Under A Rock with Tig Notaro: Tony Shalhoub

[@cierrablue]

Probably the most endearing episode to date.

[@JacksonStricksOn]

I agree! I just love it!!!

[@nadjie13]

cierrablue it was too short!

[@CaptAmberKirky]

I came here to say something very similar. Their energy together was beautiful. I really hope they become friends lol.

[@jakoblangenberg]

He is such a humble sweetheart. I just wanna hug him!

[@YTSharkspeare]

Wasn't it? I smiled the whole way through.

[@TheRandomView]

Wow, he's got such a delightful soul.

[@bernlin2000]

He was so sweet and kind toward Tig: already loved him from Monk, but this was just the next level :-)

[@john_avernia]

He is :)

[@telectronix1368]

Well he may be an alien.

[@carolynworthington8996]

I’ve always loved him, ever since Wings.

[@infinitelovelightenergy8586]

LOVE HIM! ♥️♾💜

[@MaryssolIbarra]

He’s the sweetest person in the universe. I adore him even more.

[@MkeKen67]

My two favorite movie roles he did were in Barton Fink and Galaxy Quest.

[@jt1929]

@@MkeKen67 I always think of the cab driver in Quick Change🤣

[@SapienSafari]

NGL sometimes he catches me off a bit too.

[@kristianharper5609]

They should work together, they make a pretty good duo.

[@affanyfan]

Kristian Harper I agree! Never seen Tig take to someone like that other than maybe Colbert.

[@WhoooRyou]

YES!!!

[@RomanDiaries]

They have very strong buddy chemistry.

[@KyAl2]

I think they should do a Monk Christmas Special next year and she should be a guest star.

[@storyofagirl4155]

this is the best idea ever!!

[@danieljuncos244]

The thing about this show is that it’s hilarious, but at the same time anticlimactic because even after she guesses who they are, she still has no idea who they are.

[@petermcnallt12pm]

The most unfunny thing I've ever seen...she is awful!

[@Nueztoy]

But is refreshing, since there are no posses, the guest fells more like a person who’s job just happens to be entertainer.. Tig is impressed then for the accomplishments, not their fame. I like this, specially in a world where people appears to be measured by the amount of followers, not their talent or persona.

[@MsSmolderhotter]

@@petermcnallt12pm no she is not, she is an endearing ball of sunshine

[@Ryrynz2000]

No idea is a stretch, Tig knows Wings and Monk, you would have to have been living "under a rock" to not know of either of those shows if youre over 30 srsly.

[@karacordry7553]

Tony Shaloub is a National Treasure and the fact that he was willing to go on this show just reinforces how freaking awesome he is!!! Why can't all men be him??? ugh...

[@jessicaaudate]

Yes!

[@Writeher]

Tigs mitey cool too😎

[@dasshorts7800]

Cause he’d be just another dude. Yawn

[@weasley2o13]

Why wouldn't he agree to do it? It's fun.

[@jennacryan]

wish they didn't edit these down so much, would've loved to see 20min of these 2

[@R0fanJessie]

Jenna Cryan yes!!

[@briteboy6131]

A whole podcast episode with these two would be awesome!

[@cmantooth9191]

yeah. editing is rough on these.

[@lordcrispen]

Alexa, play the whole clip!

[@groofay]

The awkwardness would have been golden.

[@DarkSali]

I don't know him but he seems so genuine, funny and just... heartwarming? I would love to hang out with him and just listen what he has to say. He seriously just spreads good vibes. Instantly like him

[@aliceqin4158]

Anderl are you... Tig?

[@serrasedai]

He's very good in Mrs. Maisel, esp s2 where he has a deeper role

[@myrpok]

How has anyone not seen something Tony Shaloub has been in. He's been in so much.

[@sthompson2839]

My favorite role he’s from is Monk, and the movie Big Night.

[@robsomner476]

After a tough day, I needed that 8 minutes of smiling.

[@ADayInTheLifeOfTyler]

I will never stop loving this man♥️ it’s a gift.. and a curse

👍

[@SapienSafari]

Trudy would agree.

[@OkapiJim]

I see what you did there. Well played.

[@princesseai]

Couldnt have said it better!!

[@outthasky]

This is the episode where the show earns its name.

[@nerd_in_norway]

Lmao So true! How the heck do you work in US showbiz and not recognize Tony Shalhoub!? I love Tig but I almost wanted to punch her for not knowing him, although at least she recognized his name in the end.

[@outthasky]

gjolb your reply brought me to another viewing. I remain unprovoked to violence by her apparent prosopagnosia.

[@gkaranikolos]

How can anyone not recognise Monk?!

[@karenfromfinasse8430]

Very easily. If you've been.... wait for it.... living "under a rock".

[@rebeccagutierrez1960]

Some people are just so likable and Tony Shalhoub is one of them.

[@linengray]

This show is so sweet and so humbling for actors. When you get a humble actor it is even better.

[@HotsRus]

He was also in Men in Black - played the alien whose head blew up and then grew back.

[@youtubed3951]

jeebs

[@cierrablue]

He was also in a show called Stark Raving Mad with Neil Patrick Harris. It was canceled early, to my dismay. I thought it was hilarious.

[@dupersuper1938]

...and Galaxy Quest and The Man Who Wasn`t There...

[@kimmmmeee]

@@cierrablue I had forgotten about that show. It was funny.

[@susannarobinson4278]

I've met him several times. A lovely person, a gentleman, charming and sweet.

[@lissymorgan6950]

Where you met him? I'm from Germany and I love Mr. MONK.

[@evam4182]

He’s my grandmas first cousin! I haven’t met him but I know a few of his sisters and if he’s anything like them he’s got to be a massive sweetheart. They tell me he’s a lot like Adrian Monk and he’s got some OCD tendencies when it comes to loading his dishwasher lol

[@buttonsf3293]

I just love him to pieces! He speaks so softly and appears so kind and unassuming.

[@ihabkahnung]

lets be honest, the monk clue was nicely delivered...

[@silverfox389]

[@kristenmyers1087]

No way Adrian Monk would have taken a drink from someone else tea!!!

[@polferiferus1938]

I wonder if the actor is more conscious of opportunities to prove “see, I’m not Monk. Monk is a character I, actor Tony Shalloub, play”. True story: the US coast guard got multiple calls to rescue the crew of the SS Minow during the run of Gilligan’s Island. And fans of Downton Abbey who tour the actual estate where it was filmed complain _regularly_ that the estate owners and staff are “changing history” when disappointed to see that things in the show are different from the genuine article.

[@tigerr830]

Nor would anyone else after 2020

[@arcanewanderness5458]

Because of that - he swap cups 😁😁😁

[@karentucker2161]

Lol 😆 therapist was really good than!

[@weasley2o13]

He actually touched a lot of things that were touched by Natalie first and he didn't give a shit. He was in love with her though so maybe it doesn't really count.

He is not underrated in any way and is very comfortable with his level of success. He has the accolades to prove how successful of an actor he is. In fact, as a character actor he has stated he prefers supporting roles to lead ones. He's a big deal, not just in a Brad Pitt kind of way
