John Oliver: HBO Will Never Find Out How Much All The "Last Week Tonight" Mascots Cost

John Oliver says they no longer keep the very expensive mascots from "Last Week Tonight" in a closet at the office because too many children were terrified when they stumbled on the headless costumes. #Colbert #LastWeekTonight #JohnOliver

@@mondoshredder5783 😃 Yes, to quote a Turkish guy: "In Turkey there are 2 religions, Islam and football." There's a lot of social, economic and political significance and symbolism in the sport, hence the passion. You have workers' teams, rich people teams, army teams, police teams, railroad workers' teams, aristocratic teams, etc. with all the social, economic and political implications. It's ok to say American football (but you need the qualifier to make sure we understand what you mean). American football is still a version of football. The word itself didn't mean it's played WITH the foot, kicking a ball, but because it's played ON foot (as opposed to sports like polo, played on horseback). Rugby itself is the sister sport of football, the official name is rugby football (i.e. football played using the Rugby School rules). The term soccer is originally English in fact and it's derived from asSOCiation football (i.e. football player using the rules of the English Football Association - the FA, this is the official name of the sport). At one point there was a divorce between rugby and football as a result of a debate over which rules to use. The term soccer is also used in places like South Africa or Australia (parts of the former British Empire which stuck with the term soccer, which again, is in fact originally English).

[@octavianpopescu4776]

@@mondoshredder5783 I did see some Australian football. The ID... that's my actual name 😃 But yes, I do have Greek origins, I'm Eastern Orthodox by religion like Greeks/Byzantines, although overall I'm Latin (hence the Roman Emperor first name) and I'm Romanian (the country is named after Rome).

I'd like to say that this is because they're both amazingly funny guys, but how much credit can we realistically give each man? I mean, they've both got teams of writers to compile their scripts and to put their jokes together, etc, so how much of the love we have for these entertainers is actually misplaced and should more rightfully be directed at the talented, yet unseen writers, on whose shoulders these Giants of entertainers stand? Then again, we'd be doing these men an awful disservice if we fail to acknowledge their contributions in the delivery of those lines, those jokes and those conversations, written by the aforementioned writers. I mean, I can't imagine that Arnold Schwarzenegger would be able to make people laugh, even if he had the exact same staff as Stephen Colbert and/ or John Oliver, writing the exact same lines/ jokes/ etc... I don't imagine Sylvester Stallone, or Dean Cain or Vin Diesel would be able to take Colbert's or Oliver's scripts and be able to elicit the same degree of laughter that these men are regularly responsible for. I guess what I'm trying to say is; These guys are damned funny fuckers, but we should always bear in mind that there's a team of writers behind these men who deserve a percentage of this laughter (?)...

If they don't want to "Last Week Tonight and chill," I am not interested. I have watched all the episodes so many times, I like to put on John Oliver and let his hilariously snarky voice lull me to sleep. It balances me out because I have the soothing familiarity of John's voice along with all the frightening information his shows provide. I also like to use him to wake up in the famous depression and anxiety med mix of weed and coffee. John Oliver is my weed and coffee morning mix.

I immediately thought John would be Gonzo.

You mean Beaker?

[@bkzone8]

@@ashleyhoughton8592 Beeker was my second choice. I m talking about Gonzo, the blue/purple guy with the hooked nose...

Fun fact - I did actually watch last week tonight on a first date with someone after we came back to my place. We broke up after a year but I did turn them into a fan of the show

I could listen to these two talk for days ❤

[@Bonifazius00]

This isnt an interview. or a host having a guest over. Its just two friends who forget they are beeing recorded and I wouldnt have it any other way!

You forgot about Mark, he's like the parental supervision?

"Thoughts on the impeachment?" - 1 joke = 15 seconds worth. "About this mascot" - 10 minutes...

I’ve missed John Oliver so much...can’t wait for Sunday’s show!

Why does Stephen look like a dad on a camping trip in a commercial? 🤣

"Last Date Tonight with John Oliver"

[@johnchessant3012]

Wow, it's been a long 3 months. A void of John Oliver that we've all had to endure.

[@shinyagami8843]

Stephen & John side by side do look like Statler & Waldorf a bit 😂 Always spot on

I love the description of T****'s lawyer as a beat poet.

[@liamnehren1054]

the sexual tension between John Oliver and Danbury as well as John Oliver and Adam Driver
