I would watch “Late Night with Julio Torres” so fast.
Every time I've needed a plunger I was happy I had that plunger. In the moment, the plunger was the most valuable thing I owned. It was the hero.

Julio Torres has some of the sharpest wit I have ever experienced. Seeing how much he invoked Seth's inner child made me really happy.
Julio is hilarious!! So nuanced and refreshing. More of him, please.
Julio Torres is a separate form of art and he is absolutely awesome
I love the way Julio thinks
I've enjoyed every video I've seen him in and have missed seeing him. He's so endearing - such cute humor.

"Cute" humor..that made me kaugh..not the word Id use for his humor..I'm wondering why you use that world for his humor just curious

@@leif1075 in my opinion his humor can come across as “cute” because of the way he humanizes inanimate objects and feels sympathy for them. there is something that seems childlike or innocent about the simplicity of his jokes. I could go on about this but it would be too long lol
I love him. Many of my favorite SNL segments are his. Wells for Boys, Papyrus, My Little Step Children, Goddesses, The Actress, Customer Service...He should have his own sketch show (though Los Espookys is hilarious).

I love Julio Torres. His mind works on a different plane and that makes him interesting. His in-depth analysis of inanimate objects is one example.
The casual reference to Madonna's "Sex" Book. Hilarious!🤣
Can’t wait for more Los Espookys
I love Los Espookys
Loving how this guys mind works! 😂

I Want To Be A Vase looks like the sort of book Jack Harris from Duncanville would like, since he is a plumber and in Work Marriage Story, he drew a face on a plunger to be his friend at work.
👏👏
give him his own show, please

He has one it’s called “Los Espookys” - there’s also his show “My Favorite Shapes” on HBO. Also he used to be a writer for SNL so even though you may not have seen him you may be familiar with his work

This is just Fred Amirsen in disguise right? There can't be that much of an improvisational personality overlap.
I only know of Julio Torres because he voices Crispin Cienfuegos on The Great North. I wish The Great North would give him a storyline away from Ham Tobin, because I know nothing about Crispin as a character even though I have seen him on screen so many times over the course of 2 seasons. Crispin appears more often in a full season of The Great North than Alexis, Bernard's girlfriend, in a full season of Craig of the Creek, yet I can still get more of a feel for what Alexis is like as a person than what I get with Crispin. I find it funny that the color of Julio's hair and shirt in this episode of Late Night With Seth Meyers are the other way around from his character in The Great North. May 27, 2022, 3:51pm
I just realized he looks like he could be Pat Smear's son. lol

He's one of those low key genius people who think so outside the box from the rest of us they are just constantly witty and cutting edge with their humor. Like who thinks to look at objects and shapes and gives them characters?

When isn't a toilet plunger a hero?

Plunger got me out of a jam.
so where the hell is season2 of espoo kys?
Except that that isn't a toilet plunger that's a sink plunger but nobody knows the difference so they always just use the wrong one because it's the cheaper option and they don't know the difference or the store only carries the one kind cuz nobody ever buys the other.
very Tom Robbins idea...he should read Tom's material...
Ummm….Fred Armisen must have built at least 3 characters from Portlandia off of Julio!
Julio Torres "plumber's helper" shaped hero is a blatant rip-off of a Tralfamadorean conceived by renowned author Kurt Vonnegut and described in his classic 1969 novel [Slaughterhouse Five] (by it's protagonist Billy Pilgrim) to look just like "an upright toilet plunger, two feet in height." The friendly alien creatures could see and experience reality in four dimensions (and pitied earthlings for only being able to view life three dimensionally?!) These denizens from the planet Tralfamadore made their debut in Vonnegut's 1959 opus: [The Sirens of Titan], thereafter appearing in 1965 in [God Bless you Mr. Rosewater], again in the 1990's tale [Hocus Pocus], and his final novel [Timequake] in 1997. The collective exploits of these multi-dimensional beings were also chronicled in [The Protocols of the Elders of Tralfamadore] (allegedly ghost written by Kilgore Trout) Being that Kurt Vonnegut's prolific output is proscribed reading in most every advanced English curriculum throughout North America, it seems unlikely that Julio Torres would not be aware of his works, especially in view of the fact that Torres graduated with a degree in literary studies from "The New School" in New York City? 😏 As Billy Pilgrim often said: "And so it goes..."
🤔🤔not sure if this was entertaining 🤔
