Veep S06E09 - Jonah and Uncle Jeff Hospital Scene

[@romanoctavius1477]

The fact that Uncle Jeff and Roger Furlong never had a scene together where they both roasted Jonah is a shame.

[@skiballs68]

Agreed!!

[@BigNerd099]

That scene alone would be so good it could make entire series of Lost look like an unbearable hour of Jimmy Kimmel doing standup

[@glawrk2861]

At least we'll always have the finale with him, Selina, and Amy making Jonah eat shit together.

[@daveopel5696]

The better question who'd have the better insult.

[@princeofhavoc]

I’m not sure any of the actors could keep their composure long enough for the back and forth between those two.

[@BriGuyIL1980]

Uncle Jeff's cackling when Jonah gets dumped is gold.

[@antred11]

Nah, that was so extremely , painfully and obviously over-acted.

[@THOMASINTHE1980S]

⁠@@antred11He must be part Hyena.

[@jameslionetti4643]

That's his inner Mad Hatter coming out from Uncle Jeff.

[@simonjenkin]

the first thing he says is "wishes belong at the bottom of wells with unwanted girl children" and somehow everything he says aftterwords gets *worse*

[@ciscolouder9019]

god I need to make this guy's laugh my ringtone it's so infectious

[@tess5092]

Every time I hear it I just lose it 😂😂

[@glawrk2861]

I will need that ringtone when you find it

[@superstarultra28]

Richard said the exact same thing.

[@CooperDraytonVisions]

To this day, I'm convinced Mary Holland was blindsided by Peter MacNicol's insults. I refuse to believe her reactions were just good acting.

[@Enigmanic]

Had her gagged

[@scottw9318]

I was binge-watching Veep in the hospital - got to this scene and I swear I ripped two stitches laughing at this

[@skygriffin1317]

The writing in this show is amazing 👏

[@JulioRodriguez-vm9rp]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@scottw6704]

Peter MacNicol's laugh has to be one of the most hilarious things I've ever heard. Or seen.

[@DSY646]

He comes back just to laugh at him! 😆😆

[@mahimahimindy]

This scene is pure art

[@garyfayman5976]

Epileptic Picasso painting gets me every time.

[@radamesmateo2998]

One of the best scenes in TV history

[@orion6372]

AMEN

[@cameroncreasy1150]

I saw this for the first time when I had Covid and I laughed so hard I blacked out, woke up and started laughing again, and blacked out two more times. It has been YEARS since something caught me so off guard.

[@manifestgtr]

LOL now *that’s* fucked up

[@grahamroy910]

“Listen up Ms. Tranz” 😂

[@whatwouldtarado213]

Peter MacNicol is a fucking genius. The Uncle Jeff character made me laugh harder than I ever have my whole life.

[@trentinrodriguez4620]

me too , so fucking funny 😂

[@aidanbobhog6303]

the "you cant talk to him like that" voice kills me every time

[@canaisyoung3601]

That sounds like Cartman from the early episodes of South Park, where Cartman was a squealing brat who wasn't taken all that seriously.

[@Enigmanic]

I like how Shawnee and Uncle Jeff bonded by the end over their mutual disdain for Jonah. Basically went from insulting her to offering to walk her out

[@TheNickNuttall]

It’s too good!

[@blownaway12345]

Without exaggeration. One of the funniest things I have ever seen. Thank you HBO

[@veermudambi5795]

I love seeing Jonah being shredded like this. Never get tired of seeing this. Plus did anyone catch when Jeff called her “Ms. Trans”

[@koreytobias5255]

its the best part!

[@lucykwiatek5159]

I take offense; I would never marry Jonah Ryan.

[@BrockMarz69]

after much deliberation, i think this is my favorite comedy scene ever. so many atom bomb-level insults, and all delivered perfectly. the mangled abortion coat hanger line actually makes me nauseous from laughter

[@manifestgtr]

2:56 Uncle Jeff’s criminally insane coyote noises in the background lol

[@ashleychase9759]

UNCLE JEFF IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!

[@theinfiniteride]

Jonah yelling “Uncle Jeff, come on!” makes me lose it every time

[@pickawallbootz-]

Me too 😂😂😂😂😂

[@benstout7015]

This show had some amazing scenes, but this one is my favorite.

[@pschroeter1]

"He like owns all these old people." I think Jonah has said that a couple times.

[@pschroeter1]

One day I hope to live long enough to have heard something funny enough to make me laugh like Uncle Jeff. You can just box me up and plant me afterwards.

[@sirg-had8821]

Dude, same.

[@orion6372]

You just need the right weed

[@LoriFoster]

Uncle Jeff needed his own episode!

[@RobRomeo73]

I love that they make friends by the end of the scene 😂😂

[@ShinRyojin]

Uncle Jeff and his Cryptkeeper laugh!😂😂😂😂

[@damnthisuser]

His laugh is gut splitting!

[@skygriffin1317]

This scene made an Australian Parliament member choke on sushi and knock himself out

[@joshratliff5077]

No, that was the scene when Dan finds out Jonah was faking having cancer.

[@HotSneks]

Aside from the outbursts of the hyena-like laughing, uncle Jeff snickering uncontrollably while Jonah goes off on his fiancé (or soon to be ex) for breaking up with him on the spot is what gets me too

[@xMxRxPx]

This is now my official favorite scene in ANYTHING! This guy had me ugly gag-laughing! LMAO!!!!!

[@turbobrony1472]

Uncle Jeff's laugh is hilarious!

[@RenaissanceM]

Ohhhhhhhhhh I’m so glad I came in person and didn’t call!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@VerticalSh0ck]

"Shat da fack up, you epileptic Picasso painting!" LMAO!

[@pickawallbootz-]

I just hollered while reading this!! 😂

[@itsacoolworld]

“Hello, Joni.” “Oh, fuck. Hello, uncle Jeff”

[@allamaraine8066]

I have to come back and watch this every now and then. I don’t know that anything makes me laugh as hard as Iannucci’s stuff. This is some foul, venomous, mean-spirited shit and it is absolutely hilarious.

[@Kal_elctibles]

When uncle Jeff mimics her voice, I lose it. She clearly was breaking character and laughing some hard they had to quick cut off of her lol must have been a blast of a scene for everyone involved

[@oliviadudas108]

Bro uncle Jeff’s laugh always gets me 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@sirg-had8821]

I just cracked a rib laughing at this. Holy shit... my cheeks hurt and I'm trying to catch my breath... This is fucking majestic.

[@Darkstar263]

I love how she waited until Jonah had actually gone through with having the circumcision before dumping him 😂

[@sirenfan97]

Hard to believe that’s the same guy who played Janosz from Ghostbusters 2

[@Mic-Mak]

You never watched Ally McBeal? He was the most badass character in it, and my favorite character.

[@scottw6704]

THAT'S what you remember him from? Ouch.

[@daveopel5696]

Uncle Jeff is right. Some news is better in person, Because he's reaction was priceless.

[@stevenbluestone2014]

I approve of your spelling. I wonder if that's how the word "his" came to be.

[@gonzaleo]

"Listen up Ms. Trans..."

[@armwriting]

0:50 just about sums up how I want to scream at everyone today

[@jwelch5742]

In 2016, Peter MacNicol was nominated for the HBO series Veep: Season 5. His nomination was rescinded after it was determined that MacNicol had appeared in five out of ten episodes in the fifth season of Veep, violating the TV Academy's rule that to be ruled eligible for a guest acting category, a performer must have appeared in "less than 50 percent" of a season's episodes. Peter Scolari has great acting on Girls: Season 5 than Peter MacNicol on Veep: Season 5.

[@THOMASINTHE1980S]

Uncle Jeff must be part Hyena.

The uncle actor was he in Ally mcbeal?

[@zerjiozerjio]

Famously. And played almost the opposite of Uncle Jeff - this shy, stuttering, eccentric lawyer.

[@surlyguvna]

I can't with Uncle Jess. He needs to be that awesome raw uncle to an MCU superhero. Just as he is!!!

[@ThunderFlarz]

Dear lord on my first watch of this scene I missed the doctor telling Jonah not to get an erection. I thought the lotion was naturally burning him at the end but I realised he is even dumber than that.

[@SapphireSolstice67]

0:45 is this a commonly known myth, throwing unwanted children into wells? I would like to know in relation to another piece of media that referenced it and I’m wondering if it’s well known. I thought the thing was children accidentally falling in and being trapped until they’re saved.

[@asher8754]

During the height of china’s one child policy it was common for young girls to be killed sometimes like that
