Billy has a gift, I'll never get bored listen to him speak.
Goliath is a perfect role for him, massively underrated show
Such a brilliant series, can't wait to see the new one.. He is absolutely brilliant in the show.
It’s trash. Fargo was good
Why did they have to go all sci-fy in the last seasons tho?
@@andreashabeck1155 I mostly just liked the first season, I didn’t watch the others
@@andreashabeck1155 it was horrible. Hated it.
I’ve met Billy Bob at Antone’s in Austin Texas years ago . He is a kind person and very personable .
I’ve heard Stevie ray talking about Antone’s in an interview once
I saw him at Whole Foods in Austin many years ago. He was so unassuming and gave me a big smile. :)
@@lisaknudsonlcsw3730 bet he’s a charming & mischievous guy 😁
Yes, me too during SxSW in 2008. I still tell his :Billy Joe Shaver ordering 5 beers"-joke to this day.
Him in Fargo. My God. That was such stimulating performance.
Lorne Malvo was awesome!
@@julioalves8196 I envy your memory. I had forgotten the character's name. And yeah, no argument there. The scene when he tells the policeman to go back to his wife gave me chills.
Totally agree. Seen the series five times and am going to watch it again. He's sooo cool!
Luckiest, ballsiest hitman ever. Until he crosses paths with Nygaard. :D
@@lonewolf645 oh my God, yeah that one scene was cringy AF. Great acting.
Billy bob is just lovely. He's so generous to everyone. I call him an actor's actor as a compliment.
He has the most beautiful voice. Just so soothing.
Bad Santa is one of the best movies Billy ever made .. he's a genius !
I still laugh out loud watching that!😂
For me is Sling Blade.
one of the best interviews I've ever seen Billy Bob give. Shows how comfortable he is with Jimmy. Great clip.
He’s my all time favorite actor! Sling blade is a masterpiece!!
Biscuits and mustard all the way! I liked astronaut farmer a lot too, pretty much all his movies were interesting and worth watching. I thought he was real sexy in that movie with Sandra Bullock and they were the same, but working to get their politicians elected for the same position. That bald head, very confident know it all with an edge very hot! Forget the name of the movie I’ll google it in a bit.
Anytime I hear someone call a movie I've never seen or heard much about a masterpiece I get excited. I'm looking forward to checking that out, hopefully my expectations aren't set too high.
@@danp1471 Yeah, check it out. I describe "Sling Blade" as a very dark "Forrest Gump"
Love that movie! I also love Monsters Ball. It's so raw, so much tragedy packed into 90 minutes. Real life emotional problems right in your face. The suicide scene was just shocking beyond words. I literally sat there for like 10 minutes trying to compute what I had just witnessed.
@@clownchaostime3024 Heath Ledger truly nailed it. That suicide scene was like the beginning of the movie itself because after that, Billy's character starts to re-examine his attitudes.
Billy Bob is the kind of person that has lived such a diverse life, his stories are folklore.
He’s the man that everyone wants to be seated near at a dinner party.
+ Tom Waitts
he is really a slow and funny story teller
NOT.
@@fiona8781 way to bring back a really clever trend from Wayne's world. Surprised you know how to use the internet
He's so sexy looking. Then you hear his voice. And you hear his intelligence. Then you see his movies. He scares me and I love him. Man, gimme some billy bob.
Billy seems like he is in such a good place in his life right now and that makes me happy.
I could listen to him tell stories for days.
Settle down there miss (in Billy-Bob's voice)
Hi y’all from Arkansas. It is always a pleasure to see Mr. Thornton being neither proud nor ashamed of being from our beleaguered state of Arkansas. But we are unabashedly proud of him! A lovely human being and a great actor. Loved the stories of Don Knotts and Andy Griffith.
In what way is your state beleaguered ?
Heyyy! Fellow Arkansan here. Gotta love ole Billy Bob!
I used to think that being from Arkansas wasn't such a cool thing. Now I know better...
He is THE most interesting guest and Goliath is SO DAMN GOOD I'm going to miss that show
this was a really really great interview. ties to several other prominent celebrities, great inside stories, and really covers several different aspects of Thorton's life and career. rarely see this much info in a night show interview
Damn I love Billy Bob, never misses a beat. Can’t imagine the stories he has. I still go back and watch Sling Blade often, and can’t believe it’s the same dude as in Goliath and Bad Santa (favorite Xmas movie), unreal talent.
I pissed myself the first time i watched Bad Santa, it was that funny a surprise movie.
Same. Sling Blade is an awesome movie
DAM I WISH I CARED
Wish he appeared in podcasts. Such a great voice and stories.
With the fam ? Do ya'll watch Bad Santa gathered 'round during the festive season ? 😶
people don't talk nearly enough about how incredible of an actor billy is. one of the greatest of his time.
Jimmy didn't even mention that he won an Oscar for best male actor!
Finally got around to watching that Fargo tv show, Billy is the centerpiece of that whole first season~
Monsters Ball will always be one of my favorite movies,Billy was phenomenal in it.
One of the most underrated actors of our time!
Yeah. Because Academy Award winners are _underated_ ! THE most overused phrase on you tube.
Underrated? Pfft...
@@TheCazz10 Pshhh...
That’s a real person right there. No BS
Only BS during wig time
He's more interesting than the characters he plays.
Billy Bob Thornton cool as a cucumber man, one of many favorite actor all time, cool guy...he look funny, so friendly, easy going , down to earth, genuine nice guy ..love his movies....monster balls, simple plan, the bandit,, armgedon , sling blade, bad Santa, in the tv series season 1 in Fargo he was brilliant....love that show.....it was mesmerizing and his performance was great....overall Billy Bob Thornton is cool actor...
Billy Bob is such a cool guy and has a great sense of humor and definitely excellent story teller !!
For sure!
I could listen to his stories, all day! .....Love him
He comes across as a really decent kind of guy and humble.
watch his moody Q interview lol
there is an interview where they are asking him about his acting and he went ballistic coz he wants to talk about his music instead lol
@@MshAhmxiO1 That total prick that was hosting Q _deserved_ it.
@@ROOKTABULA lol how was he a prick?
he's neither but thats why we love him
He speaks so clearly and looks so composed, a good story teller too. It's nice to listen to him.
Funny, charming and down to earth!❤️ So glad you had him on!
Just finished watching GOLIATH and I’m gonna say Patty Solis-Papagian rocks pretty hard as a co-star! ❤️
I could not agree with anything more -- she is sooooo damn good. Underrated in this series! Seriously underrated.
She was epic!
She was outstanding! Hilarious!
They are an unlikely duo, but, they really really work!!!
I want more Patty Solis-Papagian!!
LOVE Billy Bob, LOVED Goliath, can't wait to see next series. This was a great interview, he seems humble and quiet, reflective almost. Brilliant man
Billy bob Thornton
The guy that’s been 60 for 30 years
Truth!
The hottest 60 I've ever seen@@amystabile7789
😂
@@carollipton4584 If you find sick addicted malnourished sexy I guess. He's creepy even Angelina was wiser, that says sumpin. There's no accounting for taste as they say. Vivre like whatever.
@@EnzoFerenczyo wow, look at the venom on you....lmao
I just love some Billy Bob Thornton. Funny guy. He has lived a very interesting life-excitement, pain, success, tragedy but still seems to be a normal, nice guy.
No he’s not a nice guy. I love his acting but he’s not nice in person.
I've never seen a movie that he was bad in. Never disappoints.
Bad Santa 1 & 2 😜
@@R-A-F lol the first one was hilarious.
Billy Bob is the funniest man. I Loved him in Bad Santa. Lol
Best B movie star ever
He was hilarious in Bandits with Bruce Willis and Kate Blanchet.
I watch it every Christmas 😂
That was a darn interesting interview, and I loved every second of it.
I Second That!
I first that
goodbye goliath
@@karenling2106 Good bye Karen. I hope you enjoyed our night together. I like your new pet name for me. Hey what would be a good cover for a romantic novel? O I know, we can ask Fabio if he can do it.
@@bluntfruntac9981 what did you mean by this comment
Man, hanging out with Billy Bob for a weekend would be one of the coolest weekends ever. The guy has been in some of the greatest movies ever made. Slingblade, Monsters Ball, Bad Santa, A Simple Plan ( which BTW he played a phenomenal part) The guy is brilliant. It's pretty cool when you meet someone who is doing exactly what they were born to do.
Love, love, love Billy Bob!! So cool and love his vibe!
He always has interesting stories to tell, and he is a great actor!!
It's been a while... Glad to see you again!! 😎🔥
Billy doesn't gaf. That's why I like him
I'm surprised hes still working w Bruce. I guess bygones are bygones
Agreed, but the fit is jacked
He gives a very big F. He is famously neurotic and has all kinds of phobias alongside an anxiety disorder.
@@sharondianneb Maybe Bruce isn't a very protective father or maybe he has the same cruel cheating history so he can't judge.
I think he gives many F's.
He has a beautiful smile
Billy is a freaking rock star.
well, he's a movie star with a cover band.
Is that's why he is dressed like Kieth Richards?
I've always known what Angelina Jolie saw in Billy Bob. He is so freaking cool.
Yes, the question is what HE saw in her?!
Bet he's great in the clinches. The little dudes can bring it.🎉🎉r
BILLY BOB THORNTON SO GREAT HERE ON JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE !!!
Love his voice. ❤
What a smile, can’t tell his age either ❤️
Ya, he looks good for 66.
So 🔥
Nice. I picked the same outfit when a new girl came to school and I wanted her to know that Im a mysterious guy who is really cool once she gets to know me without telling her. Junior high was a confusing time.
😃 I take it didn't workout that well?
🤣🤣🤣
😂How did it work out for you?
Either that or an RnB singer, maybe she missed the message?
So the chains I get. You wear a lot of different types so that you can show off that you own a lot of Hot Topic jewelry.
And the sleeveless shirt is because you're roleplaying as Mac from Always Sunny where you cut the sleeves off all your shirts.
And the all-black is to try to convince others you're a brooding emo goth chick.
But what's the deal with the head bandage?
He's a helluva storyteller
It is his job after all.
Goliath was a great show for Billy, but his work in Fargo season 01 was his best. Just a fantastic talent that only comes around not that often. I'm not one for fantasizing about meeting stars, but he's one I would like to meet and have a beer with.
Check out his interview with Norm MacDonald
I concur. Fargo season one was awesome! Also, to this day, I can't see Billy Bob in Slingblade. His character was just too good.
Kinda wish he was in American gods cuz he would of made a good one
Fargo season one brought me to wanting to learn more about him! His role was fantastic.
What a great voice. Love Billy Bob
Loved every second of this interview.
OMG! I remember Club Lingerie. And the Cat and the Fiddle. It was my regular rotation, too! Loved those places. Good times. Thanks for the memories, Billy Bob!
He is looking great :) such a fun interview Well done to you both Cheers!
The Don Notts episode reminds me of a group of friends I had back in the 80s and one of the girls was 90% blind. Another girl took her to meet her mother and our friend had warned her that this girl she was bringing over was blind. After introducing her, mum comes to within two millimetres of her face and say, in a very loud voice, “WOULD YOU LIKE A CUP OF TEA, LUV?” and my friend says, thanks, that’d be lovely, but I’m blind, not deaf!”
Billy Bob seems like the coolest guy you would ever meet.
He is!
What a savagely cool dude. I would pay good money to grab a beer with him.
That smile!!
I never heard of Goliath before. I just started watching it and WOW....this is great show. This show needed much more exposure. It got me hooked after 1 episode.
Love Billy Bob. Great story teller and actor.
If you know Billy Bob you know his range but have you seen him in the movie U Turn? Hang on tight, it's one of his best roles.
Great movie
He gained 50 pounds for his role in that movie. That was one helluva performance.👏
@@neilsingh5923 And a helluva mechanic.
@@FrankBenlin Especially when he says "When I work on a car, I work on a car". Then Sean Penn is just literally losin' it....lol😄
@@neilsingh5923 "Well you need to be more careful." Poor Sean, he got torn up and all because of a radiator hose. A good lesson in the importance of regular auto maintenance. I have to go watch it again now.
His character in fargo is remarkable
Val Kilmer: Oh, Johnny, i apologize..i forgot you were there…you may go now,😄Thanks Billy for all your work, you are one of the greatest!
Wow. What a seriously incredible human. I already knew I was a fan of his movies but this interview just took my respect for him, to a whole different level.
Not really considering he physically abused one of his former wives in front of their children.
@@tyronjohnson78 Yeah. Well. I formally used to be an active alcoholic, but on October 6th I’ll be 2 years sober. People can change. I’ll always believe that to be a possibility. So yes. I’ll say it again. He’s an incredible human NOW.
The movie he made with Andy Griffith is called Daddy and Them. Its awesome. John Prine is in it as well
Whoa!! Will have to check that one out.
I am a big John Prine fan as well as Billy Bob but I have to say I just didn't find the magic in that movie at all. It let me down, sad to say.
He is awesome!
That was WAY too short! .... Billy Bob's stories are MESMERISING!
I had no idea this season would be out on Friday. Finished it a few hours ago, glad they were able to end on a high note
Sometimes i find interviews like this boring but I cannot be bored with this guy. Adore him, he reminds me of my god dad.
I hope he writes a book someday that would be great. Listening to him tell about Don Knots not being able to see reminded me of a patient I had that couldn't talk, so I raised my voice when speaking to him, he had his friend remind me he couldn't speak, but his hearing was fine!
He did write a book several years ago. It’s called “The Billy Bob Tapes: A Cave Full of Ghosts.
@@msdixiepearl.Good.
That's Big Pharma for ya.
The Beatles song where Ringo taps on a matchbox is "I'm Looking Through You".
Great song!
Few occasions like this occur, when the host allow the guest to talk and develop the stories with only minor intervention. That's what we want, hear the star/guest.
Jimmy is a great interviewer❤
Yeah, what??? Jimmy always allows his guests to speak
Watching Goliath. He never disappoints.
Why is Billy Bob Thornton dressed like Ja Rule in 2002?
2002 is back in style.
Get with the times.
God knows, he should stay out of his children's closets.
@@gaggita9922 that's sad
@@gaggita9922 you're not wrong, young women are wearing horrible mom jeans
Lol 😂
I saw The Boxmasters in Indianapolis back in August. My friend was playing lead guitar on the tour. Great show!
“Daddy and Them”! One of the GREATEST movies - that no one has ever heard of.
Can’t unsee him as Malvo
Such a honest ( not hiding, he's not perfect) ,cool guy. Good story teller. Thank you. 🙂
Absolutely right ✅
My name is Andy and once Barney Fife himself came into the downtown SF luxury store where I worked (men's accessories) and walked up to my counter, looked at my name tag, paused and said in that awesome voice of his, "Hey Andy!" I died. Nice guy.
I binged watched the first 3 seasons of Goliath when I had Covid in 2020, haha. It really helped get me though! Sad to see it go! Stoked for the last season though!
My dude looks like he walked out of a Diddy video from the 90z 😂
I never really liked him but after watching Goliath I have a new respect. He's awesome, very talented!!
Always been up in the air about him, awesome interview made himself very likable
I would love to go for a couple beers with billy bob.
Delightful man.
Billy having a Johnny Drama moment with Andy Griffith lolol
Most coolest actor alive .
Awesome actor
Such a sweet man with such a dry sense of humor , I love this guy and his movies...
Billy Bob is the real deal.
Great stories, this dude is so chill
I love Goliath! Sad it's the final season... Such a great show!
Billy bob great actor and Director my favorite is sling blade and bad Santa and tombstone
Love Billy Bob.... best actor ever ❤️🙌🙌🙌
Legend
I love me some Billy Bob.
I love his voice. Contains all the charismatic menace of Lorne Malvo.
What is completely freaking me out, is the fact as he tells the tales of his Matlock days, my mom is in her bedroom LITERALLY binge watching that very show! 😳 📺
How creepy it would be if one of his episodes was playing as I was watching this post! 😱
What’s Matlock?
@@no1nestandsalone387 forgettable 70s night soap with (surprise) Andy Griffith as a South Cackalacky Defense Attorney who's discovery skillz bring the oohs and ahhhs
I just finished watching Goliath season 4. Excellent show! I loved it and am sad to see it finish. Billy Bob is a good actor, they all are on Goliath, casting did a good job.
He is a lovely guy
Cat & The Fiddle was my go to back in the day.
love BBT, love Goliath, love Andy G and Mayberry! Great interview!
Billy Bob Rocks!
I loved the Andy / Don story must look up his guest appearance and movie ❤
Coolest and nicest guy I've seen on any show and talented!!!
