  • In the early 1970’s we lived in Chelsea Mich next door to the Daniels….his dad built our house. Very down to earth family. Thanks for being such great neighbors….I’m proud to have lived next door to you and happy for all your success!
  • @dusseau13
    Jeff Daniels has a range far above most actors. Very under rated even though he is famous. One actor I would like to meet if conditions were right.
  • @tedtamada
    I love Jeff Daniels and I am so happy to see him again.
  • @joycedavis9996
    Jeff Daniels makes that acting thing look so easy…he’s the G-O-A-T🥰🤗

    Everyone loves them some Jeff Daniels...Fellow Michigander (via California, via Peru, Via Hoosierlandia) now driving the potholes in Lansing

    Jeff Daniels is so great! The Meryl Streep story is proof that he's absolutely the real deal. As well as his remarkable career.
  • @LMM7880
    My first time seeing Jeff was Terms of Endearment. He was a cad but terrific in that role.
  • @TheFeather47
    My dad once welded a gate for Jeff at his house in Michigan, he didn't get a chance to met him, but he did met his wife Kathleen and said she was incredibly nice.
  • @prowlermadmax2
    I've watch some of Jeff's films, but I never took him seriously until he started trashing trump, that's when he earned my respect.
  • @tbd-5160
    If you ever want to Meet Jeff Daniels, you can see him in person in Michigan. He's very personable. He lives near Chelsea, Michigan, and still operates The Purple Rose Theater. Very nice guy. He likes his privacy, but that's overcome by his niceness.
  • @DNTXPCTMCH
    I loved Jeff Daniels on Seth Meyers podcast - Family Trips. ❤
  • @shespeex8413
    My favorite performance of his was as Col. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain. Moves me to tears every time.
  • @mraereed
    Michigan loves you Jeff! You too Stephen, but 50 films ain't nuthin' to sneeze at!
  • @andyduck1127
    No mention of American Rust? Solid series! Season two is outstanding. Im in episode 3 of Godless. Another home run.
  • @wandamundy1759
    Jeff Daniels and Bill Murray are cut from the same mold. They are both "beloved" of their audiences. I adore them both. I just enjoy their work so much. It's like hearing two really great pickers trading licks. Just lovely.

    "Have fun at the glue factory" Jeff Daniels is so savage 😂
