JOHN KRASINSKI AND BO BURNHAM TOGETHER?!? .... I’m gonna cry with happiness
-
came for mostly bo and partly john
-
I wonder if the people at this table realize that the young kid sitting at the table is a literal genius.
-
55:55 "There's a representational elephant in the room right now". One woman, all whites. So subtle. Bo I love you.
-
I am in love with how John is laughing at Bo’s jokes and how he clearly recognizes his intelligence I would die if they worked on something together
-
Bo Burnham and John Krasinski is a combination I never knew I needed.
-
I felt bo's hands shaking when pointing out an ignorance in his much older and more experienced peers. I have the absolute most respect for that man.
-
Tamara’s smile when Bo said “there’s a representational elephant in the room too” ~priceless~
-
It feels like Bo gained respect from these writers as this bit progressed. You could tell that his words resonated with the experienced writers at the table and they were intrigued and impressed by his responses. He is much more engaged by the end of it, so I think he felt the same way.
-
25:33 "I write from a place of loneliness and a little bit of depression". Bo's chuckle felt like a "hold my beer" lol
-
Bo consistently engaging and listening to Tamara throughout this entire discussion is so refreshing to me
-
The way that everyone just ignored bo when he said “there’s a representational elephant in the room too”
-
An SNL skit with Mr. Bean playing the moderator cutting people off and having odd questions could be good
-
Bo's perspective is so interesting and insightful. I could watch an hour of just him talking about the creative process and how he sees society today
-
This host, cutting off the only female panelist at every turn and then when the topic turns to romance he's like "finally a topic she knows about!" It's painful to watch.
-
There's no way the time was suddenly over the moment Bo says something that will rile up half the table lmao
-
Tamara: I’m going to speak about the topic, here’s a quick premise— Host: yes, yes, fabulous point but also, somebody across the table, what is your take on, say, illegal organ donations
-
Bo's final remarks are the most important thing said in this entire video.
-
John saying “someone is writing this down right?” as Bo gives his brilliant explanation of youth creator culture near the end exemplifies Bo’s ability to verbalize what a whole generation has been trying to explain to their elders for years now. And as other commenters noticed I think as the video progressed they all gained respect for each other.
