Mike Birbiglia Goes on a Rant About People Saying He Looks Like Paul Rudd

[@aaronpeart]

Birbigs is one of the best storytellers ever to grace the stage. Funny but also poignant, able to do the mother of all callbacks. I can't wait to see his next special!

[@Sharonmxg]

What I Should Have Said Was Nothing is how I first discovered Mike's work. Huge fan.

[@einna420]

Love this guy!!! was so excited to see him, knew I'd laugh before he even spoke. 🥰 did not disappoint!

[@azathothwakesup]

I've been a fan of this guy ever since i saw his Comedy Central Presents episode waaaaay back on 06!!

[@jrojala]

I feel like Mike is one of the greatest comedians of my generation.

[@PopeLando]

I like that Rudd helped Mike out with the trick photograph, but not so much as to bother changing his coat.

[@RVCfilm]

Mike Birbiglia's new show is really funny and really does make you have moments of pondering your own death. Four stars, would recommend.

[@ajkandy]

Mike is a blend of Tom Hanks and Phil Hartman.

[@priscillachapman9145]

That’s what I saw first was Tom Hanks.

[@h7opolo]

once he walked out on stage, i laughed to tears, before he even spoke a single word.

[@canadianhappyinitalytruest6556]

I’ve always thought he was a close lookalike to Matthew Rhys (especially as Clark from the Americans, ha ha!)

[@marvinmartin4692]

Mike is one of the best comedians out there!!!!

[@lethalenoki]

His first 2 albums were always my go-to when I was having a bad day at work. Overplayed 'em but maybe it's been a while. Also, Birbiglia is willing to go out of his Verified mentions on social media and engage with his nonfamous fans. That's surprisingly rare nowadays.

[@LvndrHppE2]

He had bladder cancer and he played a cancer survivor in The Fault in our Stars 😮

[@vanessawhitneypro]

Saw his show in Los Angeles... SO funny and moving...

[@JonnyDIY]

Lol that review declaring Paul Rudd be cast as Mike 🤣💕👍🤦‍♂️

[@statman64]

"The YMCA has not made a formal statement" is an all-time great tease

[@Amy-kr4tc]

It’s hilarious that the description for this segment says Mike B went on a “rant.”😂 I think he was just sharing facts that are funny.

[@reneekad]

Laying Naked on the Bathroom Floor is a shot I loved

[@CR-jq2dk]

I'm an actor also! 😂

[@patcomerford5596]

Those people are blind, there is absolutely no way that Mike looks like Paul. The only thing that makes them look alike is the color of their skin.

[@ericminch]

Also, didn't they co-share the title of People Magazine's "Most Sexiest Man" of 2022?

[@patcomerford5596]

[@PBthesquirrel]

Ok, I love the trick shot with Paul Rudd. The only thing keeping it from being a 10/10 is the jacket and hand position. Come on, guys! You're actors! You know what continuity is! But fr real though, it's a cute photo and they probably had a great time. 👍💜

[@frolickinglions]

Why is Seth dressed up tonight? I like smart casual Seth.

[@noellerose3453]

It's the holidays!

[@noodle3218]

I’m hoping / thinking it’s just for Bruce Springsteen who was the first guest

[@JesseClaus]

He looks sorta like a “Tom Hanks-ed” Matt Damon.

[@KBerry-ug5zx]

I don't see Paul Rudd, but I do see Tom Hanks (in profile).

[@ericv.3647]

I think Mike looks more like Bob Odenkirk the Paul Rudd. He has the same smile.

[@NewMessage]

Looks like Paul Rudd.... after being pulled out of the Hudson 2 days after he 'went missing'?

[@amonrodriguez3518]

Lol exactly. Pretty sure he’s trying to start a thing where people say he looks like Rudd

[@KW-ro5ow]

That's funny 🤣

[@amonrodriguez3518]

I like his comedy. But Dude, no one has ever said this goofy looking guy looks like Paul Rudd

[@magica3526]

he does look like if paul rudd fell down the stairs to the subway

[@markhalver3391]

Oh my mistake for the comment on the last video, NOW I see why you wore the suit.

[@HOGuru]

Not to be the 'that's your movie' guy, but obviously the movie is a fictionalized autobiography where Mike plays himself, but whenever he's going to do something that makes him look unsympathetic Paul Rudd gets tagged in because the producers want to make sure the audience stays on the his side. Eventually Paul gets annoyed because he's the reason people are watching the movie, and so he should get to do some of the fun stuff as well, and it turns into a conflict between Mike and Paul over who deserves to be the movie version of Mike Birbiglia.

[@dmblum1]

He doesn't look like Paul Rudd.

[@TheSuzberry]

Not even on a good day.

[@tnp1047]

Some mannerisms are similar. I think that's what people see.

[@rosiewreckedum]

That's the joke.

[@jackbirdman7491]

Yeah, Paul Rudd is a little better looking, maybe try listening next time!

[@heatherhellickson9166]

No? But he is a COMEDIAN!!!! Duh

[@gwerith]

Mike is the best. Mousechusets.

[@jeffmccloud905]

love Mike since his first CD. a weird thing I think is so cool is that his favorite comedian is Doug Stanhope (who could not be more polar opposite than Mike). and I've heard Stanhope say that he loves Mike's comedy and would listen to his CD in the car

[@barbarahering484]

Watched it on Netflix , worth watching.

[@WalkingmanPattaya]

Wow Seth, you have a sports jacket on..😂.seems like ages ago since you dressed up 🤣. Another great show my KZbin and former SNL friend ☮🥰

[@WakandaSykes]

I was not prepared to see Seth in a blazer in 2022

[@h7opolo]

we're truly in the golden age of comedy

[@tonelar415]

u know who could also play Birbigs? Bob Odenkirk.

[@eme.261]

Mike looks far more similar to Bob Odenkirk than Paul Rudd. 🧐

[@007coleyfoley]

COLEY FOLEY SAYS: THOSE PICS SIDE BY SIDE WERE HILARIOUS... HAHAHA! ("CRACKER WHAT"...? HAHAHA! "UH, THIS"... HAHAHA!)

[@joelrepp]

Comedy is public therapy.

[@Succubusisis]

He looked more like Chris Farley in that picture with John Hodgman and Seth.

[@lozenger8]

Let's be real, even if he's almost 10 years older, Paul Rudd looks like Mike.

[@drunkpaulocosta]

Nah its about whos born first for who you say looks like who

[@lozenger8]

This approach was an existential threat to me.

JR wrote something in his video game review related to my brother I think

[@pqrstsma2011]

"you look like Paul Rudd" now i can't unsee this

I remember the Robin Williams magazine that said he died with his eyes looking to the left

[@reneekad]

And a bunch of trans related photos

[@sir_vix]

Mike looks like Nixon in the photo at 2:48

[@priscillachapman9145]

Is his new show on NETFLICKS?

[@martinlye2748]

I like Mike.

[@heatherhellickson9166]

It is a very good joke!! Golly, have to explain everything!

There was that stripper who had a Bob cut who said a Senator from TX was obsessed with her and would prevent her from working.

“Bears.”

[@supergran676]

seth took his mom to a show. man, i knew there was a good reason to love him. as a great gran i really need to go to a theatre just once more. now, you still havent acknowledged that trump is under house arrest. What's it gonna take. he doesn't go anywhere, now does he.

whoever comes up with these titles is really phoning it in

...At least it's descriptive. But yea lol

[@irinaphoenix2169]

BIRBIGS!!!

[@jpg2273]

Why can’t I get past his socks??

[@SussexSandra]

Looks like he just finished hiking in the snow

[@TXpatriate]

With the white sneakers on, too. Mensch'n along

[@daylightrambler]

I don't think any episode of Late Night has featured so much forehead.

[@tmattoneill]

Why the jacket?

[@ofeksh]

STOP POSTING THE SECOND PART OF THE INTERVIEW FIRST! DAMN!

[@SussexSandra]

He looks nothing like Rudd

[@dianapevtsov]

He sounds like Paul Rudd after some Nyquil.

[@judeangione3732]

He's a non-symmetrical Paul Rudd. The left side of his face really looks like Rudd, but the right side less so. They should do DNA. Bernie Sanders and Larry Sanders turned out to be second or third cousins.

[@williamkittler]

I’m sitting here watching the interview and thinking to myself… I wonder which actor would play Seth? And I’m going through the Hollywood A-list. Tom Cruz, no, too athletic. Nick Cage, no, too eccentric. Stanley Tucci, not Jewish enough. No, after long contemplation the only Hollywood star I could think of was… Paul Rudd. So, sadly, if Paul end up playing both you and Birbiglia that means you’re going to end up with a Star Trek/XMen conundrum with Sir Patrick Stewart playing both Professor X and Picard at the same time… Paul couldn’t play BOTH off you at the same time!!! 🤯

[@chrissupport]

Never heard of either one.

[@beckg777]

No Mike. No one has EVER said that. Stop trying to make ‘fetch’ happen. 😂

[@djc6323]

Nothing like Paul Rudd…sorry not sorry. But goals are 👍🏾 to have.

[@freya8133]

Paul Rudd? Doesn't he mean Phil Rudd??

[@линапетрова-э4м]

Clever eagle 16

[@iponczk]

Looks more like Brett Kavanaugh tbh

[@snoski]

No offense to Mike, but how in the hell does he look like Paul Rudd even remotely???

[@juanitanagel380]

John Ritter maybe..

[@phillylilmermaid7802]

Sorry you Mike but I don’t see it.

Why is Seth wearing a jacket? boooooooooooooooo

Just came here to comment that I still have no idea who this guy is and I have no interest in learning about him 🤣🤣 never heard of him once in the last 26 years and suddenly he hosted Kimmel a few times.
