Michael McIntyre: Americans Don't Understand English | The Jonathan Ross Show

[@rageneburks2306]

I’m an American and I love Michael! He beats 98%of our stand up comics. He is never offensive and he is hilarious. I watch all I can find on KZbin. Come on over!

[@PARoth2011]

This American absolutely loves him, he’s hysterically funny and so witty. He captures life as it is and makes it so relatable. I’m glad he has so many videos, watching him brightens my day.

[@charlottecolley8713]

Yes!

[@dianeyoung2914]

I watch him too but I also watch Peter Kay clips because he is another British comedian who is absolutely hilarious, you should go watch if you haven't already. His misheard lyrics are so funny and the songs he picked I can't ever hear in the same way lol

[@PH_1964]

Thank you for being an American that doesn't need canned laughter ❤

[@LorenWilliams-t5f]

Same, American also. LOVE Send to All! Die Laughing. Love him & Ricky G. 😂

American here. Michael McIntyre is a riot! He absolutely needs to do shows here!

[@jacetaneneko_vt]

The Wheel on NBC is his only show, I would love him to do more shows over there because I think he'd do well.

[@rabmcnair4488]

Please take him.

[@jhutch1681]

And in Canada!

[@christistratton]

I saw him first on a video talking about "Getting your children out of the house" and how people without children have NO idea how difficult it is. I've been a fan since then, and yes, I do want to see more because he is wonderful.

[@loretta3203]

@ that's my favorite! ❤️

[@dianeyoung2914]

It's strange to me how many people hate him, I think he is brilliant, his comedy is so relatable that you can't help but imagine yourself in any situation he talks about. He is my favourite kind of comedy, can't relate to comedians who just swear, or talk about politics etc.

[@MagycArwen]

Same.

[@UffeErupLarsen]

Well said. 👏👏😊

[@KuiWagacha]

WHO HATES HIM???!!! LOVE LOVE LURVVE!!!!!

[@Shorty-uh9ks]

The majority of people especially in the UK love him. Those who don’t like him tend to just shout the loudest lol

[@marchy0710]

wait what people hate him?

[@Marykguise]

Michael is hysterical!! I’m an American and I would love to see him over here. His jokes about us were brilliant!!

[@rabmcnair4488]

I would be happy if you would take him and never let him come back.

[@melaniekendall4903]

He's not even funny

[@infiniteinspiration1628]

Definitely hysterical 😂😂😂😂😂

[@simongreen3646]

Absolutely. His level of asininity would go down well in America

[@smithchasea]

Pffft, nice try British man. We don’t use the word brilliant. 😜

[@paulinefollett3099]

I am from Australia and I think he is one of the naturally funny comedians ever.

[@slayorcs]

Another Australian who agrees with you

[@saurabhsinghmakrahi]

I seriously doubt anyone has come close to how sharp his humour is. As for him being endearing…I doubt anyone could ever hate him. He’s adorable he’s lovable. Fabulous comedian.

[@infiniteinspiration1628]

Absolutely outstanding comedian 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@OperaJH]

Unfortunately, quite a number of people have expressed their disdain and dislike for him in comments. I myself have countered their malicious, and nasty comments many times.

[@infiniteinspiration1628]

@@OperaJH very sad 😔 hey

[@catherinewilliams3850]

@@OperaJH Yes it's usually people whose idea of comedy is a lot of swearing, they idolise the "comedians" whose every other word is a a swear word, they don't appreciate real talent.

I love this guy!! I’m an American and would go see him. What he said about us just now had me in tears. Love his humor.

[@aspie4jc]

If you hae time and money, he'll be in NYC next month, September 2023. There are tickets available for his show on the 14th. (NYC is the only city he goes on his "world" tour.)

Another American here...he is absolutely GREAT!!!!!Bless him for making me honestly laugh until l couldn't speak!!!!!

[@kirnpu]

And he's done wonderfully funny shows that have me gasping for breath. My all-time favorite bit of his though is The Dentist!!!!!

[@ronitennant5253]

​@kirnpu same here! I had to pause the video until I could breathe again!

[@sandrasmith2465]

I liked the show he did when he had Gary Barlow on from Take That and they had secretly filmed people in pubs doing karaoke and then had them in the audience it was so funny 😂

Michael McIntyre is quite handsome. His hair is brilliant. He is a wonderful writer and performer. I’m so glad to have run across his work.

[@anniekalaydjian7571]

How can anyone not like Michael M. He is so lovable, witty, quick and humble too, such a family man. Watched so many of his videos he is hillarious. 😅❤

[@colleengunn3934]

I’m Canadian and thanks to KZbin I watch your shows all the time.love them.

[@kellynewman8492]

I love him. He became famous without all the cursing. I'm old fashioned, I do wish he would go back.

[@melyalvarez9262]

... and then, when he swears, it makes it all the more funny. He only and occasionally uses swearing as enhancing rather than the joke itself. Brilliant!

Has he retired?

Try Peter Kaye … hope you can understand him …. Watch car-sharing ….

[@debparker7239]

I've been watching Michael on KZbin for probably two years now. He is the only standup comedian that I would buy tickets to see, and, yes, I'm American.

[@pauladaffron4897]

He is so funny without being obnoxious!🎉

[@margaritabishop6595]

He has me laughing all through his shows no matter how long it is he's wonderful just funny thank you

[@surfsister100]

I didn't know much about Michael until I came across his autobiography on KZbin. He read it, himself, so I got a full picture of his life and how he came to be the man he is today. After that I watched anything posted about him. The Unexpected Guest segment of his show is hilarious, and he is hilarious and he watches it unfold. I am an American and he gives me a glimpse of what English people like in their humor.

[@abornbuyer]

Since KZbin posted a video of Michael McIntyre I have been hooked! He is by far the funniest comedian I know. And the only issue that I ever had wasn't understanding his comedy act but some of the celebrities from Britain that he talked about that I didn't know. So I personally think that he would be awesome in the US especially on the West Coast! Living in Nevada ya know. Even though I know he is performing in New York later this year (2023) I believe...so bummed! Because I would definitely save whatever I had to just so I could see him live. There has never been another comedian that talks about everyday stuff and makes it hysterical!!! The woman's tights skit gets me every time!!!

[@marinamartens1334]

You might like ISMO too

[@Rachel-art-and-design]

As an American I must say He is the funniest comedian ever. I have to be careful to not pee my pants when I watch his shows. I would love to see him live, with the loo close by.

[@DebbieAnn-nk3lm]

Aussie here! He came to Adelaide in South Australia in about 2019. I was so thrilled that he did a show in our city when we are so often overlooked by big names. He made some funny jokes about our city which we appreciated and enjoyed. Such a thrill. PS He is much better looking than the North Korean leader.

[@margeparker9571]

I am American and I love him. Great comedian.

[@jabekajabeka3188]

[@kathimeci5179]

I'm American and I thoroughly enjoyed this bit on American English. Had me laughing out loud. If we can't laugh at ourselves, .... I won't ever see him live (unless I don't have to do business with ticketing companies), but I've enjoyed his Netflix specials and these clips on KZbin. Thanks to all who make Michael available without me feeling ripped off by ticketing companies!

A few of us Americans have knowledge of the outside world. Michael McIntyre, Pub Landlord, Graham Norton, (Monty Python, of course). We love the humor and can take the quips about us, which are largely true.
