      No, it's a sense of...a rhythm that they start together.
      It's something American to clap at everything and then move on to the next bit.
      Or even clap/giggle at silences.
      In video's, where a daughter goes; 'Stephdad...will you adopt me?!' and the stephdad tears up....you will hear applause in the background from the family.
      It's a culture-thing.
      That being said, I'm Dutch and I despise it.

      MrXenonProductions no it isn't. I'm a fan of James Acaster but the constant laughter after every single thing he says, whether it's funny or not, is irritating. Either the show felt the need to put canned laughter into the video at every pause because the American audience weren't actually laughing at his misunderstood British humour, or the audience were awkwardly laughing because they were being told to by a prompter in front of the crowd.

      Trunk McEight a fallacious and unnecessary observation. He doesn’t have a political set, so their politics has no bearing on their reaction. Also would identify as liberal if I had to and am ultimately distracted by the laughter despite finding acaster very funny. What you call an observation is actually, and ironically a politically invoked delusion so shut up and don’t try to politicise something which isn’t political: ergo, stop being a troll

  • @atinyangrycactus
    @atinyangrycactus Před 3 lety +82

    For those wondering about the audience, when you sit for a recording of a talk show, they usually tell the audience to be overly enthusiastic and laugh much more loudly and often than normal. Sometimes they'll even have a guy in between takes trying to hype up the audience and they'll even sometimes stop and redo takes if they feel the audience wasn't loud enough the first time. Most American audiences dont clap at every damn pause in the show like they annoyingly did here. I'd attribute it to poor direction from the production crew.

    • @samwhite4284
      @samwhite4284 Před 2 lety +4

      Interesting… I can imagine this is incredibly annoying for comics who get to understand the natural flow and dynamics of their audiences - it dictates the flow of delivery and they use the natural pauses for extra impact when a line is delivered. You can see it in this video, where he tries to wait for a pause to say “… there it is” but can’t because the audience is still clapping. I have seen it with other comics on this particular late show.

      Read some of the comments and am genuinely confused by everyone mad at the audience. You don't think comedians want this type of reaction? Every comedian would kill for this type of audience, ESPECIALLY when it's being televised. The audience is loving it! And rightfully so! James is killing it! And for people confused about the pauses, when an audience has this type of reaction where they just keep laughing or clapping or whatever, the best comedians do what James did. They stay in whatever bit they're doing and keep it going. For James it just so happened to be the funny pose he was doing. If it was a bit where he was telling certain part of a story, then he would have stayed in that part of the story and found a way to compound it, whatever "IT" was, before moving on.

      @Rosie Widdicombe you see, James Acaster is what people would call a "comedian", say jokes to make people laugh, smile or to tell a joke in a funny way.
      Hope that helps.

      This is just a guess, but I suspect it got a big laugh because there was an item before him where people were throwing up on stage so it was a genuinely good and off the cuff joke. Not just a classic example of americans laughing at anything.

    It's as if the buttons for those applause/laughter signs were continuously being walked over by a cat.
    I love James' stand-up normally but he sometimes barely did anything here and there was laughter and applause.
    He was on Conan once too and the audience reaction was weak but at least realistic and understandable. He is very much a comedian for a British or Aussie audience and I don't think his material and even mannerisms quite work Stateside.
