    Something happens to Colbert when Krasinski is on. A wild man he becomes.
  • @orsygodri1155
    My absolute favorite when John and Emily go on the show because the banter with Stephen is always on point and hilarious.
  • @BryanLee
    Props to Stephen for being immediately down to arm wrestle even though he had no chance against John lol
  • @h3artands0uLL
    You can tell Stephen is genuinely delighted when John and Emily come on the show. He absolutely loves them
  • @xxxxxsero
    I absolutely love it when Stephen has guests on that he loves as humans. You can tell straight away!
  • @coolcat8b
    John is some sort of human positivity charger, just like for a cellphone, but for humans. Not only is he a delight to interview, but he radiates positive energy that can, for some reason, reach me through my screen! That's a super power, right there. John is a real life superhero.
  • @needyverse
    The heightened energy in the air from the moment they sit down together shows their real friendship honestly, I was hyped
  • @artkincell
    I love the trailer was a throwback to the Jim/Randall Park episode of The Office.
  • @jessm.porthos
    LOL the most silly, chaotic and unhinged interview
  • @ktinxx
    This was Hi-La-Ri-Ous! I love their chemistry, they play so incredibly well off of each other! And the arm wrestling was the cherry on top, what a treat! 😄👏👏👏
  • @needyverse
    9:24 The way Stephen suddenly arches his back like an angry cat made me laugh so hard I hurt my own back
  • @yesloow
    I love that the guy saying he’s John Krasinski in the preview for IF is the same guy who pretended he was Jim in The Office. What a call back!!!
  • @thales8153
    I wish every interview was like this, more casual and light
  • I was clapping like an idiot by the end. This is true chemistry! A really healthy display of friendship - no pretense, no fakeness, no unnecessary fawning or drama.
  • I absolutely love John Krasinski's demonstration of his favorite game play today during the Super Bowl.
  • @ellicel
    I don't generally care about celebrity relationships, but John and Emily seem so perfect together and like such nice people that I really wish good things for them. I hope they have a long and happy marriage and family life

    John Krasinski's "show" was the best thing about the COVID lockdown!
