Jim Gaffigan's Serial Killer Fan Letter | CONAN on TBS

[@Tony-lw3uz]

2:55 Jim starts the waterbed store joke. 3:06 Jim finishes the waterbed store joke. 3:11 Andy gets the waterbed store joke.

[@Vision_Voyagers]

You know, sometime you hear a joke and you were like, "Ah!! That's ok, not that funny." And then you say that joke in your head and start laughing. I think that was that.

[@bobhilton2643]

I don't get the joke. Can you please explain it to me? (Sorry, I'm not that smart)

[@satiethetutor3337]

"This book is called 'Dad is Fat' by Jim Gaffi.. What is it?" "Gaffigan.. Come on we have the same last name!!"

[@EnzoTheBaker]

What I like about Gaffigan appearances on Conan is that you hear Andy in the back genuinely laughing at some of the jokes. It's not the laugh they have for movie star guests. It's a real laugh at really good one-liners. I wish Jim was on more often.

[@jcb3393]

@Mercy Hale and Louis CK (before we knew he was a pervy predator)

[@LeagueofWut]

@@jcb3393 he isn't a predator, just a perv. People like you who use such labels without having even looked I to what happened are what destroy people's lives. Burn in hell.

[@CareyPortnoyBeauford]

Jim you are one of the most original/respectful comedians of our time. Keep it up brotha

[@deus666tebut]

FYI he is dead man. R.I.P Jim Gaffigan, great work and all the best for his wife and kids he left behind.

[@thehamburglar6279]

deus666tebut Google exists if you hadn't noticed

[@frankmacdougall1531]

deus666tebut He isn't dead.

[@deus666tebut]

he OD man. The young Turks had a story about him

[@frankmacdougall1531]

deus666tebut Bullshit. He is still alive. Google him and tell me what you find.

[@0FFICERPROBLEM]

"my dad's fat" + the expression! Expertly delivered young Gaffigan, good on you sir!

[@emirinobambino]

His children are absolutely adorable, and he seems to adore them

[@ascent8487]

I think he'd be a great and loving father.

[@timmyr6862]

Bryce He loves them just like he is their father.

[@jimdeiner9293]

What one A$$hole did the thumbs down!??

[@yellowblanka6058]

It's sad that a father adoring his children is the exception rather than the rule.

[@mommabear5059]

Yellowblanka it’s not an exception, it’s just that popular culture loves to ridicule men.

[@jacobharris4838]

He reminds me of Phillip Seymour Hoffman. His voice and his look.

[@ClickingHeads]

so white people all look the same huh? You racist bigots are ruining this planet.

[@jacobharris4838]

Jimmy Bunch really dude...

[@TheWord420Smith]

+Jimmy Bunch hahahaha

[@brentloy131]

+Jacob Harris Truth.

[@forray_forever]

+Jacob Harris yes he is already aware of this, capote joke? its in one of his specials i forget which

[@jedionwax]

"It's like I left peanut butter out or something." LOL!!!

[@Teutius]

"Funnier than the news"

[@richardleston5237]

+Jaximus Great title for a comedy special

[@mmmagus1]

+Jaximus Thumbs up for the Guts avatar.

[@neonpig5192]

+Siegfried now the news is 10x funnier after 1 year

[@lordtachanka903]

Siegfried such a great roast for such a young fellow

[@linshanhsiang]

2 WAYYY funnier.

[@solacepalisano5167]

deadpan..."That's only a fraction of how many children I have, Conan." I LOST IT and Conan didn't even acknowledge the statement

[@canessaj]

I can't look at him without thinking about Hot Pockets.

[@DKDonkeyThong]

Great. Thanks. Thanks to you I want a Hot Pocket. ...AND I DON'T HAVE ANY! AAAAAAAAAAHHH!

[@billthecat666]

How is the Hot Pocket prepared? It's heated in a dirty microwave. I'll have the Hot Pocket. I have an Idea. Let's take a Poptart and fill it with nasty meat!

[@theflanny10]

Hooooottt pockkettttt

[@bokchoiman]

+Nancy Barton I can't look at you without thinking about your hot pocket...mmm

[@firetoacat]

Nancy Barton hot pocket! God pocket!

[@alejandrom8742]

The peanut butter joke killed me hahaha!

[@guigal2]

He reminds me of a young Jim Gaffigan, except maybe 20 years older

[@TributetoJon12168]

so, like a current Jim Gaffigan?

[@bookrokodil]

+TributetoJon12168 lol you really fell for it?

[@MrLorddarktoothx]

69th like :^)

[@robertshaff2967]

bwahaha

[@convolution223]

that's such a gaffiganism

[@peterkovic2241]

Gotta love it when even Conan authentically cracks up.

[@reeblite]

I love this man because of his love of his family more than I did 20 years ago, he's my favorite comedian.

[@MadelineMckinnley]

"JIM THIS WAS CLEARLY WRITTEN BY A LITTLE BOY" LOLOLOLOLOL

[@user-bm4di5ns4g]

Lost it at "David Blaine." Go back and read the letter again in his voice, it doesn't seem impossible.

[@austindrapen8959]

I didn't know what david blane sounded like until you said this, so now I know, and I agree.

[@morelwilliams7133]

HA lol the boy's face is absolutely priceless! "What inspired you?"..."...My dad's fat!?"

[@jellyfishjames3504]

"I'm one of 6, but that was a different era, that was the late 19th century." My man looks pretty good for being over well 100 years old.

[@PandaAndFazer]

''PS: My Dad is fat too.'' Haha :D

[@QwopTheFrog]

Whoever wrote that letter has my brother's handwriting... (who is almost 21, btw)

[@Cardinalbins]

The name of your brother is david too? That'd be cool!

[@NickTBrick]

So he's 20?

[@Blissid_Waters]

👁️ Get him checked out...!

[@nathanielm9150]

Huh that’s better than my handwriting

[@JoeGilly95]

i handwrite in times new roman

[@eponymous_graphics]

WOW i hope that child's letter is real ! ... because he just got a major shout out from Jim Gaffigan by having his letter read on air ! that is very impressive. The reply letter is obviously not a real correspondence, but the punchline. What a great way to tell fans "yeah you matter to me." thumbs up.

[@marianomolina263]

Omg!!!... his kids are so cute- i would never go out and do comedy if I had such great kids, Jim!! You are a blessed man!!!

[@goldenboy7819]

He is one of the funniest comedians I know and a big favorite. I think it's because he an adverage looking guy but who is a comedic genuis in taking subjects like food and spinning it into sheer hiliarity.

[@jaridkeen123]

It's like I left peanut butter out or something

[@jacobdietz1444]

Hahaha. The bit at the beginning about the "serial killer letter" was great!

[@TheRealGunfish]

Jim Gaffigan is a silly Phillip Seymour Hoffman. :)

[@TheShortGirl666]

I'm surprised I'm not the only one to see that.

[@levaithan325]

What a clever tactic to plug.

[@politicsequalsgarbag]

I'M ON TO YOU, BLAINE!

[@christineparsons2384]

He is sooo funny. His kids are adorable, and sooo innocent. Love them all.

[@BelligerentSky]

3:33 The delivery. Perfect.

[@Ultimotomasino]

I love how pissed he looks like “OF COURSE MY DAD IS FAT”

[@joyceannbarton2868]

Jim is absolutely hysterical!!!😂😂🍭

[@lovipoekimo176]

Gaffigan would be a great replacement Plutarch Heavensbee.

[@Disembow1280]

Disagree.

[@bigbruthaman]

shitass

[@Adnan-lt5rn]

He looks like Phil Hoff, but that's about it. He's much too funny for that.

[@cpmow831]

I love the look he gives her when she asks what inspired him to write the title

[@CoolPandaTheMovieNerd]

That last child reaction to the book is so cute!

[@moonlily1]

I hand write letters. I'm not 90 or a killer, I just don't have a printer.

[@TubbierWombat]

There exists a thing called "E-Mail".

[@moonlily1]

There also exists a thing called 'literacy'.

[@TubbierWombat]

moonlily1 You don't need a printer. Writing E-mails doesn't mean you are illiterate. It's simple fucking information, you use a printer if you want to send a letter using something you made on a computer, but you can just use the *internet* to send the E-mail with little problems that will cost less and arrive at a much quicker time. You are not illiterate to use E-mail, you just use your time more efficiently.

[@moonlily1]

Tubbier Wombat I KNOW THAT. I use e-mails on a frequent basis. However, I don't like it that much, and the informality of the form has taken a negative toll on public language skills, not to mention the declining quality of handwriting legibility. There's a value in ACTUALLY WRITING SOMETHING. For one thing, I make fewer errors handwriting things and notice them when I do; the spontaneity and relative mindlessness of tying, I think, results in sloppier writing.

[@TubbierWombat]

moonlily1 Right, the sloppiness is from people not using spellcheck and ignoring education.

[@124c1]

That baby sounded like he cried "I don't knoooooow".

[@idkdamn978]

Late 19th century? Is Conan immortal?

[@inutonmoms]

Lol i thought the same thing haha

[@matrixphijr]

+No You're A Banana Nah. I mean, he's only around 130 years old... that's not immortal. Now, if it was the _early_ 19th century...

[@ElBribri]

hes a gigner so probably drank a lot of blood or stole a lot of souls back then

[@floridaLise]

It's So COOL seeing them that young. I love this family.

[@elizabethlizz3980]

its like I left peanut butter out or something 😂

[@Bmayo27]

3:12 - That joke legit got Andy cracking up!

[@kope1300]

Jim Gaffigan and Mike Birbiglia are two of the best comics out there, and neither one needs to swear every-other-word. Kudos! (and the rest can suck it!)

[@XReyProductions]

I just saw his show in Austin yesterday, and I am proud to say I hold the secret of knowing what his favorite type of Hot Pocket is.

[@DeathBringer769]

Davin Wong He tells everyone at his show. It's out there, people talk, already spoiled. It's practically been said publicly.

[@XReyProductions]

Then what is it?

[@DoctorPorkenfries]

XReyProductions The Hot Pocket Hot Pocket. It's a Hot Pocket in a Hot Pocket. It tastes just like a Hot Pocket.

[@clintmullins8670]

Lol that look of lil Jack with caliber delivery... Looking like he's gonna fill his dad's shoes!

[@josephhughes9300]

Anyone else notice Conan said "late nineteenth century"? That means 1800s. That actually wouldn't surprise me

[@mathewclark1407]

LOL @ "Left peanut butter out"

[@mistrdevine]

Aww so precious. Love the Gaffigan family. Let’s get cookin’!

[@NoiceRoice]

He reminds me of a funny seth rogen

[@AVirtualTourist]

+NoiceRoice Yeah, except Gaffigan ain't that fat!

[@NoiceRoice]

+GregMHouse haha true

[@richie8811]

+NoiceRoice That's an oxymoron. It's like saying, he's like a handsome ugly man.

[@J4Seriously]

+Rick Grimes Benedict Cumberbatch?

[@ruready4adventure743]

NoiceRoice And, less stoney as well.

[@IronCows]

That plug was sooo good

[@jafuni9349]

The baby's reaction LOL

[@TruongNguyen-hq6ed]

I never thought comedy can be clean and so funny.

[@angelmurphy914]

love jim make s my day when I'm sad

[@Kittyxoxo]

awe the kids are sooo cute omg :) you're an awesome dad and comedian! Go Jim!!

[@sarahebris]

3:57 CUTENESS OVERLOAD!!!!

[@killabeast3057]

so im laaaaate on this but did conan just say late 19th century?? 😂😂😂 too good

[@beadyslay]

With the number of his children, I initially thought that he's a Mormon. Turns out to be Catholic.

[@Kemonokami]

+Button Nose "He could be a mascot for the Mormons!"

[@beadyslay]

Kemonokami Hahaha. True

[@katanacutie]

+Button Nose Hahaha I'm a mormon and reading your comment made my night

[@beadyslay]

***** :D

[@beadyslay]

***** I'm not Catholic. I'm more exposed to Protestantism and it's different sects. Do all Catholic sects disallow all kinds of contraceptives? For example, I have read that for the Jewish faith, condoms are not allowed but pills are allowed.

[@matthewtop]

When he started mentioning how he enclosed his autographed book in the letter, and no one laughed for like 10 seconds, I got pissed lol

[@sheilahollley7129]

He is a gem! And his kids are priceless.

[@jeremyhicks7490]

"It's like I left peanut butter out or something" hahahaha

[@gusparkwood4890]

His book was hilarious. His comedy is great. One of the best comics working today.😃

[@lorrie2878]

This is years old and funny as hell!

[@lynnjohn1234]

Hahaha! That was amazing. I love the voices. Poor kid.

[@Mgranadosv]

It would have been awesome for him to show his letter and for it to be handwritten by a kid too.

[@HappyHeck]

"What inspired you to write the title?" "My dad's fat" haha

[@bigeric1030]

Scott McCrory I laughed like Hell at that!

[@krauser8429]

hahaha his shameless self promotion with the letters. very clever

[@emmarie2786]

I love Jim Gaffigan. :)

[@TWOhype23]

Jim is great with an audience. Listen to the amount of laughs he gets every time compared to other comedians that come on the show

[@VK-pk8uz]

Conan's from the late 19th century? Somehow I suspect he's off about a hundred years.

[@joeyparrish5121]

Or he really is a vampire bwahaha

[@zyxwut321]

Yeah, Conan looks like one of those late 19th century photos of new Irish immigrants just coming in from Ellis Island. Just put him in a tweed jacket and a plaid cap.

[@TheCyberToad]

Most people probably figured he meant the late 1900's and thought, "Well, so was I."

[@jasonbyrd4233]

I listen to his stand up on Pandora, He makes me laugh so hard.

[@rspainter7896]

"It's like I left peanut butter out or something".😂

[@bananaear]

I love how he chose the letter-writer to have a Boston accent

[@Breezy-bv9te]

His children are little Sweathearts!! Love this episode! 💞💞💞💞

[@jynx2501]

HOLY SHIT! Little Jack looks just like Jim when he says, "My dad's fat..." HAHAHAHAHA

[@jibrailhassanbalato6719]

Lmao, i remember 3:03 when he used that joke on one of his specials And the joke at 4:34 i think the special of 4:34 is from mr. Universe

[@rayherbst6655]

My wife doesn't get his humor, but I love it!

[@jshepard152]

Ray Herbst - Divorce her.

[@Utonian21]

What's there not to get? It's pure clean comedy.

[@deathraygonzo6339]

Pretty smooth book pitch there Jim.

[@2150yes]

one of the funniest underrated comedians ever

[@nthisday3184]

😂😂 Jim Gaffigan is dope.

[@levimon]

great interview

[@d-rob9265]

3:10 Andy's offscreen laugh killed me!

[@hawksfan8870]

"Jim, this was clearly written by a little boy!" "That or a murderer."

[@yellowstonekv959]

Two of my very favorite men! Love it!

[@herculydia]

His kids are so cute! Now we get to watch Dinner with the Gaffigans during quarantine. Totally great entertainment!

[@Turco949]

Jim G., Bill B. and Louis CK, my 3 favorite comedians who are still live and kicking!

[@SH-wk8hn]

"They should be punished." lol

[@erikandrus4387]

I have a prediction that Baby Patrick will grow up to be 6'8".

[@lukaskapelkemusic]

When he reads out his response to the letter he sounds a bit like Caspar Lee :D

[@Sabrowsky]

man you gotta love jack's reasoning

[@randy95023]

This bit is friggin' hilarious!! I see a lot of funny stuff on KZbin but THIS bit just got me for some reason...

[@cowleshome]

Gaffigan is a cross between Andy and Conan lmao.

[@bumlessbarry173]
