Well, she didn't pass away last week. Patton allowed himself the time he needed to grieve. I feel so bad for him. But I'm genuinely moved by the way in which he seems to have dealt with the loss. Dark Blade, you're an idiot.
He probably poisoned his wife as a human sacrifice to the Satanic entertainment industry so he could get more famous, stuff like that happens all the time
His wife couldn’t open her own pill bottles she was so weak, he was her carer (3 weeks until death), 2 different high amounts drugs in system and his alibi is she must have been depressed and he was dropping the kids at school. Married within 8 months, called his new girl “the improvement” Divorces are expensive
@@Cononized You write this stuff on every one of his videos. Get help, weirdo. You're cyber-stalking his videos with your insanity. Seriously, you need some major help.
@@brmbkl Like how? Shawn Abner’s son is more famous than patton oswald, wife killer Ohhhhhh you have hundreds of comments on this channel shilling for random celebs/melting down about trump 😂 He’s a lefty like you zogbot
It's because they're not cheering or anything. They're just clapping. If you listen to any other time that the audience claps, they're all cheering and yelling 'WOOOO'. This is more reserved.
How is that heartless when that's literally part of the cycle of grief? There are oases of silence and clear observation of what's happened to you in between the feelings of drowning. People to whom this has happened know and understand; people who don't usually miss the point by a mile.
My husband has been gone almost 3 1/2 years and I still wear mine too...I've been where he is and there were tears streaming down my face the whole interview

@@maureencerni6006 Some people do that because of how beat up they actually are.

It's really not that difficult to imagine, even if you wouldn't do it yourself.
It feels like it's been forever since hearing of Michelle's passing and I'm so happy to hear Patton and his family are doing okay. I love the way Patton can weave together these long explanations of things in his life to where it makes sense in a beautiful and meaningful way. If words were fabric, Patton would be a goddamn tapestry artist.

He nailed happiness. Happiness is the little, sometimes seemingly meaningless moments you spend with a person. The bad part is you never get them back. The good part is you never lose them; for as long as you want them, they're yours.
I have so much more respect for this man. I can't imagine how I'd be able to cope if I lost a loved one, let alone even trying to get through it. I wish him and his daughter the best.
This video has been sitting in my watch later list for a couple days now. I got that annoying notification from RUclips to watch this video. Finally built up the courage to do so. I feel like I've known Patton for such a long time watching his comedy. Seeing him rejoice in such a win like an Emmy and having to bury his wife in the same year is too much to handle. Dunno what this will bring in the next chapter. Deepest sympathies to Patton. Thanks for having him on, Coco.
Patton and his work has already helped me through some rough times, I am truly thankful... really sorry that him and his family had to go through this :(
I am tearing up here. Patton is one of those artists whose comedy really blows me away, and thinking of him having to handle suffering and bereavement and the loss of someone who fit so centrally into his standup really makes me sad.
What a beautiful man. What a beautiful testimony of his relationship with his late wife. Maybe if he understands that HE was such a blessing to her, that might make him feel a little better.
I keep coming back to this video. Anyone who has ever loved someone and lost them to death can relate to these simple truths, so eloquently worded here by Patton Oswalt. I would give anything to be back again, bickering with my mom making Christmas cookies, two frustrated cooks with flour everywhere in a crowded kitchen. But that will never happen again in this world. It's important to remember all of our happiest memories, all of our high points in life involve the friends and family we love. Hold on to your friends and family, see them often, spend time with them. Love is the joy of life. There is no substitute.
Adam Halley-Prinable I was just thinking the same thing, it's so beautiful how he describes his happiness now to his happiness then as the difference between the flavor versus the actual nutrients.
Love this guy. I'm so glad he's still getting out there and doing comedy. He seems like an awesome dad, as well. I hope Patton knows that his comedy has helped other people smile and laugh through their own grief/loss/tough times.

I feel so sorry for him because he's really a great guy who's also funny that you wouldn't want something like this to weigh him down. He seems to deal well with it though which is uplifting to notice. We can all look up to him.
This video made me cry, I would be so devastated to lose my best friend and the love of my life. So many people divorce their spouse who they once Proposed to passionately and some wouldn't even care if they never existed after the divorce. but Patton doesn't deserve such a horrible thing.
It does. My own mother died when I was a kid as well, nowhere near as sudden. But seeing your Dad, this guy that loved your Mom with every fiber of your existence telling you that she's dead... and his reaction? That's even harder. Messes you up.
Because they arnt worshipping their lord and savior jesus christ, its so sad. If they would just go to church 3 times a week (atleast) and give 40 % of their wealth and spread the good word of thee greatest book ever written then Nothing would bad would ever happen. Tht why the tsunami in asia wrecked havik, because most of them are Muslim. Yup. And and the volcanic eruption in greenland back in 2011, because we all know most of them are still celtic polytheism. Think about it.
Thought about it. What you'd call faith is actually an engagement in the sin of pride. You're way too certain of your infallibility in precognition and causation of geo-global events, and reference scripture to buttress your certitude. You double down on your pride by urging conformity to a prescribed formula of worship, in the hope of avoiding bad juju. Your superstitions may work for you, if only to blind you. Don't attempt to blind others. Jesus Christ is capitalized, by the way. He would probably forgive you, but it's a point of grammar that a true believer should be aware of to short-circuit criticism. Oracles shouldn't appear to be so scattered or ignorant. That's why those mega-church pastors have such nice hair and teeth: to make scripture more appealing when it emanates from their pie-holes. Not that it would matter to you...
It's in the happy moments that often times makes you remember what you lost, because you search for them to share in the happiness. And that hole felt a little more larger at that time.
“I will actually know real happiness if I run into it again based on my experience with her.” Best silver lining you can take away, very eloquently put
It's a great thing that he can talk about his wife with such affection without breaking down
He probably poisoned her
Well, she didn't pass away last week. Patton allowed himself the time he needed to grieve.
I feel so bad for him. But I'm genuinely moved by the way in which he seems to have dealt with the loss.
Dark Blade, you're an idiot.
People get poisoned all the time. It happens. Sorry to burst your little naive view of the world where nobody gets poisoned.
He probably poisoned his wife as a human sacrifice to the Satanic entertainment industry so he could get more famous, stuff like that happens all the time
I know that you are being a troll, but please know your boundary. Someone was dead, and a family lost their family member. Be nice.
"That was happiness." I'm not exaggerating, I immediately started crying.
As per usual.

The audience's applause seemed so supportive and heartfelt
it sounded different from happy applause somehow. i don't know why
It's because they're not cheering or anything. They're just clapping. If you listen to any other time that the audience claps, they're all cheering and yelling 'WOOOO'. This is more reserved.

Cuz almost every time the audience have an “Applause” sign. And this seemed so supportive because it is. I dont know who doesn't.
cant believe he's not crying. this is so beautiful.
He's probably somewhat numb.
whoa. that's heartless of you.
However sad it is, it's probably fairly accurate.
There is no cookie cutter way of dealing with tragic emotions.
How is that heartless when that's literally part of the cycle of grief?
There are oases of silence and clear observation of what's happened to you in between the feelings of drowning. People to whom this has happened know and understand; people who don't usually miss the point by a mile.
Really touching and heartfelt. It's great to see him talk about her without breaking down. Just shows that he is a really strong person.
Or depressed

That almost made me cry. You can hear it in his heart and see it in his face how much he loved this woman.
Sounds (and feels like) the man would give anything to have his wife back. He misses her very very much.
That's Love that not many can speak to and of and it being genuine.
He did get engaged to another woman very quickly after her death. Couldn't be too beat up.

Such a deep man. ‘There’s no flavour there or nutrition’. That is exactly what grieving is. So deep 💔
This made me cry. When you lose someone you love it takes awhile to feel happiness again.
I already had a lot of respect for Patton Oswalt, but I've got even more after seeing this.
My mom passed on December 21st and I understand that feeling of empty happiness. This grief is a grief I have never known.
been waiting to feel like he's ok for awhile. Love to him and his family.
Huge respect for Mr. Oswalt!
This is so sweet to watch and my heart aches for him. I hope one day he is able to feel more happiness than grief again.
The way he talks you can tell it was/still is true love. Not many people are lucky enough to experience love like that in their life.
He nailed happiness. Happiness is the little, sometimes seemingly meaningless moments you spend with a person. The bad part is you never get them back. The good part is you never lose them; for as long as you want them, they're yours.
my heart goes out to him. what a guy; really deserves more than such an unfortunate personal loss
How heartfelt. I so appreciate just how honest and upfront he is, let alone on a talk show. He is so brave. Bless his heart.
I have so much more respect for this man. I can't imagine how I'd be able to cope if I lost a loved one, let alone even trying to get through it. I wish him and his daughter the best.
Truly impressive the way he put his feelings into words. really accurately encapsulated how it feels. I feel so bad for him.
Oh man, he just described what real love felt like and it broke my heart.
I just really want to give him a hug right now 😟❤️

Stefanie Esposito I'm on mobile....I can't escape the feels
Damn, I didn't realize I was doing exactly that
He has a way of putting difficult human conditions into genuine relatable words
What a beautiful man. What a beautiful testimony of his relationship with his late wife. Maybe if he understands that HE was such a blessing to her, that might make him feel a little better.
I always liked him because of king of queens but now I also have huge respect for this man!
“I will actually know real happiness if I run into again based on what I experienced with her”... man.. That hits
wow, I didn't know her. But his description of her was very touching. sorry for your loss Patton
Patton is gorgeus.
fat is beautiful#SJW
He has so much depth. To me that's true beauty. His wife must have seen that too.
This is so valuable. Its rare to see someone so introspective and open on national tv

Man, I always loved Patton Oswalt's stand-up material! Here he's very descriptive and poignant. My heart goes out to the guy, that's got to be tough.
this is some Bojack Horseman level depth of thought on thin happiness

Best wishes to him. Very moving. A tribute to his wife and marriage
Swamp full of poison is probably the best description for such a terrible situation
He spoke so beautifully 😔
What a guy. Makes me tear up the way he talks about her.
I want to give him a hug and just sit with him and have him tell me stories about his wife.
This is so touching. I will always be a fan of his from now on.
This is so beautiful and so accurate to the way true love feels
He is still wearing his wedding ring.... :(
It's very possible that he won't take it off. I can't blame him either.
I think a lot of widows and widowers will always wear them. Even if they get remarried the previous one will just move over to the right hand
I feel so sorry for him because he's really a great guy who's also funny that you wouldn't want something like this to weigh him down. He seems to deal well with it though which is uplifting to notice. We can all look up to him.
More people like him should become famous
Wait people actually disliked this
probably Jay Leno...
There will always be an SOB somewhere :D
Maybe they disliked it because his wife died, or because it gave them bad feelings.
You’d be surprised how many people lack basic human empathy and compassion
probably just the bots

Great actor and comedian.
I was really worried when I heard the news cause I remember him talking about depression in his act. I'm happy he's coping.
God that must be hard.
It does. My own mother died when I was a kid as well, nowhere near as sudden. But seeing your Dad, this guy that loved your Mom with every fiber of your existence telling you that she's dead... and his reaction? That's even harder. Messes you up.

Sorry for your loss.
This is the 3rd time I've watched this video. It's obviously very sad, but it also makes me happy how he talks about her 😔
Remarkably articulate about such a fresh, painful event: breaks my heart.
Patton is such a fantastic human being.
How tragic! Really really sad for the two of them. I wish the best for the two of them.
Sometimes I just don't understand why bad things happen to good people.
