TokyoKazama Russle just called me and he said he is so happy that you have been following his stuff since the early days, he also asked if you know where did he leave his retainer in 5th grade?
+TokyoKazama i know ive watched all seasons of good news too and even his face is different, his cheekbones or lines on the side of the face are more apparent and hes a lot hotter ;)
Russell Howard is my favourite comedian! I seen him live in Glasgow and I have never laughed so hard in my life. Cannot recommend his gigs anymore. He's so funny!
He's very charismatic with or without those muscles ..actually it's a common narcissistic drift that sooner or later these tv personalities face and it's a bit sad.
+Jolandatommy I believe him to be brilliant domestically and personality wise but it's hard to not notice the change he's gone through. However I agree that it shouldn't out shine his talent which made me like him to start
nothing more relevant to comedy than getting buff... I've noticed that almost every positive comment on this video is a female lol. Says a lot for his comedy.
Love Russell Howard so much. I'm currently having to hold in laughter Coz it's the middle of the night and every one else is asleep. So I'm slowly dyei.......
Sometimes you don't realize you have a thing for arms and then you see Russell Howard and you're kinda like "oh. ok. That's something I did not know about myself"
+sarah borrink yah I've seen his DVDs + good news and there is a definite difference as the years go but I agree that his humor out weighs his impressive muscles
He's going on a world tour now called "Russell Howard - Round the World". He's gone from tiny rooms to game shows to concert halls and arenas, then national tours and now he's gone international! He's only about 34! He's massive!!!
That was absolutely hilarious. I love Russell Howard I have done for a couple of years now and I think it's amazing and brilliant that he has reached the states as it's not that often you see British comedians on American TV shows 😁
I've seen Russell on every single one of his tours and I belly laugh every single time. He's so, so good. I'm glad he's trying out the US, hope it all works out for him!
I have no words for how much I love this man xD The fact he comes from the same city as me makes me proud ♥ So glad he's managed to get across the pond!
Yes!!!! A thousand times yes!!! He's absolutely hilarious, couldn't stop laughing... Rooting that he does well and gets big in America, very refreshing.
i love russell howard so mcuh u have no idea, since mock the week and russell howards good news i have watched all his work i seriously love him u have no idea
***** have you actually met an American, or have you just met a few and decided they represented us as a whole? I love how people stereotype us. It's hilarious.
Dresden Pierce I'm not judging one person, I'm judging the whole country by what I see. and I know well enough about the things that you (as a country) consider to be okay to know that Frankie would be illegal by law before he'd finish his show.
Dresden Pierce No, she's right. Americans and British people have very different humour. Frankie would be killed before he leaves the gig. I think he might actually be banned from BBC. That's how bad some of his jokes are.
I know British comics try to break America to get more money, that's the only reason to do anything really.. but when you have to dumb down your acts like Jimmy Carr did and have non-swear words bleeped out, it's just ridiculous and isn't worth ruining your reputation for. I wasn't really a big fan of Russell anyway, I watch "Good News" every now and then but he's better than this.
I've heard him tell the same jokes to an English audience and they were hilarious. Sounds to me like he had to change them to make them a little more, uh, palatable to a US audience. Shame, because I appreciate the originals more. But then again, I tend not to find many American comedians very funny at all, so maybe they feel the same about Brit comedians.

Russell Howard is an ultimate lad, love him. Pure comedy genius.
Please never say 'lad' again.
Whatsgoingoninmycrib
Please shut the fuck up
😂😂😂😂😂
Whatsgoingoninmycrib please shut the fuck up
Wtf man, don't diss English people, we have bare words that we'd use and I don't give a fuck if you don't like them 😂
Proof right here that Americans dunno how to speak lad properly
I've been following Russels stuff since the early days of Mock the Week, that guy has definitely been hitting the gym. Damn!
Lol I was thinking the same thing!

I saw him live to in Glasgow he is one of my favourite comedians 😂
i went to his school in bristol and met him there when he came back absolute legend
Lewis Quinn aye i live there too lol
I love how buff Russell has got since Mock the Week *woop to British*
Dem gainz do

Women like to objectify men.
Britain has the best comedians.
True
Scottish ones are hilarious
You probably know comedians from leas than 15 countries and say britain has the best?
Francisco Gobbi it’s just a point of view, not a fact, may look it, but it’s not
James acaster, Jimmy Carr, Sean Locke, Jon Richardson those are my favorites. I'm sure there's more that I just forgot and left out
Russell's mum deserve her own show, too x)
It's refreshing and new to see a Brit break America. Never happens.
***** What about James Corden?
It was sarcasm. America is full of Brits haha
Avalon I'm so glad that you've got to deal with that muppet now. Can't fucking stand Corden.
stevethos I don't have to deal with him now. I'm English
***** Edit: You Yanks never did manage to master sarcasm...especially in written form.
so cool to see him getting noticed in the states now too, genuinely an amazing guy, so so funny as well xD
I LOVE RUSSELL HOWARD OMG IVE WATCHED HIM FOR SO LONG OMG XD
Omg
MiisterShane what??????
Kat Wright oh my god
***** omg XD
Kat Wright i need all the subtitles!!!!
Love Russell Howard so much. I'm currently having to hold in laughter Coz it's the middle of the night and every one else is asleep. So I'm slowly dyei.......
I know the feeling my friend I know that feeling XD
angel alderson Hahahaha
Now that's how the UK does comedy. It was hilarious!
Sometimes you don't realize you have a thing for arms and then you see Russell Howard and you're kinda like "oh. ok. That's something I did not know about myself"
Especially if you've seen his DVDs. The difference is VERY noticeable. Personally, I love his wonderful sense of humor way more than how he looks.
+sarah borrink yah I've seen his DVDs + good news and there is a definite difference as the years go but I agree that his humor out weighs his impressive muscles
just as i was swooning over his arms i saw this comment i just about died
YAAAAASSSSSS. He's also brainy which I love.
I have always loved Russell Howard's good news
Wow he's on us now awesome! Great to see Russell on there, crazy from mock the week to his own show and now on the tonight show
PaulPlaysMinecraft could you plz offer the subtitles of this video to me ?
I know he's doing well for himself
+易天叶 its not that hard to understand him
+PaulPlaysMinecraft Look at John Oliver.
Lazy Spark Yeah they are doing good
WHAT WHEN DID HIS ARMS GET SO HOT
Ikr 💪🏻
+Annabel Marie thanks, i try.
He sucks balls.
IKR 😍😍😍
Annabel Marie I've been asked myself the same question
I'd never thought I'd LIVE to see the day the Somerset accent is on American television haha
+BlackearacheXD Just watch any american tv show with pirates ;3
+BlackearacheXD Somerset? You'll start a war. ;-) Russell is Brizzle through and through.
Very impressive that he was able to write material that worked well in both America and the UK. There's been so many comedians that couldn't do that.
So good!!
Not really
+Connor Hartman Yes really
Play on the seas yo yo honey singh the Gangnam style
I feared for his life 4:05he's quite accident prone especially with stools
+TCt83067695 I did the exact same thing. All I could think was 'My God, the broken wrist incident is going to happen again' lol.
+TCt83067695 OMG yes
Good News?
Omg I love this!! Why is Jimmy Fallon having a whole line up of the best British Comics?
Russell Howard is the best. I always end up crying from laughter when watching good news
Love Russell, so happy he's on there, such a lad xD
He's going on a world tour now called "Russell Howard - Round the World". He's gone from tiny rooms to game shows to concert halls and arenas, then national tours and now he's gone international! He's only about 34! He's massive!!!
+Becky Boulton Murrr!
+ursuiry 😂😂
I'm going to see him in San Francisco In May (2017). He's my favorite British comedian. He's adorable too.
Yeah, I'm gonna see him in March 2017 in Nottingham. To say that I'm excited is an understatement!
First Jimmy Carr, now Russel Howard?! I'm loving this Brit Invasion :3
This was 8 months ago
+__RjAzrl my thoughts exactly...
he's shit though.
Explain your reasoning.
rockmonst3r just saying both those are English and Jimmy Carr is shit
I swear to god he is one of the funniest men alive.
Now get Frankie Boyle on here. For the reactions alone I'd pay to see him...
Max Marriott If an american talkshow booked Frankie, I'd want them to point the cameras exclusively at the audience.
+Max Marriott yes Frankie Boyle, what a fucking legend.
+Max Marriott If they put Frankie on American TV, it'd be so full of bleeps that half the jokes would be lost.
+Max Marriott if they put frankie on american tv his voice would sound like Morse code XD
+Max Marriott trouble is Americans don't know who Jimmy Savile is, so his joke(s) would be lost on 'em
I can tell this guy is awesome by his t-shirt
Lex ClemityClemClemmersons I can tell you're awesome by your profile pic.
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 HEYO
Lex ClemityClemClemmersons The strokes?
spacepod100 hell yeah
My first thought exactly! Then he went on to be hilarious, as well.
Like your screen pic, man.
sorry...but when did that boy off mock the week get arms like THAT????!!!!
+xsammyx101x This was exactly what I thought hahahaha
xsammyx101x those are considered impressive arms?
Jose Perez yes ma'am those are considered delightful lengths of muscle sinew
xsammyx101x huh. Doesn't take much then
When you've heard this joke from Russell before... Still fucking hilarious though
RUSSELL HOWARD??? JIMMY FALLON??? Did I die and go to heaven?
This was the best stand up routine I've seen on this channel! Genuinely had me in tears!
He's right....you never get "whoops" in the UK. It's so weird watching him with an overly responsive audience.
3:44 -Have you not seen the tea consent video? 😂
Chloe C I saw that. My friends and I ran around shouting stuff from it at each other. 😂
The audience didn't seem to understand British humour
iiAssassin4K They're American.
duh.
well done for figuring that out
iiAssassin4K seems like a fake laugh
Catherine Pundmann nah. You weren't trying to figure out where you've seen him before and actually listened to em
iiAssassin4K yes our humour usually involves wit, irony & sarcasm with a deadpan delivery which americans dont really get
That was absolutely hilarious. I love Russell Howard I have done for a couple of years now and I think it's amazing and brilliant that he has reached the states as it's not that often you see British comedians on American TV shows 😁
I would say put Dara O Brian on if not for the fact he has a very thick accent
Are you thinking of a different guy cause the dara I've seen only has a slight accent
Which Dara are you talking about?
+Mercutio o'brein , the one who does mock the week, but maybe I just don't notice accent that much because I'm a Londoner
+Not Worth Your Time idk even though I understand him fine I would've thought Americans wouldn't have been able to
Mercutio imagine frankie😂
I love Russell so much
Handle Russell Howard with care 'Murica, he is a fucking national treasure, FOR QUEEN AND COUNTRY.
So great to see Russell getting American exposure!!
I've seen Russell on every single one of his tours and I belly laugh every single time. He's so, so good. I'm glad he's trying out the US, hope it all works out for him!
Omg I love the strokes 😊
Love Russell Howard! One of the funniest comedians there is!! True Brit
That merrr reference is from the Carry On films. Ohhhh Matron ;)
So happy for him right now it's unreal! so proud of you russell!
Is Russell breaking America‽ :O
Yes he's on Comedy Central but the live show is shot in the UK. It's kinda mad because Comedy Central are recording it
***** Comedy Central UK make original programming as well
I'm so glad I stumbled upon this! I've never seen him before. He had me laughing the whole time!!
Au2brey Lynn you not from England, then?
His sister is playing Hyacinth in the Keeping Up Appearances reboot/prequel.
I'm so proud of him!! I've watched his show for so long and now he's performing live in America, I love you Russell !!
“My little sister had sex with an old ma- *SHE DIDNT TELL US THAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN* “
I think I would have given up on life at that moment
This is where it started. This is where I first found out about Russell Howard and I've grown to love him. ♥
I love Russell Howard and he's not just a little bit famous he's absolutely A lister material
I love Russell Howard! Great to see British comedians on Fallon!
Love the act. Love the "The Strokes" t-shirt
Huge Russell Howard fan! Glad to see he's getting some attention in the states. He's looking good too.
hes changed so much! he used to be all pale and skinny, he still looks good with a tan and muscles
He is hysterical!!! I need to look up more of his comedy!
The crowd was not laughing nearly enough for how funny he actually was, all they were doing was occasionally chuckling while I was crying...
im in stitches the guys a genious im so glad hes finally getting international recognition
I'm from ireland and typical that she was drinking tea
Great comedian. His eyes are also hypnotically close together
I love Russell 😂💗
Yeah but a bit pale looking
Russell howell is my favourite comedian! It's so happy to see him in other countries.
Stewart lee will love this routine
he sure will maaaaaaate
I have no words for how much I love this man xD The fact he comes from the same city as me makes me proud ♥ So glad he's managed to get across the pond!
Why did this feel like an hour
You watched it 12 times?
Aiden Chung NICE MATHS
Drummer1000George Well I am asian...
Lol
Aiden Chung you just stereotyped yourself
Yes!!!! A thousand times yes!!! He's absolutely hilarious, couldn't stop laughing... Rooting that he does well and gets big in America, very refreshing.
Good news returns in august on bbc 2
I just discovered Russel last week and oh my God has it been the best week of my life
I love his shirt
wow, just wow. this was delivered so confidently, such great material....a joy to watch, laughed so hard. A true pro!
good content... and awsome shirt
GO THE STROKES!!
The joke with the old lady was magnificent !
I wonder if Omid Jalili would ever make it to the states
Doubt it, some American old biddy would accuse him of being Al Qaeda and have him dragged off the flight before they left Heathrow.
Omid Djalili has done lots of American gigs, google it! And yes he does make jokes about passport control...
I think Russell Howard might be my favourite comedian. For sure my favourite British comedian.
when did he get hench?
Russell Howard is a gem.
THATS A GREAT SHIRT WOW A+
I love Russell Howard. His comedy is thoughtful, whacky, and full of appreciation for his family.
representing Bristol!
i love russell howard so mcuh u have no idea, since mock the week and russell howards good news i have watched all his work i seriously love him u have no idea
This guy is so funny XD
I love that man he can make my worst days that much better
Top notch banter, he deserves to go for a cheeky Nandos with the lads!
Oh. My. God.
Russell Howard is great. His show Good News is amazing.
My cheeks hurt- DON'T SAY IT!
Murrrrrrr
Megan Royston giggady
Murrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Murrrrrrr
I absolutely love his comedy! He is an awesome comedian and this was fantastic
His material is much better than this usually, but this is still good
Because in American TV they bleep out swearing and I guess being British some jokes will only make sense to British people.
British humor is British humor
“you fabulous dumpling” 🤣🤣🤣
now get Frankie Boyle! guaranteed success. and bleep-fest. but mostly success.
***** have you actually met an American, or have you just met a few and decided they represented us as a whole? I love how people stereotype us. It's hilarious.
Gabor Biro But Frankie does'nt have good jokes, just good insults.
Gabor Biro yes judge a person you've never met. Actually, I can. SHE'S WRONG!!!!!
Dresden Pierce
I'm not judging one person, I'm judging the whole country by what I see. and I know well enough about the things that you (as a country) consider to be okay to know that Frankie would be illegal by law before he'd finish his show.
Dresden Pierce No, she's right. Americans and British people have very different humour. Frankie would be killed before he leaves the gig. I think he might actually be banned from BBC. That's how bad some of his jokes are.
more of that please!!! Love that guy from head to toes.
I like watching Russell Howard...... Murrr
never heard of him till today, but he's very funny. will have to look him up on RUclips
He has a show in england called russell howards good news you should check it out.
Why do they just clap and cheer? Laugh ffs
CaptainAmazeballs because they're American they cheer about everything
It’s a condition
Saw him live in Leeds last year. He is amazing.
Why do American audiences seem to whoop and clap over the majority of the act instead of just laughing at the jokes?
Probably cause they don't find the jokes funny. Umm :& lol ?? 😂
I don't care how old the clip is, Russell Howard makes me laugh uproariously!!😂😀😂😅😂
He's the British Dane Cook
I absolutely love Russell Howard!!!! He is soooo funny!!!!

I wasn't really a big fan of Russell anyway, I watch "Good News" every now and then but he's better than this.
Humour is different. Most jokes here wouldn't be as funny in the states
That's because most of our jokes are too shocking to american's for them to even laugh.
I've heard him tell the same jokes to an English audience and they were hilarious. Sounds to me like he had to change them to make them a little more, uh, palatable to a US audience. Shame, because I appreciate the originals more. But then again, I tend not to find many American comedians very funny at all, so maybe they feel the same about Brit comedians.
Always loved Russell Howard! Glad to see him in american on The Tonight Show! well done Russell
