Opie's subtle brillance

30  2013-11-21 by [deleted]

Anyone catch the part of todays show when Jim bursts into an impression of bobo and while everyones laughing, Opie silently says into the mic "call the show". Lo and behold the insufferable autist calls

Nothing makes me laugh more when opie will interrupt jimmy and say "hold on we got an important call on the line..." And it's bobo

Gotta love that Jimmy groan when Bobo's on the line

This point is really the nail in the coffin for Opie haters. No one knows how to wind up Jim and Ant better than Opie. And he'll just keep downplaying whatever it is that's making them angry. "It's not that bad! I kind of like it!"

You mean to tell me that someone that's spent the better part of a decade working with Anthony and Jimmy knows some of their quirks? Well sir, you've convinced me. I love Opie now!

I don't really care if you like him or not. Go nuts.

All I've sought after my whole life is your approval. Now that I have it, I have no idea what to do with my life.

You are a bad troll... and a shithead.

You seem rather upset fella. Care to talk it out?

He's not so bad! I kind of like him!

Opie is a big-titted smi-transparent blond jabroni

Who says Jabroni ? What year is this

Year of the retard, apparently.

The Legend.

When Bobo says 3 times "You guys woke me up" it's hard to believe Bobo called in.

It really sounded like he revealed the bit by accident there and everyone sort of ignored him.

We owe Opie big for Shaq Balloon. The greatest thing ever.

Yeah, he really blew that up.

Silently says into a mic.

Yeah sadly bobo can't read minds so, you know.

I'm just mocking the poor choice of wording OP has made.

Yeah, but it can't be said SILENTLY... into a mic.

I would love to hear Opie for one week Ron & Fez. Him, Pepper Hicks, Ronnie B and Fezzie.

Who is Fez?

Todd

That explains him always being trapped in that invisible box...

He wouldn't be able to keep up there either. And they already have Hicks to move the show along.

While they were just talking: "Bobo call. You're my weapon." Jim almost called him out on it.

Shit dude. I had no idea I was listening to a fucking savant this whole time until you pointed this out. I've been going about this reddit all wrong. Maybe opie doesn't suck.....

I hope I'm witnessing character development on this novelty account.

maybe you're a mincy dicked faggot?

During what segment did the retard call? I must've missed that.

Shaq balloon.

Opie loves those dumb callers because when actual comedy is happening he has nothing to contribute

think of how hard it would be to keep up with ant and jim, they are crazy quick with the jokes.

We don't need to imagine, we just need to think back to the last time a caller tried to "be one of the guys" and failed miserably. That's exactly how it would for everyone in this subreddit.

"sorry our phone crapped out, could you repeat that?"

The best bit Jim's ever brought to the radio in my opinion.

And Opie.

Except lay the groundwork for genius comics to do their thing, he makes so much good comedy happen. There's a reason a producer picks up the Best Picture Oscar and not the director, and it's because the producer is the one that gets the artists in the same room and gives them the space to do their thing.

when the producer (erock) is in the room, there is no space for other people

Opie is a delight.

I noticed that too but i thought he said. "Get him to call in or call bobo"

As a que to erock or whoever. To get bobo to call in. Which is why he kept saying "uuugh yoou guys woke me up"

I didn't like it at all. Opie tried to play it off like Bobo organically called the show to comment. But when show staff called him waking him up that's just fake radio.

It's the brilliance of the show, they re-enforce the idea all the time that they pump up the show for casual listeners. In this case, he was playing a prank on Jim for the show, and for laughs.

No.
