“Best Script I’ve Ever Read” - Harrison Ford on Brett Goldstein’s New Show, “Shrinking”

[@Skoora]

I don’t know how the audience didn’t immediately cheer out as he hit the floor “He’s here, he’s there, he’s every fucking where! Roy Kent, Roy Kent!”

[@xhighone]

So Brett is the kind of guy we need more of. Simple as that, imo. No fevered ego, no bullsh1t, no nonsense, funny, genuine, and hairy af.

[@JessRansdellSmith]

I'm not normally a hairy guy kinda girl but I would climb Brett like a tree and run my fingers through that chest carpet the whole time. Lol

[@leslieroycroft3569]

@@JessRansdellSmithI second this🙋‍♀️

[@pixel_pillow]

His work on Ted Lasso and Shrinking is amazing. Both shows are incredible dives into mental health and great examples of positive masculinity. Raw vulnerability in both shows. I love it.

[@rebeccaschwartz5488]

Yes! Yes! Yes!

[@leslieroycroft3569]

Emotional maturity, talent, funny and looks the part of Hercules… Yuck! How terrible right? 😉

[@mgregory2430]

“He’s here, he’s there, he’s everywhere…” Happy for him

[@GarryPye]

I love that he didnt want to let 40 people down. Now THATS a decent human being right there.

[@LanceCorporalKitty]

As a British person, I can't tell you how great it is to hear another British person on American TV who DOESN'T speak RP! Just a normal London accent, it's a joy to hear!

[@charliewolf4411]

What is RP?

[@Stuffings00]

Seems he went to one of the country’s most expensive schools though, so swings and roundabouts

[@ianmacfarlane1241]

Yes, there are a disproportional number of posh British actors, but I haven't heard RP on TV for decades.

[@Stuffings00]

@@ianmacfarlane1241 I think the likes of Cumberbatch and Waller Bridge is considered modern RP

[@MxGrr]

@@charliewolf4411 “Received Pronunciation”, or “Standard English”, considered the most polished - or pretentious accent 🤓

[@justbecauseitsbeauty]

What a gem of a guy to not cancel on his comedy gig - gotta love him for that ❤

[@lowellthomson1958]

Really, anyone who doesn't already should really listen to Brett's 'Films to be Buried WIth" podcast. He's the sweetest dude.

[@lowellthomson1958]

He also starred in his own indie movie "Superbob" a few years ago; it's a romantic comedy, quite lowkey, about a superhero who's socially awkward.

[@Tao_Tology]

@@lowellthomson1958 He even, occasionally, resurrects people. What a guy.

[@emilyk5168]

I think this is the right decision. 40 people is a lot of people to pay to see me. I know Harrison Ford is important. But not 40 people important. (Maybe 5-10.)

[@Tao_Tology]

@@emilyk5168 Or, the hidden bestest option, invite Harrison Ford to the gig and just have a 'Conversation with.....' evening.

[@junerobles9192]

That Harrison Ford story is GOLD! Absolutely loved it!!

[@Seilolo]

Right??!!

[@laurenbaxter1026]

Omg I didn't think I could love him anymore than I already do! The story with his mom is hilarious and the Harrison Ford story is so cool! I will be watching Shrinking tonight.

[@Bklyngurl85]

He wrote Shrinking?! Its one of my fave new shows and I love him on Ted Lasso, plus he writes for them too. wow!

[@williamkittler]

Brett is such a great guy and I’m so happy to see all of these good things coming from him!

[@leslieroycroft3569]

I mean so many great attributes in this guy as many of the comments on here have well captured. But I’ll add that he’s such a great story teller as well. Love the story about his Mum and what happened with Harrison Ford.

[@mkb7013]

I had no idea he is one of the creators of Shrinking!!! Wow! I love him even more now ❤❤❤

[@thechumpsbeendumped.7797]

“Is that business over? “Yes” “Let's eat” That's what I like about Harrison, zero BS.

[@milanb.6022]

I never expected one of the funniest bits i heard in a long time to come from him. My hat's off to you sir! Chapeau!

[@MarkCerbo]

Great Story. I adore this guy’s humour already. Straightforward.

[@bak174]

It’s weird seeing Roy Kent smile so much.

[@uschimyers]

He is so great on Ted Lasso! So talented, actor and writer.

[@katica04]

The best character in Ted lasso!

[@tompatchak8706]

The most growth for sure!

[@divagirllove3977]

I just love him!

[@nobleondynamite5157]

​@@tompatchak8706nah, that's jamie

Kathleen, I totally agree! Love them all but I love watching Roy Kent!

[@DSchig]

F’in ROY KENT!!! 😮

[@tob4b1]

He is sooooo down to earth…

[@EdgeyEdgey]

@Brett Goldstein Above you wrote "i replied on your comment for a purpose" and in the above clip you mention the same approach applied to comedy writing. It sounds like you apply your Ted Lasso lesson to life in general. Great to see that thanking a random fan on youtube is part of that philosophy and purpose. All the best.

[@enfys6493]

I always wait until the end of the credits and we are always rewarded and especially this time. I'm afraid I rewatched it at least a dozen times, it did an old woman a lot of good. Oh hell, I'm off to watch it again.

[@Olive_O_Sudden]

My then-8-year-old-nephew and I were the only ones left in the theatre at the end of the credits of 'X-Men: Last Stand,' so we were the only ones to see the final scene.

[@jakesalvador6243]

Shrinking is amazing! Hilarious and real. This is a show that AppleTV needs to back.

[@annec8127]

I love how he moves off the topic of how he looks so quickly. Such a humble and sweet guy.

[@robemega]

Man, is this for real? You are terrific!

[@Trenchant468]

“They called pest control …” He has great delivery-just slides these jokes in. I feel like Stephen didn’t know quite what to do with him.

[@liambohl]

Brett wasn't there for a conversation, he was there to tell stories. Nothing wrong with it, just unusual.

[@karlmortoniv2951]

@@liambohl Colbert knew what to do with him - stay out of the way and let the man work, unlike some late night hosts one could mention,

[@rottensquid]

@@karlmortoniv2951 Right. A Colbert has excellent comedy instincts, but his first job is to get out of the guest's way. Goldstein's delivery, though. You don't even know a joke is coming till it rolls over you.

[@1313tennisman]

Loved him in Ted Lasso

[@tylerheil7798]

You know, typically I pretty much tune out on most of these interviews, but Brett is so likeable that I paid attention to every second

[@LeshAran]

Yoooo, I didn't know he was a producer in Ted Lasso! Literally my favorite character in the show!

[@zacharysmith2551]

I believe he was actually a writer and/or creator originally, but when trying to cast Roy Kent he just felt he was right for it.

[@TibbyProductions]

He's bloody fantastic. Such a talented human

[@user-wv5gv3dw5u]

Bill Lawrence makes incredible TV shows. Cant wait to check this one out

[@michaellaursen5413]

He really does, Scrubs, Lasso, and Spin City are some of my absolute favorite shows.

[@Robert.Sheard]

He's here, he's there, he's every-fucking-where, Roy Kent!

[@manuelacassuto]

BEST STORYTELLING OF ALL TIME

[@liselautenbacher]

VERY great storytelling, no doubt about it. But Greg Davies or Miriam Margolyes on The Graham Norton Show are better - to me at least :) Miriam Margolyes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGXWeIiVmquWapI And Greg Davies: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6a7eKOLh5yZjqM

[@vanessawhitneypro]

Damn, he's a gorgeous man... And, brilliantly funny... Just a heavenly human...

[@Mia7189]

I agree. So handsome, but the more I've seen and read about him, he just comes off as a talented and down to earth guy. I highly recommend his podcast 'Films to be buried with.'

[@silsonsteve]

Last time I saw him (only time) he had a small part in Ricky Gervais's Derek, playing one of the main character's boyfriend. Now he's in Marvel and chummy with Colbert, still funny as hell.

[@TheMonroemomma]

Oh my God, I completely forgot about him in Derek! I knew I had fallen in love with him before Ted Lasso. I remember thinking while watching Derek that he was absolutely gorgeous and I hoped I’d see him elsewhere. Thank you for solving the mystery for me.😊

[@Magdalena8008s]

Derek was amazing. It's one character I wish Ricky Gervais would do more of.

[@TibbyProductions]

He seems so nice and genuine man

[@MAC-op5fc]

I adore this guy.

[@ConchitaCh]

Brett is a FANTASTIC guy. So professional!!

[@NancyPower33]

Brett Goldstein is such a gem! He made a great joke at around 5:50 , but I think that he's used to British audiences who are (having lived there) much more quick to get the joke, so there was this {{THINKING}} silence from the audience afterward, which was also awkwardly funny 🤣

[@BatmanHQYT]

Harrison Ford is SO good on this show!

[@fc4660]

Brett, the King of understatement

[@GregariousAntithesis]

First two Episodes are awesome, going to be a great series.

[@Anonymouse428]

Gotta say, I saw Jason Segel in the preview for Shrinking, and I thought, oh cool, I wanna watch that. Then Harrison Ford came on screen and I thought, oh holy crap! I have to watch this show! How do I watch this show?!

Big fat ditto!

[@baldyjesus07]

[@norman5329]

what a great story...insane that voice mail alone...

[@MxMattieMcD]

Jfc the meeting with Harrison Ford is the Roy Kent-iest way that could have gone.

[@Fakeaorta]

If I remember correctly, he was writing for Ted Lasso first. Before being cast he looked at the character of Roy Kent and said something like "I am Roy Kent, I should play him'.

[@MxMattieMcD]

@fakeaorta yeah that sounds right. And he was not wrong.

[@adelaferreira4575]

I mean this people on Ted Lasso,Jason was brilliant ! But the entire cast was just superb,starting with the amazing Hanna W. Bret, Juno ,great everything period,we need more series like Ted Lasso !

[@Themoomabides]

[@christineboone2850]

[@Mary_Jacobs]

Oh my gosh I love Christa Miller so so so much, I was only half paying attention and just heard the cadence of her voice, ha. Honestly the first show I've been excited to watch in a long time.

Wow. What a nice coversation. I didn't know that Mr Colbert still can do it.

[@jmhaces]

The more the years pass the surer I become that the easiest way to get Harrison Ford to appear in your movie or show these days is to just let him play himself but with a different name.

[@ChipCain]

Actual legend

[@hughegentry8255]

Brett is Britain's ambassador for the foreseeable future!

[@Olive_O_Sudden]

His body hair is amazing. I hope his bare chest helps men of all ages embrace the beauty of their fur.

Tbf it also helps if the be-furred body looks like Brett Goldstein.

“Pest control!!” 😂😂😂😂 PS. I agree.
