John Roberts is a fantastic writer and actor. I am compelled by the humour and injection of realism he puts into his pieces. He takes a simple idea, inserts perfect tonality of the voice, body movements, and consistency of character, and does it all with an air of ease.
This is sooooooo my mom! Getting mad when the tree wasn't turned on, yelling at us to get away from it, sitting in "her" chair covered with an afghan waiting for us to turn off the lights and light the tree..... TA-DAAA! So funny!
You are extremely talented. You took the simplest concept in the world and, through editing and your skills as a performer, turned it into something I could watch 100 times. There's backstory and affection in every moment. I wish you millions of dollars and a house with a pool.
I could watch the video over and over and over again. It’s so funny and so perfect. Reminds me of my mother and aunt. Cheers to the late 70’s babies. Happy holidays
Sometimes when I feel old I remember that I was in the generation who got to experience this when it was first out, and I don't feel so bad 😅😅An absolute classic. A must-watch on Xmas, now. It's become a tradition.
This is a classic at my house every Christmas. Can't get enough of this guy. Waiting for Bob's Burgers to return just to hear his voice every Sunday night as Linda.
When I first saw this video I thought that someone had been stalking my mother and parodied her! This is her to a T down to the appearance! Just swap the Jersey accent for a Brooklyn accent! We watch this video for about 5 years throughout the Christmas season. It never gets old!
I love all your videos...when you said "who wants Baileys" I laughed myself silly; my family always received a bottle for Christmas in the 60's. Thanks for sharing your talent with us John !!
It's that time of year again. It wouldn't be Christmas without watching this video over and over and over. It has become a family tradition! Make it nice around the tree, make it even, make it nice!
Since we first saw this video, I don’t know how many years back, it has become our Christmas tradition. Can’t let a Christmas go by without watching it.
This is absolutely perfect. I'm from Long Island and this is pretty much how all moms act. The only difference with my mom is she's Filipino and doesn't have a dirty mouth. My dad's side is Italian though. You got every little! "Bye tree. It's cold." That made me almost die laughing
My best friend and I watched this ALL the time our senior year of high school ('08). we're reminiscing right now and had to watch it over. Brings back so many memories! We still quote it all the time :) Hilarious!!
I dont celebrate christmas unfortunately (my country sucks) but If I did I'm pretty sure my mom would react like this,hahaha. Merry Christmas everyone ^^
1:02 that sweater is marvalous :D ♥ "and pick up all that shit" what my mom adds to everything as well. God this guy is better at acting like a mother than a real mother is! XDD haha
Clay! For the last like 5 years this video has been our family Christmas tradition. This video is basically the foundation of our holidays! Love it, love you! Who wants Bailey's?🤣

This was exactly how my Aunt was, every bit of it. She passed in 2021. This video has become a tradition in our family. ❤❤❤
I’m sorry for your loss…❤❤❤
14 years later and I still quote this throughout the year
My friend and I quote this ALL the time around Xmas. No one gets it but us.😆😆
SAME!
Same!!😂
@@NightMedicine😅😅😅
Me too!
When you loved this before Bobs Burgers was even a thing 😍
YESSSSS
His videos were the first thing I ever watched on RUclips when I was in my senior year in high school in 2007.
Yes, yes, yes!! One of my favorites. ❤
I just found out this was him and my jaw slammed into the floor! Good for him though!!
I was just about to say she is giving me big Linda Belcher vibes!
And here we are 16 years later and I continue to quote this ALL THE TIME.
17 !
My mom passed away in 2009, we all were raised in NJ and this entire video makes me so happy and cry at the same time. 😊😢❤🎄
❤❤❤❤
I’m so sorry for your loss.
"c'mon make it even, make it niiiiiice!" -- All of my NJ relatives
All NYers. I’m having traumatic flashbacks to my childhood 🤣🤣🤣
LOL
I can’t stop watching this. We all talk like this (in Rockland county NY:)
The flashbacks 😂😂🎉
And thus we see proto-Linda. Beautiful.
I guess this is how he auditioned for Linda
“Turn on the tree, for me, and pick up all that shit” XD this is my mother.

Watching this video has become a holiday tradition in my house. LOVE!

Just like your "Ma"
Guilty mom 💁🏼♀️
“Do me a favor, get away from the tree please?” Literally me every day from November to January. 😂
Having lived on Long Island my entire life...I can confirm the accuracy of this video 🤣🤣🤣
"Who wants Bailey's?"
What a classic!

i think he wound up getting what you wished for him!! 😆 🤍
Awww, yeah, good ol' John Roberts!!! It's a X-mas tradition, we watch "The Tree" and "New Year" EVERY year💙👍🎄
My kids always say that this is "me", we watch it every year
"Oh, put a mistletoe on my butt and kiss it, Bobby."

I could watch the video over and over and over again. It’s so funny and so perfect. Reminds me of my mother and aunt. Cheers to the late 70’s babies. Happy holidays
The "70's .
I thought it was only my mom who sounded like this. This was awesome. I showed this to all of my brothers and we couldn't stop laughing.

"Hey, get the hell outta here! Go turn on my tree!"
LOL!!! This guy is a classic!!! :)
I watch this every year around Christmas, love it haha.. never gets old.
This is a classic at my house every Christmas. Can't get enough of this guy. Waiting for Bob's Burgers to return just to hear his voice every Sunday night as Linda.

Watching this before we decorate our tree has become a tradition. Now I’m ready to decorate!
my mom and i watch this every year at christmas time - we love it
"Bye tree, its cold." Why did that make me laugh so hard? HAHAHAHA
LMAO Linda Belcher
This still brings joy to my soul I love it so much 😂
It's been years since I have see this sketch...but he nails it in every one they do. HYSTERICAL.
It's that time of year again. It wouldn't be Christmas without watching this video over and over and over. It has become a family tradition! Make it nice around the tree, make it even, make it nice!
I watched this on repeat in like 8th grade and knew every single line. so happy this guy made something great of this amazingly funny video!
OH MY FREAKING GOD IS THIS THE JOHN ROBERTS AS IN VOICE OF LINDA BELCHER OF BOB'S BURGERS OMG
Yes, it certainly is.
***** Yes
"go turn on my tree" has become me and my coworkers favorite line....
I don't understand why this is just so hilarious to me
I love this, I’ve been watching it every year for years now it’s more classic than any other film
This is one of my most favorite things, ever in life! I watch it every year and I shared it with all of my friends. It's part of who we are, now!
It's customary to watch this every Christmas. This is my mom to a t. And now that she passed we still play it and laugh hysterically lol
This is my mother. The "who wants Bailey's" still gets me every time.
This video is the gift that keeps on giving 2021 and I’m still watching it every year.💚🎄
i love this series. it's honestly exactly like a older Jersey woman would act. he does it really well
This never gets old for us! No matter what time of year it is! LOVE!
did it get old yet??
THE ORIGINAL HOUSEWIFE OF NEW JERSEY!
We had them on Long Island, too :)
Hahah that's funny!😄
I can not believe that I have watched this video every year for the past 10 years of so. It is one of my top 5 traditions for the holidays!
Feel bad for anyone who doesn't get this. You're definitely not from Long Island. Lol. This is brilliant.
You are so right. It's all the women in my Lawn Eye-lind family
or New Jersey, since he's from NJ
I grew up in Oregon & get this since my mom was obsessed w/our xmas trees lol.
@@mobsterlobster he said its based on his mom from brooklyn
@larshoneytoast33 , or Jersey.
It's that time of the year!!! The greatest video
It's like you video taped my mother from November to January. it's creepy how accurate that is.
this lives rent free in my mind all year long.
Ohmahgawd I love Linda. Fabulous!
Since we first saw this video, I don’t know how many years back, it has become our Christmas tradition. Can’t let a Christmas go by without watching it.
Bobby look at the tree :D
Still a favorite every Christmas since 2013 I watch this video always brings back memories
Christmas classic. 2019 going strong
This never gets old
@@beckybertish7841 It really doesn't.
He holds a special place in my heart because of his vines and bobs burgers 🍔
I need you to know how important this video is to me and my family this time of year.
I'm glad they did a live action of Bob's Burgers. Love the casting for Linda.
This is absolutely perfect. I'm from Long Island and this is pretty much how all moms act. The only difference with my mom is she's Filipino and doesn't have a dirty mouth. My dad's side is Italian though. You got every little!
"Bye tree. It's cold." That made me almost die laughing
He deserves every success, just brilliant, so fun to watch all his videos
omg he's the voice of Linda from Bob's Burger.
ALL THE PIECES ARE COMING TOGETHER
Having watched this with the family once again, our annual tree trimming can begin! Thanks again and happy holidays!
Christmas tradition is watching this video. LOL
An absolute classic. A modern day Mona Lisa
"pick that up. bye tree! it's cold."
ARE YOU MY MOM
Back for my yearly tradition of watching this masterpiece! Do me a favor, get away from the tree, please!
This is everyone's northern eastern mother.
I grew up on Long Island, and this is perfect!
“Oh, look at THAT tree!” 😂
I have watched this every year for the last 15 years. This is SO iconic
2019? Just me?nobody ok.
I mean, I feel like I watch this every few months if we're being honest.
I came to see the real Linda Belcher 😂
This is the only Christmas show I really watch.
I celebrate the end of the work week with Linda. I feel like I'm home.🎉
@@veronicadolginko6421 same
My best friend and I watched this ALL the time our senior year of high school ('08). we're reminiscing right now and had to watch it over. Brings back so many memories! We still quote it all the time :) Hilarious!!
I'm putting my tree up today and I can guaruntee this is what my mum will be like haha. She says nearly all of these things 😂😂😂
Reminds me so much of growing up on Long Island. I watch this every year, along with Charlie Brown Christmas.
Almost Christmas 2019? Still funny? Yes.
Flashbacks from my
Child hood. My mother is still like this about her trees.
I like closing my eyes and pretending its linda
Love him!! He make's Me laugh and inspires me to get into more characters that are hiding within. Thank you for you being you!!!
Lin, it's the day after Thanksgiving.
This is actually probably my favorite Christmas movie ever.
every year you gotta watch this
Greatest video ever. I live for thanksgiving to start watching it again
"pick up all that shit"
LOL! That's probably my favorite line. It's SUCH a 'mom' thing to say (I know MY mom has definitely said it;)
I'm a mom and I say it all the time!!!
I look forward to watching this every year!! over, and over, and over.... We love to quote it and laugh our asses off.
Is sharing this with friends and family every year a tradition for anyone else?
I can't believe this was made 12 years ago. I've probably watched it at least a two dozen times every December since. So good.
"Do me a favor...Get away from the tree please." That's my mom.
Ahhh. It's that time of year again! Thank you, John Roberts!!!
I dont celebrate christmas unfortunately (my country sucks) but If I did I'm pretty sure my mom would react like this,hahaha.
Merry Christmas everyone ^^
My children always say that it is me! We watch it often and still laugh at it, as well as the Mother's Day video. It is true New York humor!
And thus Linda Belcher was born!
It was awesome seeing them using this video as the idea for the 2013 Bob's Burger Christmas Episode. The beginning was pretty much word for word.
"turn on the tree.. and pick up all that shit." ahahahahhahahahahah who wants baileys! oh my fucking god long island childhood coming back to me
This never gets old. BRILLIANT!
"help me clean up after the tree please?"
My family and I watch this every year at Christmas
1:02 that sweater is marvalous :D ♥
"and pick up all that shit" what my mom adds to everything as well. God this guy is better at acting like a mother than a real mother is! XDD haha
I watch this every Christmas ☃️🎄☃️
Close you're eyes, its Linda from Bob's Burgers.
Yes!
It IS Linda lol
You don't have to close your eyes. It's actually him.
stupid fuck
Clay! For the last like 5 years this video has been our family Christmas tradition. This video is basically the foundation of our holidays! Love it, love you!
Who wants Bailey's?🤣
This is my mother every Christmas.
