

It's like he read my mind and gave voice to my thoughts! And the meta-comedy at the end is priceless. Lewis Black Rules, Dane Cook is too dumb to Drool.

[gregor87]

tick tick tick tock we got a bunch of fuckin' idiots, anyone who thinks Dane Cook is in any way shape or form better than Lewis Black is probably nothin more than a gruesome cum dumpster.

[stumpyninjacow]

am I the only person who likes Dane Cook and Lewis Black? Lewis Black is better though.

[sauron9990]

dane cook sucks man.

Lewis Black is so much better

Rodney kills them all though

[Hervorragend604]

Yeah, you might be. At least you can tell that Black is superior to Cook; so you're not completely crazy.

[stumpyninjacow]

XD crazy is about as close to me as you can get. Meh I like the guy who makes words up and the guy who has lost his mind, what can you say?

[Hervorragend604]

Well, to each his/her own, I guess. Although it's hard to believe you could actually like Cook *and* Black; they're at such opposite ends of the spectrum to me.

[stumpyninjacow]

yeah I see what your saying. I guess I like variety. But like I said if I had to choose between Black and Cook, Black is defiantly better.

[Hervorragend604]

Yeah, I guess I can repsect that; variety is very important. The spice of life, according to some people.

[stumpyninjacow]

am I the only person who likes Dane Cook and Lewis Black? Lewis Black is better though.

[Dogheadj]

You're absolutely right. Lewis is my favorites comedian. Dane Cook is good for nothing but making up words and shouting. He's a no talent bum.

Lewis Black forever!

[msaint41]

I love Lewis Black! He says want we all are thinking; well, most of us with common fuckin' sense.

[CmanExperience]

yea and all dane cook does is kick imaginary things on stage and make up gay words like "funsies" and "deliciousness." lewis black has talent so shut up

[ooohwoot]

Out2Kill6

Go suck a fucking dick. You just can't appreciate it because you're a fucking moron.

[greenandgold07]

you fucking suck, Lewis black is King

[lilhays06]

i'm gonna blow ur gay ass out of the water with this question, WHY R U WATCHING THIS IF YOU DONT THINK IT IS FUNNY AND/OR DONT AGREE WITH THE CONTENT?

[quakingaspen23]

I think he's funny even when he doesn't cuss!

[Vizard07]

he isn't himself when he's not cussing. and those people who didn't laugh doesn't know Lewis Black

[TheLastSinger]

Very hard for Mr.Black to do that without swearing!!

He is truly great

[niemanickurwa]

yeah he did well lol

[bapyou]

Bunch of Hollywood stiffs. (Phrase bears repeating.)

[kannastarr]

I saw House. >] I love it. I fucking love it. I love you Lewis Black!

[bapyou]

Half of Black's comedy is his use of language. In a stiff setting like this, he's not allowed to let fly with the curses and invective, and he comes off stilted. I like it better when he's allowed to let it all hang out and curse like a sailor. He's an f-ing genius comedian. He maketh me lie down in green pastures of hilarity. Lewis is the man!

[zeeman155]

Indeed good sir, indeed!

[boomcity312]

you complain about his lack of cursing and then you censor yourself. heh

[bapyou]

Who's censoring what?

[boomcity312]

"He's an f-ing genius comedian"

[bapyou]

Well, I didn't censor myself. That's exactly what I wanted to write. Pffft!

[lazyperfectionist1]

Yeah! F-ing Pffft! Everybody join in!

[boilerpsycho]

you're an idiot. i know the line "maketh me lie..." is supposed to sound poetic. but it doesn't. it shows that you have little knowledge of middle or early-modern english.

[bapyou]

Why am I an idiot? I don't think that the phrase "maketh me lie..." is poetic at all. If anything, it's a cliche. It's from the Bible.

You're right about one thing, though: I don't have that much knowledge about Middle or early-Modern English.

But I know one thing about you: You should review of the modern English rules of capitalization! Internet idiot.

[boilerpsycho]

the rules of internet usage vary greatly from those of print/speech. common internet practice means a person doesn't have to use capitalization.

what makes your most recent post so funny is that you chide me for not using caps, and yet your consistency in doing so leaves much to be desired.

why did you capitalize "middle" and "modern?" those don't need to be capitalized at all. on top of that, you didn't capitalize "early." so not only where you incorrect inconsistently. congrats.

[boilerpsycho]

damned youtube. let's try this without getting parts cut out/misconstrued.

so not only were you incorrect, you were incorrect inconsistently. congrats.

[bapyou]

"the rules of internet usage vary greatly"

There is no such thing as "the rules of internet usage". They are the "rules" of lazy bastards who wouldn't know a rule if it poked them in the ass. English is English. Internet "writing" can be so far from standard English that it becomes unintelligible. Three cheers for unintelligibility. Of course you are so cool because you flount the rules of English on the internet. What a short inch. It's the revolution of the lazy rich kids. (Yawn...)

[MarciLynnB]

bapyou wrote: "Of course you are so cool because you flount the rules of English on the internet."

Do you mean "flaunt" or "flout"? Because there's no such word as "flount".

[bapyou]

Thank you for the correction. 'Flout' is what I should have written. Gracias!
