One of the greatest recurring segments in the history of television. Jimmi Simpson is a legend. RUDY!!!!!!
I adore Lyle.
Simpson played him pitch perfect
Such a great character and a great performer. He was so smooth and original with his delivery I always wondered if it was scripted or improv’ed. The fact that Dave seems to be surprised and amused by all Lyle says makes me think it’s not overly scripted. But damn that’s some funny stuff. Lyle never breaks or stumbles. That actor totally owns this character.
The real Lyle said it was scripted, but David would occasionally go off-script and force him to react impromptu.
He's not acting. He's a McPoyle.
Drinks room temperature milk before sweating and offering quality advice.
I have never seen such a spectacular display of confidence from a television performer, maybe, ever.
Two of Lyle’s quips that were underappreciated: “Just scored with the costume lady; Lyle needs to take a little breather.” (Late Show fans know the great Sue Hum)…And “Ya got the body of a Greek god - like Fran Tarkenton in his heyday…” That’s gold.
I'm 54 years old today and this is the best gift that the universe could give me
Happy birthday!
Really? Don Giller had a compilation up for years..
@@doderiolarkisso4038 I know I watched that one at least twice as well. I simply can't get enough of Lyle.
@@goliath8922 Oh it's not actually my birthday. I just announce my age a lot as though it IS my birthday. It's just some lazy trolling on my part.
“Yam bags” 😂😂
That was hilarious. Letterman always had the best writers, the best bits. How Leno beat Letterman in the rating was always beyond me.
The general public likes mediocrity and the same old thing. Anyone with half a brain could utter Leno's punchlines before he did.
@@Genious.You give Leno too much credit.
Who’s Leno?
Yeah I have no idea. Weird.
Leno was the simple persons comedian. Something for background noise. Letterman made you think. It was cool.
This isn't just gold, this is the whole mine. Outside of Robin Williams and Marty Short, I'm not sure any Letterman guest made me laugh this much.
The best intern letterman ever had😊
I don't know. He seems like a bit of a slacker with a bit too much attitude.
Jimmi said he called Dave “Nancy Reagan” as a dare from Hank Azaria. lol
The weirdest of the McPoyles, and that's saying something! 😂
That's where he's from! Thanks.
This is the 50 best minutes of comedy on CZcams: "No problem, Jessica Tandy--teamwork makes the dream work."
After all the insults, Lyle’s last line to Dave “you’re my hero” is very touching and a perfect ending.
These were so good. We've all known a Lyle
Yes... but sometimes I feel like I haven't known enough of them. I don't like working at a place that doesn't have a Lyle.
Yeesss! The complete Lyle Saga in HD format! Thank you Letterman crew for putting this together!
I have very fond memories of my Dad and I enjoying these together. We didn't always get along, which I regret. But watching Lyle and Letterman takes me to a better place with my Dad and I.
So thank you guys for your work. And thank you Jimmi Simpson for being a comedic genius.
I’m digging this whole vibe right here.
I watch this collection every month or so, to make me break down crying at the hilarity! I'm going to have it memorized, soon.
It is pure gold.
This was my all time favourite bit! The contempt Lyle always had for Letterman would make me die laughing!!
Comedy gold! Thanks for making it into one giant post.
Love me some Lyle the Intern. Jimmi Simpson is the best Letterman foil.
My wife began exclaiming 'that's the guy from Westworld! How can he do THAT and also be this guy?'
It's called 'Range'.
Paul?!
One of the best bits of the show. Right up there with any Big Red segment
Jimmi is such a pro. Completely unflappable.
I always enjoy a good Fran Tarkenton reference.
Whenever I see Lyle on another show, I can only think of Lyle the intern.
I would say that too, until I saw him on Psych. Now he is Mary Lightly played by Lyle the Intern. 😂
I’ve watched the Don Giller collection of these so many times, nice to see them in HD💯😭
The interesting thing about the 2/17/09 segment is that in at least two markets (Chattanooga, TN and Watertown, NY), the CBS affiliates decided to go ahead with their digital transitions despite the date being pushed to June. So the last thing broadcast on those stations was Lyle telling Dave 'I know where you live Bee-Yotch!' before the plugs were pulled.
I might have seen only a few of these live so this is amazing having this comprehensive 'Lyle the Intern' compilation. Really demonstrates Jimmi's acting/improv versatility and role consistency, and explains why his later roles are so effective. Dave is such a great straight man anyway but here these two really hit their stride. Comedy gold, thanks!
He's great as Liam McPoyle on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and he's not dead!
The stare 😂
Rudy is damn dynamic in the untethered charisma department!
The legend.
A missed opportunity for a sitcom, btw.
Nah. A full show would have killed the character. Great in small packages... Horrible after 5 minutes
The amazing thing about this character, is that we ALL know (or knew) a Lyle the Intern. Maybe it's not a specific person we can call out, but an amalgamation of characteristics we know, and had to suffer through at a job or in college. It's pure genius.
My favorite elements of this compilation:
#1: Jimmi Simpson consistently nailing his lines.
#2: David Sanborn visible in each exit. RIP
Jimmi Simpson is king. These were my favourite segments!!
I know this dropped yesterday but this is a picture perfect way to start a Friday...
Bring an easy friend for dingus over here. 😂
"It's herbal. It's from Japan. It's Japanese."
I love how Dave seems *genuinely* delighted by Lyle’s weirdness.
Why doesn't Jimmi Simpson have his own show? He's brilliant.
Never saw this guy before! He’s awesome!!!!
Westworld that's where I seen him... Hard to not think of him as Lyle the intern lol
Still one of my favorite bits. 😂
I was 15 when Lyle first burst onto Letterman's stage, and his and Dave's dynamic was a massive influence on my sense of humor. Thanks for uploading this collection!
His outfit was perfect.
One of my favorite Letterman ongoing bits and characters!
All I can think of is his character from always sunny. Lol
Thankyou for putting this together!!!, one of my favourite recurring bits, The other being Alan Kalter's awesome and unnerving segments (R.I.P)
You won't have Aunt Fran to cuddle with you! 😆
This was absolutely the framework for Liam McPoyle
Liam McPoyle was in four Always Sunny episodes before Lyle's first appearance.
Such a great bit , funnier than anything on late night in 10 years.
Wonderful performance. Be sure to check out the interviews on this channel with Jimmi Simpson and with the Stangel brothers, too. In the latter one, the part about Lyle begins about 14 minutes in.
These were awesome segments!
he's in my fav new show Dark Matter 🙂
OMG, yes, that’s where I’ve seen him recently! Great show.
@@tamrasmith1744 and Westworld S1, and some of S2
RIP Lyle
"Who cares what you believe, Grandma? You're from Mars."
I’m in the camera department and I have had interns like this!
yes! collections, thank you. can we get one of Bruce Willis' hijinks?
LYLE!!! Jimmi Simpson would make a great Lucien Carr.
"I just try and stay out of your way lady"
Jimmi kills it in the amazing series
“Perpetual Grace Inc.”
Lyle should have asked for a raise so he could afford more clothes.
Jimmi Simpson is the best!
Well, he made me laugh 😊
He is in a good series on Apple TV , Dark Matter 😊
My favorite McPoyle and fave character from the brilliant show It’s always sunny in Philadelphia. Didn’t know he was on Letterman too. Awesome internship!
Lyle was reminiscent of the classic bits with Chris Elliot. Just full in performance. Comedic perfection!
Lyle is in full confidence at 17mins😅
Man under the stairs maybe best Lyle the Intern ever
Breakout Kings!! ❤
Admit it... we ALL know someone EXACTLY like Lyle The Intern! (I know I do! 😜)
Jimmi Simpson, I never saw this bit, was in Grad School and missed it, wishing I had at the time, awesome stuff.
♥️Gorgeously Lovely!‼️💚♥️
🌍💚♥️💜💙💚💛🧡❤🌎
As far as I'm concerned, this video is the final episode of Westworld.
How did this guy, Jimmi Simpson, land this? He is so great as Lyle, im thinking he had to have been one of the show's writers.
Tres, I did a deep dive a couple of years ago. Some great interview footage with Jimmi Simpson. The Stangel brothers, who had created the role, were walking back from lunch and noticed a large poster outside a theater for the Aaron Sorkin production of a play called "The Farnsworth Invention" starring Hank Azaria as David Sarnoff and Jimmi Simpson as Philo Farnsworth. One of them says to the other, "That's Lyle! That's our guy." He explained that it was Liam McPoyle from "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia". The other Stangel said, "You're right! Wow. We need to call his agent." So, according to the dates the play ran, Lyle's 1st three appearances were during the end of the play's run. After that, Simpson was flown back from L.A. for the remaining dozen appearances. Dave would ask, "Where's Lyle? Let's get that guy Lyle back on the show." He never referred to him by his real name, and Simpson never had a conversation with him off the air. Just incredible chemistry. I think it's some of Letterman's greatest work, honestly LOL...Simpson is obviously a classically trained actor of the first order and part of it is his comfort and skill level in improv.
Wow, nice dive Fred! Thanks for finding that out. @@fredmossberg2069
Sp glad there is a co.plete works. Always loved this bit. Just realized he mentioned McGees. Assuming he was a writer on Letterman and part of the How I Met Your Mother crew?
I remember seeing a 'Lyle the Intern' collection about a year ago.
Is this an update? If so, what was added?
Hvala.
Jeezus that Guy is Funny !
When will we see you guys together again!? Also, love those jeans..
He’s fun but he’s no Johnny Dark.
Interesting comment. I can’t help but notice the similarities between Johnny Dark and Lyle the Intern. Both are heavy smokers. Lyle called Dave “shine box”, while Johnny Dark had his first encounters with show business while shining shoes outside nightclubs. Both show only thinly disguised contempt for Dave. A guy that looks like Lyle appears in a show called Dark Matter. Coincidences? Genetic connection? I’m just sayin’.
Comedy Gold!!!
Legendary
the tiny look of disgust Dave gives @ 5:41 haha
Notice the many “Carson” gestures, modified.
Genius! Love Lyle.
A thing of beauty
Could be the funniest bits.. 😊
Growing up in 80s and watching too much TV, I dont remember a character on any show that made fun of host so well. Such a funny fface 🤣
Thank you! Hee hee...
"Wow"
Oh yes!
A work of genius to rival the likes of the complete works of Shakespeare and just as important.
RIP
Dear dave and all ❤❤❤❤ hi and thanks ❤❤❤❤
Why is the guy that survived getting shot by the Zodiac killer doing on Letterman?
So funny!!
Channelling 1970s Nicholson
Lyle needs a new outfit.
I wonder if Dave was having an affair with this intern too.
Dude. Middle of this I made a connection: he has a lot in common with Jean-Raphael on Parks and Recreation.
The same "living in their own world" attitude, and the hustle to be in "Hollywood" and make money with crazy schemes.
