S6 E29: SLAPP Suits, Stupid Watergate II & Roger Stone: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

[@JjBb-sr1ln]

This is still arguably the best episode ever of any show in history.

[@LeahIsHereNow]

Agreed 😂

[@IngerWinkelmann]

Came here to say this!

[@er...]

💯👍

[@kiarya7939]

“Eat Shit Bob” is still the greatest piece of music to have ever come from the theater in New York 😂❤

[@charleswentworth1530]

Better than stomp that's for sure

[@AutumnMacGregor]

I still sing it from memory while almost asleep listening to this episode 🤣

[@deadmeat3gaming]

And lets be honest... you have to vibe to it when it plays.

[@ethzero]

Bob Murray, no longer bullying people into silence since 2020. #becausehesdead

[@DarthSatoris]

The last 10 months of his life were lived with the knowledge that John Oliver made a Times Square musical making fun of him that will live on forever.

Of black lung, ironically.

[@Rowsy91]

its a beautiful thing

[@unionsquaregrassman]

@@_somerandomguyontheinternet_sarcasm may be hurtful, but it’s the irony that kills you.

[@austinemms9772]

29:00 This is it, ladies and gentlemen, the magnum opus of “I Can Be This Petty With John Oliver”.

[@fogrepairshipakashi5834]

I do think HBO greatly enjoyed this check, because Bob Murray was an a$$.

[@_somerandomguyontheinternet_]

The greatest five minutes of HBO television ever-eat your heart out, Game of Thrones!

[@DrewSavo]

The fact that John hasn’t named his autobiography THAT is insane!

[@nialltucker5851]

The shear vitriol combined with pure petty joy on johns face at 33:25 is just amazing. A perfect embodiment of what we should all aspire to be 😂

[@sagaofsarahrose]

They won a damn Emmy for this

[@charleswentworth1530]

As they should have. They should have gotten every award for the musical alone

[@timf7679]

Instant classic, a new anthem for generations to come.

[@ferrifrigida]

I am so envious of the people who came to this taping, thinking it would be a regular episode and not a singularly legendary one

[@docseamonster3491]

This is why you don't start shit with a bard. See also: Not Like Us

[@corygrossman1]

"that lawsuit cost HBO over $200k!" He said while waiting to press play on a musical number making fun of Bob that cost $500k 🤣

[@_somerandomguyontheinternet_]

Ah yes, the SLAPP heard ‘round the world, and the song heard ‘round the internet. PETITION TO GET IT ON SPOTIFY AND APPLE MUSIC PLEASE!!!

[@FallenOne669]

It's already on Spotify. In podcast form, maybe, but it's still there.

[@_somerandomguyontheinternet_]

@@FallenOne669 I don’t have Spotify, sadly, only Apple Music 😭 Regardless, I’d like to have official versions.

[@MattMuir72]

Watching the stupid watergate bit in 2024 is insane, every 5th word is like getting flashbanged with an entire lifetime of repressed headlines

Indeed

[@Nate-r3f]

I love the Streisand Effect.

[@jomilchristianliza7043]

Ah yes, Bob Murray, that guy from the M&M store.

[@zumabbar]

Bob Murray, the guy with a small cylinder (5.1in length, ~4.5in girth) stucked in a mini M&Ms tube filled with butter and microwaved mashed banana?

[@jomilchristianliza7043]

@@zumabbar yup, he's the one. Apparently, he doesn't like Tom Hanks.

[@blackcatcrochet]

I love that he uses his platform to give a giant overdue FU to people at the top who have so much money and power that the rest of us can't touch them. He does it for us, and nobody does it better, more consistently, and obviously just funny af. ❤❤❤

[@arrow_awsome]

i would like to formally thank the writers of this show for the glory that is eat shit bob; it's by far the best musical to ever; and the fact that everyone clearly enjoyed telling that bastard to eat shit makes it even better somehow

[@DameAuxCatleyas]

Wow ! That finale was absolutely glorious ! 😂😂😂

[@mojeminifilmy1973]

yes! I've been waiting for this since they started publishing the full episodes!

[@annika9197]

thank you HBO. thank you.

[@Goblinkatie]

I don’t think LWT will ever be able to top this. It’s legitimately one of the best musical numbers of our generation.

[@Sandra-vi3yp]

OH. MY. GOD. I must have missed that episode, that broadway act is just phenomenal 😂💯👏

[@cleffa173]

I know Bob Murray’s official cause of death was complications from black lung, but I like to think that the musical number here is what ACTUALLY killed him. XD

[@GabrielMarinho]

That’s what I was waiting for this whole time

[@riverrunriot4323]

😂😂😂😂 I have no words. Absolute perfection.

[@eifbkcn]

Not sure if it's better or worse now that Bob Murray is dead, but it is different.

[@VampDemigod]

You mean now that he's dead?

[@eifbkcn]

@@VampDemigod must have been an odd autocorrect, but yes

[@LisaHoffman-pz9ey]

Rest in Peace, Bob. You asshole.

[@advanceringnewholder]

Bob Murray died from lung disease. Quite a poetic irony, for a man that's pro black lung

[@docseamonster3491]

Better. Definitely.

[@daanoverveld7616]

Single best item of the entire series

[@HelenLemink]

Well done HBO, well done....

[@john1970-n8k]

Best episode, best TV show, best song, best comedy special but the worst legal advice in broadcast or cable TV history. From the moment I saw ol' Bob's mug shot I knew what I was in store for. A good six minutes of laughs. John Oliver, you are a righteous comedian. Not a bad singer or dancer either. Carry on

[@angelowentzler9961]

Nothing will ever top that song

[@PremierCCGuyMMXVI]

Why does Roger Stone and most of Trump’s allies look like Bond villains?

[@john1970-n8k]

@@PremierCCGuyMMXVI because they are villains, does it matter whose?

[@YusukeE.Setsuna]

Now I remember why I loved this episode in particular XD

[@zumabbar]

this segment was what had gotten me into watching LWT. eat satan's sheet, bob

[@mister_snoogles9031]

I still think this was one of Johns best episodes 😅

[@francisbarp]

I don't know how many times I've write this already, but... I just LOVE this show.

[@NerdySTEMCutie]

Absolute masterpiece!!!! Epic episode!!! 🤩😍💖🥰🥳🫰🏻👌🏻🙌🏻🏆🗽💐

[@austinb3463]

As beautiful as the first time I heard it.

[@rakuko]

omg the Stone segment was unbelievable

[@iidsch]

Genuinely one of the best episodes ever, I'm glad I can finally watch the original

[@sweeperdave1]

This is a great as it was five years ago. Thanks John Oliver!

[@mdeliacloherty]

I return to this over the years for courage and joy.

[@notta_clever_handle]

I bet the dancers had so much fun with the Eat Shit Bob middle fingers 😂🎉

[@VeronicaRamirez-NWI]

My neighbors hate my guts at how wildly loudly I laugh watching your show. Quite disruptive of you. 😂 Keep it coming homie!

[@violetlove3580]

Godddddd I love you J.O. Just so much. Your content is so time sensitive and yet somehow you manage to be ✨️fully timeless✨️

[@toddurso4836]

This is honestly the biggest middle finger I’ve ever seen. Hilarious, bravo John Oliver , bravo.

[@NeuroSeasoned]

Instead of "god bless America," they should play "Eat shit, Bob" at every naturalization ceremony!!

[@TheStoryWhoNeverWas]

absolutely amazing how did i miss this one

[@zephyrmiv9661]

Watching this after the re-election is wild.....

[@Euronjuusto999]

Maybe the best episode oat?

[@pomamoba]

Finally, cinema

[@milascave2]

The actual quote is: "If you are not a Socialist at 20, you have no heart. If you're still a Socialist at 40, you have no head." The word "Liberal" is not in there at all.

[@mdudegamer]

A delightful episode of this show, particularly since it's about a problem (Bob Murray) which no longer plagues this country. Granted, SLAPP suits as a whole are still an issue, but sometimes we gotta celebrate the small victories.

[@doreenjacintho7812]

Awesome show🎉😂

[@apinakapina]

This is a true classic!

[@GolemsandGoblins]

31:33 I have no reasonable way to verify this, but it will always be my head cannon that this actually is their lawyer, and he just happens to be a really good singer 😂

[@elaineb7065]

All this slogging, & I've finally arrived!!! Bring on the music!!!

[@artrogers3985]

We need to live it again. Happy ground hog day. 🎸

[@rbanyuf]

I've been waiting for this episode 😂

[@Christian-vy3ch]

This is the best😂😂😂

[@BirdsNNVA]

The greatest production number that ever ended a late night comedy-news show. “Eat Shit Bob” makes much more sense as a tattoo than Richard Nixon’s face.

[@AngusYoung1973x]

00:59 he just forgot to turn off his ps4 in the oval office.

[@dfrank8599]

I think the saying goes, “if you’re not a liberal in your 20’s, don’t worry, there’s still time”

[@RickDuBois-e3w]

Fucking hysterical- if JO doesn’t win an award for this there’s no justice 😂😂😂

[@JSuper7]

6:10 - you can wear this shirt now and it’d make Project 25’ers big mad.

[@JC-wp1sq]

Against stiff competition, this remains the finest episode of this show-perhaps the finest on television. But, especially if Trump is elected Tuesday, I hope to see John make that a more difficult choice.

[@danielriggle]

hahaahaa!! that spite is legendary

[@violetlove3580]

Also, John can you PLEASE do a spinoff or mini-segment making fun of more ai cartoons making fun of you? Cuz you know we all need that, and it's all in good fun. LOVE YOU!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Was that Norm Macdonald in the squirrel suit? I miss that dude

[@Suzy24]

Hahahaha that was brilliant 👏🏻

[@MichaelWarman]

Isn't Bob Murray the guy who trippped up Gerbanguly Bernimahemidov's horse?

They have got to do similar when stupid Watergate comes to a crashing end with the election.

I wish there were full Lyrics for this piece of art. For people who English is not our first language is difficult to understand some parts of the song without subtitles.

Is THAT where that saying comes from ?? Churchill?? Ive heard it lots here in Canada as well

[@crispy.nuggets]

Lmao this is priceless.

[@hollishurd4464]

If not, sounds like another case

[@timothyball3144]

Just think: if Eat Shit Bob was still alive, he would probably be nominated to head the EPA.

[@ChaoSMyth...]

Pretty sure that would just make you independent.

[@hollishurd4464]

Hoping your insurance premiums went back down.

[@mr.henderson6421]

12:22 Christ on sale, the most pathetic thing about this part is that the squirrel effer legit believes what he’s saying 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@aabu4995]

Trump also sued Bill Maher for his claim that he must be an orangutan descendant. AND while double checking that apparently Laura Loomer has a week ago sued Maher for comments on a fairly recent HBO episode of bill Maher

[@ravenlit]

I love how much you can see Drumpf's actual hairline in that profile shot near the beginning. Everything about him is fake and overblown.

[@Vanq22114]

...I'm ashamed to admit it, but I really want to buy a Roger Stone stone. Or maybe steal one. I don't want to give him money. I just need to know that it exists in physical reality.
