Hang on hang on. The fact that someone knew the windows at 30 Rock don’t open all the way heavily suggests that at least one jackal is COMING FROM INSIDE THE BUILDING. You have a jackal mole
But I say he WAS also a Grammar Nazi. Per Wikipedia, Goebbels was a terrible boss, and "John Gunther wrote in 1940 that Goebbels 'is the cleverest of all the Nazis', but could not succeed Hitler because 'everybody hates him.'" I think this proves my thesis.
Corrections is one of the uploads I look the most forward to every week. I really like how hard Seth plays to his crew. And the fact that I have been there since the beginning feels like I am in on ALL of the inside jokes. Newbies have a lot of catching up to do to get some of the jokes haha. The dude's funny.
Such a great segment. It feels like being in the writer's room with Seth or seeing a comedian try new bits in a small club vs. watching the Netflix special where everything has been tested. Aside: Vanity Fair has a great interview article with Seth about how it all came about and how it's produced. Really great 5 minute read.
One day recently, I made this mistake of trying to explain Corrections to one who identifies as a non-jackal non-Corrections viewer. Never again. You are either part of this jackal pack or you are not and if you can’t appreciate watching broadcast television adjacent clips of the after hours king of sardonic insider wit on the RUclips, then you don’t deserve your rabbit ear antennae as the centerpiece of your living room…
@@elyssay3157 What is the kind of ice cream we need right now? I'm thinking something with a lot of chocolate and a lot of alcohol, but not sure how to bring those together.
The way I was yelling “David” when you kept saying “Richard”. Sir David Attenborough is the naturalist. Richard Attenborough is the actor who played the “spared no expense” guy from Jurassic Park 😅 Sincerely, Longtime viewer, first time Jackal
#Corrections - Necco wafers are still being made. The New England Confectionery Company (NECCO) made them for years (along with Conversation Hearts), but the company abruptly shut down in 2018. In May, 2020, the Spangler Candy Company started making the chalky little disks. So yes - Necco Wafers are back!
And yet I did not notice their absence on the candy shelf when they weren’t in production. No matter where I shopped the shelves were always fully stocked with Necco wafers. ( I did not fall into the trap of pluralizing Necco. I learned my lesson over the Lego brick argument.)
Yup, I know this for a fact because I've been getting them for Christmas for my entire life. Maybe my parents had a secret stockpile to cover the gap years, but they've never stopped coming.
As a jackal that's burned down three homes inadvertently and injured myself repeatedly with knives, I offer myself as further anecdotal evidence of your theory.
The Gonzo joke pacing was leaving me behind until Seth made the face and laughed. I love that the format still allows for these slow build, intimate-style meanders. Congrats to everyone for trailblazing this format (tired, nihilist, existential bewilderment) for the mainstream. I hope you get rewarded for it, I really don’t want this to go away.

Generally cylinders are not considered to have sides. But if you were to talk about their sides they only have two sides, inside and outside. The other side of a mug would be the inside of the mug.

Quick question: so if the audience is able to identify Wallys laughter, does it count as voice actor work? Follow-up question: what if the laughter is faked? Asking for a friend. (Hi Wally!)
I want to hang out with Tara. A) I am a graphic designer and always wanted to do stuff for late night shows 2) For every review I have ever gotten at a job, they said exactly what Seth said about Tara: “you’re really good at your job but you’re mean”.
Does anyone remember when he was butting heads with Shoemaker about this segment going over 10 minutes? Now it's routinely more that 16 but still feels like it's only as long as those first few episodes that were just a couple of minutes long? That's a testament to how fine this segment is! Just love the evolution of this "bit"!!!
bit of splitting hairs .. then i would definitely say the bible is basically fairy tales... a bush speaks - but that doesn't really count as an animal.
"Mm, well I got something called Travels with Charlie, ..." "Sounds like it stinks!" lmao Grapes of Wrath was pretty life changing for me - one of the few books they assigned in high school that stuck. Have been re-reading it with my partner lately and it's as relentless and relevant as ever.
Cross Jackal Talk...the title card is false Jackal Bait... The opening card, could technically be "Last Corrections of October" if this segment was the final time they corrected any errors from October...if it had said, "Last Corrections In October" then it would be need corrections now. However, if there are future corrections hailing from October it would be up for corrections. What we have here currently is a Schrodinger Cat-rection currently.
The way my screen loaded the video at first I could only see the “Last Corrections” part and I audibly gasped and said, “Oh no!” loud enough for my kids to ask what was wrong, lol. Then the screen fully showed and I saw the rest 😂
I just got home from work and I'm Googling to find out when Lowe's entered New Hampshire to see whether he even could have gone there when he was growing up. WHAT KIND OF JACKAL HAVE I BECOME??
As a fan of hyenas, I was fine with the jackal intern that was hyena-like. Partially because I was too busy laughing my ass off last week at "jackal intern". Loved it!
I had to scroll for a million years to find this comment because I also loved 'jackal intern', amazing stuff. Almost as good as 'thems elves'. (Correction: the video only came out a few days ago so I couldn't have been scrolling for a million years)
Seth needs a new corrections hat. Just a big DUNCE hat with “it was DAVID” but no actual acknowledgment of the mistake. Extra points for canid paw prints to decorate the rest of the hat (extra extra points for the /wrong/ canid paw prints for us jackals/pendants)
@@samedian can confirm. I double checked when I responded to someone calling obesity a pandemic with, "not to be an epidemiological pedant..." a couple days ago 😆😆
EuroJackals is perhaps not a great term, as old Ricky Attenborough (sic.) will tell you, there arent any jackals in northern Europe. So ... wolves, I guess? 🤔
I could see the “Thems-elves” joke coming but it was still funny XD This is really a highlight of my week and I always wait until Friday night to watch!
CORRECTION: The jackal-antern should not have a light inside from the candle BECAUSE the top isn't even open 😂. PS. Thank you Seth and Tara, I hope you all are having fun as much as we are.
wait, I assume you mean because the candle would go out because of lack of oxygen? but if the face was cut out wouldnt it just use those holes? Also, here in the midwest we cut the BOTTOM out, not the top, then we can still use the handle to lift the pumpkin to put the candle inside
If that’s the case, then we wouldn’t exactly be losers would we? If we’re correct (which we are), that indicates that there are right answers and wrong answers. If there are right and wrong answers, and we provide the right answers, then by all means we are WINNERS.
Longtime viewer, first time jackal... I really enjoyed the audiobook of "Travels with Charley" (read by Gary Sinise) on a road trip, though I never made it through "The Grapes of Wrath" (AKA, the Dust Bowl book) when it was assigned in high school. But here's my correction: if Steinbeck's werewolf murder mystery was written in 1930, it's doubtful that his editor would have said "Gimme somethin' on the Dust Bowl," since the term "Dust Bowl" wasn't coined until 1935 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_Bowl). But what can we do to get this werewolf book published?
Steinbeck's editor just knew that a book written about the Dust Bowl, 5 years before the Dust Bowl happened, would make crazy amounts of money after it came true.
My son and I went to the museum for Steinbeck. He was reading the, "dust bowl" book. As I recall they have the actual junk truck that he traveled in w Charlie whom I was surprised to learn was a poodle!
Two corrections from a grammar nerd in reference to Thursday's show: During the interview with Kumail Nanjiani you said, "... let's do a podcast just for you and I." The prepositional phrase requires "for you and me." During your explanation of "Corrections" you said, "... after the audience go home." Because audience is a collective noun, the verb should have been singular (goes).
The collective noun thing is another occasion where Seth has inadvertently chosen the British English option. In British English, collective nouns are usually associated with a plural verb.
I've been hearing the Brits using collective nouns as plural a lot lately too. And any noun that has an 's' sound at then end is pluralised in North America too. They're all wrong.
@@likebot. we’ve all been hearing the collective noun debate. It’s been had by jackals over Lego. Lego is a good toy vs Lego are a good toy. They keep using the example of water. Lots and lots of water, not waters.
That reminds me, Seth, last weekend I watched "Happy Halloween, Scooby-Doo!" which has evil pumpkins and they're called Jackal-Lanterns. I hope they weren't trademarked or you're gonna get a C&D.
Travels with Charlie is fantastic. It’s really, really good, and after months on the fence and with a relentless desire for truth and clarity in late night programming, it’s with that statement that I become a Jackal.
Slogging away on a rainy day at work and all of a sudden I remember it's Corrections Day! The sun is shining and I have a song in my heart. A little like Springtime for Hitler.
You guys were actually correct about Necco wafers being a candy that could be handed out. The Necco wafers factory shut down in 2018 but came back in the middle of 2020. It's not like Covid-19 was enough for us to be suffering through but some monster had to bring Necco wafers back.
Some of us noticed and mourned their passing and now rejoice anew at the thought of dusty dry candies with some truly crazy-ass unidentifiable flavors!
@@elyssay3157 agreed. I actually try to never watch anything fox via their personal streams ( so they don't benefit from more viewership), and his is one I go to often.
"Cannot argue with that" Well............ What about Hypertrichosis? Sometimes called Werewolf syndrome. Rare & sadly suffered by some Barnum circus performers. A baby with this disease would grow a moustache and much facial hair, that would need to be shaved to achieve the Hitler affect
Right!!! I so dislike the applause in the rest of the show. Its like when all tv shows had laugh tracts and then the office came out and it didnt and it was a breath of fresh air. Its like they added a laugh track to the office. Kills the magic
CORRECTION: You referenced that "The Elves and the Shoemaker" story is a fable, when technically it’s a fairy tale. Fables features anthropomorphized things (like animals, plants, objects, etc.), and elves are a type of humanoid supernatural being.
Correction: Seth said someone in Shoemaker’s life was a shoemaker, but unless this person was a grandparent Shoemaker would not have been alive to meet his namesake. Instead, Seth likely meant that Shoemaker had an ancestor that was a shoemaker.
Correction: it couldn't be the comic book fans who were angry at the whole Heath Ledger/Joaquin Phoenix Joker quote/makeup mismatch, as both of those Joker characterizations originated in films.
In this scenario, It may or may not be comic book fans, but would definitely be comic book movie fans. The comic book fans can still be angry, but it's because they are also comic book movie fans. There's quite a bit of overlap there.
As a 40 year old Canadian woman, I've spent a lot of time wondering why A Separate Peace was my favorite book when I was a wee jackal 🤣🤣 I guess it's in the DNA 💀
I feel like "Hyenas" is a perfectly acceptable subspecies of Jackal, those of us who catch the mistakes, don't correct them, but immediately run to the comments to make sure someone else got there first, like the hunters we are. And yes I'm aware the metaphor doesn't quite work with the scavenger/predator classification. Gotta leave something for the jackals!
He didn't say the back of the mug, he said the "other side" of the mug. That would mean the inside, as cylinders only have two sides (inside & outside).
No, the question is, how did we not see it? The handle was on the right last week. When the handle is on the right, the image facing us is the text, according to today's Corrections.
Generally cylinders are not considered to have sides. But if you were to talk about their sides they only have two sides, inside and outside. The other side of a mug would be the inside of the mug. Also, this segment is phenomenal. It seems like you all have a lot of fun with it and that shows through.
Topologically, a cup is not a cylinder but is a donut (it has a single hole, but only one surface). For that reason you can’t get to the “other side” at all.
This literally makes my week every week, so thank you so much I cannot tell you how much I love it, how much it helps me, and how much light it gives me. Yes us Jackals are actually just light vampires that suck the light out of others to replenish our light, and so when we correct you we get a bit more light to continue on with our lives.
i wish we could've an annual Jackals convention, invite the Late night team, get to hear from them, interact with them. Also - i know it is a hyena on the mug but also the coffee cup isn't inside the cup slot of the tray. not sure if that amounts to a corrections.
I would like to correct fellow jackels who say they shouldn't blame Seth because they don't teach cursive at school anymore. Seth is old. They probably taught him cursive when he was in school.
They definitely taught cursive when Seth was in school, but he isn't particularly old. Do your parents know you're using RUclips, Maria? The internet isn't an inherently safe place.
"...jackals have no light inside them." A total missed opprotunity, "jackals are not very bright and empty inside." Someone tossed out the wrong elf, it seems.
Not quite liberal eliterati there - more like friendly showbiz comic The hosts that stay out of the Dust Bowl literary comedy are great - but I 😍like🥰 this
CORRECTION: This is over 2 years late now but at 10:47 Seth says Shoemaker had someone in his "life who was a shoe maker". He should have said someone in his family.
The rest of the show exist now only to serve these golden segments.

That's what I was thinking.... 🤣
Jackals gotta jackal!
David Attenborough. Or as I like to call him, Ol’ Davey Atts
Oh, that must be one of those correctceptions I heard so much about
Correction:
The Elves and the Shoemaker is a fairytale, not a fable. A fable is used to teach a moral lesson (often with talking animals).
bit of splitting hairs .. then i would definitely say the bible is basically fairy tales... a bush speaks - but that doesn't really count as an animal.
Many dictionaries include a definition of "fable" as simply a supernatural tale without requiring it to have a moral lesson.
Either way, it's still a load of cobblers.
I thought it does have a moral lesson, be good to people and they'll be good to you. Also take pride in your work and you'll be rewarded?
Oh man, did the jackals just write a fable about ensuring accuracy in their words? Do typing animals count?
Corrections just never disappoints, always a highlight of the week ;)
I almost started crying at Seth's impression of Steinbeck's editor ... "gimmie some dumb guy who doesn't know his own strength!"
"Mm, well I got something called Travels with Charlie, ..." "Sounds like it stinks!" lmao
Grapes of Wrath was pretty life changing for me - one of the few books they assigned in high school that stuck. Have been re-reading it with my partner lately and it's as relentless and relevant as ever.
Mikey the Shoe was Steinbeck's editor
Cross Jackal Talk...the title card is false Jackal Bait... The opening card, could technically be "Last Corrections of October" if this segment was the final time they corrected any errors from October...if it had said, "Last Corrections In October" then it would be need corrections now. However, if there are future corrections hailing from October it would be up for corrections. What we have here currently is a Schrodinger Cat-rection currently.
Correct: any jackal worth their salt could tell jackal bait at a glance
@@sigil8386 absolutely! When your gut screams that's an obvious one, you know it's likely bait haha
The way my screen loaded the video at first I could only see the “Last Corrections” part and I audibly gasped and said, “Oh no!” loud enough for my kids to ask what was wrong, lol. Then the screen fully showed and I saw the rest 😂
@@MommyOfMutants that's exactly what I would have done too. This has really been the highlights of my weeks.
“Cat-rection” just sounds wrong….
The jackal paws were getting tired from clicking refresh
I'm just happy Mike Lindell is a fan, clearly Seth's impressions must be spot on.
he musta seen the amount of likes and Da Shares!
@@mrgabgutierrez also, he's here for Da Cheers when Seth does the impression
I guess he's also a sucker for splitting Da Hairs!
Ab, so, lutely. I mean it's also possible that Mike could've just been doing it for, ... ... the shares!
@@joseph-zoramcbride4029 So basically anything to get on Da Airs?
Watching corrections is really one of the best part of my week!! Thanks so much for doing this every week
I just got home from work and I'm Googling to find out when Lowe's entered New Hampshire to see whether he even could have gone there when he was growing up.
WHAT KIND OF JACKAL HAVE I BECOME??
A truth seeker like us all. A little anal retentive but ya know...
This is what helps me cope with the rest of the world. Thank you so much 😊
Wake up babe, new Corrections just dropped
the funniest part of corrections to me is when seth’s crew doesn’t laugh when he really tries lol
This has become one of my favourite internet segments. Thank you!
"Muscle an elf out" should be another form of "babadook".
I'd like to think it's the opposite. To babadook is to release when you don't want to, and when you're constipated you struggle to muscle an elf out.
“Muscle an elf out” is the New England version of “Babadook”
@@rasmis Richard Attenbruhhh just keeps them in his freezer.
Tara's art style definitely looks like she's doing furry art commissions as a side hustle.
She does graphics for Seth as a side hustle.
Hey, if Tara wants to make me a new ref sheet.... 🦨

@@RaptieFeathers Ites eay to belive furry art pays better than network TV
@@geraldgrenier8132 furry art pays better than most things.
As a fan of hyenas, I was fine with the jackal intern that was hyena-like. Partially because I was too busy laughing my ass off last week at "jackal intern". Loved it!
I had to scroll for a million years to find this comment because I also loved 'jackal intern', amazing stuff. Almost as good as 'thems elves'.
(Correction: the video only came out a few days ago so I couldn't have been scrolling for a million years)
16 minutes of Seth referring to the wrong Attenborough brother….
Seth needs a new corrections hat. Just a big DUNCE hat with “it was DAVID” but no actual acknowledgment of the mistake. Extra points for canid paw prints to decorate the rest of the hat (extra extra points for the /wrong/ canid paw prints for us jackals/pendants)
Richard Attenborough was in Jurassic Park, which if I am not mistaken, had 'animals' in it.. Ergo, close enough..
@@vysharra not to be pendantic, but I believe it’s spelled “pedants.”
@@samedian Like pendants, those jackals are always hanging around
@@samedian can confirm. I double checked when I responded to someone calling obesity a pandemic with, "not to be an epidemiological pedant..." a couple days ago 😆😆
Friday! Lunchtime! Corrections! Pure bliss. #EuroJackals
Oh man, I had no idea we had a spin-off group! #EuroJackals 🇮🇪
*Awoos in European*
EuroJackals is perhaps not a great term, as old Ricky Attenborough (sic.) will tell you, there arent any jackals in northern Europe. So ... wolves, I guess? 🤔
@@vibekewl this is such a jackal-y answer: I love it
Hi EuroJackals!!
Corrections has become my favorite segment…just enjoying
I could see the “Thems-elves” joke coming but it was still funny XD
This is really a highlight of my week and I always wait until Friday night to watch!
Ahh, nothing like coffee and corrections on a Friday morning!
Correction : Coffee, Corrections and Cannabis, it's a Colorado thing.
Same for me! Make my breakfast and coffee and enjoy the best part of my week!
@@RIXRADvidz actually, yea 😅 but coffee, corrections and cannabis in Michigan too 💚
It is dangerous to drink coffee while watching Corrections. In fact, there should be a warning.
I need a shield for my tablet from flying coffee
CORRECTION: The jackal-antern should not have a light inside from the candle BECAUSE the top isn't even open 😂.
PS. Thank you Seth and Tara, I hope you all are having fun as much as we are.
I make mine by cutting out the bottom.
wait, I assume you mean because the candle would go out because of lack of oxygen? but if the face was cut out wouldnt it just use those holes? Also, here in the midwest we cut the BOTTOM out, not the top, then we can still use the handle to lift the pumpkin to put the candle inside
Well, I stand corrected.... I have never cut the bottom to put a candle in a pumpkin. So it is possible I guess 😂
@@moonkey537 Yeah, it's really neat, I use the disc from the bottom as a candle holder and just set the jack-o'-lantern on top.
@@tnnkosi That's actually my plan for my "Scream" pumkin for next year.
Favorite morning of the week!!
To throw something/someone out of a window (such as elves) is called to defenestrate.
So stocked! My defenestration correction made it to air the following week! Jackal power!
"Muscle an elf out" is a euphemism that Santa uses to announce that he is going to the toilet.
We may be losers but we are CORRECT.
If that’s the case, then we wouldn’t exactly be losers would we? If we’re correct (which we are), that indicates that there are right answers and wrong answers. If there are right and wrong answers, and we provide the right answers, then by all means we are WINNERS.
@@doodoobutter101 Sir, you are CORRECT. But I am very distracted by your username 😳
@@hoozle 🤣🤣🤣
I'm going into work a tad later so I can start my Friday off right with Corrections. Love it!!
No correction needed for Tara in graphics. She's right.
Actually, it should be "You're losers." Proper capitalization and punctuation are important.
I left one of those comments, it's obviously a laughing hyena from Lion King. Also, the back of the cup made laugh uproariously.
Cylinders only have 2 sides (outside and inside), the writing should be on the inside.
@@Oliolli3 Watch the video again. It is grammatically correct.
@@r3v3rbs0ul It was a cylinder... right until the handle was added. It no longer is a cylinder; sorry.
My favorite show. Masterful ability to apologize while pointing out jackals never deserve an apology.
Longtime viewer, first time jackal... I really enjoyed the audiobook of "Travels with Charley" (read by Gary Sinise) on a road trip, though I never made it through "The Grapes of Wrath" (AKA, the Dust Bowl book) when it was assigned in high school. But here's my correction: if Steinbeck's werewolf murder mystery was written in 1930, it's doubtful that his editor would have said "Gimme somethin' on the Dust Bowl," since the term "Dust Bowl" wasn't coined until 1935 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_Bowl). But what can we do to get this werewolf book published?
Steinbeck's editor just knew that a book written about the Dust Bowl, 5 years before the Dust Bowl happened, would make crazy amounts of money after it came true.
My son and I went to the museum for Steinbeck. He was reading the, "dust bowl" book. As I recall they have the actual junk truck that he traveled in w Charlie whom I was surprised to learn was a poodle!
Here we go jackals!
The weekend has officially begun...
I watch from England so it's ready when I get home from work. Ahhh, perfect!
@@lucindasmith589 same here!
😁👍
Two corrections from a grammar nerd in reference to Thursday's show: During the interview with Kumail Nanjiani you said, "... let's do a podcast just for you and I." The prepositional phrase requires "for you and me." During your explanation of "Corrections" you said, "... after the audience go home." Because audience is a collective noun, the verb should have been singular (goes).
The collective noun thing is another occasion where Seth has inadvertently chosen the British English option. In British English, collective nouns are usually associated with a plural verb.
I've been hearing the Brits using collective nouns as plural a lot lately too. And any noun that has an 's' sound at then end is pluralised in North America too. They're all wrong.
@@likebot. we’ve all been hearing the collective noun debate. It’s been had by jackals over Lego. Lego is a good toy vs Lego are a good toy. They keep using the example of water. Lots and lots of water, not waters.
@@Henry-W-Schlemmer what do you think this is? I assume you also think fish swim too much.
@@Trevin_Taylor 🤣😂
That reminds me, Seth, last weekend I watched "Happy Halloween, Scooby-Doo!" which has evil pumpkins and they're called Jackal-Lanterns. I hope they weren't trademarked or you're gonna get a C&D.
Travels with Charlie is fantastic. It’s really, really good, and after months on the fence and with a relentless desire for truth and clarity in late night programming, it’s with that statement that I become a Jackal.
Welcome to the pack!
Honestly, these are the best. I thoroughly enjoy Seth riffing with this staff. The pauses are the best lol
Slogging away on a rainy day at work and all of a sudden I remember it's Corrections Day! The sun is shining and I have a song in my heart. A little like Springtime for Hitler.
I wonder if Corrections is Seth's way of making more money with a flop than a hit.
@@bonniewylie3287 Well-played.
Corrections--it'll run for years!
Where did we go right? Where did we go right?
I think the world is ready for "Springtime for Young Hitler," featuring a baby with blue eyes and a mustache.
"Apologies to him and his family" is indeed grammatically correct. You got one, Seth.
To he and his family. Not to him and his family.
@@JohnRay1969 Nope, the rules don't change with multiple subjects. You don't say, " my apologies to he."
You guys were actually correct about Necco wafers being a candy that could be handed out. The Necco wafers factory shut down in 2018 but came back in the middle of 2020. It's not like Covid-19 was enough for us to be suffering through but some monster had to bring Necco wafers back.
Yes! I was going to say Necco Wafers are still available in Canada. I just bought some the other day.
Some of us noticed and mourned their passing and now rejoice anew at the thought of dusty dry candies with some truly crazy-ass unidentifiable flavors!
😂😂😂
I'd just been substituting with Tums
The revelation joke cracked me up … and made me sad about the fact that nobody in the studio did so.
"Cursive Race Training", that was something special. ;)
Can you imagine FOX doing weekly corrections? 😆 You're the best, Seth!
It would have to be 5 centuries long! Plus of course they don't appear to be able to make fun of themselves
Isn't the cumulative group of Late Night shows just corrections for Fox News🤣
@@phelonyphatbottom902 Also Brian Tyler Cohen. He does great Fox News corrections.
@@elyssay3157 agreed. I actually try to never watch anything fox via their personal streams ( so they don't benefit from more viewership), and his is one I go to often.
@@elyssay3157
Surely you must already be a fan of "Beau of the Fifth Column." 😆
“Babies don’t grow moustaches”
Yep
Can not argue with that
Lol
The weirdest defense (?) of Hitler ever noted?
"Cannot argue with that" Well............
What about Hypertrichosis? Sometimes called Werewolf syndrome. Rare & sadly suffered by some Barnum circus performers.
A baby with this disease would grow a moustache and much facial hair, that would need to be shaved to achieve the Hitler affect
@@nomadpurple6154 ok! We hopefully won’t be dealing with a nazi hypertrichosis baby any time soon, but point taken
Ahhh, my quiet place where there are no audience members.
Right!!! I so dislike the applause in the rest of the show.
Its like when all tv shows had laugh tracts and then the office came out and it didnt and it was a breath of fresh air. Its like they added a laugh track to the office. Kills the magic
It's laugh TRACK, not tracts.
There were other shows that had no laugh track, before the Office.
The Larry Sanders Show is one example.
@@Argeaux2 who?
Funny how Steinbeck’s editor sounded just like Shoemaker.
Shoemaker has lived many lives
CORRECTION: You referenced that "The Elves and the Shoemaker" story is a fable, when technically it’s a fairy tale. Fables features anthropomorphized things (like animals, plants, objects, etc.), and elves are a type of humanoid supernatural being.
Do you think half way through he realized he was using the wrong Attenborough and just had to commit?
Nope, he knew the entire time.
He's been hanging out with the graphics department and is starting to get off on being a naughty boy 😜
It was the right Attenborough for the lizards joke coz he was the old man from Jurrassic Park. The rat joke should probably have been David though
Just teasing the jackals with fresh raw meat.
Richard also played the circus leader in Dr. Dolittle. Gotta assume he knew who he was talking about.
Oh. Are they two different people?
Correction: Seth said someone in Shoemaker’s life was a shoemaker, but unless this person was a grandparent Shoemaker would not have been alive to meet his namesake. Instead, Seth likely meant that Shoemaker had an ancestor that was a shoemaker.
“In his life” could mean a friend, coworker, or acquaintance. Maybe he knows a shoe maker.
He literally meant an ancestor and I don't think there is any ambiguity there.
@@travelwell6049 You're new to Corrections, aren't you?
Correction: it couldn't be the comic book fans who were angry at the whole Heath Ledger/Joaquin Phoenix Joker quote/makeup mismatch, as both of those Joker characterizations originated in films.
Comic book movies.
In this scenario, It may or may not be comic book fans, but would definitely be comic book movie fans. The comic book fans can still be angry, but it's because they are also comic book movie fans. There's quite a bit of overlap there.
@@christopherlundgren1700 Needlework enthusiasts support the distinction
I used to be a comic book fan and I hated comic book movies.
Now I'm uninterested in both.
As a 40 year old Canadian woman, I've spent a lot of time wondering why A Separate Peace was my favorite book when I was a wee jackal 🤣🤣 I guess it's in the DNA 💀
"Gimme somethin' on the Dust Bowl!" - LOL
How did you not see the print on the back of the hyena mug?
Also, jackals don't care what hyenas think. They're just in it for the laughs.
I feel like "Hyenas" is a perfectly acceptable subspecies of Jackal, those of us who catch the mistakes, don't correct them, but immediately run to the comments to make sure someone else got there first, like the hunters we are.
And yes I'm aware the metaphor doesn't quite work with the scavenger/predator classification. Gotta leave something for the jackals!
He didn't say the back of the mug, he said the "other side" of the mug. That would mean the inside, as cylinders only have two sides (inside & outside).
No, the question is, how did we not see it?
The handle was on the right last week. When the handle is on the right, the image facing us is the text, according to today's Corrections.
@@Taurusus Correction: Hyenas hunt as well. 😉
Jackals don't gatekeep... some of us might be more raccoon catching window elfs than hyenas with lunch trays.
Generally cylinders are not considered to have sides. But if you were to talk about their sides they only have two sides, inside and outside. The other side of a mug would be the inside of the mug.
Also, this segment is phenomenal. It seems like you all have a lot of fun with it and that shows through.
Using your definition mags have four sides.
Inside and outside of the cylindrical part, top and bottom of the circular part.
Topologically, a cup is not a cylinder but is a donut (it has a single hole, but only one surface). For that reason you can’t get to the “other side” at all.
Seth, it's not "You're Losers." We are Your Losers; use of the possessive is appropriate here.
Nice one
It's a contraction for "you are."
@@Edu_Kate We know.
It was a joke. 😆
🤣🤣💚
This literally makes my week every week, so thank you so much I cannot tell you how much I love it, how much it helps me, and how much light it gives me.
Yes us Jackals are actually just light vampires that suck the light out of others to replenish our light, and so when we correct you we get a bit more light to continue on with our lives.
CORRECTIONS: STILL my favorite segment! Thanks for keeping it.
i wish we could've an annual Jackals convention, invite the Late night team, get to hear from them, interact with them.
Also - i know it is a hyena on the mug but also the coffee cup isn't inside the cup slot of the tray. not sure if that amounts to a corrections.
Let’s make it happen!!
@@doodoobutter101
Some blue state in the Midwest perhaps? Colorado or Illinois...
I would like to correct fellow jackels who say they shouldn't blame Seth because they don't teach cursive at school anymore. Seth is old. They probably taught him cursive when he was in school.
They definitely taught cursive when Seth was in school, but he isn't particularly old.
Do your parents know you're using RUclips, Maria? The internet isn't an inherently safe place.
I’m 57! Of course Seth isn’t old. It’s a joke!
Aww, not too old! But yeah I kind of had a similar thought.
Ouch! That hurt me.
@@mariadorazio7001 🤦♀️ sorry 🙂
Wondering why this isn't called "A Corrective Look"?
A Loser Look
Technically….this could also be called “A Closer Look”. 🧐🔍
I Absolutely love the corrections segment. I love that its still with just the crew too. What a great idea.
The crew MAKES it!!!
Somewhere out there, someone is screen capping that Gonzo pic, and setting it aside in a special folder marked 'Taxes'.
"...jackals have no light inside them." A total missed opprotunity, "jackals are not very bright and empty inside." Someone tossed out the wrong elf, it seems.
That sentence should be phrased, "Jackals are not very bright, and are empty inside."
/jackal
I was also expecting an "empty inside" joke haha
you’re pushing hard for your B&J’s flavor to be a closer lick, but i think it should be CONFECTIONS
you sure don't see fallon or corden dropping multiple steinbeck references on their shows, so that's gotta count for somethin
Not quite liberal eliterati there - more like friendly showbiz comic
The hosts that stay out of the Dust Bowl literary comedy are great - but I 😍like🥰 this
I doubt either of those fools can even read.
Corden can barely find his ass with with both hands, and his ass is huge!
Is anyone watching those two?
YES Seth - way to always represent your roots in NH! Come visit and bring jackal mugs please!
CORRECTION: This is over 2 years late now but at 10:47 Seth says Shoemaker had someone in his "life who was a shoe maker". He should have said someone in his family.
