Horrible kids movies | Watch THE SKINNY on Hulu

[@Aaron-in7lt]

This is the Jim Gaffigan we know love and miss❤

[@TinPictish]

I so look forward to these snippets. They make my day!

[@Aaron-in7lt]

This is the kind of wit humor and insight that made food a love story such a pleasure to read I always quote that line about grits if you like the taste of biscuits and gravy without the taste of biscuits and gravy then you'll love our man-made wet sand. I recommend it to everybody! The book not grits😊

[@FisherMan-bh9dn]

Never once went to the theater growing up. I was an adult when I went to see the first Star Wars movie. I still can remember the opening scene! Sure beats the screen on our 19 inch black and white TV.

[@oltedders]

I got to go to the movies by myself. I could walk to the shopping center where the theater was located. I saw Peyton Place when I was 9 years old. They could have extended some of the scenes, IMO.

[@talandelana6873]

Today, the opposite is true. Loud teens on their phones and outrageous prices. Nice big TVs and peace at home with thousands of movies to choose from.

[@FisherMan-bh9dn]

@@talandelana6873 That's true. I don't own a television but plan on getting one eventually. I have a good sound system already so I'll be set. Now the difficult part is finding something worthwhile to watch.

[@preciousone5496]

I cannot imagine that! We went to the movies a lot when I was a kid, especially the drive-in! One of the very, very few fond memories of my childhood.

[@FisherMan-bh9dn]

@preciousone5496 I had a great childhood. A huge loving family, lived on the beach and played sports for the entire time. Movies were just not something we did.

[@zaneadams4169]

Love it! That's how we saw movies. From whenever my Dad got there until the end. But we at least watched the movie in its entirety the second time. But I get it. "The movie starts when we get there."

[@stationminute]

Yeah, our dad too would take us to the theater, pick a movie based on the poster, buy tickets, and walk us in regardless of when the movie actually started. If he didn't like the ending, we didn't stay for the beginning. My earliest movie memory is seeing the last few scenes of 101 Dalmatians and then heading back to the car.

[@cathyparks3854]

My Dad took us to see Saturday Night Fever when I was about 6 years old 😂😂

[@nielstenbrink]

I love how at the end he subtly hints at the horrible shift of political norms and values in the US.

[@FisherMan-bh9dn]

Thankfully they were defeated in the last election.

[@thunderax]

It's not just the US. Germany has it's own problem with it's growing shift back to the Nazis

[@jacobfields8111]

It would be even funnier if it weren't so sad.

[@FuckGoogle2]

@@jacobfields8111 Yeah people being pro-Hamas in the US, I never thought you'd stoop so low.

[@pablot-r9402]

Synonymous with freedom. Too much variety, not enough focus.

[@tommymorgan73]

Jim is just the best 😂😂😂😂

[@KD-uh8zw]

I was very lucky to go to the movies in the 1960s in Brisbane Australia. My mother, younger brother and myself would catch the train from another town and meet my grandmother in Brisbane. We saw films like Mary Poppins, the Jungle Book and others. Those were special days and eating lunch at the Coles diner capped the day off.

[@VultureClone]

"That joke was even funnier when everyone hated Nazis." Funny but also sad.

[@mers3481]

Ouch! 😱

[@AL13NM]

Sad indeed. Wait till The Others take offense at this truth.

[@Black-eyedSusan]

BRILLIANT! You and your wife would make fantastic childrens’ movies. 🍿 do it

[@lucialamprey2690]

Excellent. Thank you, Jim. There is another side to the Pretty Ponny pain. Being dragged to the 3-hour "Greatest Story Ever Told." Which was 6 hours in kid time. David McCallum played Judas for some truly unknown reason, so we cheered on Judas.

[@bnrcd]

The alibi lol

[@gaelsweeney1903]

My old man took me to see Lord Jim when I was 9.

[@breebarry4422]

Last joke... Perfection 🤌

[@joretta8251]

I remember going with my friend and paying good money to see the Munster movie! LOL!

[@daowonimdee]

0:51 So much for Jim not swearing. Guess he lost the fairweather fans for that cuss word. 😂😂

[@veronicafinocchi9550]

I love Jim! One curse word shouldn't cause an uproar. It may have come about as he was relaying what his father said. Every other word being one is a problem. It makes a comedian sound unintelligent. Jokes can be funny without being crass.

[@parryyotter]

He swore (and not for the first time but I digress). So now the hoard of comments about him being a clean comic can finally stop haunting us all.

[@jribakove]

But Jim Gaffigan was able to use this experience responding to his children to develop as a dramatic actor.

[@MamaTtoB-P]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@NancySullivan-u2w]

movie memories: monstrous or marvelous.

[@peggykuhn9290]

We went to drive ins to see movies when I was young! Didn't see crap like the smurfs. Saw Mary Poppins and other good movies.

[@DrTomoculus]

I would go on a rant about the many bad kid's movies I saw, and my outright hatred for The Polar Express. But instead I'm going to suggest the movies I actually really enjoyed watching with my kid. And didn't mind if it was repeated watching. Often times, the movie would get funnier the more one got to see it in detail. OPEN SEASON 2. Forget Open Season 1. The gold is in Open Season 2, and Crispin Glover's portrayal of Fifi, the insane poodle, is genius. I still quote dialogue from this movie to this day. OVER THE HEDGE Nowhere near as good as Open Season 2, but its enjoyable. Plus Ben Folds soundtrack makes it enjoyable. BARNYARD (also known as Barnyard: The Original Party Animals) Hilarious. Absolutely hilarious. THE FANTASTIC MR. FOX Everyone knows this movie is good. It's the only Wes Anderson movie I like. Thanks Jim for sharing the pain of kid's movies.

[@objection_your_honor]

Hard coded subs? Not good.

[@edmadrinan2022]

I wonder if Jim let's his kids watch his shows even if just on videos.

[@alvideos2145]

I actually enjoyed this, makes the movie shorter, plus you can watch it again up until the point you walked in the first time, and see the beginning.

[@entwinedturnip]

Hey, it’s Jim’s first ever curse word!

[@jessicasager72]

Hell yea.

[@waynec8894]

Why not I told my son if the movie was shit I told him and yes my dad would take use to a movie he would leave half way to go to the pub

[@andrewhall7930]

Has Jim completely dropped his high pitch third person voice? The one that comments like an audience member? The voice was everywhere on his first four specials ( mr. Universe, Cinco, king baby, family values,) is it dead?

[@thegoodpimps]

I think Jim dropped it because he’s been performing for his audience so long and released so many specials. That voice represented audience members who didn’t much know who they watching.

[@fredericklewandowski4748]

No ...but I wish you were

[@jessicasager72]

I love trolls.man. Christina Baranski as the Bergen is an iconci character.

[@robstimson4234]

l walked out on 'Rugrats' when my kids were in the theater. Probably smoked cigarettes in the parking lot worrying about how they were going to turn out after that movie.

[@mbyrd6713]

Oh Jim, I see what you did there 😉

[@mettamorph4523]

Packed a stiletto in that last joke 😮😊

[@waynec8894]

But people to soft to day

[@jonl1034]

I've been following Jim for well over 20 years, so I bring a fair amount of experience in asking this question: has he started to swear? I couldn't believe it when he said "horsesh*t" and used "hell" in a swearing manner. Don't get me wrong, I'm no prude - love Carlin and Black and all the best cussers. But Jim was in that class of comedian where he didn't NEED to swear to be funny. Maybe he's just given in to the effects of the Goddam Christian Nationalists (the ones who don't hate Nazis).

[@thegoodpimps]

Jim used to swear on first CDs, his big influence was Dave Attell.

[@mittelschwerekatastrophe3042]

Am I the only one who thinks that Jim‘s medication is having a negative impact on the quality of his jokes? I really do not want to step on his toes but if his previous programs were 100% funny then his current program is 60-70% at best. IMHO it is lacking that special something that made him Jim. Might be farfetched but when listening to his jokes about his medication and how they make him feel it does somehow make sense. But, again, I may just be the only person feeling this way.

[@cattysplat]

Lacks the bite of his older performances. Very restrained to impersonate another person and do any "silly voices" to avoid offending them.

[@Janette-l3w]

He changed completely. The Organization got him. They told him to sell whiskey. They told him to go on medication . This is show business , and it's evil. It also happened to my dear favorite comedian, John Pinnette. His death iin a hotel at age 50 does not make sense , and to me is suspicious. John also lost a ton of weight. He also changed, lost his humor .

[@Ecosse57]

that last bit about the national socialist party clearly a veiled swipe at democrat's expense.

[@SeanGreen-k2w]

It must be nice to live in an alternate universe where everything is the opposite of the real world. 😅

[@biblehistoryscience3530]

​@SeanGreen-k2w, what was the immediate response of ivy league universities to October 7?

[@editorgyrl17]

Don’t think the Dems are the neo-Natzis in America today 🙄

[@twentyfifthdui4717]

It's a not veiled swipe about democracy's demise.

[@editorgyrl17]

@@Ecosse57 uhhh, yeah, I think that swipe is aimed at the other side. The side with all the other flags.

[@bradallen1511]

First time I have ever hear Jim use profanity. Sorry to see what makes him unique go by the wayside. Jim you’re funny indeed. No profanity needed. Don’t go there. I want to share you with friends. 0:15

[@benjaminnewman7688]

[@privatename7936]

It’s sad people think that by knowing vocabulary like “norms and values” they think they’re saying something about “shifts in America.” 🥱
