When Jim Carrey crashed Jeff Daniels’ interview: A Dumb & Dumber reunion

Ah, the sheer thrill of two legends crossing paths unexpectedly! In 2018, we were treated to a hearty dose of nostalgia when the comedic genius of Dumb and Dumber, Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels, spontaneously collided on the Conan stage.

The Classic Duo's Surprise Rendezvous

Promotion tours can be a tad predictable – a standard serving of conversation sprinkled with some laughs. But when Jeff Daniels sat down to discuss his Hulu series, "The Looming Tower," none expected Jim Carrey, the goofball legend himself, to pop by. But as fate (or brilliant show planning) would have it, Carrey sneakily ambushed Daniels, causing uproarious joy. The surprise was evident, with Carrey jibing, “I wanted to come out here and say it in front of the world—you're in town and you don't call me."

A Stroll Down Aspen Lane

A brief pause from serious talk was in order, and the duo drifted to their iconic 1994 slapstick comedy, Dumb and Dumber. Ah, the classic tale of Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne, the unforgettable trip to Aspen, and the countless laughs it gifted us. Fast forward two decades and their sequel, while cherished by many, wasn’t quite the sensation its predecessor was. But ever the jesters, they didn’t bat an eyelid at the mixed reviews. Daniels' snarky response, “Fuck them, we don't care about that," had us in splits!

While a third installment of this iconic series remains in our wildest dreams, the genuine camaraderie between these two is undeniably enduring. Carrey's praise, “I watch everything he does. He's incredible... especially the parts where you talk about how working with me changed the course of your life,” left us in splits and pondering on the magic they spun together.
