    My favorite thing about these videos is the subtle disrespect of the editors adjusting the guests’ punctuation

    • @thisgustin
      @thisgustin Před 5 lety +11

      That's why they have editors.

    • @stefan1024
      @stefan1024 Před 5 lety +38

      gotta love how you left out the punctuation after "puctuation".

      It's not disrespect, though. It's just making it the most understandable it can possibly be by conforming to standard syntax rules. It's actually quite respectful to both the writer, who is trying to deliver the message, and to the readers, who have to do the deciphering.

    Jon Hamm has one of the world's greatest voices.

  • @katherineallen6108
    @katherineallen6108 Před 5 lety +324

    "Harold you sonovabitch" would have worked for just about every one of these.

  • @sarcasmxkate
    @sarcasmxkate Před 5 lety +702

    He has very nice penmanship. And face. It's all nice.

    I was not expecting to be impressed with Hamm on the cartoon captioning game, but I was pleasantly surprised.

    • @zerjiozerjio

      Yes!

      john hamm started his career with the groundlings comedy improve group. he knows funny.

    • @leslielandberg5620

      The guy is very intelligent, don’t know why you would have expected less.

  • @jackstapleton9716
    @jackstapleton9716 Před 5 lety +98

    Jon Hamm is the only person who is funnier when he explains the joke.

  • @deezye636
    @deezye636 Před 5 lety +869

    The actual captions:
    0:15 “Don’t repeat this.”
    0:46 “Matisse now, Pollock later.”
    1:25 “You did say you wanted an earlier flight.”
    1:52 “The Founding Fathers were clear. You must win by two.”
    2:29 “I faked my applause.”
    3:00 “They now think that kryptonite is actually good for you, in small doses.”
    3:49 “I move for less transparency.”
    4:23 “Does he know why we invited him to the barbecue?”

    • @marone0324
      @marone0324 Před 5 lety +5

      For someone reason people are really critical of all of these. I find this is incredible difficult under the spot and most of the comedians have done really clever ones

  • @lauraelianamarcone3436
    @lauraelianamarcone3436 Před 5 lety +68

    he is the most charming person ever i just feel so pleased everytime i see him

    Jon Hamm: Gorgeous and funny. I especially liked the ranch one at the end.

  • @bagleman1
    @bagleman1 Před 5 lety +28

    I've watched a lot of these now, and I think John Hamm was funnier than most of the comedians they've had on. Even his filler commentary was hilarious.
