Top Comments of this video!! :3
I'll say what I've always said. Bo isn't a comic, he's a performer. Every light, every note, every movement is planned down to the millisecond. He's painfully aware of his talent and the exploitation of talent as a whole. He's brilliant absolutely brilliant, and its killing him while we all laugh.

I'll always remember the time I met Bo. It was right before Eighth Grade was set to release in theaters, and my local theater had its posters put up all around outside, on the marquee and everything. I was walking by one day when I saw Bo standing outside the theater. He was just... looking up at the posters, the marquee, with this sort of wistful expression I can't honestly describe as happiness. I can't imagine what must have been going through his head. (I let him have his moment and then managed to catch him for a quick hello as he was walking away; he's a very nice and gracious guy.)

Bo is the intellectual opposite of "ignorance is bliss".
He's so self-aware it sometimes cripples him. It seems like he finds some relief in comedy, but I think what really helps him find peace is pulling the curtain down and showing his audience a perspective they may not have otherwise considered.
Videos exactly like this one prove that his message does get through.

I've been following his work for a long long time. My wife took me to his comedy show when he toured our city. When it was over, she finally realized what I saw in this kid. She's a therapist and saw much deeper things and saw more to him than just jokes. Just like you did. Thank you for your perspective.

Itās crazy how at 9:54 as heās literally talking about how weāre addicted to the internet, the interviewer is scrolling thru her phone instead of making eye contact or actually listening to him š

Thereās a lot to love in this video essay but bro thatās low key a brilliant line. Bo would be proud.

One of the differences about Bo Burnhamās stuff that didnāt age well is mainly that heās quite clear that heās a young kid that was doing some shock stuff for some quick laughs, yet at the same time heās fully aware of what heās doing . Then, as you said, you just watch him grow artistically and even mentally and itās a crazy journey

āCome letās watch the skinny kid with a steadily declining mental health, and laugh as he gives you something that he cannot give himselfā has stuck with me for years. Bo is a genius at making poetically sad comedy. Funny with sadness in the eyes
