“Bees don’t die when they lose their stingers, that’s wasps.” Whoever posted that comment, Seth, they sit on a throne of lies. Truly, there is nothing more despicable than a dishonest jackal.
Drones don't raise new queens, workers do. Queens can fly. That Jackal doesn't know their bees. They wouldn't know bees if they saw an ocean of them. A Bee Sea.
I have to call out the Jackal with the "bee facts" having grown up with bee hives. The photo was a honeybee, NOT a wasp, for one. (A lot of people call hornets and wasps "bees" incorrectly, so that's no surprise.) Secondly, when a bee stings you, its stinger is pulled out as it flees, leaving the poison sack attached to continue pumping the painful venom into the victim. They do die afterwards. It's the wasps and hornets that do not lose their stingers which means they can sting multiple times and are more dangerous. Honeybees will only sting when threatened; yellowjacket wasps (usually confused by people with bees) are the little angry insect assholes that will attack you and sting repeatedly just for any perceived threat. Sort of like Jackals.
Take that back, sir, immediately! The majestic wasp is nothing like a jackal. Even jackals aren't like jackals, because both wasps and jackals get rid of a lot of stuff (other dead animals and stuff), while we Jackals might have tried to get rid of Seth's mistakes in the past, but for a while now we've added more than our fair share to the pile.
I've been a beekeeper for well over a decade, and I agree with what you say. The only minor quibble is I have is that honey bees will also sting if they believe _their colony_ is threatened, which is why it's wise to be wary about approaching bee hives too closely. Another point worth mentioning is that, as you say, the contracting venom gland is usually left behind with the attached stinger when the bee is swatted away or flies away, and it's best to remove this and the stinger as fast as possible to limit the dose of venom injected. Usually, this can be done by simply scraping it off with a fingernail.
@@allanmason3201 Please correct me (alcohol, plenty & often) but I got the impression that in the original bee-off sketch, the queen is the one stinging the bee-man. I always thought the queen is incapable of stinging as her role is one of egg factory. Cheers.

So glad I’m not the only one who shows these to people and pauses to explain why something is a brilliant callback or the context of the deep references
I love that there are jokes on the main show that are so many layers deep that you sound genuinely unhinged if you try to explain them. "Why did Wally just say 'Cicada, Cicada'?" "Oh, that's the name of Seth's Broadway play about a theater-loving cicada." "He has a play about a cicada?" "Well it all started because of the Cigarette-Smoking Cockroach." "The what?!"
I just have to say that I genuinely love the community that Corrections has fostered. I feel like we're in on all the inside jokes and have fun with each other. I love being a part of it and absolutely adore Corrections. Seth, this is genuinely such a perfect bit and I hope you never stop it!
50 Corrections!! Never forget how this got many of us through the pandemic, literally. Seth I don't know how we can thank you for carrying on. But I'm a loyal fan. All The Best xoxoxo
Seth, Stephen, Trevor, John O., and Sam were my saviors. I also relied on Brooklyn 99, Ricky Gervais, Nate Bargatze, Brian Regan, Jim Gaffigan, Sebastian Maniscalco, Tom Segura, SNL, The Jimmys, and Jordan Klepper. Laughing is way more fun than a hysterical meltdown.
I have never been a person that cares about merch. But, after watching every single Corrections, and understanding the nuance and intricacies of this endeavor, and how much effort you have put into getting us merch... I really want some effin merch now. I'm not kidding!
The character he showed isn't Count Orlok, it's Count Dracula. Count Orlok is the name of the character portrayed by Max Schreck in the 1922 film. In the 1979 film, the character portrayed by Klaus Kinski is named Count Dracula. The reason why he is named Count Orlok in the 1922 film is because that film was actually an unauthorized adaptation of Dracula, so names were changed to avoid lawsuits. The 1979 film isn't German expressionism either, but the 1922 film is. Love, a jackal who loves vampires
I believe the joke works just as well if it were the film or the character, as the pun about chews and the image is of someone from the film. I don’t get what the problem is.
Can you imagine if this was actually only the 49th Corrections, and Seth just landed the ultimate Jackaling of every Jackal celebrating in the comments? I'm almost upset he didn't try it last week...
Correction: The vampyre on the bag of Nosfera-Chews is not from the original Nosferatu from 1922 by F.W. Murnau. The one in the picture is from the remake from 1979, Nosferatu the Vampyre or Nosferatu: Phantom of the Night, by Werner Herzog and played by Klaus Kinski. The name of the vampire in that version was not Count Orlok but Count Dracula.
Also: The previous Jackal merely made the Nosfera-Chew joke, he didn't tell anyone from Late Night to put Klaus Kinskis face on a prop. That one is on Late Night and the jackal goes free. Case closed.
The Big Bird joke was in a long line of hilarious Scollins dark humor jokes, Seth's whole team of writers are by far the best of the nightly TV comedy shows! ⭐And Germaine's bee sketch and Seth's maniacal delivery was absolutely mythical and deserves an Emmy of it's own! 😂🏆
I’ve been here for every Correction from the first, and will absolutely buy the merch when it arrives. Hell, I’ll dip into my savings fund for my jackal tattoo. Thanks and congrats for the first 50, looking forward to the next 50! 🐾🐾
These are getting better every week, like fine wine. I genuinely laughed out loud multiple times and I rarely do that with late night shows. Great job. These jokes are wonderful.
I look forward to listening to Corrections - once on my way to work - as my treat for making it to Friday - once as I water my front plants on Saturday - and usually again as I do yard work on Sunday. I love Seth’s more slowed down style -than his rapid-fire Closer Looks (that I also listen to all week, as well). 🎉Cheers to 50!🎊
Remember back when Seth prompted the Jackals to think of our Best Of moments? Hopefully, something will come of that. I want some closure to that request. It feels fitting that we would get a Lego bricks reference in Number 50 when that's the joke that launched Corrections as we know it. A nice callback, unintentional as the reference really was.
Correction: Someone has gotten a concussion during Corrections. I was listening to it on the treadmill, and I slipped and fell and got a concussion. Was it my fault? Sure. Was it still during Corrections? Yes.
Seth reading that comment was hilarious. Although, his funniest joke was about the jackal merch being in the same discount bin as "Where in the World is Matt Lauer" beer cozies.
That was fire. But it could have been the "Where in the World is Matt Lauer" garage door opener. Then again, that joke requires people to have actually read what he did, and I wouldn't wish that on more people.
I look forward to the new weekly Corrections Segment: "Bee-Gate!" Covering the latest in the Jackal on Jackal violence over how wrong the previous corrections about bees were.
Honestly it was pretty bad... I think like only two of their corrections were actually correct. And it was the stupid obvious stuff like bees get incinerated by the Sun.
@@squirrel8185 technically they wouldn't even get incinerated. Incineration means to burn, and burning requires oxygen. The bees would have vaporized instead.
Sometimes I don't watch the show during the week, but I always watch Corrections so thank you for brightening my Fridays, Seth! Having to explain 50 episodes worth of Corrections lore to my parents is extremely entertaining.
That comment Seth read about Corrections needing to get political is so sad. I love A Closer Look for what it is, but this is just wholesome and fun. Let it be what it is.
I agree. I love to just listen to Seth being silly with his crew. I've heard that he changed the whole vibe at SNL when he was head writer, and it was a fun and happy place to be creative. I can sense all of that in his interactions with ButterMaker, et al. Warm family feelz. (The Z is for Andy / "Jake").
I agree it's kind of like complaining that the interviews he does aren't political enough. The interviews are only political when he's interviewing a political figure separate from a closer look. As this is. I love a closer look and I watch it religiously and I do like his political comedy but I like this being its own separate thing and I don't think it needs to change.
I was having a very frustrating day, until I saw Corrections had arrived! Exactly what I needed to lighten the mood. We all have our jackals to deal with, don't we? Please keep up the great work, Seth and crew!
Australian here, yes the Australian firefighter charity calendar is quite famous. I've met a number of people when travelling overseas who've mentioned their fondness of it when I tell them I'm Australian.
Correction of corrections: Queen honey bees *can* fly, but they only leave the hive to mate or during a swarm. Queen bees have stingers, but they only use them against other bees. Workers (sterile female honey bees) raise a new queen when a queen dies, not drones (male honey bees). Bees actually have been sent to space (and survived), but in a special astronaut hive (1984).
You left out a gruesome detail: a queen honey bee only uses her stinger to kill her sister-queens. This is normally done when they haven't yet emerged from their queen cells, so the queen repeatedly jabs her stinger through the wax and into the body of the trapped, unemerged queen. There are normally several queen cells in a hive (I've seen up to a dozen in our hives), and I have read some beekeepers who say that workers will fend off a rampaging queen from at least one closed queen cell as an insurance policy (mating is a very risky task, and not all queens which set out on a mating flight make it back). Oh, and the stinger of a queen is smooth, not barbed, which allows her to repeatedly stab her unfortunate sisters. Also, you're correct about workers raising a new queen when the old one dies (this is only possible if there are any unhatched eggs), but workers will also raise queens when they detect that the existing queen is failing and laying fewer eggs that she should. This is called supersedure in beekeeper terminology. New queens are also raised when the honey bee colony collectively decides that conditions are right for swarming, the old queen eventually flying out with the swarm, and the unemerged new queens being left behind in the old colony.
When watching with close captions “light laughter” describes the crew's reaction to many of Seth’s jokes. I think the description “polite or nervous laughter” would better reflect the hostage situation vibe this bit strives for.
I have seen every episode of Corrections, some of them multiple times. I loved the knitting references, TMNT, EB White, Eminem, Ben Franklin's wife Deb, Tommy Jeff and Sally Hemings and her half-sister Martha, so many good ones.
I hope on the Thanksgiving episode Meth asks his mother about this. Nothing better than a French gag. Ages like fine wine which any Frenchie will point out to you.
*THANK YOU* Seth for 50 wonderful episodes - congratulations!!! - 🥳sorry for when some of us jackals get carried away with our critiques, (remember my fellow jackals, paws not claws!) we do love you, truly, really 🐾💙🐾 especially for doing this - creating this interaction, this community - really do *love* this bit, truly a highlight of my week - *thank you* 💖😘
Happy 50th!! I have unapologetically loved these since the first one, and I think one of the reasons is that, this is one of the few examples of encouraged crowd interaction in the media which actually celebrates the seeking of truth and knowledge. That is sorely needed in the current Orwellian Idiocracy in which we find ourselves. KEEP IT UP!!!!!
Of all episodes of every show across all platforms, this is the show I look forward to the most. Thank you Seth and team. And to the jackals as well I guess. Yin and Yang and all.
Looking back at Corrections: it took Seth a few tries to get the pronunciation of 'taoiseach' (Irish prime minister) correct early in the days of this series, but you know who still hasn't done us the same courtesy? The effing UK. Foreign Sec Liz Truss gave us some 'tea-sock' this week. 100 years and they have never bothered learning how to say it. So thanks Seth and co for this small but significant gesture.
It's unwise to expect Liz Truss to ever get _anything_ right. In a cabinet full of amoral, blinkered, privileged numpties, she stands out only as being one of the worst.
I got behind on Corrections and am catching up now, and I'm remembering why I used to wait with bated breath for these episodes. Life has been really hard lately and no matter what I'm going through these always make me feel a little better. I've been watching since the beginning and it's always been a comfort to me since it started. Thank you so much. You have no idea how much it means to me to have something fun and ongoing and community oriented that makes me feel like I'm a part of something, something that makes people laugh. This all means the world to me, especially when it gets dark here ❤️
There was a point at which Corrections was the most consistent part of my life (along with Cuomo's press briefings when they were going on, but ...). I was grateful for it then, and I'm grateful to have been along for the ride as it transformed into what it's become. Thanks for sharing this side of yourself with us, Seth, and for creating a space where such a great community could develop.
I am sorry that the past year has been so hectic for you - you’re certainly not alone . I mean, in your house you’re probably alone … I don’t know your life … did you remember to lock the back door? Oh God, did you remember ?! What was that noise?! Oh … oh it was nothing … just some bees … oh no!! Bees!!! But seriously - you’re among good company and you’ve got great taste in comedy . I hope the next couple of years prove more secure, with less worldwide pandemics and God willing, just the right amount of bees.
I feel like he knows about the false Bee Facts, and as a 50th Corrections gift to himself he’s trying to turn the jackals on each other. Well played, sir. Enjoy. Also #SaveTheBees
#correction never has it been said that big bird is a canary. In a 1981 episode of Mister Rogers Neighborhood When Big Bird visited the Neighborhood of Make-Believe on the show, he told the owl character that he was a golden condor, a fictional bird species. Later in the episode, the character King Friday XIII asks Big Bird if he’s related to the cassowary. Big Bird tells the king he’s more like a condor. Here we can see that big bird is not a canary but rather a fictional bird species related to a condor. ;)
At this point Seth has transitioned from not just being a Late Night host but also a RUclipsr 😁 Gotta start saying the Like and Subscribe on your outros 🤣 Congrats on 50!
@@maryroberts589 It's a mutual relationship, a lot of content creation requires feedback from your audience on what they want to see more/less of or changes to make, paths to go down.
I have to say, thank you for corrections Seth, I, like a lot of people, was dealing with a lot of depression and isolation through the pandemic and corrections just reminded me so much of me and my friends hanging out, laughing and making bad puns that it has been one of the few things that got me through all of this awfulness. I love your show and I love you (no hetero) and if I ever get to see you in person I will give you the biggest hug. Like, one of those hugs that's starts out friendly, but then lasts longer than you expected. Then you try to back out of it, but the other person won't let go. You think about calling for help, but they're twice your size and you don't want them to get upset. You start to wonder if you'll ever be free again, or is this how it all ends? They don't seem malicious, but this could be like Lenny with the rabbits. Finally after what feels like hours, you're free, and the other person is still smiling and acting like this was perfectly normal. You immediately vow to never let a Jackal that close to you again, and wonder why that wasn't already your policy to begin with.
I never thought I would be a Jackal but here we are: When a honeybee stings, it dies a gruesome death. The bee's stinger is structured in such a way that once it punctures human skin, the bee can't yank it out without self-amputating. Dems the facts! Love you and the writing staff so much! Kudos.
Happy 50 episodes! This show means so much to me Seth. I thank you, your crew and all the fellow Jackals that contribute to making this a fun and incredibly funny experience each week it’s on. Like the rest, I honestly don’t know how I would have made it through the pandemic without your nightly humor. I know it was scary for all of us, this Corrections community keeps the sanity just within reach. Thank you again!
Happy 50th! And I can't believe I'm letting myself get sucked into the Jackal Vortex, but... "Nosfera-chews" still works, because "Nosferatu" is a word for vampire that predates the movie featuring Count Orlock, who would himself be A nosferatu. (Someone may have already said that, since I just saw there are 1,489 comments, but just in case.) Also, the French pronunciation of Tin Tin sounds too much like the creature Han cut open to keep Luke warm.
Congrats on 50 Seth and writers. I like that the format is more intimate (lots fewer viewers than Closer Look). Pure jackals, lots of inside jokes, fun comment section.
Belgian jackal here. I have a few comments: - I have never watched an NFL game in my life, but I never missed an episode of corrections. So maybe that Pizza Hut sponsorship wasn't such a bad move after all. - You can pronounce "Tintin" however you want. It's only fair, you should see how french-speaking people pronounce "Mickey Mouse". - I don't remember ever seeing a sexy firemen calendar in Belgium, probably because our public services are properly funded.
I hadn't put the sexy firemen calendars into perspective like that, but it's painfully obvious in retrospect that even if they were a thing elsewhere, they wouldn't be fulfilling the same function
You mean the American calendars raise money for firefighting? In Canada, they raise money for something like kids who need help getting to play sports.
I will buy merch! Love corrections so much. I have not ever been a jackal, but these are some of the funniest bits on TV right now. Also Seth and the sea captain got me through most of shut down, so thank you!
@LibraryShortcake THANK YOU!!!! I've always felt nails on a chalk board when hearing "cozy". After living around the country, though, I HAVE noticed a certain line of demarcation on the cozy vs koozie argument... And don't get me started on the "huggie" people.
Correction: bees wouldn’t be able to get to the sun to be burnt, or even fly to outer space to suffocate. At altitudes higher than about 30,000 feet, the air becomes too thin for their wings to function well enough for flight (that’s according to computer simulation of bumblebees and NOT honey bees, by UC Berkeley scientists - there seems to be the typical lack of information about what kind of bees are involved in the plot so I’ll just go for the highest estimate). So they can never get close even to the stratosphere, let alone outer space.
how would they even be able to fly that high up? how many calories is that? 10g of honey woukd have about 42kcal if a bee weights 0.1g, and to move it 1m it takes 1/1000nds of a Newton, wouldn't the bee not be able to fly more than 420m up? when they go around on the ground they are constantly eating, but upwards? unless they can get to 11km/s basically instantly without burning up, how would they even get to 30,000 feet? Guess we'll need GMO algae bees to start our bee space program, probably throw in a few tardigrade genes for good measure and yeah, then it'll just take violating a couple laws of physics and then bees could get to the sun. it's not even that hard, it's not like what Seth said makes no sense whatsoever... it just takes a tiny little bit of imagination and suspension of disbelief on reality itself!
@Shakhter Siren' True - the research cited above (Dillon and Dudley 2014) only analyses aerodynamics, not metabolic rates. It can tell us that if you let off a bee in a high altitude it'll be able to fly up until about 9000m, but doesn't tell us how it gets there. I suppose they could get close to high altitudes close to the ground - for instance, by traversing up the Everest - before their final majestic jump. Or fake a passport, get on a plane, wait for the take-off, find an open window somewhere and sneak out. Or hitch a ride on the back of a particularly persistent acrophiliac kestrel. Or the GMO thing - although that way madness lies... In general, I think here I was trying to compensate for Jermaine's shoddy scholarship by giving the scenario the benefit of the doubt as much as I could. #notalljackals
If a guy shows up at your door with two turntables and a microphone, then that's Beck and don't let him in unless you want him to go crazy with the Cheez Whiz.
“Corrections” is one of my favorite things on the entirety of the internet, and I want to proselytize it so bad, but honestly at this point, there are so many reoccurring concepts that play like inside jokes that I can’t in good conscious recommend someone jump in now unless they’re willing to muddle through a few episodes until they catch up lol
At least concerning the European Honeybee, it absolutely dies when it stings. It is a barbed stinger that pumps poison into the target. But it causes the abdomen to tear apart to allow this mechanism to take place.
Would love to buy some Jackal Merch. Hope you guys kept in mind who your target audience is. At 50 Corrections episodes, you've earned our respect...and loyalty.
I want a Meth meyers t-shirt. (And it has to be spelled t-shirt and not something else. I don't want any problems getting into Denny's or Wafflehouse).
Congratulations on #50! Looking forward to the next 50. BTW, bees do die when they lose their stinger; wasps can sting you many times in a row without losing their stinger.
I know the show format is what it is for a reason, but this, THIS is where the love shines. This is the sort of magic that greats like Arsenio Hall and Johnny Carson put out- the comfortable, conversational style, the drink, the rhythm and pacing left to the host (as it should be). There's some great talent in Late Night TV, but Seth wears the crown, and rightfully so. It's easy for the discerning eye to spot a person who loves the art of comedy for its own sake. Seth, if you want to do some day drinking, come to North Yorkshire, England and do it properly with a couple American expats. We'll share the story of why, when, and how we got out.
Correction - jackals wouldn't be commending if we were absent of love. True jackals seek only to provide clarity and more information or correct an error. Those who bash Corrections are not jackals.
This comment needs more recognition! We jackals like Seth simply seek perfection. And we do so by pulling on the collective nerdy knowledge of everyone kind of like the internet. But a correction should never be insulting or belittling.
I like to see you using your pencil as an actual pencil. I appreciate the need to have something to busy your hands though. Congrats on 50 eps and can’t wait for the spec-jackular!
I just came through to proudly say I got a jacket custom made to say “A Jackal Jacket” for when the show came back with an audience in Oct. 2021 and I wore it to the show.

Correction: The vampyre on the bag of Nosfera-Chews is not from the original Nosferatu from 1922 by F.W. Murnau. The one in the picture is from the remake from 1979, Nosferatu the Vampyre or Nosferatu: Phantom of the Night, by Werner Herzog and played by Klaus Kinski. The name of the vampire in that version was not Count Orlok but Count Dracula.
Time for another Werner Herzog impression.
@@emjayay don’t you mean a bag of Werner’s Originals!
@@jonsuson3903 Werner's Conventionals
Beautiful Correction!
Also: The previous Jackal merely made the Nosfera-Chew joke, he didn't tell anyone from Late Night to put Klaus Kinskis face on a prop. That one is on Late Night and the jackal goes free.
Case closed.
Seth saying “see me next week” is genuinely such a comforting thing. 😌
The Big Bird joke was in a long line of hilarious Scollins dark humor jokes, Seth's whole team of writers are by far the best of the nightly TV comedy shows! ⭐And Germaine's bee sketch and Seth's maniacal delivery was absolutely mythical and deserves an Emmy of it's own! 😂🏆
I’ve been here for every Correction from the first, and will absolutely buy the merch when it arrives. Hell, I’ll dip into my savings fund for my jackal tattoo. Thanks and congrats for the first 50, looking forward to the next 50! 🐾🐾
Are you sure you want a jackal tattoo tho
@@lizrosabassoon If they are committed to all 50 episodes of Corrections, I’m going to assume they are absolutely committed to the jackal ink.
@@emiliabolsas to each their own I guess 👀
literaose tattos are a ridiculous waste of money and painful. I can't believe that people waste money on them!!!!!!!
Yep! I'll be getting some merch when it's here. Jackal ink might be considered too.
These are getting better every week, like fine wine. I genuinely laughed out loud multiple times and I rarely do that with late night shows. Great job. These jokes are wonderful.
The 'Khan Khan' bit got me 😂
@@saar144 fine ones do.
Correction: most wines don’t actually get better with age once bottled. At some point most wines will deteriorate and go bad.
@@saar144 They get better for MANY years before going bad. So the saying holds up. You corrected nothing.
Correction: they have aged into vinegar because Seth is getting bitter hahahaha
Omg I’m dying at the complaint about corrections because this is my favorite part of late night shows 😂😂 top tier humor for my high ass
That was so ridiculous that it made me laugh too!
The worst and weirdest part of the Tin Tin series was when he was cut open with a lightsaber to provide shelter from the cold on Hoth.
Thank you. I laughed so hard at this, and I needed that laugh.
I look forward to listening to Corrections - once on my way to work - as my treat for making it to Friday - once as I water my front plants on Saturday - and usually again as I do yard work on Sunday. I love Seth’s more slowed down style -than his rapid-fire Closer Looks (that I also listen to all week, as well). 🎉Cheers to 50!🎊
Remember back when Seth prompted the Jackals to think of our Best Of moments? Hopefully, something will come of that. I want some closure to that request.
It feels fitting that we would get a Lego bricks reference in Number 50 when that's the joke that launched Corrections as we know it. A nice callback, unintentional as the reference really was.
Ah yes, I remember that moment fondly... Seth getting us all excited that something might actually happen to highlight the time we've spent together!
I'm not so sure it was unintentional. Seth is a master of subtle throwbacks. And I feel sure he had no doubt some jackal would notice 🌞
@@S.Pociecha notice what?
Correction: Someone has gotten a concussion during Corrections. I was listening to it on the treadmill, and I slipped and fell and got a concussion. Was it my fault? Sure. Was it still during Corrections? Yes.
Some people will do anything to justify a correction! Hope you're okay. 🤕
@@chezmoi42 He did this after he heard Seth say it just to mess with him!
@@tridachia The perils of being a Jackal at heart!
I would say there will be more and more concussions cos Seth is going hard!
Corrections has just turned into a joke fest now lmao
Seth reading that comment was hilarious. Although, his funniest joke was about the jackal merch being in the same discount bin as "Where in the World is Matt Lauer" beer cozies.
That was fire. But it could have been the "Where in the World is Matt Lauer" garage door opener.
Then again, that joke requires people to have actually read what he did, and I wouldn't wish that on more people.
@@christineherrmann205 yea, I have no idea what he did, but I now surmise it must have involved beer & garages.(*edit:or cars?)
@@-xirx- He had a button in his office that allowed him to lock the door from his desk.

@@christineherrmann205 😂
I look forward to the new weekly Corrections Segment: "Bee-Gate!" Covering the latest in the Jackal on Jackal violence over how wrong the previous corrections about bees were.
Honestly it was pretty bad... I think like only two of their corrections were actually correct. And it was the stupid obvious stuff like bees get incinerated by the Sun.
@@squirrel8185 technically they wouldn't even get incinerated. Incineration means to burn, and burning requires oxygen. The bees would have vaporized instead.
@@dougallen9689 fair point. so they didn't even get that one right.
Sometimes I don't watch the show during the week, but I always watch Corrections so thank you for brightening my Fridays, Seth! Having to explain 50 episodes worth of Corrections lore to my parents is extremely entertaining.
I feel this!!
That comment Seth read about Corrections needing to get political is so sad. I love A Closer Look for what it is, but this is just wholesome and fun. Let it be what it is.
I agree. I love to just listen to Seth being silly with his crew. I've heard that he changed the whole vibe at SNL when he was head writer, and it was a fun and happy place to be creative. I can sense all of that in his interactions with ButterMaker, et al. Warm family feelz. (The Z is for Andy / "Jake").
I agree it's kind of like complaining that the interviews he does aren't political enough. The interviews are only political when he's interviewing a political figure separate from a closer look. As this is. I love a closer look and I watch it religiously and I do like his political comedy but I like this being its own separate thing and I don't think it needs to change.
What's wrong with that guy? Some of us are here for the quirky nonsense!
Love the nonsense! Love corrections!
Look at "Corrections" getting it's own graphics! Coming up in the world. Just continues to be amazing! Happy 50th!
They should have Scollins motion cap in a green suit with those motion caption sensors like they do in video games

I was having a very frustrating day, until I saw Corrections had arrived! Exactly what I needed to lighten the mood. We all have our jackals to deal with, don't we? Please keep up the great work, Seth and crew!

Correction of corrections: Queen honey bees *can* fly, but they only leave the hive to mate or during a swarm. Queen bees have stingers, but they only use them against other bees. Workers (sterile female honey bees) raise a new queen when a queen dies, not drones (male honey bees). Bees actually have been sent to space (and survived), but in a special astronaut hive (1984).
You left out a gruesome detail: a queen honey bee only uses her stinger to kill her sister-queens. This is normally done when they haven't yet emerged from their queen cells, so the queen repeatedly jabs her stinger through the wax and into the body of the trapped, unemerged queen. There are normally several queen cells in a hive (I've seen up to a dozen in our hives), and I have read some beekeepers who say that workers will fend off a rampaging queen from at least one closed queen cell as an insurance policy (mating is a very risky task, and not all queens which set out on a mating flight make it back). Oh, and the stinger of a queen is smooth, not barbed, which allows her to repeatedly stab her unfortunate sisters.
Also, you're correct about workers raising a new queen when the old one dies (this is only possible if there are any unhatched eggs), but workers will also raise queens when they detect that the existing queen is failing and laying fewer eggs that she should. This is called supersedure in beekeeper terminology. New queens are also raised when the honey bee colony collectively decides that conditions are right for swarming, the old queen eventually flying out with the swarm, and the unemerged new queens being left behind in the old colony.
Also bees die when they sting not wasps. He said it the other way around.
@@allanmason3201 Wow! Thank you for that detailed information. (Bee-tailed information?)
I can picture Seth every time "merch" is mentioned just with a chuckle and knowing there won't be any "merch", even as he calls for it. It's great.
Because NBC clearly hates money!
When watching with close captions “light laughter” describes the crew's reaction to many of Seth’s jokes. I think the description “polite or nervous laughter” would better reflect the hostage situation vibe this bit strives for.
⚔️🤣💣😜
That beer cozy joke killed them though! 😂
I think you meant to say "closed captions" - wink!
@@nickpuno 👌

Cheers y’all, lots of love to Seth and crew
Finally - a return to 20+ minutes!! Thank you thank you thank you!
Look forward to this every single week. Thank you, Seth! Congrats on 50 episodes!
Well, given that submarines are called boats you had it right the first time Seth. The Titanic spent far less time above the surface than below it.
Good one
Ouch!
Actually Titanic was the name of the movie
Ouch! True, but ouch!
😂
I have seen every episode of Corrections, some of them multiple times. I loved the knitting references, TMNT, EB White, Eminem, Ben Franklin's wife Deb, Tommy Jeff and Sally Hemings and her half-sister Martha, so many good ones.
What about the circada smoking?
I love that Seth actually learns from these week on week. We will see you next week Seth. We will.
The Khan joke will never get old for me. Absolutely love it as a huge Star Trek fan!
yeah I saw it coming and enjoyed it all the more for it 😂
I hope on the Thanksgiving episode Meth asks his mother about this. Nothing better than a French gag. Ages like fine wine which any Frenchie will point out to you.
@@rabbit251 Are we calling him Meth now or was that a Fat Finger Fumble? 🤔🤔
I just started watching TOS and met Khan for the first tiime, can't wait to get to the meme part in a few months 😅
I was ready to yell "Khaaaann!" but the second "Khan" blindsided me.
What Seth says: “We don’t get a lot of fan art.”
What jackals hear: “Please send us more fan art.”
But where do we send it?
Seth messed up the first fan art. its WABE- alline and rhymes with Mabelline
I feel like Seth is just asking to get freebies.
LOL!!! Right!!🤣🤣
A lot better joke would have been, "What jackals hear: "Wally doesn't get enough fan art""

@@hoozle With Meth Myers at the top.
OMG ! Dying " Paws not Claws " HAHAHHAHAHAH
Paws not claws is the cutest slogan
"Paws, not claws" - I love it!
Happy 50th!! I have unapologetically loved these since the first one, and I think one of the reasons is that, this is one of the few examples of encouraged crowd interaction in the media which actually celebrates the seeking of truth and knowledge. That is sorely needed in the current Orwellian Idiocracy in which we find ourselves. KEEP IT UP!!!!!
Of all episodes of every show across all platforms, this is the show I look forward to the most. Thank you Seth and team. And to the jackals as well I guess. Yin and Yang and all.
Looking back at Corrections: it took Seth a few tries to get the pronunciation of 'taoiseach' (Irish prime minister) correct early in the days of this series, but you know who still hasn't done us the same courtesy? The effing UK. Foreign Sec Liz Truss gave us some 'tea-sock' this week. 100 years and they have never bothered learning how to say it. So thanks Seth and co for this small but significant gesture.
And I'm guessing Seth has already forgotten the correct pronunciation 😄
I don’t think Liz Truss’ mispronunciation should be seen as an example that no one in British politics can say it properly. ☹️
It's unwise to expect Liz Truss to ever get _anything_ right. In a cabinet full of amoral, blinkered, privileged numpties, she stands out only as being one of the worst.
I always parse it as “tao is each”.
Who came up with Irish spelling, anyway?
@@lawrencedoliveiro9104 who came up with the Irish spelling...? What 😂
Who can forget, that classic and disturbing moment when Luke Skywalker used a Tin-Tin carcass to survive a frozen night on Hoth...
Yes! My thought exactly. Nice.

Well done! And you thought they smelled bad on the outside.
I'm so glad I procrastinated long enough to scroll down the list of comments to get to this one. Solid gold.
I expected this joke and was unsettled when it didn't come. Thank you for restoring my equilibrium
13:22 made me laugh so hard.

“I don’t want to live in a world where they got out-Pizzaed.” 😂 🍕

I got behind on Corrections and am catching up now, and I'm remembering why I used to wait with bated breath for these episodes. Life has been really hard lately and no matter what I'm going through these always make me feel a little better. I've been watching since the beginning and it's always been a comfort to me since it started. Thank you so much. You have no idea how much it means to me to have something fun and ongoing and community oriented that makes me feel like I'm a part of something, something that makes people laugh. This all means the world to me, especially when it gets dark here ❤️
I really enjoy CORRECTIONS. Its laid-back and lighthearted nature is a refreshing change from the news, which is so darn depressing these days.
These “days”? Year after year after….
Corrections is by far, the funniest thing I watch all week. Seth, you are a genius and your delivery busts me up every time.
The Jackal merch is gonna sell - and it will be primarily international sales too.. We are loving it all around the world! Love from Melbs
There was a point at which Corrections was the most consistent part of my life (along with Cuomo's press briefings when they were going on, but ...). I was grateful for it then, and I'm grateful to have been along for the ride as it transformed into what it's become. Thanks for sharing this side of yourself with us, Seth, and for creating a space where such a great community could develop.
I am sorry that the past year has been so hectic for you - you’re certainly not alone .
I mean, in your house you’re probably alone … I don’t know your life … did you remember to lock the back door? Oh God, did you remember ?! What was that noise?! Oh … oh it was nothing … just some bees … oh no!! Bees!!!
But seriously - you’re among good company and you’ve got great taste in comedy . I hope the next couple of years prove more secure, with less worldwide pandemics and God willing, just the right amount of bees.
Well said friend 🐾 and well said Jay Israel
@@Nothing_Israel Thank you for the kind words! I hope the same for you, my friend.

I love watching corrections because I love facts and I always do learn something new every week
Omg my 8 year old son just pointed out to me that Corrections comes out Thursday night on RUclips. I'm late to the show
#correction never has it been said that big bird is a canary. In a 1981 episode of Mister Rogers Neighborhood When Big Bird visited the Neighborhood of Make-Believe on the show, he told the owl character that he was a golden condor, a fictional bird species.
Later in the episode, the character King Friday XIII asks Big Bird if he’s related to the cassowary. Big Bird tells the king he’s more like a condor. Here we can see that big bird is not a canary but rather a fictional bird species related to a condor. ;)
For a limited time: Golden Arches Condor McNuggets - try them with our secret Snuffy sauce!
Big Bird's species is one of those things I have always wondered, but never thought to ask.
Top tier Jackal research.
Is this the condor as mentioned in the theme song for “The mysterious cities of Gold”?
Still tastes like chicken
Seth seems to be more energetic in this episode. Must be the milestone.
Must be the drink, or maybe it's wabelline
At this point Seth has transitioned from not just being a Late Night host but also a RUclipsr 😁

I think Seth's crew laughing in corrections should be a standard laugh track in Hollywood from now on.
I have to say, thank you for corrections Seth, I, like a lot of people, was dealing with a lot of depression and isolation through the pandemic and corrections just reminded me so much of me and my friends hanging out, laughing and making bad puns that it has been one of the few things that got me through all of this awfulness. I love your show and I love you (no hetero) and if I ever get to see you in person I will give you the biggest hug. Like, one of those hugs that's starts out friendly, but then lasts longer than you expected. Then you try to back out of it, but the other person won't let go. You think about calling for help, but they're twice your size and you don't want them to get upset. You start to wonder if you'll ever be free again, or is this how it all ends? They don't seem malicious, but this could be like Lenny with the rabbits. Finally after what feels like hours, you're free, and the other person is still smiling and acting like this was perfectly normal. You immediately vow to never let a Jackal that close to you again, and wonder why that wasn't already your policy to begin with.
I’m soooooo excited for next week’s extravaganza! Have fun in rehearsals!!
I never thought I would be a Jackal but here we are:
When a honeybee stings, it dies a gruesome death. The bee's stinger is structured in such a way that once it punctures human skin, the bee can't yank it out without self-amputating.
Dems the facts!
Love you and the writing staff so much! Kudos.
IT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING WHEN THEY SAID THIS! Like... it basically rips open their ass, dang it!

I know it was scary for all of us, this Corrections community keeps the sanity just within reach. Thank you again!
I'm not eloquent or elegant.
Thanks for the laughs and making me smile when I didn't think it was possible. You and your team are good people
The way I remember that it’s “on purpose” and “by accident” is by thinking how wrong “by purpose” sounds.
it sounds great!
Ooh good one. I'll remember that
Accidentally (and probably purposefully)
I hope that trick helps other people cuz "on accident" is rather jarring to my ears.

@@lstapes7 Ew, David. No, David.
Happy 50th! And I can't believe I'm letting myself get sucked into the Jackal Vortex, but...
"Nosfera-chews" still works, because "Nosferatu" is a word for vampire that predates the movie featuring Count Orlock, who would himself be A nosferatu. (Someone may have already said that, since I just saw there are 1,489 comments, but just in case.)
Also, the French pronunciation of Tin Tin sounds too much like the creature Han cut open to keep Luke warm.
But maybe it works because it's also a Kinski/Herzog movie like Fitzcaraldo and because life is short? 🤷♂️
Lukewarm, if you will.
@@EverywhereAndyMorrison touché

Congrats on 50 Seth and writers.
I like that the format is more intimate (lots fewer viewers than Closer Look). Pure jackals, lots of inside jokes, fun comment section.
The Bees was the greatest bit ever, more please.
You gotta be careful what you say when you’re drinking - say something to the wrong person, and you could start an insurrection. A lesson for us all.
Excellent observation!
Brilliant - this comment can't possibly ever get enough likes!!!
Belgian jackal here. I have a few comments:
- I have never watched an NFL game in my life, but I never missed an episode of corrections. So maybe that Pizza Hut sponsorship wasn't such a bad move after all.
- You can pronounce "Tintin" however you want. It's only fair, you should see how french-speaking people pronounce "Mickey Mouse".
- I don't remember ever seeing a sexy firemen calendar in Belgium, probably because our public services are properly funded.
You've never been to the sexy calendars section then
I hadn't put the sexy firemen calendars into perspective like that, but it's painfully obvious in retrospect that even if they were a thing elsewhere, they wouldn't be fulfilling the same function
We have the sexy firemen calendars here in Spain, and it's all so a properly funded public service.
You mean the American calendars raise money for firefighting? In Canada, they raise money for something like kids who need help getting to play sports.
@Antoine FD
You: Properly funded.
America: Touche'.
I will buy merch! Love corrections so much. I have not ever been a jackal, but these are some of the funniest bits on TV right now. Also Seth and the sea captain got me through most of shut down, so thank you!
Corrections correction: it's a beer koozie not a beer cozy. It is designed to keep the beverage cold, not to make it comfortable.
@LibraryShortcake THANK YOU!!!! I've always felt nails on a chalk board when hearing "cozy". After living around the country, though, I HAVE noticed a certain line of demarcation on the cozy vs koozie argument... And don't get me started on the "huggie" people.
It's cozy (or cosy) as in a tea cozy, the fabric or woven coverings that were used on ceramic tea pots.
Yup! A tea cozy keeps tea warm. A beer koozie keeps beverages cool. Complete opposite function.
@@kira3835 That's a popular misconception. Koozie is the brand name of the eponymous drink cooler, invented in 1979.
Correction: bees wouldn’t be able to get to the sun to be burnt, or even fly to outer space to suffocate. At altitudes higher than about 30,000 feet, the air becomes too thin for their wings to function well enough for flight (that’s according to computer simulation of bumblebees and NOT honey bees, by UC Berkeley scientists - there seems to be the typical lack of information about what kind of bees are involved in the plot so I’ll just go for the highest estimate). So they can never get close even to the stratosphere, let alone outer space.
I believe in them
how would they even be able to fly that high up? how many calories is that?
10g of honey woukd have about 42kcal
if a bee weights 0.1g, and to move it 1m it takes 1/1000nds of a Newton, wouldn't the bee not be able to fly more than 420m up?
when they go around on the ground they are constantly eating, but upwards? unless they can get to 11km/s basically instantly without burning up, how would they even get to 30,000 feet?
Guess we'll need GMO algae bees to start our bee space program, probably throw in a few tardigrade genes for good measure and yeah, then it'll just take violating a couple laws of physics and then bees could get to the sun.
it's not even that hard, it's not like what Seth said makes no sense whatsoever... it just takes a tiny little bit of imagination and suspension of disbelief on reality itself!
@Shakhter Siren' True - the research cited above (Dillon and Dudley 2014) only analyses aerodynamics, not metabolic rates. It can tell us that if you let off a bee in a high altitude it'll be able to fly up until about 9000m, but doesn't tell us how it gets there.
I suppose they could get close to high altitudes close to the ground - for instance, by traversing up the Everest - before their final majestic jump. Or fake a passport, get on a plane, wait for the take-off, find an open window somewhere and sneak out. Or hitch a ride on the back of a particularly persistent acrophiliac kestrel. Or the GMO thing - although that way madness lies...
In general, I think here I was trying to compensate for Jermaine's shoddy scholarship by giving the scenario the benefit of the doubt as much as I could. #notalljackals
This is such exceptional jackaling, I can't even. My Monty Python unladen swallow comment seems feeble minded now.

I've officially seen all 50 Corrections now, and I can say Best Case Worst Case is almost as good as Cicada, Cicada!
“Corrections” is one of my favorite things on the entirety of the internet, and I want to proselytize it so bad, but honestly at this point, there are so many reoccurring concepts that play like inside jokes that I can’t in good conscious recommend someone jump in now unless they’re willing to muddle through a few episodes until they catch up lol
At least concerning the European Honeybee, it absolutely dies when it stings. It is a barbed stinger that pumps poison into the target. But it causes the abdomen to tear apart to allow this mechanism to take place.
Also queen bees do fly that's how they go mate elsewhere and also swarm to new location.
Also all insects that bite or sting me die
@@andrewlopucki3795 Heh, nice.
But only when injected into something with a tough hide, like mammals.
In humans. When it comes to smaller targets they don't rip out their abdomen and stab away repeatedly.
Would love to buy some Jackal Merch. Hope you guys kept in mind who your target audience is. At 50 Corrections episodes, you've earned our respect...and loyalty.
I need a jackal mug. Also, I wanted to take this opportunity to wish Seth congratulations on his new show.

Thank you Seth and team for corrections...really enjoy this segment and really look forward to this every week. Lots of Love from India! #corrections
I know the show format is what it is for a reason, but this, THIS is where the love shines. This is the sort of magic that greats like Arsenio Hall and Johnny Carson put out- the comfortable, conversational style, the drink, the rhythm and pacing left to the host (as it should be). There's some great talent in Late Night TV, but Seth wears the crown, and rightfully so. It's easy for the discerning eye to spot a person who loves the art of comedy for its own sake.
Seth, if you want to do some day drinking, come to North Yorkshire, England and do it properly with a couple American expats. We'll share the story of why, when, and how we got out.
Correction - jackals wouldn't be commending if we were absent of love. True jackals seek only to provide clarity and more information or correct an error. Those who bash Corrections are not jackals.
This comment needs more recognition! We jackals like Seth simply seek perfection. And we do so by pulling on the collective nerdy knowledge of everyone kind of like the internet. But a correction should never be insulting or belittling.

I like to see you using your pencil as an actual pencil. I appreciate the need to have something to busy your hands though. Congrats on 50 eps and can’t wait for the spec-jackular!
I love Corrections !!!
It could last hours I would watch it!
We need a Corrections TV 24/7 🤣🤣🤣
I just came through to proudly say I got a jacket custom made to say “A Jackal Jacket” for when the show came back with an audience in Oct. 2021 and I wore it to the show. I say this for two reasons, 1. Jackal merch, like comments, can be custom made. And 2. If/when jackal merch is available, y’all gotta represent 😝
Love the Jackal Jacket
Man I wish I had seen that
Why was I the only one to laugh when Seth was talking about the firefighter calender and said "We'll post a POLE!"
I was right there with you.
