i read it as "help this channel's *autistic* pursuits" and i really would have if i had money
This show is FUCKING BORING!
Ok now I have to watch this guy. Had enough of the bs shows about angry bitches n crap lately. Thanks for sharing it with us.
He sound like the dude who played Jeffery Dahmer
Detroit become human is good
It's exactly an adult swim show actually. Adult swim is constantly about surprising people and catching them off guard. So making a show like Mr. Rodgers with no hint of irony after 20 years of R rated stuff is the most unexpected move possible. Love Joe btw!
Almost to 1 million!!
to think joe pera & conner o' malley lived together and made content while being the literal polar opposite of personalizes is hilarious. i love that they work together still.
Omg doofus you thought Tou could hide that you like this masterpiece :0 also congrats on 1 million 10000
Of course people cool as you appreciate this show too
The ultimate unexpected move would be to fire Tim Heidecker and do another season of World Peace!!!!!
discovered this gem late at night a few months back while clobbering around streaming services for something to watch, watched nothing else until i finished it. and i want more
you never cease to surprise me berd, never change :)
Super mad it got cancelled, but not entirely surprised, unfortunately.
for brief period it made me feel better about being alive. i need to rewatch and get a second hit
Joe’s influence is a good influence
hi berd
I started watching Joe while I was in chemotherapy. My mom saw how much the show meant to me and wrote Joe an email, a while later I got a really nice, thoughtful letter from Joe. It really meant a lot.
I literally started tearing up reading that holy shiv
That's awesome.
Omg I'm crying
That's wonderful! I hope you are as well as you can be ❤
omg thats so wholesome
It is both the least Adult Swim show and also the most Adult Swim show
fresh breath of air in terms of programming.
I love paradoxes as much as I hate them, context is everything
@@potatoboy6094 It's not really a paradox, just a different answer depending on how you look at it.
it's the most adult swim show BECAUSE it's the least adult swim
It IS pretty neat
Joe himself perfectly describes his own show perfectly in his Season 3 Promo: "You know how most television shows feel like they were made by an energy drink? Well my show feels like it was made by apple cider." It's genuinely one of my favorite show :)
When I fall asleep to him, I’m always in a better mood the next day.
I like how Joe Pera balances the humor with the serious subject matter. It feels very natural and never forgets that it's a comedy. A lot of shows that attempt this sort of thing end up with tonal whiplash or come off as feeling forced.
Even shows I like that do that struggle with it a bit
There is one moment where Joe's nana jokingly says that if he does something before he is allowed to she will kill him with her pots and pans.
Joe replies: "the violence is engrained in us"
There’s humor in his content?
Absolutely agree also hey it’s the cute cerrabella fan art in your pfp
Not a fan of skullgirls but I do like that fan art
I saw Joe Pera for the first time when I was stuck in the hospital after a surgery and was going through a lot of sleepless nights. Something about the show was so calming and comforting, really helped me get through the tough nights.
Did you find him by looking for good ways to fall asleep, out of curiosity? The very first thing I ever saw from him was "Joe Pera helps you fall asleep," or "talks you to sleep." Something like that. :-)
I bet it was just what the doctor ordered in that moment.
@@capnheehee8103 I just always had adult swim on at night because its the only entertaining network on tv at that time of night and they just happened to play a lot of Joe Pera. Definitely was what the doctor ordered :)
I had seen Joe Pera in the past and watched most episodes, something about his soft demeanor made me feel safe. This last year I admitted myself to the psych ward, it was my third stay but it was the first time I had admitted myself before actually attempting something.
I was shook up and scared, tossing and turning, I didn't even want to turn the TV on because most of the time television upsets me... and it did. I turned it on and the tail end of a Rick and Morty episode played, but after it ended Joe Pera came on, and most of my fear simmered down. Adult Swim played 4 episodes back to back at such a scary time in my life and for a brief moment I cried and didn't feel so overwhelmed.
I don't owe my life to Joe Pera or anything, but like a good friend, he was there for me when I needed him most.
Joe Pera helps make me feel good
Great video! I've probably watched "the perfect egg bite" bit a dozen times.
"I love you babe, here we go"
I thought “the perfect egg bite was the name of the show”, but when I got to that part I knew it was going to be good
"I need a win, things aren't going so well for me right now."
next thing after that is half a container of purple jelly
It was a surreal little show. Calm and comforting, like a weighted blanket and a cup of hot chocolate. Joe Pera was a show that really could only exist on Adult Swim as they're always willing to try something different.
Joe Pera legit gives me the same sense of comfort as Winnie the Pooh does, just a dude, absolute guy, I'd love to be his friend
I think what Joe gets right over other “wholesome” comedies is that it shouldnt constantly be cheery happy fun times. Have your character go through trials that test their spirit-and have them come out the other end stronger and indomitable.
I love how wholesome the show feels, you go from the erratic and in your face cartoons to a calm, dry regular guy at 12am.
I was lucky enough to see Joe Pera when he came to my city on standup tour. His on-stage persona is just like his on-screen persona, so I'm happy to say that I think he's just like that.
I shouted from the mezzanine "I love your show, Joe" and he just seemed sad it ended on him. I can't wait to see what else he creates, and I pray he'll get a real budget. I wish there were more shows like Joe Pera Talks with You.
He really only slightly puts on an act for the character. I've been following him for years, and he really is just a wholesome and kind person. Even reading his twitter, he never really seems to break the act.
He needs to work on his openers though. They didn't fit him at all.
I've struggled to describe Joe Pera to curious friends, but you really did a great job navigating what makes the show special. The Bob Ross comparison is especially on point.
It's kinda like if they made a show to their little slice of life bumpers. You know the ones where they show nothing but raw, unedited footage of the countryside and stuff like that.
@@larrylaffer3246 for a sec I thought you were about to say "raw, unedited footage of a bear" lol.
@@justanothergopnik1853 Yeah that would've taken my comment in a completely different direction.
I've showed this to so many friends and family members, and I've always just sent them in blind. They're always confused at first, but the short episodes really do a great job of getting their hooks in. Once the series finished airing it's third season, I sat my mother in-law and grandmother in-law down and we watched the better part of 2 seasons in one sitting. My mother in-law passed away 12 days ago unexpectedly, and I feel really sad that she never got to finish the show.
I always describe it to ppl as Mr. Rodgers for high adults 😆
Joe Pera Talks With You is my favorite show of all time. As an autistic person, I relate A LOT to Joe + Sarah. But also love how most of the other characters are very upfront. They can tell that Joe + Sarah are a little different, but they don’t care. They just love them as is. I also find the most joy in things that are labeled as small and mundane- and this series shows that these things are actually what makes life so special.
Joe Pera feels like an Mr Rogers for adults. His delivery is simple, comforting, and tackles adult dilemmas in such a fresh way. Definitely a comfort show that I’d recommend to anyone.
Joe kinda seems like that awkward friend you had in middle school, and despite them not being very interesting, they're still in your friend group well on into your adult years, working the 9 to 5. They don't do anything outstanding, yet you've kept them around, even when some of your other friends have changed out over the years.
I kinda dig it.
He’s like the best aspects of a kid that grew up with his grandparents
Honestly, I hope the show comes back. It was one of those good feel shows, a show that made me cry because it made me feel comforted.
Joe Pera feels like a show that'd play in the background of another show. One example that came to mind was the Pretty Patrick show from Bee and Puppycat
Absolutely, Pretty Patrick reminded me a lot of Joe.
Is your attention span so low that you have to watch 2 shows at a time?
@@robokid20001 genuine question, doesn't that mean I have a high attention span if I could focus on a fictional show happening in the background when something else is happening in the foreground, since I can focus on both?
I’m so happy more people are talking about Joe Pera talks with you, it’s one of the most charming and heartwarming shows out there
It’s mega wholesome. One of my favorite moments in the show is when Sarah briefly takes over as the host when Joe was too overcome with grief due to the passing of his grandmother. It was such a creative joke that came bundled in layers of vulnerability, tenderness, and love and all at once it worked on all those different levels. Great stuff
I have so much respect for Adult Swim. Whether a show lasts for one season or twenty, each show is unique in it’s premise and execution. I’ve never been a fan of their live action shows, but at least AS takes risks.
It doesn’t help that in a world of remakes and reboots, AS feels like the only source of genuine creativity and heart.
I recently went through a lot of the videos on their "infomercials" playlist and it definitely sets a mood for a day.
If you want more Joe Pera, I highly suggest his appearances on the podcast “This Story Must Be Told”. They read surreal short stories and the ones Joe have made me cry
Honestly? As someone with various disorders in the brain and neurological stuff I can see a lot of myself in Joe.
So seeing him just go around and vibing and people offering help and listening to him just filled me with love. It's my own little escapism into a world I wish had more patience for people like me.
As a person with autism I bet joe has asd as well
Same here. The way he just talks about what he’s excited about reminds me of…. Me. The adherence to a set schedule and keeping life simple mirrors the symptoms I have or have heard others on ten spectrum having. I just wish I could be as calm as him or make something as groundbreaking.
AUTISTISCISM….
@@loumona76 nah. Kids have to learn the "nobody cares" deal same as autists do. It's a social cue/normality thing & we all have to learn it at one time or another. It's a little harder for y'all & I accept that. I enjoy hearing anyone ramble about something they're passionate about, but not everyone does. Gotta read the room
@@bbbbbbb51 the world IS ableist tho, because many will assume that those with autism can't perform jobs well or will assume that they are mean and unable to form connections, things that have nothing to do with what autism ACTUALLY is: a harder time reading the room. And I don't even want to get into other mental disorders
So many things about Joe remind me of the people I've known in the rural communities I grew up in and lived in. So sincere in ways one wouldn't expect
Joe's new podcast is amazing - he literally gets Arthur Morgan's VA while talking about how he spent quarantine aging rd2r
It's a show I genuinely never knew I wanted or needed until I finally saw it. Growing up in the mid west up near states like Ohio and Michigan, I get a really familiar and comforting nostalgia even though I'd never seen it.
Rest in Peace to Lance Reddick man. We lost a true Paragon of the "Weird/Surrealist" Wave of comedy
Honestly, between this and Off the Air, I have a lot of respect for [AS]'s artistic integrity. They really aren't afraid of taking risks, and because of that they end up with a lot of really great shows. A lot of not-so-great shows too, but I think that's really how it has to go if you want to do creative original things.
Holy shit “We’re suing each other to learn about the legal system” is hilarious. Holy fuck that’s genuine laughter
Joe Pera Talks With You is one of my favorite shows ever created. The fact that it AND the Midnight Gospel got canceled in the same year broke my heart
I love Joe Pera's vibe. I often times have a really hard time going to sleep. So listening to him talking about little stuff quietly like a friend helps me.
I remember when my anxiety got bad enough to the point that I couldn’t sleep unless I was talked to I scoured on CZcams for people talking, and found one of the episodes. At first I thought it was going to be loud and crass because it was adult swim who posted it but gave it a shot anyways. I remember tearing up at how unexpectedly peaceful it was to see Joe just, well yknow, talk about stuff.
This video helped me remember how comforting, and as he said, sincere Joe Perra’s show felt, and how great it truly is. Amazing video
ahhh thank you so much for highlighting joe pera talks with you, and for pointing out that it's not just wholesomeness! it's sincerity and appreciation that joe pera has for the things in his life, and his approach to each of these varies a great deal, and yet his flat delivery and demeanor tamp it all down in such a way that i find so comedic.
I remember waking up at 3 am one night and hearing the joe Pera Christmas tree short on AS. Although I couldn't even remember the show's title, his voice stuck with me. When I heard it again years later I was an instant Joe Pera superfan
I found Joe Pera talks you to sleep when I was way too high by myself and kinda freaking out about it and I was absolutely hypnotized by how soothing Joe was and everything about it was so comforting
That intro scenario is too familiar, waking up to random episodes of Sealab was wild. Half awake watching these mutants scream "Bizzaro Bizzaro Bizarro" was something else.
0:32 Love seeing Xavier Renegade Angel get more recognition!
I been watching the show since episode 1 and i'm glad folks are finally giving the show a chance. This show is like a warm bowl of your favorite homemade soup on a cold winter night.
We all strive to be this man. My friend recommended this show months ago, and I really needed it. Thank you.
i have been looking for a show of this sort for *years* now and, honestly adult swim is the only network i imagine could make something like this because theyre the only ones to deviate from formulas to this extent. many thanks for this vid
I completely forgot about Joe Pera' show.. I vividly remember seeing his rock episode, while at first I felt disinterested by the topic, I kept watching out of curiosity. I became invested after a few minutes because it didn't feel like he was talking to an audience, but to an acquaintance or friend who's with him on his day to day. It felt personal, something not many shows have or really do anymore.
beautifully put. love your visuals too, totally unique feel that sells joe well!
That tender moment between Joe and his mom made me cry. The beauty of that simple moment of care is wonderful and so nice to watch.
joe pera genuinely saved my life. i found this show in 2020 and it saved my life and helped me keep going. so thank you joe
Nunca he visto este show, pero realmente tengo ganas de verlo. Esta semana será el día c:
He really nailed a balancing act that is nearly impossible to attain. I wish this show could have gone on longer.
I'm glad I discovered this show in the most ideal way to discover an adult swim show, by waking up to it just playing on the TV in the late hours of the night.
For me, the heaviest thing Joe ever said was in "Joe Pera talks you to sleep."
"If we're so tiny and insignificant, if you're able to find that one person in the universe who cares about you... Why would you want to disappoint them?"
That was probably the single most insightful and good-hearted thing I've ever heard on late night TV, animated or no.
Looking at your profile picture after reading your comment gave me severe whiplash
@@Cogu985 Yeah, I get that a lot.
Lmao
It's always funny when someone with a lewd pfp says something profound or philosophical
It's that type of year, ain't it
@@minecraftsteve2504 Lewd people can have thoughts too!
Fr, I try to quote yet butcher it all the time 😅 but I think about that quote a lot
Urick summarized it best in the least words required just by going “hmm.”
The show really is just; “I find this interesting.” “hmm.”
Its an enjoyable show. It’s adorable in its mundanity.
Joe pera talks to you and his podcast are so amazing...made me cry multiple times
I didn't expect to relate to Joe over the coarse of this video. Parts like 5:12 & 5:25 especially are situations I've faced in in the past.
I needed this recommendation. Thank you Uricksaladbar
I listened to 'Relaxing Old Footage with Joe Pera' last night for the 1st time. He somehow escaped me until I very recently found this review of yours. Thanks a lot for introducing his content to me. You're the best. I swear, Adult Swim is full of geniuses. Mr. Pera reminds me of my grandpa/Papy, dad & uncles with how he talks. I can almost hear their long-lost conversations about grown-up stuff when I watch him.
you perfectly encapsulate all of the things i love about this show. great video as usual Urick
While I've never seen this show... it's giving me feelings of calm similar to Mr. Rogers. It's not quite the same thing, this one is a bit more of a self-reflective approach. How interesting.
Your style of video never ceases to amaze! Its amazing how you can create these full length videos in the span that you do, it took me a week of non stop work to make a 3 minute video even remotely close to rivaling something like yours... Not that I'd ever wanna rival you :p
will definitely watch this show, also love that the editing still has little stuffs from disco elysium, another banger as always mr. bar.
For those interested in Joe Pera, I also recommend Action Button Reviews by Tom Rogers, as well as his videos for Kotaku. The man will wax poetic about becoming a vegetarian as a child, working his first job and passing out from heat stroke and how all that relates to the magic and simplicity of Earthbound. It's incredible stuff.
love Tim Rogers but he’s definitely a bit more intense than Pera haha, especially the essays that he would read on his old youtube
@@sephirothtits no one forgets where they were in life when they read "A Friendly Reminder To Everyone" or reach the end of A Long Translation
I feel like when it comes to shows like this I need a Jumpstart. I thought this show was extremely boring before but with your perspective I'm excited to check it out now. Love watching videos like this one. 😎
Oh my god I'm so happy someone's talking about this show, it's one of my favorites that ever aired on AS.
As someone who grew up in the Midwest and lives in the UP, this show makes me feel at home completely.
im so glad that you made a video about this cuz now i have something to look forward to (and the person behind it) checking out!
It’s worth mentioning that the show feels so authentic because in part, the topics featured in the episode often are thing the real Joe Pera is into. And apparently he’s a lovely person if you meet him. Too bad the show didn’t get a 4th season, Joe Pera said he would have liked to give it a more proper conclusion
Also, this is a wonderful composed description of why this show is so great.
Thanks for reminding me of Joe. Discovered him a few years back and I miss him. Now I wanna go back and watch his stuff again.
love this show, glad to see someone else talk about it. also appreciate the hotline miami music🙏
just wanted to let you know this was a really enjoyable vid to watch
thanks for making it
This looks fantastic! I spent my early-mid 20's with the older shows on Adult Swim like Aqua Teen's first 6 or so seasons among some other shows airing in that time frame, and it's really great to see some young talent carry that torch of similar spirit to entertain the younger generation of 20-somethings today!
Just turned 20, and I'm hoping to look more into this show!
@@Es-Flowers That's what's up! If you do get around to watching it hopefully it'll make for an enjoyable experience!
Literally one of the greatest shows of all time. Season 2 in particular is a 10/10
WOW! I never knew this show even existed the only thing I remember was some weird animated thing where he tries to talk to you to sleep. It was weird. But your video showing it's a live action show with the kind of mild humour I adore. I am so ready to give it a watch thank you.
Watched it because of you! Thank you so much, it's a beautiful show. I wish there were more of it, it feels like it could go on forever.
This show, and the Joe Pera podcasts always calm me down when I’m having panic attacks, or when I’m just going through a bad time. Not much else does that for me. When it was announced there would be no season four, I was crushed. But his new podcast is a good replacement. I can’t wait for Joes new special :)
I think what made this show standout of the others it’s the fact it is innovative in a sense that it’s not what the common general public is used to see (some super hero bs or something that’s has to be thought provoking or a action to be thrilling). It just a simple concept putted in a heartwarming character
And, to me, it’s more than enough and a breath of fresh air
Eyy!! Im surprised to see you doing a video on this little gem. I loved it, it was really comforting
I had never heard of this show till now but just by the few clips you've showed I think I'd really enjoy it. Thank you for doing video on it. 😄
Joe pera is one of the greatest shows I’ve ever watched. I have incredibly niche reasons for loving it. My family is from northern Michigan and the show takes place there too. Not the same region but the same vibe. And it really helped me through a pretty difficult part of my life mentally and it still does. It’s just incredibly charming and is set in the same world we are now and sorta is a head on take of nihilist thoughts and the strange modern world we’re in. His relationship with Sarah he has in the show is so truly charming and the shows end made me tear up a bit. It’s just such a sweet show that feels so real and is something you can relate both in easy or difficult times someone might be going through. Like he said it’s honestly not a very deep show at all. I’ve taken deeper meanings on it personally that makes me happy, but it’s just wonderful, and it is legit hilarious at times.
A contender for my favorite show of all time. Wish we could get a physical release.
I love the editing here, you do great fusing the script with visual humor!!
so glad someone decided to make a video on joe pera talks to you, this and off the air used to be favorites of mine when I was younger
His character feels almost idealistically human, plain, simple and mundane but ever so content to just be, I like it.
I started watching this show earlier this week out of morbid curiosity, this video absolutely could not have come at a better time for me
This video was so well made and narrated, what got me to subscribe though was the shoutout to your patrons. Insanely wholesome.
So much effort in this video, gotta appreciate this editing, and the writing behind it. Its been awhile since a video has made me really appreciate the quality of the work. Nice man 🤝
It's my favorite show for a reason. It's incredible on all bases.
Im really happy alot of people have been talking about joe pera lately. This guy rocks.
Nice video, honestly we all enjoy your voice, is very soothing
I discovered Joe with a random CZcams video that had him reading a story for an hour. His soft talking voice and dry approach is exactly what I was looking for
Adult swim has always been that one late night comedy Channel that you'd see whatever new shit was pushing boundaries. Joe Pera has been one of my favorite modern additions to their lineup.
Adult Swim and Newgrounds formed the bridge between TV and the internet for me as a kid. I used to only watch cartoon network, but then after being exposed to Adult Swim, I wanted to watch more stuff like it, leading me to Newgrounds.
im honestly in disbelief over the lack of people talking about joe pera, and im very glad you decided to share this vid!
me and my mom bond over pera in our free time, its our favorite show! our favorite episode is "Joe Pera Takes You On A Fall Drive" :o)
Really glad I stumbled upon your video, I’m loving this show!
I absolutely adore Joe Pera, more people should know about this wonderful work of modern art
I remember staying up one night and seeing this. I was confused by it, naturally, but there was nothing else on so I kept watching. Really good show honestly.
This reminds me of that one thing that went viral once, where some place opened a library, where instead of reading books, you sit next to people who tell you their life story.
I've been watching Joe Pera for a few years and he is honestly one of my favorite people on this planet. His podcast and show are something that I will frequently turn to when I'm feeling stressed and it always does the trick. He's so genuine with everything he says and it's something that I strive to be myself. God bless this man.
This really reminds me of slice of life in anime. No big over plot or danger, just some people chilling out.
Literally said this right before you said it lol
i really like your editing style, thank you for the nice videos
Thanks so much for showing me this man, I don't know if I've ever seen something so subtle, so comfy, it just makes me happy ❤
This show resonates so much with me. Thank you for showing appreciation and bringing more attention to it.
Joe Pera's show is just straight up pleasant. Strange nowadays.
He's giving Mr Fred Rogers.
Edit: RIP Lance Reddick.
this video is just calming just like the show its just happy
i am glad that you we’re able to talk about this show have a good day
