Bobcat Goldthwait on Letterman, 7/30/87

[topperheartramada]

his standup doesn't really work because he is noe pretending to be as insane as the guy he played in police academy.

[skylynx2021]

I find him actually pretty funny.

[mookuable]

boo



[ditdacoms]

Ha!

[chuggachuggawoowoo]

Shoy...ummm...because he sucks?

[ShoyAdoy]

Why do I hate this guy so much?

[chuggachuggawoowoo]

Another liberal ass. Let's see what he would do if he were confronted on a subway by FOUR thugs with sharpened screwdrivers. Also, Reagan firing the air traffic controllers was NOT illegal. The air traffic controllers signed a contract agreeing that it was ILLEGAL for THEM to strike, and they did it anyway...THEY broke the law, NOT Reagan.

[rightsideofhistory]

@chuggachuggawoowoo Maybe because liberals have VAST material to pick from with the idiocy of conservatism? 99.9% of comedy is socially liberal or libertarian because redneckism, racism, materialism, religion, & corporate whorism is funny to base material on, because it's not only relevant, it's true and hits the gut because its true. Please post me links to conservative comedy that gets laughs - where the punchlines are actual anti-liberal, and NOT "patriotic chestbeating" (ie. Dennis Miller)

[Cryptically]

he sounds like Fred Fredburger

[aberric]

@Cryptically Billy and Mandy! YES!!

[jjtheslayer69]

hes not funny, he can just make a funny voice XD

[guydeguy]

funny as a crutch

[Jfults23]

that is so what I was looking for'

[noodlesmealey]

Nuclear mullet

[IndestructibleM1nd]

i love bob i love the 80's

[MrJesseSmall]

My hero<3

[noahsark50]

@TheEuphoniousFox he has no hair...

[Dendo1122]

RWJ told you are good... hmmm you proved yourselve! :D

[XXWRD2BIGBRDXX]

is he still alive

[iheartnizmojoe]

american comedy is so shit :/

[ArmenianSnipe13]

@iheartnizmojoe This is from 1987. Get the fuck out of here.

[FluCKoff5]

@iheartnizmojoe and this just came out last week! we are so behind

[darkblighttmo]

god this guy is not fucking funny

[kingkyzr]

I watched your movie "World's Greatest Dad" on Netflix, and it is going to be my honor to purchase it.

Thank you.

[whitepanther84]

THIS GUY'S SMARTER THAN PEOPLE GIVE HIM CREDIT FOR

[funkyflyswim]

Damn, Letterman can't speak with a real comedian, like Bobcat, for more than 30 seconds, but spits all over an ex-model thinks she"s an actress forever.

[verookasw]

Bobcat! I love u! My favourite Zed <3

[thBerzerKer]

Pure GOLD! hahah

[derkabronen]

f**k the cellphon interference!!

[berryyyyyyyy]

Zed <3

[shadowworld86]

I thought the family guy reference was just kidding around...wow

[hobbitninja]

Damn, bobcat one night, Pekar the next, now that's classic Letterman

Well, I guess we still have Jack Hanna

[BillyBopper1000]

i love bobcat goldthwait

[Djangeaux]

Where's the debut on Letterman?

And no, Bobcat didn't rip off Sam. Anyone paying attention knows that BCG hit several years before Sam, and their acts are (other than loud voices) nothing alike. Get over it...

[Djangeaux]

Where's the debut?

[crazyfool333]

Iv seen him on mock and iv recently seen a couple of police and only then did I put the picture together. He's really good

[jeffmaylor]

This act was funnier when Sam Kinison did it. Goldthwait was known in the industry as a little thief. He had no talent, and after Sam died, he had no one to steal from. Thus, we never hear from him anymore.

[jk196082]

@jeffmaylor do some homework. look up both their careers, the timelines - listen to their material, maybe listen to the marc maron interview - and you'll realize what a simplistic statement you've made.

[KingMKLA]

@jeffmaylor Ummm...Wow. You obviously are very misconstrued. Bobcat entered comedy in 1980 Sam Kinison didn't come onto the scene until 1984, and to answer the reason we never hear from him statement. He is busy writing and directing movies. He is still on the scene just not on the stage as often.

[JesseNikette]

Can someone please leak the vid of Bobcat lighting Leno's couch on fire already?

[terryjohn]

@JesseNikette yeah do it..from UK

[ShilaWaah]

"Sorry, Peter, that was Bjork."

[IzabellaRitaSzendi]

His voice is so powerful! I like when he speaksXDD

[ThePurpleMenace]

thumbs up if you think a cameo by Bobcat on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia as Charlie's long-lost brother resulting in an all-out brawl between them would be the most epic thing in television history!

[CantLetTheAngelsDown]

@ThePurpleMenace Oh MY GOD I was just thinking that!

YES They should do this!

[tietheroomtogether]

@ThePurpleMenace That would be epic!! And something involving rats and mallets would be a nice touch

[ChrisWalkenFan]

I just fall in love with him

[denschwaffelaer]

21 people are possessed by the devil

[YuffieRikkuJo]

oh is it just me tht finds him extremley cute and sexy?! xD <3

[unfortunatebeam]

@YuffieRikkuJo errrr....maybe not "extremely" lol

[YuffieRikkuJo]

@unfortunatebeam :O xx

[noahsark50]

@YuffieRikkuJo hes an old man now...

[haroldxmaude]

I really want to go on a date with him. I would do just about anything for that to happen. Bobcat, date me!

[187prettyboy]

@haroldxmaude Yea I would date you too lol

[haroldxmaude]

@187prettyboy Did you mean you would date him as well? Because I didn't say I wanted to date myself, haha.

[187prettyboy]

@haroldxmaude haha not him, i dont swing like that

[KATIEB2008]

I often feel as though my toaster is possessed by the devil.

[TheVladmira]

I love Bobcat! He's so special to me since childhood.

[untypically]

Holy shovel of  Charlie Manson...best bit ever!

[Teetee33]

I forgot how much like Bono Bobcat used to look.  Damn!

[ElCh3aPo]

Not funny. Kinison ftw

[americana420]

@ElCh3aPo kinnison is a poon who couldnt get over his affair

[ElCh3aPo]

@americana420 oh man i'll really take that into consideration when i want advice from a 22 yr old child that never even grew up in that area to know what the fuck your talking about to begin with, not to mention your awesome YouTube profile of being a member for a WHOLE YEAR congrats, and no picture to boot. no channel views. go troll somewhere else fag~<3

[cacoca79]

oh man this guy is a die hard leftist.

[jtrapp2222]

oh sorry that's Bjork

[trek6220]

@jtrapp2222 haha nice

[likedamaster]

Dude's a legend. 

[johnnywad47]

His real name Is Tom Tourette

[filllip82]

Schizophrenia is bad ... anyway he makes me laugh :))))

[thechurchofdave]

Sam is all about indignant rock and roll anger. Bob is all about insecure, neurotic wacky stand up. They are nothing alike at all. Unless you are a film producer and then they are both short,  fatish guys with long hair and outlandish behavior.

Anyone who feels either of these guys are ripping off the other isn't paying attention.

[PieceofMindmusic]

Oh my gawd! It's Pee Wee Herman's, long-lost, PCP-abusing brother!

[AmazonianBeauty]

ROFL.....oh fuck, i loved a lot of the people from the Police academy, that was some surreal shit.....you just don't get this kinda shit today...i miss the 80s

[Michele4884]

His Voice = life

<3

[missyonthanet]

I thought I had issues, but at least my toasters not possesses by a devil- I don't even have a toaster, which makes it highly unlikely for that to ever be an issue for me, so I'm counting my blessings.

check me out at comedyrocks, on gabcast.

[WJFuntingworthIII]

LOL gimme all your money or ill make your glasses really really wobbly

[clyons84]

Nothing more than a Kinison rip off.

[brabon1]

@clyons84 two different acts...and i saw both when they were starting out....bobcat in sf and kinnison in los angeles

[blindingsun]

@clyons84 he's nothing like Kinison you fucking moron

[manna1974]

asambach sakdiev and Boltok the rapist

[jozeki1]

BOSKI AKTOR UWIELBIAM GO

[DoNotBeHighandMighty]

Bobcat's a genius. This is all an "act" and he does weird things because he is "bored." LOL.  Love him.

[TheUnder2010taker]

wtf wtf bad so bad way baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad fuck u fuck u

[chrispjon]

forgot how bad he sucked

[drfoxcourt]

Bobcat Goldthwaite = Grover the Muppet on crack.

[RagdollDude]

World's Greatest Dad was a very good film, so well done to him on that.

[NathansPhase2012]

I met Bobcat at Alex Bennits show on KQAK as a volunteer and hopeful intern (fail lol) . He acts nothing like this obviously in rea life. But it's so funny when he breaks into character. And his old original material was a bit dirtier then his Police Acadamy/Dave Letterman character. He kind of lightens up with the bobcat in police acadamy but it's funny as hell when you're young and it's unscripted. He could come back at ya without a script. very smart guy. Very brilliant.

[DonSlude]

he have the funnyst voice ever. i love it. wish i had it. come over to ur gf parent for the first time. hey im heee here to aaaaaa pick up ur heee daughter

[blunklaura]

A little bit burnt now and then...

i laughed 100% of the way through this!

[ChocoCherryCookie]

Is it weird that I find him really attractive?

[OrthodoxGod]

@ChocoCherryCookie nope

[RAIZEDBYWOLVEZ]

dave letterman is a fucking ASSHOLE.

[fiendfilms]

Bobcat Goldthwait = Pee Wee Herman on Cocaine (HAMBURGERSSSSS) + Jesus on crack

[ansiaaa666]

bobcat is the best!

[lawrencelugar7777]

lol - I love his voice.

[blisswest]

Dont you just love him. x

[americanbonesyx]

lmao i fucking loved this shit when i was like 8...fuckin police academy...

[wowsux97]

Does he really talk like that or is he acting? P.S. Crack...... is wack.

[vancitycanary]

@wowsux97 He's acting. :)

[wowsux97]

@vancitycanary Sounds just like hes really like that.

[NavaeraGreenleaf88]

@wowsux97 He is acting. Love it!!

[LedWilde]

@wowsux97 It's an act. He talks a little more normal than that.

[kortronovitch]

cocain's a hell of a drug

[nakorn86]

remind me of 'tweek' from south park

[THECLARENCES]

Amazing!

xoxo

The Clarences

[Buraion]

he sucks

[wweadx2]

i've always loved the way he sounded like hes getting repeatedly kicked in the balls never fails to make me laugh :D

[CorreyKowall]

twocrows: not enough coke, your low self esteem is manifesting itself as criticism issued at beloved comics with national audiences when your own audience consists of people on youtube.

[twocrowstheironlung]

bobcat: too much coke, not enough friends to tell you you weren't thst good

[PureInsolence90HQ]

woah. he sounds just like pain from hercules. did he do the voice??!

[swatteam772]

yep.

[WarlordJerek]

Yeah.

[Thaldrin]

@PureInsolence90HQ yes -.-

[123moonwolf12]

@PureInsolence90HQ ...yes yes he did

[darkness9994]

@PureInsolence90HQ yes he did

[RazorSharpTM]

@PureInsolence90HQ

Yes! It was him!

[SecretidentityLeon]

@PureInsolence90HQ yep

[february86]

Is this hi def

[FunkDoppler]

Its only funny cuz the video doesnt mach the audio track.

[reinforcedpenisstem]

The 80s had some whack shit.

[cantosprofanae]

@reinforcedpenisstem yeah but the 80s was awesome!!!!!

[reinforcedpenisstem]

@cantosprofanae Yes that's what I meant to express...

[gerryff]

@reinforcedpenisstem love the 80's

[stigler30]

@reinforcedpenisstem The aughts had some whacker shit.

[unfortunatebeam]

@reinforcedpenisstem yeah now people like dane cook make bobcat look like a genius

[ladygodia]

@reinforcedpenisstem I know... your birth was proof of that.

[volksrepair]

I'm a fan of DAVE, but I really LOVED when he actually took the time to talk with the comedians or the bands he liked that closed out his show. Now he really doesn't seem to give a shit - and that sucks.

[wsjohn69]

adam sandler is a conservative... hes pretty damn funny

[BeboAltizer]

gimmie your money, or the glasses get it.

[TheBrando1979]

All these smart people posting here WATCH THE F*ING VIDEO AND MOVE ON

[Coerlin]

Amen, TheBrando - that actually should be hard-subtitled under every video.

[ourangirl1000]

Dude hes not dead!

[SILENTFART540]

R.I.P. BOBCAT

[vika01]

@SILENTFART540  he is alive

[1C7Z3H5X]

its really sad,all the entertainers i thought i used to like ive come to realize are all fucking lefties...theres the real joke.

[wikitdevil]

it's because the righties have no sense of humor let alone can grasp abstract concepts. That is no joke and is quite pathetic. Least you got Dennis Miller if you can understand him. lol

[1C7Z3H5X]

lol,wow,your such a bright little boy hiam

[JustAnotherKeyboard]

Actually there are tons of hilarious conservatives, the difference is they're unintentionally hilarious. People smart enough to write comedy are generally smart enough to see through the cowardice that is conservatism. Although you could always watch Dennis Miller.

[1C7Z3H5X]

ahh yes,i forgot,only liberals are intelligent and humorous.i guess ben stein is just a moron,and yes,youre right,noone thinks dennis miller is funny.i guess his best selling books,his tv shows,movies,sold out comedy shows and widely syndicated radio shows are just a fluke...and cowardice?hey sally,in case you missed it,what with you being so busy being superior and all,about 90% of the military identify themselves as conservative,.so youre saying people who fight for our country are cowards?

[JustAnotherKeyboard]

@1C7Z3H5X Conservatives are the minority in the comedy business, but yes, Dennis Miller (and Adam Sandler) are funny. I do believe most of the stands held by conservatives have to do with fear. They're afraid of minorities, they're afraid of immigrants, they're afraid of homosexuality, they're afraid of other religions. Is this a gross generality? Yes.  But it does seem to be the overall theme.

[JustAnotherKeyboard]

@1C7Z3H5X And Ben Stein is a brilliant moron. You can't be that smart and defend creationism. And yet he is extremely intelligent. He just arrives at some idiotic conclusions.

[1C7Z3H5X]

@JustAnotherKeyboard i love it!a guy with a 5th grade education calling ben stein an idiot

[JustAnotherKeyboard]

@1C7Z3H5X Actually I graduated from the 8th grade. In the 8th grade, they taught us to capitalize the first letter of a sentence. Not to brag.

[1C7Z3H5X]

@JustAnotherKeyboard well...then i stand corrected

[ikvsabre]

@1C7Z3H5X

Ben Stein IS an idiot.

[ChristianHalovids]

@ikvsabre

since when?

[SiriusMined]

@ChristianHalovids

for ages

[ChristianHalovids]

@SiriusMined

whys that, growing up usually the joke is that he is very intelligent. he had a show and a lot of things.

[SiriusMined]

@ChristianHalovids

Could you repeat that in English?

[ChristianHalovids]

@SiriusMined ok

whys that, growing up the joke usually WAS that he is very intelligent. he had a show ABOUT IT and a lot of things SIMILAR.

[SiriusMined]

@ChristianHalovids

Ben's Stein's Money didn't ask particularly difficult questions.

[CursedLuna]

anyone else think he would have made a wicked "Beetlejuice"? I know I do, woot Bobcat!

[Strife18]

"He Just came in here and blew his own head off!" ROFL! This guys great! XD

[ruinerfixxxer]

You know the feeling you get when someone is so pathetic that it's embarrassing even to you. That's the feeling I have right now. This guy isn't even remotely funny

[Warunho]

Oh I just got one of those feelings to.. when I looked at your comment. Your comment isn't even remotely logical! This guy can pull of pranks that almost no one else can thanks to his voice, he is an awesome comedian, but every comedian fucks up sometimes. No one is perfect, that's what you need to realize.

[johnmalory26]

ThAnK YoU VeRy MuCh

[Pypamid]

Where's the HQ button? It's a little blurry :/

[xonythebillygoat]

i love this guy, so funny.

[GBPaddling]

Bono about 1985! no? I think so.

[pat442389]

i hate bobcat. his bernie getz thing sucked but his material was decent its just that i hate how he does those stupid noises and shit. like why doesnt he just talk normal?

[Coxe92]

He sounds as if he's on the verge of tears all the time.

[bwholzschuh]

@Coxe92 he sounds like he's about to cry or kill you.

[errskin]

love the leather jacket

[moeezS]

Harvey Pekar, at the end? Oooh, bet that one got feisty...

[MFruitProductionsLTD]

I love it when he says, "Um... It's been -- It's been a very rough week for me because recently I found out that MY TOASTER WAS POSSESSED BY THE DEVIL!!!"

HAHA Thank you for posting this. Bobcat Goldthwait's videos always make me laugh =)

[fher004]

wow 7/30/87, i was born that day hahaha

[MFruitProductionsLTD]

=) That's cool

[goodmorninguk1]

Man david letterman's looking old now!!

[MainiacBrainiac]

I think the interesting thing with Goldthwait is that people in his audience on Letterman et. al. always seem to laugh at his worst jokes.

[rexsonyful]

He is the best! So natural. This guy is more talented than Jim Carey

[zainsdad]

probebly not really.

[NathanCoalbine]

fuck off lol hahaha

[SlaytheAngels]

Bobcat is the shit!

[300Z31]

I love the fact that Bobcat was on Are You Afraid Of The Dark. lol

[thebrokenleg1]

this guy is great
