Sam doing stand up and considering himself "bombing" while taking the piss out of the crowd and having a good show with it is the stuff true professionals are made of. Good stuff man.
I agree-this isn’t what I would call “bombing” ::background laughter and applause:: I think Sam just has high expectations of himself AND the crowd! (Although I do love watching him deal with real hecklers)
He was definitely struggling, the crowd wasn't with him and he was trying to get them back. You can tell he isn't on his regular pace. Usually the crowd goes a lot more wild for Sam
@@ccsmooth560 If you bomb, you're not nearly as naturally funny as you think you are.. Stop blaming the crowd.. An actual naturally hilarious person can make a room full of people laugh consistently with ease
@@michaelangst6078 i dont think you know about comedians all that much. This youtube video evidently proves you wrong. Some comedians just have bad sets, doesnt mean they're unfunny, its just that even funny people dont have an easy time pleasing everyone
The thing is it is a great set. It was a shitty crowd. Instead of wilting, he went off script and started using the crowd for his material. Just like he used the bus stop as a bit multiple times, because there are a lot of drug addicts in the streets of Spokane.
@@robertm4050 was it a shit crowd? I’ve heard a lot of different comedians talk about what makes a crowd good or not. In most cases it comes down to … if that group is really getting his jokes. He identified that 50% of the room was loving his material. So, if 50% don’t like dead baby jokes the crowd is garbage? Would he have felt that way 10 years ago in his career?
@@zero11010 10 years ago if he was even in the business back then, he would have had to cater to the crowd because he was new. That is if he could handle the groans and off comments. So there is no comparison for then and now. He is doing a 3 set day because his tickets were selling out well before the day this was filmed. If you are buying tickets in advance, then you should probably like who you are going to see and know what jokes are coming.
@@zero11010 3 sets in one night is unusual for most headline comics. So yeah that is how it works. They add more sets if demand is high enough. He is super popular these days.
I've always wanted a comedian to post his absolute worst sets. Or show every iteration of a joke that sucks at first, then gets better over time, then eventually when it's in a special you can see how much work and pain it takes
Geoffrey Asmus is a really good example of a comic posting their sets over time so you can see how jokes evolve - really interesting insight into the process. He's also really fucking funny which is a bonus! Worth checking out :D
Yeah I don't get it. Can hardly laugh at themselves. At least the one lady with them was desperately trying to keep her spirits up and have a good time. She needs new friends, for sure.
I've gone all over the country to see standup as a pastime. It's expensive and time consuming, so l thoroughly check out the venue and comedian. All but a couple shows sucked real bad, even the biggest named ones.
I literally chose to bring my 20 year old GF to an off-broadway play instead of seeing Tommy Davidson (and others) at Caroline's or rolling the dice on which random NYC comedy club would have someone decent roll in lol
Dude, apart from extremely well packaged joke-writing, Sam Morrill has mastered his intonation of making his voice dip down really low to indicate laughter. Sometimes an audience really needs hard consonants, very specific pauses, etc. to make jokes work. You can have the best joke in the world, but times wrong it can literally be a dead bomb.
@@loribernardisunwell9663 Nawww, some people just don't like self deprecating humor at comedy clubs and spending half or more of the set making fun of the audience.. Dude is funny, but let's not pretend he is something special.. He ain't
@@LetsBeHonestImAPrat when you have to resort to talking to the audience and using self deprecating humor for like half of your set or more, you're bombing.. Literally any comic can turn to doing this and still have some people in the crowd laugh.. Doesn't mean you're not bombing
LOL I thought it was good. It's fun to watch you deal with the situation. Also, you were nice to me a few weeks ago on W 4th St. I admire your work, so that was a cool moment for me. Thank you :)
My older brother and I used to go to the movies and just watch whatever looked best. Until we ended up watching Angels in the Outfield and had to rethink our lifestyles.
Part of me thinks most comics are secretly hoping to find themselves in a Bill Burr Yells At All Of The Greater Philadelphia Area At 2pm On A Tuesday Outdoor Show type situation. Sam made it entertaining for me lol
If THIS is what a professional comedian considers bombing, this is so much more tolerable than I thought. This can't be bombing. Either that or Sam's standards are very high for his work.
Damn it really sucks that amazing comedians like Sam and Mark have to put up with horrible crowds like this. They should be doing arenas where they can't even hear these losers ruining the show.
Ort maybe he just isn't as special as you think he is?? This guy is alright.. Good delivery, but he has a lot of filler imo... He even says he is overworking himself in the video.. His results with the crowd are to be expected
Jeniesque level crowd work here with a so so crowd. Professionally Sam is killing it, but his stubborn support of the Dolan Knicks reminds me of a very very rich guy I ran into who is killing it and when people comment how fortunate he is, his response was I could say I am having it all, but I have been a Jets fan for 25 years.
It really wasn't.. You think the I know my jokes suck, so I am going to use self deprecating humor, and make fun of the crowd stuff hasn't been done a million times over?? He wasn't that funny doing it either
Приколы
Can't really blame the crowd. They probably thought they were going to see a world class mime.
Dude, this comment killed me. Well done 😂
Haha good one
Outstanding!
well done my friend.
LOL 😂 good one

It's called clickbait, chump
He literally hit them with " No u". Wouldnt call that A Professional heckler handling xD

This was very bad and material sucked
He was definitely struggling, the crowd wasn't with him and he was trying to get them back. You can tell he isn't on his regular pace. Usually the crowd goes a lot more wild for Sam
Cool to see someone post the unglamorous side of comedy!
Every time l bomb, which is often, l don't blame the crowd. I feel bad for them. And l feel like l need to improve.

I absolutely love that you’re showing both great sets and less than great sets. I think it’s important to show realism, and I appreciate it!

Listen to that Dice album from like 30yrs ago.
I appreciate it too. Another one of my fav comics is Fahim Anwar does sets where he "works on stuff" it's on yt
I love Sam's crowd work... I'm just wondering if he went for a run after the show too.
Hahah everyone jogs faster with pitchforks behind them
If he gets into real danger, the White Knight will save him..
White knight throw back best story ever
Yeah I don't get it. Can hardly laugh at themselves. At least the one lady with them was desperately trying to keep her spirits up and have a good time. She needs new friends, for sure.
I worked this show these people litterally were terrible the worst old mean fucks that were allergic to laughter.
Edit title, the crowd bombed. I throughly enjoyed this roasting the crowd. Honest, professional and held himself together well.
He's shitting on them but also wants them to enjoy themselves at the same time
Ah that really cheered me up.
“I like him better than you.”
I’m a big fan of comedy and I wouldn’t even show up to a random show without seeing who’s performing

We were at the 4:30 show. Killed it! Loved the show!

This is how I first saw him. Some friends wanted to go to a comedy show and he happened to be the guy.
This is one of the best videos I've ever seen. Morril is the best!
This guy can make the cigarette on the floor something to be laughed at. What a talent.
Absolute master of crowd work - how were people not laughing that shit was hysterical 😂
Many people in this world are dead inside..many of them gathered here on the same night apparently lol

Im from Spokane the bus station joke gold! I missed your show man but I hope you come back
You really have become my favourite comedian these days.
You have a very low bar if you think this guy is the funniest
@@michaelangst6078 same bar you are using then to reply to comments
Just imagine the joke attell would've said bout that shirt
I WISH I had been at a new years eve party with Sam - you handled it like a pro but I wouldnt call it bombing at all :P you rock dude
Hoping you'll make it to Lubbock Tx someday! Great crowds at the few comedy shows we've
You call that a bomb? Hold my tombstone.
-Norm McDonald
We miss you Norm
Yeah but norm bombing was still killing, that was his thing. RIP norm.
Norm attempting to purposely bomb on Bob Saget’s roast was a legendary moment in comedy 😭🤣🤣
@@LyricallyWine626 That roast was the best. Norm will always be a legend.
3 shows in one day! The man is the future of the greats, can’t wait to see him in Royal Oak 🤝
Sam looks like a 1930's escaped convict
I love the self aware humble titles Sam picks
Next time, use some commas.. I almost had a brain aneurysm, trying to read that short line.
But yeah, I agree.
@@declaredjeans7555they left out one comma, maybe you have a learning disability if that was hard for you to read?
A hyphen wouldn’t hurt either
It’s even funnier if he opens his phone to find out his social media person loves to sh!t on him.
That table on the left is making progress.
Sam is un-bomb-able. Not a word until now.
This is a video of him bombing
@@saltyb2363 not really, bombing is no one laughing, at least 50% are laughing

Did you do the voiceover acting for the UTI commercial that just played before this video?
I forgot to turn the sound on and thought that was the entire show.
Sam, you're my cup of tea! Can't wait to see you in Durham
The laughs seemed pretty steady throughout not exactly riotous but not bombing
Pre-pandemic, I had a movie pass, I used to do that. Just walk in a theater and watch whatever ❤
Happy New Year Sam 🎉
ah love this comic, so funny, he manages the crowd expertly
dam sam stood his ground nonstop, love to see it.
They were giving Netflix specials out at the bus station
I saw Shane Gillis at Tacoma. He didn't have a Netflix special, yet he made me laugh like a retard.
This crowd might not have liked your jokes, but as a fan, it’s hilarious
Great clip that looked fun.!!🤣Lose the hamburgler shirt though!
LOL I thought it was good. It's fun to watch you deal with the situation. Also, you were nice to me a few weeks ago on W 4th St. I admire your work, so that was a cool moment for me. Thank you :)
Gotta say loved working your sets but your looked like a french mime on a break during the last one lmao.
The Hamburglar certainly didn't bomb with his crowd work.
First! Happy new year, Sam
🏅
nah man I was first my guy
Bangerang Sam! Happy New Year!
Pirate jokes. It’s about your shirt sam. Into the boo box with ya
proper proffesional here, well done sir.
Kudos for this
Spokane, meth’d up, could not be more accurate
Dude it’s Spokane.. I thought it went well all things considered.
It’s all about the poise (and a few REALLY good jokes…)
They were probably surprised to be seeing Waldo, but if he were drawn in black and white and in a concentration camp
Haha good on you, Sam- they will for sure google the next guy before they go 😂
My older brother and I used to go to the movies and just watch whatever looked best. Until we ended up watching Angels in the Outfield and had to rethink our lifestyles.
I mean you got to see a classic
Modern classic.
Angels in the Outfield fucking rocks
Geez your bombing is my crushing it! Great set!
It's the same people at every comedy show in Spokane. The Hans Kim show had the same crowd lol
a lot of people refuse to give anything back. this applies to reactions too
This video syncs up with the dark side of the moon album and also Crocodile Dundee
Wait why am i getting recommended a video from three days ago? I’ve already seen most of the jokes from it
The magic sweater turned you into Dennis the Menace
It was a great show having been there.
That endpiece though!
crushing it bro, love to see it
This was funny af 🤣 🤘👽🔥
Sam, the Hamburglar called... he wants his sweater back. Robble, Robble.
Absolute legend
Come back to Cleveland, please!
💝
Best show yet!
Look... while I wasn't there....this felt much less "bomb". Much more "grenade" u jumped on. #doin gods work
You’re awesome man
Part of me thinks most comics are secretly hoping to find themselves in a Bill Burr Yells At All Of The Greater Philadelphia Area At 2pm On A Tuesday Outdoor Show type situation.
Sam made it entertaining for me lol
This has to be the WORST crowd ever!!!
They probably thought it was Chris Delia
When they asked why they were laughing, that made me die. Some people do not belong in comedy clubs.
He always makes me laugh
Love it. I’d be laughing and my girl would be shaking’ her head.
If THIS is what a professional comedian considers bombing, this is so much more tolerable than I thought. This can't be bombing. Either that or Sam's standards are very high for his work.

the sigh into the callback about the bus station being better, bro idk why but that fucking got me, had to pause and die laughing for a sec
Its pretty shameful when as soon as your start your set, some people are booing.
Oof. That crowd....
I want Daddy Mime to roast me
this guy is so solid
Wonderful, Sam.
They all thought he was mark Normand
This is your philly rant🤣
I enjoyed the set.
Evil where’s Waldo crushed it despite clip title
OMFG this is gold 🥇
Legend
If that’s a bomb, I should quite stand up
If the people of Spokompton don't like you your are doing something right.
Sam took the words out of my mouth when that person said “why are they laughing at that”
It’s a comedy club? What are they supposed to do?
this is very good comedy....genius I might say
It really wasn't.. You think the I know my jokes suck, so I am going to use self deprecating humor, and make fun of the crowd stuff hasn't been done a million times over?? He wasn't that funny doing it either

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sam was in an elvis video?
