Interviewer is to blame.

Day One:  Don't ask "yes / no" questions if you want detailed answers.  Duh.


Garbage in / Garbage out.

You're right of course.  Interviewer was a total twat.  Asks questions designed to put a 90 year old man down instead of looking for wisdom, reflection, nostalgia and the future path.

Interviewer asked some yes/no question, but also plenty of open ended questions. Lewis is a jerk.

Old men rock, and THR is a liberal rag.



Pure win!


Way to go Mr. Lewis!

Guy asked plenty, JL was being a douche or is senile beyond belief.  Seemed more like a douche, didn't much appear to be senile.  

He can suck it, just say no to the interview.  That makes it much easier.

That was awesome!  I could imagine the interviewer wondering "what the fuck did I do to deserve this?"

I see time has not mellowed Jerry out. He is till a major asshole.. Interesting that he said working with Dean Martin was his favorite time in his career considering he killed the act...

Is he still using TV interviews to shill for his spinal stimulator?

Absolutely agree.  Doesn't make him any less a douche.  Interviewer could have been better but not as bad as being portrayed here.  JL was gonna do his grumpy schtick no matter how or what he asked.  You can see that by the answers given. 

He is entitled at age 90, but still a douche.  Decency doesn't get retired if your payday comes from public entertainment.  

Change him out with the latest douchey NFL player, everybody here would be beating the NFL player down.

Reminds me of the interview of the Beastie Boys I saw several years ago. There were all a bunch of tools, gave one word answers, and just acted like they were too cool to be there.  Tools.

Say what you want about the man. He did a hell of a lot more charitable work than any other Hollywood type.

Jerry Lewis on his split from Dean Martin - EMMYTVLEGENDS.ORG

After reading this I can't knock him for the interview...

In a December 2015 interview on EWTN's World Over with Raymond Arroyo, Lewis expressed opposition to the United States letting in Syrian refugees, saying "“No one has worked harder for the human condition than I have, but they’re not part of the human condition”. In the same interview, he criticized president Barack Obama for not being prepared for ISIL, while expressing support for Donald Trump, saying he would make a good president because he was a "showman". He also added that he admired Ronald Reagan's presidency.

He might be an ass, but Jerry Lewis knows politics and foreign policy better than 90% of Americans...   listen to his comments about ISIS, Trump and Reagan. He did not skewer Obama like he could have , but he still took a nice little jab about him being inexperienced ...

Just because you have good political ideas doesn't excuse acting like a cunt.

He could have just not done the interview.

I saw him years ago on Johnny Carson, Leno, or one of those shows.  Was always a fan until seeing him interviewed that night and showing what a liberal POS he really is.  Fuck him!

I thought he was dead?

Maybe that's just "Mandela Effect" going on.

The interview on Isis was solid. I think his disgust in Hollywood and millennials is apparent.

Would it change your mind if you knew Jerry used to be an accomplished sixgun shooter and quick-draw artist?  He and Sammy Davis Jr. both were.  He knows his way around a Colt single action.

And being 90- well, I gotta give the guy some slack just for being 90.
