I know man, but she does a fake happy voice so much on the show, even when she's being actually nice part of me gets creeped out 😅 Guess you can call that another testament to her acting abilities...
I think that has to do with the fact that she is obviously an intelligent woman. Let's face it a lot of the actors that come on his show are not the top of the barrel as far as intellect
Lee Gary she's not "pure evil" .. why do you think June asked her to be the Godmother of the baby? In some sick kind of way she really does care about those girls the handmaids and the babies. I guess we all have our own definitions of Pure Evil but to meet your evil would be someone like Ramsay Bolton in Game of Thrones or even that recent case with Jennifer Rosenbaum complete psychopath
@@lauracatherine9925 When did June ask her to be her baby's Godmother? She made her promise to make sure she's safe at the Waterfords', but that's about it.
yeah i might be mixing up the scene, I just know in the same episode she asked the martha to be the babys godmother, she asked lydia to protect the baby, but i believe lydia mentions she was a godmother at some point
@@lauracatherine9925 Yes, June asks her if she's a godmother to someone, to nudge her into understanding what she is asking of her. Lydia answers that she was the godmother to her sister's son I think?
@@lauracatherine9925 i see that this is from a year ago 💀 hopefully after watching her BEAT THE SHIT out of jeanine you've changed your mind. cuz i know i have. 👁💧👄💧👁
Who else was smiling this whole video? Can you imagine her being the absolute sweetest thing (like she clearly is) and then having to pull out that darkness in her acting? It must be a real shock to her co-stars and it seems like she'd apologize immediately. She needs to come back. We need more of her positive energy.
Look for the interview she did alongside Everyone's Favorite Character Actress, Margo Martindale. Never mind, here it is: www.vulture.com/2017/06/ann-dowd-margo-martindale-conversation.html
@Charlie Al has an Irish twang alright, but she's probably got the accent somewhere within the family anyway, Dowd is an Irish name, knew a few nuns that talked a lot like her, but acted like Aunt Lydia. No jokes.
What a lovely lady. Usually I don´t believe the guests in their gratitude - it feels like acted / pretended for me. But her I believed everything. I hope she gets more recognition.
jrfraukar The fact that it's her first late night interview makes her even more endearing. She's on there totally being herself. I was a huge fan of The Leftovers, which she co-starred in, and her performance was perfection. It's nice to see a woman of a particular age, who had been fairly unknown, being recognized for nothing more than being exceptional actor.
She's cute as a button!! I can't at all see Aunt Lydia in her... it must be the makeup. But even her natural voice is different from Aunt Lydia's. That's crazy good acting. Ironically, she seems like the sweet "aunt" that you'd go to when mom says no.
It shows her raw & refined acting ability. You're spot on how tricky it is to envision Aunt L in this interview. She deserves all the accolades..... she's so down to Earth, too.
Same here😭 when I saw her on Masters of Sex as the protagonist's mother I got scared again immediately. But of course that's a different character & she played that beautifully as well. A talented, brilliant actor indeed❤️
Such a genuine and brilliant light, this magnetic woman. How she talks *directly* to host and audience as if we're all just sitting around the den. With this much charisma, let's be glad she's using her powers for good.
She was brilliant in The Leftovers and also now in Handmaids Tale. What a delightful person, so talented and so truly humble! It's so nice to see her getting recognition, she deserves it ❤️
I have been binging the show all weekend (I'm in season 3), and she is incredible. A total monster most of the time, but laced with moments of patience, understanding, and caring. It's a testament to her acting that you can't not hate her character.
How the HECK can this lovely women be Aunt Lydia, the most hated women I've ever seen on TV??? I loath that character for what it represents. And I see her...what a great actress to make me believe in her character when she is totally so different. Well played, Madam. You would have given Merrily Streep a run for her money.
plot twist its the other way around, she's a good actress because she pretends to be lovely woman in real life, in movies she's just being herself? XD j/k
Simply because she is a titanically talented actress. She makes the transformation look effortless. Total "A League" of actors - even if she isn't as famous/a celebrity as the Hollywood leads
Two very lovely people. That statement about grief, "living in the world of pretending" that your story is the same as everyone else. It's so true and beautifully stated.
I have this interview saved, and have watched it about four or five times now, and it still remains one of my absolute favorite interviews Stephen has ever done. She's so lovely, and wonderful, and such an extraordinary storyteller. It is shocking to know that inside her brilliant acting mind, the character of Aunt Lydia lives. Keep up the amazing work, Ann Dowd. Your talent is out of this world.
I was so happy that she won her Emmy that I didn't even mind that it wasn't for her AMAZING portrayal on "The Leftovers". I just want to hug Ann Dowd. I believe she has a healing touch. Even her voice is so soothing.
Ann Dowd is an absolute treasure! It was so wonderful to see her on her inaugural late night talk show appearance. Please bring her back, Stephen. Next time dig into her B’way experience.
She's evil as hell she stole my son his name is trust she called ACs on me because she needed money so she could pay for her Oscar award her Oscar nominee crossed her 23,000 look it up my name is Cheryl
The Handmaid's cast are such a nice group of people and talented actors. The difference between their roles and them in real life is so striking. Aunt Lydia and Serena Joy are so cold but Ann and Yvonne are such sweet people.
She is amazing. She was also on a show called the leftovers and she was so insane in that show. (Literally she played a functional crazy person) She is just such a compelling actress. Deserved every bit of that Emmy.
Such a genuine person. You can tell when she speaks and in her facial expressions that she really is thankful and happy to be there. I hope we see more in movies and TV, she definitely deserves it!
I'm POSITIVE everyone from any first world nation can access any episode they want to online.... Find one of the thousands of sites dedicated to having every movie & show you could ever want to watch. Just make sure you have the ad blockers & virus blockers on, lol
Oh my, what a profound interview. In just a few sentences, she tells a story as if it were a literary classic. Excellent!! I love intimate interviews like these, so compelling. Stephen and LSSC, you must have her on again soon. She’s also wonderfully terrifying in ‘A Handmaid’s Tale.’
Unreal how she plays some of the scariest of female characters in The Handmaid’s Tale and The Leftovers, and then in real life she’s just the sweetest person with no ego! Great actress 👏🏻
She's even more scarier in real life she called ACs on me and took my son his name is trust she's the most evilest person that I ever want to meet she lives on 28th Street she's evil as hell
I can't believe this is the same person who played Patti in The Leftovers. That's the sign of a true actor, being able to disappear into a role like that.
First time I have heard of her, and I am so inspired by her. 2 minutes into the interview and I am in awe of her...she is so genuine, touching upon being true to oneself and the intensity of grief...
Ann is a wonderful actress. She has one of those mezmerising voices. Her voice reminds me so much of Esther Hick's voice, even the tone and pauses are almost identical.
I keep coming back to this interview again and again and again... there's something so sweet about it. She's a fantastic story teller en she's just so enchanting to watch and to listen to.
I saw her years ago guesting on Law & Order and never forgot her. And considering how many guest actors have been on that show over the decades (maybe a dozen per episode), that is definitely saying something.
She’s one helluvan actress. The more I see of her work, the more I’m blown away by how Fantastic she is. (Strange how Hollywood celebrates mediocrity, while actresses like Her show what Real acting is.) Great interview... :-)
Everytime I see her interviewed or accepting an award she seems like the sweetest person on the planet. I've invested in two series (The Leftovers and The Handmaids Tale) where she plays a horrible character in both. It is amazing how good she is at it.
I don't recall ever seeing her before in anything but will definitely have to check out The Handmaids Tale as she strikes me as an amazing person and actor.
She was just on my mind. I had recently binge watched the first season of The Leftovers and had been very impressed with her. I'll have to check out the Handmaiden's Tale. Congratulations on the award!
What a brilliant interview. Stephen just let Ann Dowd talk, that's really refreshing and he engaged with her. A lot of talk shows don't do that. Truly lovely.
Ann Dowd is just delightful. What a lovely, gentle woman. Proof, if proof were needed, that her work on The Handmaid's Tale was so deserving of that Emmy. Because the character she plays - and, boy, does she play it well - is reprehensible. A fierce, fierce talent.
I hated her the most and wished ill on her at every episode, but watching this gives me chills and huge uncontrollable smiles and good feelings. She has to be emotionally super smart to play super evil
Omg what a beautiful human being she is. I smiled the whole interview and I love how Colbert practically did the same thing, you can see him just smiling and intently listening. She had us all feeling warm and happy with her very human qualities- and to be so talented as well. What a lovely woman. ♥️
I’ve never seen her act, only just now have I first seen her talking to Colbert, and what an absolutely charming, intelligent, sensitive, warm and funny woman! I am so happy for her!
She's such a monster in the series and yet so sweet in real life.
Really sweet. Would love to hang out with her.
a true mark of an incredible actress!
Gui Porto how is it possible? 😂
I know man, but she does a fake happy voice so much on the show, even when she's being actually nice part of me gets creeped out 😅 Guess you can call that another testament to her acting abilities...
Ikr, I can't believe that's Aunt Lydia, I just can't!
How can someone so scary on screen be so utterly delightful off screen? She truly more than deserved that Emmy
Emily N. She’s also just incredible in The Departed, as another fearsome, unforgettable character.
She's unbelievable . In the handmaids tail and the leftovers she plays such crazy characters yet she's so lovely
She horrified me this past Wednesday. OMG when she rang the bell.
Hopefully, you saw her on The Leftovers. Her character, Patty, was off-the-rails, batshit nuts.
Oh yes, as Aunt Lydia she looks absolutely hideous, but here, such a beautiful lady! And the Emmy story - hilarious!
FINALLY a late night host who let her talk for more than 60 seconds without interrupting her
Stephen Colbert without the adrenachrome cloud
I think that has to do with the fact that she is obviously an intelligent woman. Let's face it a lot of the actors that come on his show are not the top of the barrel as far as intellect
No wonder she got the emmy, a woman that insanely sweet and kind pulling out that much pure evil? I mean, oh my god that's insane

Yvonne Strahovski has mentioned how she has compulsively apologized after finishing a scene as Mrs. Waterford.
me
I've never seen or heard of her before, but she's an amazing storyteller. I could do with a longer interview.
Same Now I want to see the show just to see more of her. She seems so 'non celebrity'.
Right? She's just living, regardless of what anyone else expects of her.
Look for the interview she did alongside Everyone's Favorite Character Actress, Margo Martindale. Never mind, here it is: www.vulture.com/2017/06/ann-dowd-margo-martindale-conversation.html
She is lovely...so wonderful in The Handmaid's Tale. A beautiful, gracious lady who deserves all the success in the world.
I agree 마이클
I love how she speaks... i love her...
Her voice is so soothing. It makes me feel calm
YESSSS
What is that accent she has, pretty ?
She sounds like Abraham Hicks, so soothing 😊
@Charlie Al has an Irish twang alright, but she's probably got the accent somewhere within the family anyway, Dowd is an Irish name, knew a few nuns that talked a lot like her, but acted like Aunt Lydia. No jokes.

On god. Aunt Lydia is so frightening lmao
You think she’s good in Handmaid, watch The Leftovers.
@@megalomaniac4134 Good call. That show was amazing.
I completely forgot she was in that! 😮
@@polarfroge she made that show for me. I mean everyone was amazing, but she stole every scene she was in.
She oozes warmth and humanity. What a wonderful lady.
yeah she plays monsters in hereditary and handmaids tale.
She has to try to win you over, since her character is despicable.
Need more storytellers like her on late night. Stephen loves it.
She scared me in Handmaid's Tale. She was so good.
Breeze Incognito yeah right, totally ! So scary in this show ! So it shows how much she is talented ! She has skills in acting.
Forget the handmaid's tale check her out in the leftovers. Look for the Pattie well death scene.
Same here😭 when I saw her on Masters of Sex as the protagonist's mother I got scared again immediately. But of course that's a different character & she played that beautifully as well. A talented, brilliant actor indeed❤️
That entire series is terrifying.
The more I see Ann Dowd, the more I need her in my life.
Troy Kawahara She's adorable and she played two horrible despicable characters on The Leftovers and Handmaid's
Yessssss!!!
She's just so lovely! Such a talented actress to be able to play such a monster.
She's a great story teller...
couldn't agree more !
She really is. I wanted an hour talk with her. So much wisdom and normalcy with that woman. Ugh, I'm in love
Such a genuine and brilliant light, this magnetic woman. How she talks *directly* to host and audience as if we're all just sitting around the den. With this much charisma, let's be glad she's using her powers for good.

I hate the character so much, but love her as an actress. Any time she shows up in the Handmaids Tale, I am terrified. She is a wonderful person.
Good writing + good acting! It’s an amazing show/
She was literally so iconic in the Handmaid's Tale, and that role was made FOR HER.
She is a treasure. Her brilliance in The Handmaid's Tale is just a teaser for her astonishing role in The Leftovers.
A Jurinic Right on. I feel the Leftovers role prepped her very well.
How the HECK can this lovely women be Aunt Lydia, the most hated women I've ever seen on TV??? I loath that character for what it represents. And I see her...what a great actress to make me believe in her character when she is totally so different. Well played, Madam. You would have given Merrily Streep a run for her money.

Simply because she is a titanically talented actress. She makes the transformation look effortless. Total "A League" of actors - even if she isn't as famous/a celebrity as the Hollywood leads
@@avitalgoldin2225 I feel like Patty Levin is far more likable than Aunt Lydia.
What a delightful human being!
Ikr!
Two very lovely people. That statement about grief, "living in the world of pretending" that your story is the same as everyone else. It's so true and beautifully stated.

I was so happy that she won her Emmy that I didn't even mind that it wasn't for her AMAZING portrayal on "The Leftovers".
I just want to hug Ann Dowd. I believe she has a healing touch. Even her voice is so soothing.
Delightful, sweet, talented, humble. She's an all around wonderful human being! If you haven't seen her in THE LEFTOVERS, fix that. 🙏
She was in that? The leader of that chain smoking cult that always wore white?
Justin M Yes, indeed she was! Patti Levin, leader of the Guilty Remnants.
You people are crazy, she was a senator in that series
She's a definition of delightful 😊😊😊
She was amazing in the Leftovers!
One of the best shows ever made and she was fantastic in it!
She was so great that even though she didn't appear in most of the series, the writers and director gave the second to last episode as a gift to her
She'll forever be Patti Levin to me, first and foremost.
She said in an interview that she channeled Bill Belichick for the role of Patty
And the handmaid's tale
Ann Dowd is an absolute treasure! It was so wonderful to see her on her inaugural late night talk show appearance. Please bring her back, Stephen. Next time dig into her B’way experience.
She sucks she stole my son his name is Trust
i wish nothing but the best for this incredible human being.
She's evil as hell she stole my son his name is trust she called ACs on me because she needed money so she could pay for her Oscar award her Oscar nominee crossed her 23,000 look it up my name is Cheryl
How the heck is she so humble and so talented? I mean every performance of hers is utterly awesome

Just like Kathy Bates. Gorgeous and incredibly nice off screen but can pull off a character like Aunt Lydia on screen. Impressive.
Such a genuine person. You can tell when she speaks and in her facial expressions that she really is thankful and happy to be there. I hope we see more in movies and TV, she definitely deserves it!
What a wonderful human being, and actress!
Ms Dowd's description of the feeling when your child is born gave me emotional whiplash -- I'll be smiling all day!
Oh my God - she’s wonderful. I’ve just discovered her and I could listen/watch her forevermore. She’s utterly lovely.
4:49 "oh the gentleman was me!". gotta love Stephen
_"The Handmaid's Tale_ is on Hulu."
Ah. Hulu. Not Netflix. Okay. That's a refreshing change.
if your in Canada you can watch it on Bravo
HBO has it too. Well, the Nordic vision has it
Sure, for Americans. I've been forced to steal the show instead of pay for it because of that. Fuck Hulu.
In the UK, we're 4 episodes behind.😠
I'm POSITIVE everyone from any first world nation can access any episode they want to online.... Find one of the thousands of sites dedicated to having every movie & show you could ever want to watch. Just make sure you have the ad blockers & virus blockers on, lol
Wow, she's an absolute mood
She is just LOVELY!

She plays Aunt Lydia in The Testaments on Audible
Such a wonderful actress and a beautiful lady, thank you for following your heart....!!!!!
Can I listen to her all day?
This was such a delightful interview, she has a very warm personality
What a beautiful interview. Such a lovely person.

this lady's gravitas is off the charts. what a tour de force.
She is a treasure! Her portrayal of Aunt Lydia is profound. She deserves every accolade!
I keep coming back to this interview again and again and again... there's something so sweet about it. She's a fantastic story teller en she's just so enchanting to watch and to listen to.
What a lovely, poised, and humble woman!
She’s doing a flawless job at The Handmaid’s tale. So severe and so sweet at the same time. I love her soothing voice, as well!
I saw her years ago guesting on Law & Order and never forgot her. And considering how many guest actors have been on that show over the decades (maybe a dozen per episode), that is definitely saying something.
Ann is so kind, and talented! I love her work. She was great in Hereditary too.
She’s one helluvan actress. The more I see of her work, the more I’m blown away by how Fantastic she is. (Strange how Hollywood celebrates mediocrity, while actresses like Her show what Real acting is.) Great interview... :-)

I would really love to be around. That kind of thoughtfulness and humility and kindness can't be faked. She's absolutely lovely.
This woman is an amazing actress and seems like such a wonderful human being.

She is excellent in Hereditary! Great actress!
hail paimon - LOL - she is a spectacular actress.... I love her
Her voice is beautiful and the way she can make it frightening as Aunt Lydia speaks to her amazing talent and skill. Brava!
What a wonderful surprise of a human. Lovely storyteller.
Omg what a lovely lady, she's so kind and thoughtful. Wholesome
Wish my orgo (organic chemistry) prof was that honest -would have saved me thousands of dollars and years of struggle
Yikes.
Maybe it wasn't that he was not honest, maybe more like he didn't have the insight and intuition that hers did.
I honestly thought I was going to HATE her. But she is everything! And so beautiful! What an amazing actress!
She's fantastic!
Her voice is so beautiful. She really does transform into her roles. Whislt she's great in HT, I love love loved her in The Leftovers.
Bruh she's so freakin scary in The Handmaid's Tale, this woman scared me to death in that show. But she's so sweet and lovely in real life.
I can listen to her all day.
She's delightful.
Ann Dowd is just delightful. What a lovely, gentle woman. Proof, if proof were needed, that her work on The Handmaid's Tale was so deserving of that Emmy. Because the character she plays - and, boy, does she play it well - is reprehensible. A fierce, fierce talent.
Also...loved her in Garden State! She's a wonderful character actor.
She’s an amazing actress, it makes the show so much more intense how well she plays the character
Such a graceful lovely lady!
What a lovely warm storyteller.
I hated her the most and wished ill on her at every episode, but watching this gives me chills and huge uncontrollable smiles and good feelings. She has to be emotionally super smart to play super evil
Omg what a beautiful human being she is. I smiled the whole interview and I love how Colbert practically did the same thing, you can see him just smiling and intently listening. She had us all feeling warm and happy with her very human qualities- and to be so talented as well. What a lovely woman. ♥️
Ann Dowd is such a gem 💙
She has a very eloquent way of speaking; it's quite nice to listen to. That reaction to the award win was so sweet too.
I LOVE this woman. She killed it in The Leftovers.
I’ve never seen her act, only just now have I first seen her talking to Colbert, and what an absolutely charming, intelligent, sensitive, warm and funny woman! I am so happy for her!
