Gary Gulman's Scholastic Role-Play | CONAN on TBS

Conan’s out loud laughter at Gary changing his name at the University was the best part

Brilliant!

Conan should have considered this skit Gulman's audition for being one of his writers...

This guy is so good, no wonder Conan became a huge fan.

Gulman isn't just a comedian, he is one of the greatest story-tellers I've ever seen. He pulls you into these fantastical worlds he dreamed up, and no matter how long the story is, it all ties together. References, sub-references, callbacks to other callbacks, it's all just genius. He is what's known as a comedian's comedian, which is evidenced by Conan's outburst of laughter. This is the guy that makes other comedians stand back in awe.

With all due respect to John Nash, Gary Gulman truly has a beautiful mind.

“Venn diagram-math department’s thing!” 😝

Gary Gulman is one of the best comedians in the United States. His writings are so highly intelligent and the performance is out of this world. This is one of the smartest comedic performances I have ever seen. Wow.

Gary's bits on the grape and Fig Newtons are AMAZING. He is a master story teller

I took Intro to Western Civ the last semester my senior year

I think he forgot that he was actually telling a joke and just got caught up in the story.

His role-play professor character has only a small window of time for his role-play student because he's busy grading papers - ha!

Gary Gulman is a brilliant comedian. Baffles me that he isn't a household name.

This was my favorite by far🤣🤣🤣

This guy is hilarious.

But then there's taking the role play too far for a healthy relationship...
Need to have a "safe" word to use to signal to the partner when the role play gets too rough.

Gary cashing in on this routine for as long as Seinfeld monetized “Seinfeld”. As Jerry says about new material, “I’m out, I got nothing”!”

That was really great!

He's so smart, I love his wording and his thinking process, he's hilarious!😂

Ah, the bit that Sold Me On Gulman. I mean, "Lewis." Good luck on getting tenure!

So, they won't hire Jews, but they'll admit them as students? (Who else would know when Rosh Hashanah comes out?) ;)

Another masterpiece from Gary Gulman.

Man this crowd S U C K S

A national treasure!

Gary Gulman is top 5 most original comedians that ever attempted stand up. This was amazing.

Then you get unfunny hacks like Dave Chappelle who got a reputation as one of America's funniest comics. Are you kidding me? This guy, Mulaney, Gaffigan, Wiig, Hader, ..... seriously! Don't even get me started on the snooze worthy Lenny Bruce and George Carlin (may they rest in peace).

It's hard to focus on the small detail of her being his gf. Great storyteller.

This is a masterclass in comedic writing!

A little bit of cologne today. Not so much that it's wafting off into the Dean's reception area, but enough to know that if you get close, you know he came to play today.

He is SO good!

He's just such a craftsman. Brilliant delivery and timing

The scene from the Joker,

Yeah. College that doesn’t hire Jews. What college would that be? Liberty U?

This guy is hilarious 🤣🤣🤣

I love this guy. HE IS EXHAUSTING. Still funny.

This is the joke he tells in Joker

This should have way more views. It’s a masterpiece 🤣

"That's... not.. how we measure extra credit."

Quite possibly my favorite comedy clip.

AMAZING!!!!

Brilliant! One of the best written bits I've ever seen!

I think his set on the committee that decided the two letter state abbreviations was even better. He's great.

This guy never fails. Brilliant. Relevant. Got to see his act.

The prof/student who'll do anything to pass trope is abundant. Funny how he weaves it into a role-play.

This and the state abbreviations are two of the highest detail and best story jokes I’ve ever heard

this is so good!

A Venn Diagram? Stepping on the Math Dept's toes again, huh Gary??

This is pure comedic art. It's the art form at it's best.

Lol you can hear Conan laugh
