Chris O'Dowd Turned a Booze Cruise Win into Five Months in Paris

[@michelesmith7396]

Irish charm...just beautiful. Him drunk on the last leg was one of the funniest things I've ever seen

[@roscomccreadie907]

Spot on, the big man is a belter

[@crystaljefferphetamine]

God he was incredible on that. Absolute legend.

[@Gillotronique]

Thanks, i'll watch it right away!

[@13thDeviouz]

Michele Smith The fucking Banksy ting on the wall? 😂

[@eimearnic1021]

Nickell Johnson was the Union Jack necessary?

[@kyleEcoyote79]

I think I could listen to Chris talk forever. Not just because of the accent but he’s great at telling stories.

[@shinrin1081]

Kyle Sykes think that's just an Irish thing...... We can talk for HOURS XD

[@kyleEcoyote79]

S W Well I could listen to you talk forever also. 😘

[@youtube31thirtyone58]

Kyle Sykes he is everything 🙌🏽

[@shirleyinglis4312]

He narrates a cartoon called puffin rock

[@hestiluhsuprobowati8143]

My daughter just cant get enough of him telling Arnie The Donut on storyline..and me too.."sure thing mister Bing!"

[@mariagarcia1063]

did you see that ludicrous display last night?

[@ascendancy425]

What was Wenger thinking sending Walcott on that early?

[@GreasyBelcher]

The thing about Arsenal is, they always try and walk it in.

[@PaulPlaysMinecraft]

True. See you later

[@pointlessopinion611]

Whats going to happen when they find out i dont know what a pony is

[@dlo111]

you guys are killin me! lol! thanks for that laugh, I love that show.

[@BlankCanvas88]

He actually talks more expressively than his character Roy! I love that he has so much personality. :) P.S. Jimmy actually did a good job here letting Chris talk and not interrupting him every 5 seconds to laugh & clap!

[@clothilde1623]

BlankCanvas88 I thought the very same thing - I was astonished by how long he managed to shut up!

[@miakoda248]

He seemed to be really concentrating - trying to understand Chris' accent, me thinks

[@clothilde1623]

Miakoda // Lol I bet you’re right!

[@flxfaber]

He sounded tired

[@mjw12345]

Conan is an absolute disaster for interruptions! No equal!

[@tonchie23]

Chris O'Dowd in The IT Crowd is one of the best characters in TV history EVER!!!

[@jessepatterson8897]

probably my fav show, but renom (son) did it the most for me FATTHERRRRRR

[@catkin3]

Totally He was not appreciated as much as he should have been - quite a brilliant comedian and I think made the show.

[@mariaroussakis5281]

A fire?? At a sea parks??

[@erinmaree1987]

IT'S WRECKIN MY HEAD

[@telectronix1368]

You can never ask me about it again.

[@NeatoRad]

Damn that mash looks tasty!

[@yaswanth.s3613]

in a sea lion show?

[@veronicadredd22]

Such an Irish thing randomly bumping in to someone you know abroad

[@saharaxxxx]

Seriously! You cant go anywhere!

[@clothilde1623]

It happens to Scottish people too. My dad was queueing to get some street food in Osaka, Japan and spotted one of his neighbours, who also happens to be the son of my dad’s friend, in a queue for a nearby stall. He walked up to him, tapped him on the shoulder and said, “Your dad told me to keep an eye on you.” Apparently the poor guy’s face turned white. 😂 Maybe it’s a Celtic thing. 🤔

[@ca1ib0s]

My Aunt and Uncle emigrated from Ireland to Perth in Australia in the late 70's. About 10 years ago they go to their local pub and are served by a new barmaid. When they hear her accent they tell her they're Irish too and ask her where in Ireland she's from. She tell's them and my aunt says, "Oh wow. My Sister and her husband and my nephews are from x town too. They own a shop near the Seafront. The Barmaid replies, "Your not 'Calibos' Aunt are you!!!! A few years later the Perth Aunt and Uncle go out to have dinner with my uncles Boss and family. The Bosses daughter brings her new Boyfriend to the dinner. Turns out he's Irish. They ask him where in Ireland he's from and he tells them. "Oh Wow. My Sister and her husband and my nephew's are from x town too.They own a shop near the seafront. The Bosses Daughters Boyfriend replies, "Calibos' Newsagents? LOL. They've leased that building from my family for decades. My Mother is their landlady!" Perth Aunt and Uncle retire back to Ireland in 2012. Their son (my cousin) came over to ireland this June to visit them with his wife and kids for a 5 week holiday. One of the days on a whim, they all headed up deep into the beautiful Wicklow mountains for a hike. Cousins Wife walks into a workmate from back in Perth down some remote hiking trail. Friend vaguely aware that cousins wife was visiting her Irish inlaws sometime this Summer. Cousins Wife vaguely aware that workmate was doing a walking tour of Europe sometime this Summer. Meeting in the arsehole of nowhere up some mountains in Ireland definitely not planned. LOL 15,000 kilometres away!!

[@jasonmoore2712]

My ma and da were staying in a resort in lanzarote, they kept slagging the couple in the apartment underneath them as they were constantly sitting on the balcony playing the same few songs over and over again, the couple turned out to be my da's brother and his wife who he hasn't seen in roughly 8 years! So they reminisced with each other for the rest of their holidays and now it's been 2 years since they last seen each other lol.

[@marnimatikka7833]

It happens to everyone. Everywhere.

[@lcg101]

I love the pacing of this whole interview. So glad it was posted in entirety! Chris you're a great actor!

[@viatrix03]

Every time he says "we," I imagine it's him and Moss 😄

[@johnwedgbury6817]

yeah but remember, roy is the gander.

[@BriRog68]

Chris Dowd is amazing! He's always so fun to watch...loved the episode on Graham Norton when he accidently drank the fly..hilarious!!

[@NateDoggsayzRegulate]

"It was Heaven ... in France ... well, they've been telling us for a while" - amazing

[@terencehikawai2938]

Pure Irish Chancer!!! Feckin give anything a go like!

[@annalise7736]

I can confirm he did very well in his interview I was impressed!

[@rattatatter]

I love that the comments here are just 50% quotes from the IT crowd...

[@sarah854r4h]

That's because he's NOT a window cleaner!

[@hardleecure]

Nice screensaver!

[@stevenkelby2169]

Hot ear.

[@NorthWriter]

There's a GREAT interview with Chris on Jarlath O'Reagan's "An Irishman Abroad" podcast. It's about an hour long, and Chris talks about his early life, school (including this Paris story), his other work, and other stuff. So funny, and so delightful. It's well worth looking for.

[@allisonsweigart7769]

This entire interview is great.

[@TK-ij2xi]

Watch when he's on Graham Norton with Kristin Wiig...talk show gold.

[@lakrids-pibe]

"That's right, I'm a good girl"

[@TheMarvelguy1]

Is it me or is he talking slower than usual so the American audience can understand??

[@aoifed8913]

Yep

[@aoifed8913]

@lxulcu He's not drunk/tipsy, it's just a Roscommon accent:) Edit** Watch him on The Last Leg, he was having birthday celebrations & kinda forgot to stop. Its hilarious

[@bobdoubter2977]

It was very funny. thanks. @@aoifed8913

[@SweetSirenia]

I think it's so Jimmy Fallon can understand. Even worse than the average American.

[@lynnstrange3819]

I think it’s called being well oiled. 😉

[@ayassafespace]

I love Chris so fucking muchh😂 it's always a fun time watching him

[@MrNncon]

Aya it crowed!!

[@Atlantya]

This is amazing. I think this is the first interview that I’ve heard where Jimmy Fallon actually let his guest talk. It was so enjoyable.

[@rachelkelly9542]

he's hilarious,, im from ireland and never heard a person so irish lol

[@MM-dq2pi]

He sounds way more Irish than the last time I heard him, also a higher voice lol.

[@jjay6432]

Adelaide McMillan 😂😂plenty laughs but not a word understood.

[@rachelkelly9542]

yeah seen the graham norton video, really hard to understand lol

[@CianMcsweeney]

Those rowers are from skibereen in Cork, even irish people don't understand the accent from there lol

[@ca1ib0s]

The 'Actor' was Michael Fassbender who is German Irish and is from Kerry. Usually the Kerry accent is even more unintelligible than the Skibbereen Cork accent of the rowers but Fassbenders Killarney Kerry accent has softened after his years of Globetrotting and international fame. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJ7Vip-kep56d6s

[@sya8109]

That’s a nice tnettenba.

[@FacheChanteDeux]

This is why I love the Irish. They tell such great tales in such a captivating way.

[@emma7826]

This is the best interview I have seen in a looong time😂😂😂🇮🇪🇮🇪

[@Mia7189]

Chris O'Dowd is cute and adorable.

[@gilbertloiselle7978]

Oh, could listen to Chris' brogue forever!! Just lovely!

[@Gonkawonga]

The Irish are great fibers...Chris is on the top of the game.

[@dru2099]

This guy should narrate things

[@deathtoallpoets]

He actually narrates a kids show on Netflix called “Puffin Rock”. He’s brilliant!

[@Len0Grady]

Check him out in "Moone Boy"- he's the narrator and the hero's imaginary friend. It was on Hulu, last time I checked.

[@boylepeter]

Chris is so delightful! Down to earth, charming, funny... SO Irish!

[@NellieKAdaba]

Yes!

[@whitneyg3593]

I love this guy. “I have the skeletal structure of a broken giraffe “

[@donnalawless7873]

He says of a very old giraffe, not a broken giraffe.

[@whitneyg3593]

Donna Lawless whatever

[@4EverATVAddict]

Fing about the French team is, they always try an' walk it in.

[@garyhutton2654]

U referencing that cheat Henry

[@theheartofablackbird2109]

A rare interview where Jimmy lets the guest talk

[@wendyransome6618]

He’s the ideal chat show guest. Just set him up and off he goes. So witty and great to listen to.

[@NellieKAdaba]

I agree, lol.

[@treetrain]

just finished season 2 of get shorty, and then watched this. I LOVE THIS GUY EVEN MORE NOW !!!! Also, that's the best description of Ray Romano's voice I have ever heard!! Bloody Brilliant !!

[@g9nnar]

What a great way to find work abroad!

[@seraphale]

It's so nice to see a show where they just let the guest talk! Fantastic.❤

[@shanhussain6114]

Chris O'Dowd is awesome

[@MJDHX]

BRING BACK MOON BOY!!!

[@daybellinej813]

WE LOVE CHRIS SO DAMN MUCH!!!!!

[@croulantroulant3082]

as a French guy that july 98 night in Paris will forever have a special place in my heart. Actually I'm getting teary-eyed just thinking of it......Once in a lifetime thing, but I guess most people here won't understand......

[@WithJazzyx]

I want that motivation to live my life. Life is too short 😍

[@MegKBaker]

From seeing him on the last leg everytime I see him on a talk show I always think he's hammered but Chris is cool & I love him

[@sarah854r4h]

Save the Tiger Swan !

[@NewMessage]

I've heard the French are very open to strangers sleeping on their dingies.

[@tiredfoot2430]

Chris is one of the cutest guys ever!

[@jennyrintakoski4914]

Aw Chris. I love him so much.

[@justabigchicken1466]

It's the most brutal war on the pitch, is Gaelic Football. Endlessly alarming played by the most hard bodied men I have ever seen.

[@annaogrady1660]

Especially the children who are still learning how to get the ball properly. Full on rugby tackling each other 😂😂

[@zsong9600]

"Hello IT, Have you tried turning it on and off?"....

[@markcallan910]

He makes me proud to be irish

[@jenniferholden9397]

A true Irishman with the "gift of the gab", he must have kissed the Blarney Stone. I love him. Never change Chris, stay as sweet as you are.

[@nooranen3178]

I luuuuv Chris O'Dowd!

[@ChelseaRollo]

I love them. i only seen him in The IT Crowd but the second i saw him i develop a crush on him and his character.

[@joshuageraldbutler8037]

This story is hilarious.

[@createful_heart]

Chris is so funny! I could listen to him talk for hours.

[@jardom6044]

It's pretty strange for me that this guy doesn't get more recognition than some phony film starts from hollywood. He is hilarious.

[@hawsrulebegin7768]

Wish he had his own chat show

[@beanfarkle1517]

this man is the meaning of lovely

[@sanarasool1349]

him drunk on last leg was too good

[@sentinal2337]

I lived in Paris for 4 years and loved every day..

[@allme2547]

You bought me a croissant once

[@happytraveller2122]

My dream

[@albertosantiago7691]

This is a great and very talented actor. As as a guy so charming and funny.

[@nirish25]

Great IRISH actor 🇮🇪

[@pulkitwadhwa2207]

What a great story!!

[@abbieguerin2733]

makes me feel at home listenin to an Irish person listin all the Irish things

[@studiocelestedesign]

Speaking of drinks he’s definitely a few drinks in on this interview. 😄🍺🍺🍺🍺

[@feebeedoc78]

This is a talk show voice Chris, not your usual speaking voice.

[@MM-dq2pi]

He does sound weird in this interview.

[@samanthat575]

Mike Campbell I think he’s just annunciating as much as possible haha

[@ezzy3589]

So Americans can understand him maybe

[@stevel6943]

The first time I have watched Fallon not interrupt or try to one up his guest or repeat every other word his guests say

[@THEGIZS]

Fucking love this guy hes never change just a true irish man having the craic great guy

[@thenextshenanigantownandth4393]

what's a none true Irishman?

[@maryjensen5310]

That is a great story.

[@torsteinbakketunkyte7419]

I'm not a window cleaner!

[@joejoseph3078]

He has the strangest speech pattern. I wondered if he was hearing impaired at first because of his enunciation and rather loud volume, but it is just unique I guess. Its kinda cool.

[@Samsamsamolina]

Chris is the best

[@cuzned1375]

I fall for Chris O'Dowd every time i see him.

[@1234T-x7i]

Good see the lad is still a Paddy .. one of us ..

[@christophercrowder872]

Thank the Lords of The Internet for this interview.

[@elizaheathen]

I'm tryna find me a Chris O'Dowd

[@Len0Grady]

Better head to Lisdoonvarna Matchmaking Festival. It's on in September, Aei Sedi, and about 60,000 people show up every year for the music, craic and romance.

[@arigato22]

I was in Paris in 98 during the world cup too. Crazy times! :) Paris was so different then; dirtier, more dangerous, less english speaking...!

[@NewMessage]

I just re-watched FAQ About Time Travel, like yesterday.... Or wil it be tomorrow?

[@42cosmonauts]

One of my favourite movies. So sad they didn't follow up with it. Such a great indie sci-fi flick!

[@javiruiz4405]

Omg his voice!!!! Lol 😆

[@singenstattatmen5096]

Dear me... I could only see part of the title in my feed and I was so scared that it said "Chris o Dowd turned a Booze Cruise Win into 5 months in *prison* ." O.o Glad I was wrong! XD

[@cantrip19]

7:08 Jeff Buckley reference. Miss you man. I hope you and Cornell are making harmonies together now.

[@amertint7886]

what only 4 comments ? he is hilarious

[@deborahallmont3008]

Surely this is the longest that Jimmy has been quiet in an interview 😁

[@pdopdopdop499]

How could he not save that story and come on Would I lie to you?

[@JohnnyRoseofVersailles]

That is the best story i've ever heard

[@andreaskarlsson5251]

Chris is bloody hilarious. Love that man!

[@mjw12345]

Hilarious! The Paris part was a good laugh!

[@mammybelle7302]

Is he "tipsy" again?!! 🤣

[@marybruun9621]

Chris O’Dowd...sooooooooo funny.

[@NeyJ]

this guy is definitely emotionally artistic

[@robinlaurita4663]

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

Finally interested in another Nick Hornby film. The last few have definitely been disappointing. Juliet, Naked wasn't that great a read but the film is getting solid reviews.

[@JaysusEscobar]

Chris: Last time they won was in 1998... Fallon: That's right~ Wtf...He obviously doesn't know and yet he's acting all nostalgic as if he remembered it so well!

[@JoshBWeaver]

I love Chris O'Dowd

[@PoppingMagic]

I fucking love this guy!!!

[@DezMarivette]

See now THAT'S how you turn a no into a yes!!

[@lauramelia660]

Why does he always sound like he’s drunk 😂😂😂

[@kimberlyjeanne9456]
