Succession Fans Beg Brian Cox to Say His Iconic Catch Phrase - Late Night with Seth Meyers

Late Night with Seth Meyers

[rodaxel]

Damn Logan Roy himself. The scene with him and Kendall talking one in one last episode is brutal. This season went by so fast.

[WTFPrm]

The fact that he sincerely loves his children makes Logan Roy all the more horrifying. Imagine being a human being whose genuine love is expressed with so much cruelty...

[socrappyicoulddie]

Love love love hearing him speak; not just because he's immensely eloquent but it's somewhat of a relief to know that he's nothing like Logan lol

[AroundTheWorldWithEase]

I’m born and raised and lived my whole life in LA, so you know, you see Steven Spielberg (repeatedly) or David Bowie and companions at Starbucks, and you don’t say a thing, and you don’t bring any attention to them. That’s the beauty of being famous and living here. However, my boyfriend is Scottish, and in December 2019, just having finished watching season 2, we were at his tailor in Edinburgh, and Brian Cox walks in. I thought I was going to die. The b/f comes out of the other room and I can’t even breathe, let alone speak, and I’m like, “Brian Cox … thbtfthy!” And under his breath, he’s like, “Calm down! You’re embarrassing me!”. I had to go outside in order to catch my breath.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Seth Meyers is the best interviewer around right now. Thank you and the entire crew obviously.

[meumnomen]

Saw a heartbreaking BBC doc about life in workhouses, and Brian Cox was one of the people who traced their families history through said workhouses. Really moving.

[bobbi]

The actors and the scriptwriting / dialogue in Succession are what make it next level. Some of the best character development in the game.

[EzraDair]

I love that his mic is matching the sweater

[Powersrg]

I love Seth has gotten a lot better as an interviewer. You can tell he's so much more comfortable now.

[KinKaNef]

Seth you do an amazing job interviewing people. 👍

[molefilebone]

Wow, Brian is too honest in this interview. This is what happens when you get mature and don't care what people say.

[garvitjethwani]

He is right, the result of Jeremy Strong's approach is just extraordinary like DDL, but literally to go through that heavy emotion from playing this character is just draining.

[Dn]

Up there with Billy Connolly in terms of being a national treasure 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[leonthesleepy]

All his scenes with Kendall are brutal

[blockpart]

Hes so cuteeee, like a teddy bear. Thats how great of an actor he is

[claycook]

Everyone knows the most famous line from his movies is:
"You can't come in here, this is my mastabatorium!"
(Running With Scissors)

[nanii]

Seth Meyers is soooo good at interviewing people!! Love it!

[DG-wuke]

Great interview of one our generations best actors. TYVM

[socialjunkiedotcom]

Come on, 'I swear to god I'll pistol whip the next guy that says shenanigans!' and then ' Put those things away' is classic Brian Cox!

[carlosangalang]

Succession makes so much more sense watching it as a dark comedy. Brian Cox is fantastic
