Saw him once doing stand up in Denver. He was sick as a dog, poor guy, but he still put on a funny ass show. Guy is hilarious and a true professional keeping his gigs even though he was ill.
Met this wonderful guy in Las Vegas airport waiting for a flight in 2008...so many celebs disappoint and are rude, he was extremely appreciative and gracious and I was so stoked that he was so hilarious in person. He really looks stoned lol that part was so funny to see about him.
MattMan82 You mean like this; " Hi honey, how was your day?" "Well, guess what.... I got another "like" on RUclips"!!! "Good for you, honey.... you sure need the " attention" especially after having an abusive husband like me"!! " I sure do, loverboy...now, go fuck yourself"!!
He has to cater to the bottom of the barrel these days, only the lowest common denominator are dumb enough for what he's peddling these days. Probably really depressing for him, but he has to make a living and there are always crowds of idiots with no discernment for real comedy.
Wow, this is amazing to watch. I miss interviews like this. Just nothing but fun and laughs all the way through. This was a great era in Conan's career.
@@James-if3kc Conan does that now? I haven't watched anything new from him in many years. At least a decade or more. It figures. They all jump on that bandwagon to stay relevant it seems.
@@Pierreandandre Well actually he hasn't been on tv in three years, but on one of his last shows in 2020 he spent the whole time talking to some guy about the George Floyd thing and it was super serious. Not a single bit of comedy on it.
@@James-if3kc Wow, that's lame. These talk show hosts need to stick to the more lighter side of things like it always used to be with these type of shows. Leave the serious stuff for news commentators and the more serious talk shows.
his Joe Pesci Show and Goat Boy is so classic, I always think he looks like a character from some of the mid 90s crazy cartoons , it is a shame that he didn't show up at the SNL 40th
Jim Breuer was sadly known as a 2 trick pony. His pesci is the best in the business. But pesci has been retired as an actor for years and did Irishman and that's it. His goat boy is funny too, or his drunk guy/stoned character. But that's it. If you actually follow his early stand up career he's very funny. He got popular by having a guest spot with Dave chappelle on the show home improvement with Tim Allen. So much so that ppl would write to the networks they wanted to see more of these guys. We now know they cut Jim from the show and it was a failed show called "buddies" with a 19-20 year old Dave chappelle.
Jim was a regular on SNL for years. Goat Boy was his big character, not one that translates to movies, so he never got a character movie off SNL. Starred in the weed movie Half-Baked w Dave Chappelle in the late 90s.
Jim is such a natural. Some people just have the gift of being able to make you laugh. And according to Jim his dad would have everyone in stitches at family gatherings.
@@nhjt6507 These talk show appearances are neither scripted nor rehearsed, no. You on't know what you're talking about. There is pre-interview stuff so they have an idea of what they'll talk about, bits that will be done, etc. But that is not scripted or rehearsed.
Jim Breuer is a part of my wife's family. Had the pleasure of meeting him years ago and he told me about how he couldn't see the cue cards because of the dark contact lenses so he ad libbed the Pesci lines in the SNL skit.
Funny was when the real Joe Pesci and the real Robert de Niro showed up on The Joe Pesci Show! You can find the clip on the Dailymotion site not on the RUclips unfortunately...

Greatest skit in SNL history!! Sorry I just saw this post now
He wanted to cuss so bad during that Pesci impersonation. Dammit
Even if i could do a joe pesci impression, I just couldn't do it without cursing because its the only way he talks in the movies.
Lol
I was thinking the exact same thing!
You felt that too!!!
Exactly 😂
3:04 if you wanna skip to the impression. 5/7
thank you
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you
Perfect score?

Sick of what..?? Coughing??
@@humbertoflores2545 didn't say but his voice was hoarse and sounded like he had a cold or flu.
I didn't even know he was sick.
Working while you're ill is not a 'true professional' thing. It's fine if you wanna do it, but it doesn't make you more professional.
Nah, he's normally like that.
He was just perfect for Half Baked
Really? I think he ruined that movie. All I ever got from him was douche chills. Never heard him do anything funny.
I clicked to hear the Joe Pesci impression, and they suprise us with a bonus Goat Story origins, right on!

I’m just realizing now that Jim is one of the most elite, naturally gifted comedians. It’s effortless for him.
He opened the new Stress Factory in Bridgeport like 2 years ago or so. Start to stop couldn’t stop laughing. He is awesome.
Ummmmm no
He did two impressions. One was of an animal.
@@thirdlionproducer4392 ruclips.net/video/V_4NbyaDjk0/видео.html
Yea he’s alright.. he’s no Norm
"You don't sound like me!"
Now that's genius ... and the ultimate brag if you think about it.
Visiting cousins in Mass some 20 years ago and they say "weah takin' you to see Brewah in Bohstun" One of the best nights of my life, he was great.
The best impression of joe pesci... Awesome! And I will always love conan shows from way back when to now
His impression of the lead singer for A/C- D/C,BRIAN JOHNSON is the funniest thing that I have ever seen!
Totally !!
Jim Breuer is a phenomenal comedian and actor. Way underrated. Much talent!

Conan after Norm died: “I didn’t even know he was sick” always fell right into Norm’s bits

Jim Brewer is a true entertainer. I laugh for hours listening to his impressions 🤣🤘🤘
His AC/DC is great, much less his Metallica
@@harpoon_bakery162 His Joe pesci impression in the snl is hilarious af
Loved when Pesci and DeNiro should up on set during the "Pesci Show" sketch.
Yes it was on that episode Rob Lowe hosted. Is it anywhere on RUclips? I can't find it
You can find that skid on the Dailymotion site! Ultra funny stuff!

He probably one of the worst cast members ever. Goat boy wasnt that funny lol
@@thirdlionproducer4392 I know what you mean, I saw some of his talkshow, kind lame, but as a snl cast, at least he has two memorable characters

I’ve never heard of this guy, his impressions are pretty good. I love his Pesci and Lorne Michaels. 😂
"I've never heard of this guy"....that's the story of Jim Breuer's career.
Soo good live👍
Watch half baked.....
Jim was a regular on SNL for years. Goat Boy was his big character, not one that translates to movies, so he never got a character movie off SNL. Starred in the weed movie Half-Baked w Dave Chappelle in the late 90s.
His pizza man story on Opie & Anthony is mandatory listening.
Jim is awesome, can't get enough of his comedy...
Jim as in Carey gene lol
Ya, he's awesome, a true talent
🇺🇸✝️👍🏻✝️
When this aired i was 2 years old. I could have understood the goat boy perfectly back then.
Turns out he’s one of the smartest people out there.
I wish SNL would post more of his skits, especially the goat boy interview with the "other guy from Wham'" Andrew Ridgeley.
His Brian Johnson AC⚡DC impression doing the Hokey Pokey is Spot on!
He has so much natural talent that he can effortlessly be hilarious.
Greatest stand up comedian ever. Notnone interview where he doesn’t talk about his dad. He loved his parents. Good guy.
3:59 I died during this bit 😂😂😂
Jim is a legend. AC/DC Hokey Pokey!
You either got Goat Boy or you didn't - I still find it one of the funniest characters in SNL history
Jim's Great
Jim is such a natural. Some people just have the gift of being able to make you laugh. And according to Jim his dad would have everyone in stitches at family gatherings.
Dude is so underrated
If he can impersonate Tom Hanks, the face he makes when he impersonates his dad while talking Tom, Woody, Forrest Gump would be mind boggling!!!!!
Jim was a good looking guy when he was younger. He reminds me of Matthew Perry haha
I came here expecting a Joe Pesci impression, but all I saw was a taller, more handsome Joe Pesci wearing a bomber jacket.
10/10 impression skillz
More handsome ? You’re lucky joe hasn’t read your comment
@@jasonrosman2379 I know. There's a reason George Carlin prays to Joe Pesci and not god.
the flow of all these shows were so good because no one was afraid to offend anyone
What ever happened to Jim Breuer? I loved Goat Boy!
He tours doing stand-up.
He tours and does comedy specials. I just saw him a few nights ago and he was spectacular.
he's maga moron
He also does the best Dave Chappelle impression I've ever heard because he and Dave were roommates at one point.
His story about his dad meeting Sylvester Stallone is hilarious too.
Like a moose ?😅
Elks club😂
@@joshuacowan3598 Yep! ruclips.net/video/FrpgPQAZlUE/видео.html
2:35 that sounded like he read it 🤣
Breuer was hysterical oncSNL, miss him.
Took Conan 15 seconds into the appearance to ask “where do you get your ideas from?”
Conan is so good! He always brings out the best in every guest
Especially Burr lol
It's literally all scripted and rehearsed
@@nhjt6507 No, it's not. They give the guest some questions beforehand and then they let it ride.
Check out Graham Norton apparently Americans completely love him and his show.Totally the way it should be.

Love these old clips! Conan’s some of the inspiration for my own show and I’m just a kid.
That's awesome, best to start young, by time you're of age you'll be naturally gifted at is. That is assuming you're still keeping it going.
probably one of Jim's best interviews, good stuff
The Joe Pesci show when Alec Baldwin played Robert De Niro was legendary 👍
His Dad was the same way I'd be. Great job Dad!!
Jim Breuer is AWESOME!!! Best Joe Pesci ever!!!
Just listening to Jim Breuer on the Joe Rogan Podcast, SNL was bloody brutal back in the day.
Bill Hicks invented GOAT BOY.....
That SNL jacket is really cool
Wow I just "discovered" Jim Breuer today. What a funny guy
"What do you mean funny? How am I funny?"
Is your name Jim Breuer? Not only are you not funny, you can't read. LOL@@surf101-
Jim is comedy Gold. So talented and creative. God Bless Long Isl a nd.
If there was a Movie about this guy Jim Carrey would be great.
Best Pesci impression ever! Him playing Pesci and Alec Baldwin playing DeNiro was comedy Gold
Still makes me laugh seeing him in that pizza commercial where he pushes the guy in the pool and runs away
Breuer and Cumia together, the best impressions.
He’s a awesome impersonator
Go get your shinebox!
I have tears from laughing 😅
Awww sweet 90s Debi Mazar there next to Jim. I wouldn't have been able to focus on talking with Conan. xD
I saw Jim 3 times. So funny
Jim Breuer is a part of my wife's family. Had the pleasure of meeting him years ago and he told me about how he couldn't see the cue cards because of the dark contact lenses so he ad libbed the Pesci lines in the SNL skit.
I love Jim's stories of his father haha
Did you hear what he said if he got famous? He would buy leather pants and a kangaroo. Limo pulls up. Come on hoppy.. and it starts front kicking kids
The late 90's, huh, a simpler time...
90s the decade of good dressing styles and coca cola
Top shelf talent, all around good guy.
Probably the best Joe Pesci I've ever heard
He’s so underrated!!!
He keeps the comedy rolling, naturally..!! 👍👍👍😁
Love Jim!!!
From 1997. Jesus, thanks for the blast from the past guys.
Funny was when the real Joe Pesci and the real Robert de Niro showed up on The Joe Pesci Show! You can find the clip on the Dailymotion site not on the RUclips unfortunately...
Jim Breuer is the GOAT.
I definitely believed he got that call from Pesci because that sounded like things Pesci would say.
3:09-3:12 This delivery gets me every time 😂
Mug club is ready for Jim
The goat bit was the best part of this by far.
Breuer, Rob Low and the... Spice Girls. A looooong time ago!
His Brian Johnson Hokey Pokey impression is my favorite
This was freaking hilarious! LOL
Men who stand with goats…with a couple of cocktails 🍹😂🤣 I am in love🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️🤣
You’re dad knew exactly what he was doing 😉😂🤣
Conan is trying to compete with his guest instead of letting him just star in the spotlight!
Two of my most favorites ...... What a treat.
"And who are you supposed to be ?" !!
Colin Quinn..... remote control (?)
I still laugh every time i just think about goat boy 😅
Its funny because The Actress sitting beside him was in Good Fellas.
She actually worked with Joe Pesci.
Man didn't realize how shy Jim Bruer was then.
Love Conan!!!
I like how Conan combined the names of two cities in Shandong Province (Tsingtao and Yantai) just to make a China reference
He without a doubt is the GOAT
And musical guest The Spice Girls...... Shows Conan has always been top notch
3:43 "Yeaaah!" foreshadowing
3:04 - 3:34 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love Joe Pesci doing goat boy!
Debi Mazar is on this guest panel at 3:56 . She'd know about Joe Pesci because she was in Goodfellas with Pesci
He’s the best!
Fashion wise this is bang on with today
