Ikr, so used to seeing the reserved, serious all business character in Ray Donovan, you would never imagine he could be so bright and social, this guy's one hell of a on screen actor
@@doncannon9835 I never heard of Ray donovan, perphaps Ill go watch it, To me all I see is a badass cybertooth from X men, Thats the one film that I seen him act in
Adam Moore i can’t believe they cancelled Ray Donovan like this. Complete bs. I hope they bring it back for a movie or something to end it right. I don’t get it. It’s Showtimes best show. Ridiculous
Mrs S It surely is addicting. My husband and I just binge watched all six seasons and now we’re caught up with the new one 😩 we’re going to have to wait every Sunday now. Enjoy!
Liev is unquestionably one of the finest actors for quite some time now! The way he portrayed Marty Baron in Spotlight was impeccable! And he was formidable as one of the Tuvia brothers in Defiance. I hope he keeps performing that way forever!
I got used to Liev being Ray Donovan so much, that this totally blew me away. Very funny in ways that I couldn't even imagine. Thank you to the Colbert show and crew for booking this guy. Made me happier in these days.
So true. Our collective consciousness has been hijacked by the stupid for so long that it’s nice to see intelligence played out in video. New respect for Liev Shreiber after this interview btw
I think he likes it like that. It gives him freedom of choice in his profession. If he wanted, he could have stepped in that Marvel train. He was a pretty good Sabertooth before the whole MCU started.
When Liev came out, he did not want to be there. Colbert is so quick-witted and values his guests' comfort so much, that it turned into a fun, personable interview.
Dokładnie tak, i mam tą zasadę, że nie opowiadam tyle o sobie nikomu, nie wiem, dlaczego Ty wiesz tak dużo i jak tego dokonales.. I to w takim czasie, naprawdę szybko...
Been watching from day 1, this was the best interview of all. Hilarious, had a bit of everything, and Colbert's wild and purposeful callback was just brilliant!
He needs to be back on and the interview time doubled. The problem with the late night programming is that interesting guests aren't allotted enough time for the audience to truly enjoy their presence.
The energy of this interview was interesting and kind of kept me unsure of where it would go or even how it WAS going for a few beats. Lol. I like when Stephen Colbert has guests that challenge his usual rhythm/veer in directions he doesn't see coming so can't fully maintain the conductor role lol. This was funny and dry and Liev was so aloof but intentionally so in a way that made it funny still. Stephen seemed amused.
@Red Wagon Repair Brainwashed people are so fucking hilarious go ahead and spread all the concpiracy theories after this i wont be replying I'll just be laughing my ass off at how low human beings can become when their government starts killing journalists who give them actual favts from the rest of the world at least the ones who are sheep who believe the their "state news" seriously go to hell haha
What great timing he has. One of the requisites of stage acting is being able to allow for the minor changes which will happen from one performance to the next. An actor makes a mistake and you have to not react, so you put in a bit of business to get over it. Or someone pauses to long or steps on a line, or gets distracted by something off stage. I haven't seen "Ray Donovan" by in everything I have seen him in he has great presence, timing and he doesn't try to upstage the other actors. A true pro.
I could watch Liev watching paint dry and be perfectly content. Binge watching Ray after missing it the 1st go round, (and in prep for the movie) I have fallen for not only Ray the character, but Liev, the real person. If my spouse only knew how many times I have paused an episode just to admire him.. He epitomizes the term 'tall, dark and handsome.' His true acting talent and intellect has me even more taken with him. I cannot think of one thing that I do not like about this man. He deserves every bit of his wealth and fame-and then some! I secretly call him my Little Wolverine - ha! Love you Liev!
Liev Schreiber: "Well, I didn't wanna say 'pretentious,' I was going to say 'the French genes.'" Stephen Colbert: "Yeah, yeah...'pretentious,' 'French,' it's a fine line." Me: Actually, it isn't all that fine; we refer to the line between French and pretentious as "the English Channel." ...I couldn't help myself. I'm actually quite fond of the English, that was just too good an opening to overlook.
@@victoriabutler6115 Did you miss the last bit, about it being a joke? To quote Jim Jefferies, "It's not something that I think; it's something that I think is funny. There's a big difference between what I think is funny and what I actually think." You're definitely entitled to your opinion, though, same as me, and you might actually be right. I'm probably not the best equipped person to judge the topic, really. If I truly were pretentious, I don't imagine I'd realize it. Cheers. =D
@you're arrested for first-degree clownery luv It's true. Germany seems to have made huge leaps forward since the '40s. I've never been, but I hear it's a wonderful place, full of kind, accepting and generally lovely human beings. =D
For those of us who have and do live in Boston and know the "Southie" culture know how spot on the main character's are on Ray Donovan. Liev is PERFECT as Ray Ray. Great actor.
Way to go Ray Ray .. U tha Man Bro .. Thanks for the awesome series .. I binged it three times .. It's gonna be a Classic... Lol .. Maybe you can come out with something similar.. oh yeah bro my bday is 10/04/65.. Peace ☮️✌️🕊️..
I didn't realize how much he narrates, like almost every worthwhile documentary in recent years lol it's actually quite impressive! 👍😂 (Google the list, if you want to know.)
It's amazing the contrast of seeing him relaxed, off the character, and the heavy troubled sociopath that Ray is. Also, I liked him in the Woody Allen movie.
Ray Donovan might be my favorite show of all time. It made u feel like part of the family. When somthing happened to any kne of em u felt it and wanted it to be fixed. Lol. It ended pretty wack. Cus it made u want more but ive read that there will be nomore ray donovan. My wife and i binge watched on showtime recently. All 7 seasons in less than a month. Lol. Great fuckin show. Bring it back!!!!!!!!!!
I was first exposed to Liev Schreiber with the movie Phantoms. Seriously, I knew he was going to be one of those great actors known for being a great actor without ever actually having to be a lead actor. Just damn great.
I did not expect Liev Schreiber to be so hysterically funny. Stephen brings out the best in people like that. As far as I'm aware, the Irish Colberts (and therefore Stephen's family) are descended from French Huguenots who fled to Ireland to escape persecution around the 1600s. The 't' is pronounced here!
He smiled more in this interview than in 6 seasons of Ray Donovan.
LOL 😂 that's the character though, but I feel ya
🙊😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂👍🏼
He kept forgetting his lines in season 6 that's why
Ray Donovan “Shore “
@will smith....ya Ray is pretty damn depressed a lot of the time isn’t he? And he hits the bottle pretty hard to compensate. Glad Ray went to therapy!
I still see Liev as Sabertooth. Even though I hated most of that movie, I loved him.
Agreed
Yeah 👍
Yyyyyup.
Yeah! He was the one in the ensemble in the Wolverine franchise who defined Wolverine!
His role alone was better than the entire dark phoenix movie. Worst one in the franchise imo.
Didn't think I'd enjoy that interview half as much as I did. Liev got some good presence about him.
It's so strange to see Liev Schreiber so cheerful. In "Ray Donovan" he smiles maybe once a season at the most.
Once a season? Maybe i missed those episodes 😂
Ikr, so used to seeing the reserved, serious all business character in Ray Donovan, you would never imagine he could be so bright and social, this guy's one hell of a on screen actor
A H i Know lol Ray Donovan would kill Liev
Duh cause he is A super villain fronting like an actor (He is Cybertooth)
He a beast
@@doncannon9835
I never heard of Ray donovan, perphaps Ill go watch it, To me all I see is a badass cybertooth from X men, Thats the one film that I seen him act in
Watching again,,,,remains one of the best shows ever created 🇮🇪
"Does anybody know my purpose?"
I lost it right there.....
It's a long shot .. thought i might get it
That would have been a great ha made you say it
I think he passes butter.
Cristian Villanueva his purpose is to be Ray Donovan
Adam Moore i can’t believe they cancelled Ray Donovan like this. Complete bs. I hope they bring it back for a movie or something to end it right. I don’t get it. It’s Showtimes best show. Ridiculous
Currently binge watching our way through all the seasons of Ray Donovan, Not my cup of tea at first but now I'm addicted
Mrs S It surely is addicting. My husband and I just binge watched all six seasons and now we’re caught up with the new one 😩 we’re going to have to wait every Sunday now. Enjoy!
I’m binge watching now too! Too bad I didn’t start until half way through Christmas break!
@@susie3461 we're caught up to season 7 now. It won't take you long
Mrs S right?!?? Same here, at first I thought meh, but then woooow it really gets you sucked into season after season

Liev is unquestionably one of the finest actors for quite some time now! The way he portrayed Marty Baron in Spotlight was impeccable! And he was formidable as one of the Tuvia brothers in Defiance. I hope he keeps performing that way forever!
This interview was so offhandedly hilarious. Stephen Colbert always gets the best out of his guests.
He is very personable. A natural imo
It's Colbert not Colbert!
The part "does anyone know my purpose" got me hollering 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 as I found the irony in it since I've been asking that same question lately...🤔🤔🤔
I got used to Liev being Ray Donovan so much, that this totally blew me away. Very funny in ways that I couldn't even imagine.
Thank you to the Colbert show and crew for booking this guy.
Made me happier in these days.
First time I saw him was in Clancy movie and I was totally mesmerized by him! He should be a huge STAR! And he's 6ft 3" tall ffs!
This might the best interview all year 😂😂😂 Ray Donovan is so 🔥🔥🔥🔥
2 intelligent people joking around intelligently. the world is still pretty ok.
So true. Our collective consciousness has been hijacked by the stupid for so long that it’s nice to see intelligence played out in video.
New respect for Liev Shreiber after this interview btw
i loved it! it had such natural flow and they were bouncing off of each other in the same wavelength.
It is my friend thank the gods
His t.v rating has tanked for a reason? Guess why?
Huh??? Does Liev have a little person in his pocket??
Liev Schreiber is the kind of actor who could be typecast as blockbuster leads, but chooses to stick to acting anyway
lmao
Lol remember when blockbusters had real actors?
He's a theater guy
He gets plenty of accolades, but he's still underrated.
New Message he’s always been looked over an it’s always disappointed me
I think he likes it like that. It gives him freedom of choice in his profession. If he wanted, he could have stepped in that Marvel train. He was a pretty good Sabertooth before the whole MCU started.

I just love this man and how amazing he is Ray Donovan!!! And so awesome good looking
Excellent interview!!! I could watch these two funny talented boys talk all night, and Liev is charming and tells a great story!
Simply lovely.
Best interview I've ever watched! Total surprise. Liev, you rock!
Love Ray Donovan! I binged on the whole series.
I truly enjoyed watching this witty banter and intelligent converse. Thank you for an enjoyable moment.
"I can't get past the paywall"
Noone can LOL
No one wants the WaPo badly enough to give yet more money to Lex Luth.. I mean Jeff Bezos.
good human
Liev's comic timing and sense of humour is amazing!
I fell for Liev many years ago in "The Sum of All Fears." It's delightful to watch "the boys" gently razzing one another -- good for the soul.
Been watching from day 1, this was the best interview of all. Hilarious, had a bit of everything, and Colbert's wild and purposeful callback was just brilliant!
“That raccoon was wild, with a purpose”
That shit completely sent me!
What a great interview! Class.
I hope Ray Donovan never dies. Ray Donovan, the only good thing going on in the world.
I feel like these two genuinely like each other and their conversations. These are my favorite types of interview
wow - that was an awesome interview, enjoyed every bit
Liev is a underrated great actor.
Me & my parents have watched every episode of Ray Donovan! We frickin love them all!
Did you watch the movie that came out this year?
He needs to be back on and the interview time doubled. The problem with the late night programming is that interesting guests aren't allotted enough time for the audience to truly enjoy their presence.
I'd rather have longer segments with great, iconic, engaging guests like him and skip the music segments every once in a while to do so.

Loved the series and the movie. He's a great actor!
one of the best interviews i've ever seen.
I've only ever seen Shreiber on Donovan so this was a real eye opener....what a cool guy....
He is a very likable guy. And Ray, is a great TV Show! He did a great job ! He also have a great sense of humor!
I just see him as Ray Donovan lol
he is beautiful
Me: He talks more in this interview than in 6 seasons of Ray Donovan.
RD: Yeah, Sure
scottish ‘sure’ is a different thing
He's a gentleman, always.
Liev doesn't get old. Look stunning as always!
Obsessed with Ray Donovan! 🔥⭐❤
He's sooo handsome

What a composed guy, so cool and funny in a downplayed way. Love the Ray Donovan show.
One of Stephen's best interviews ever. Schreiber coolly rolled with the punches..
He should have been the Bear Jew in Inglorious Bastards... That would have been perfect.
For those of us who have and do live in Boston and know the "Southie" culture know how spot on the main character's are on Ray Donovan. Liev is PERFECT as Ray Ray. Great actor.
Absolutely love Liv-Ray, one of my favorite actor. It felt weird, him smiling in this interview ☺️
This show is amazing! Right up there with Breaking Bad.
Just started it. Seems like a spin off.
100% agree liz
The best show out there. Hopefully there will be a season 8
100 % youre so right you know what is good
he talked more in that one scene than the first few seasons of ray donovan, john wick and ray donovan is what every man wants to be.
That is one great TV show, and I don't know why isn't more people watching it... I just can't seem to convince my friends to give it a try.
Way to go Ray Ray .. U tha Man Bro .. Thanks for the awesome series .. I binged it three times .. It's gonna be a Classic... Lol .. Maybe you can come out with something similar.. oh yeah bro my bday is 10/04/65.. Peace ☮️✌️🕊️..
Happy belated birthday
Great series, I watched it and I’m watching it again.👍👍
One of my favourite tv shows of all time. Period.
Awesome interview!!! Loved it!
Something came Up...
Oh Ray Ray
This is some great production on the show's part: "Does anybody know my purpose?"
He's great. Great at everything he does.
I can't believe that the show isn't coming back for another season. I absolutely love Ray Donovan and Liev Shreiber!
His show is coming back for the 8th season, that will be the last season
I always lived Liev Shreiber. Have to admit I thought it was pronounced "leave" until recently. He was hilarious in Kate and Leopold.
Liev was terrific in SPOTLIGHT. Always had a feeling his character had a bigger part that got edited out. Wish they had and extended version...
I love Alan Alda. That voice!
Great interview.
I didn't realize how much he narrates, like almost every worthwhile documentary in recent years lol it's actually quite impressive! 👍😂
(Google the list, if you want to know.)
He's So Beautiful 😍
I was calling him Leeve this whole time 😂
When he would come into my store, I would call him "lave". That's the Yiddish way of saying his name.
@ An art supply store. He was buying picture frames. We spoke a bit, even when we saw the other around that area. He really is a teddy bear.
His wikipedia actually phonetically spells it out as LEEVE, as how to pronounce it...that's the way I thought it was pronounced...hmmm... now i know
Ray Donovan Is My Favorite Show!
He reminds me of my father when he was young and vibrant
It's amazing the contrast of seeing him relaxed, off the character, and the heavy troubled sociopath that Ray is. Also, I liked him in the Woody Allen movie.
what a charming and coolly composed cat

What a performance. He should be commended with an oscar type award
He is so good, omg 🥰 ❤❤❤

Ray Donovan is my favorite show of all time.
I've never heard of Liev (my bad) but he's great value, and a perfect foil for Colbert.
Ray Donovan’s 10/10
Am having a melt down as missing ray donavan as its best thing on tv i love it
Surprisingly hilarious - both so witty
