. . . And I can't see WHY the Brits seem to think of him as a mediocre comedian. He treats his staff well, raises HBO's lawyers blood pressure every week, and tells a great story while being self-depricating . . . what's not to love?
John Oliver did a better job describing the truth about private health care in our jails and prisons than 60 Minutes. This guy is making you laugh... and he's telling the whole truth. Pay attention America... for the love of freedom... pay attention.
I do not care who writes his material the story I referenced was spot on and "journalists" often get it very wrong. Nost sure what your objection is to the truth but maybe in your perception he is false. I do not hold with that. You can believe what you want. @@SixSonn
@@SixSonn I don't think going after a multimillionaire coal baron and opening yourself up to potential litigation was ever the agenda of HBO. Try again.
AFAF, coincidentally also the acronym for what Trent Alexander Arnold shouts to the Liverpool fans when they chant "Trent" after a goal he scored: "Alexander Fucking Arnold Fam! ✊"
I'm not sure if John is more confused by winning again and again or that the incredibly beautiful woman next to him married him. 😁 He's such a gem, perhaps all the more precious because he doesn't seem to see it in himself.
@@julius5256 Even just in terms of British comedians, David Mitchell married Victoria Coren, who is a successful pro poker player, a popular TV host and very pretty.
All those guys pumping iron at the gym to get a hot bod need to know - and I'm speaking for all women - funny is the new hot. Give me a dad bod and laugh any day.
Ali, Virg and Trent getting mentioned in a Emmy acceptance speech is so brilliant and I'm quite sad John didn't get to say the whole team but it's alright John we love you and YNWA ❤
If I understood it correctly, the order is...Ali, Trent, Virgil, Jesus, and the Oliver Family. I'd take this line-up over FIFA's team-of-the-year every time.
it's a weird category to see john oliver in, but im fine with this as that the other late night show hosts have now a chance to win! not complaining tho, love that trevor noah got to have an emmy for his final year 🥰
lol love that he knows the entire Liverpool squad & can name them in order from the goalkeeper to their starting defenders. Little offended he didn't immediately drop Salah's name tho...
Maybe you should get offended by your own lack of knowledge of the sport Team lineups are always announced from GK, then defensive line (that’s where John Oliver got cut off), then midfielders, and finally forwards Nobody begins with superstars / most valuable players
John just proved, yet again, why is where he is, and is always winning awards for what he does. He simply is brilliant and funny, scripted or not. Who else would have used the mom setup the way he did! And then to shamefacedly thank "jesus and my family," before scuttling off was absolutely hilarious. Keep telling truth to power John!
Taylor Tomlinson and Josh Johnson are my new comedy favorites but I still adore John Oliver, Steven Colbert, and the Wellred comedy tour, and always, Whitney Cummings, who saved my life
His show is really that good. Too bad Trevor Noah left the Daily Show because this is as good as it gets when it comes to news. Why his shows always win because it is well researched, well written, and well planned that they always do something crazy where you just chuckle and think that's awesome. That's why John Oliver always wins these Emmy's.
@@eastvandb The networks just says that so the Hosts can save some face. Trevor was in the same boat as Conan and James Corden. Their ratings were terrible and the networks were losing money putting on their shows. So the studio says 'Please quit to save yourself the embarrassment of us having to fire you."
Let's finish it for John: Ibou Konate, Andy Robertson, Alexis Mac Allister, Curtis Jones, Dominik Szoboszlai, Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, Mohammad Salah, Diogo Jota, Harvey Elliot, Wataru Endo, Joe Gomez, Cody Gakpo, Ryan Gravenberch, Joel Matip, Kostas Tsimikas, Jarrell Quansah, Connor Bradley, Ben Doak, Stefan Bajcetic, Thiago Alcantara, Caoimhin Kelleher!
I love Monday's because I know I can look forward to watching Last Week Tonight. John Oliver is a shining example of the best of humanity presenting the worst of humanity - the irony is amazing and I love each and every minute of it. All of my respect and gratitude to him and his wonderful staff and crew who work very hard to put those stories together. It is 100% well-deserved!
He was going by positions. My guess is that if he got to name all 11 it would've been like this: Alisson (GK) Alexander-Arnolds, VVD (obviously) Konaté, Robertson on defense, Endo, Macallister and Curtis Jones on midfield and finally Luis Díaz , Darwin Nuñez and the man himself, the Egyptian king: Mohammed Salah
*All the other late night show hosts:* Thank god John Oliver is in another category now! Finally we can win something! *The competition in the Scripted Variety Series category:* Damn! Now *we* are fucked!!!
They moved his category to stop him winning… and he still won. 😂

They could just rename this to the Last Week Tonight Annual Recognition Award and not bother with any other nominees.
Frankly, the Emmy they win every year is what really helps keeping the show on TV.
They need to keep racking them or we'll just lose the show forever.

I love the awkwardness of his kiss, wiping it off, then realizing it was awkward to wipe off the kiss on camera. I felt that in my bones. lol
John Oliver is already an absolute legend and then he goes and rattles off the names of the Liverpool squad in his acceptance speech YNWA
Didn't get far along enough to name my boy Luis Díaz :(
@@cockatoo010shit, what should we do now, klopp gone 💔💔💔💔💔
@cockatoo010 he couldn't work out which CB to pair with Virgil in his speech
This was easily the best acceptance speech of the night because he didn't freak out he made it funny. He's my Absolute Favorite Awkward Fuck™
Probably because it wasn’t really a contest for him lmao

No person is history has married up more than John Oliver

She deployed with the 1st Cav!

John Oliver’s wife proves if you are nice and hilarious, you don’t get the 10/10 lady, you get the 12/10
lady.
well, i'm guessing the money didn't hurt either
@@everwhat013I think they were married long before he got rich and famous. She was an American soldier and he was a British comedian.
And she’s also a decorated war hero
My uncle met him b/c my cousin and john's wife were graduating together, said they were a lovely down to earth couple.
@@NPA1001not decorated war hero, he served in military. There's a difference. You will get her in trouble under stolen valour act

Hi Leo! Came here after watching your short!

Poor Saturday Night Live. It doesn’t stand a chance anymore.
All the other Late Night shows were tired of John winning the Emmys every single time. So they had him change categories.
@@ZechsMerquise195and they still lost
lol love that he knows the entire Liverpool squad & can name them in order from the goalkeeper to their starting defenders. Little offended he didn't immediately drop Salah's name tho...
He got cut off....he probably wanted to throw shade at Alisson and Salah being left out of the FIFA XI 2023😂😂😂
Love the bloke!!!
He's a Liverpool fan, not just acting, so he'll know the whole squad
He was starting from the goalkeeper and working his way forward…
Hes a life long Liverpool fan hell know the names of every player all the way down to the under 16s lol
Maybe you should get offended by your own lack of knowledge of the sport
Team lineups are always announced from GK, then defensive line (that’s where John Oliver got cut off), then midfielders, and finally forwards

I assume you have evidence to back that up. Post a link.

I fully believe he could have gone through the entire list as well. 😂

Well deserved John!! YNWA ❤️⚽️
that was absolutely hilarious
Is there an Emmy for best Emmy acceptance speech?

I & a lot of other people would like to thank and list the Liverpool football team - Congratulations John
Also did he find those Pokemon cards……….
I hope he at least addresses the Pokémon cards when he’s back on air!
A random dude gave him a single one card that he has stored. (He said it)
and when he was a guest at Jimmy Kimmel's show, he was gifted with a basket full
According to his interview the next day some rando handed him one card out of his wallet.
Well deserved.
Love John Oliver, YNWA!
I love how obvious it is that his wife is his best friend.
And this is why they won 😂😂😂
Best thank you speech for the night.
Am I the only one that saw the "wrap it up" signal in the back
A bit gutted it ended before he could name the other center back pick between Quansah, Konate, and Joey G! Up the Reds! YNWA
YNWA @ John ❤️
1:22 you can see hus wife go, "Obviously!" I fucking live that.
when he said he was going to start naming the LFC team i thought Salah would be the first one to get mentioned, but then he started with Alisson 😂
He was going by positions.
My guess is that if he got to name all 11 it would've been like this: Alisson (GK) Alexander-Arnolds, VVD (obviously) Konaté, Robertson on defense, Endo, Macallister and Curtis Jones on midfield and finally Luis Díaz , Darwin Nuñez and the man himself, the Egyptian king: Mohammed Salah
"I can get through the whole team then" 😂😂😂
Someone help John Oliver with the Pokémon Cards.

Go on fella ❤️ YNWA

Brilliant 🎉 YNWA
Awesome, John. YNWA
That's enough WIN for Liverpool FC this season, John Oliver beats Daniel Craig as their biggest fanbase ambassador
they moved him so now instead of destroying the chances of the late nights winning he destroys the chance of SNL ever winning again
And now with Jon Stewart temporarily returning to the daily show, the late night hosts still don’t have a chance in 2025!
john is the best 😃😌
Pokemon card panic... it's real. 😂
Ynwa john ❤😂

No idea John Oliver was Liverpool FC fan, I like him even more now 😅
Best.. John Oliver is a series not a talk show!

LIVERPOOL Fc !!! Top of the table
The suspense is killing me... Was he gonna name Konate or Matip?
my boy!
Let's go Liverpool
Could have named Andy Robertson and Konate, there was still time...
