Ciscoe Morris responds to ‘Last Week Tonight’ segment

Aug 7, 2017, 9:06 AM | Updated: 4:43 pm

Spoiler alert: The video below is a clip from the latest episode of “Last Week Tonight.”

Most people in Seattle know who Ciscoe Morris is by now, even if they don’t have a green thumb.

Thanks to “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver,” the nation is aware of just how much Ciscoe loves … everything. The HBO show aired a segment titled: “You wish you loved anything as much as Seattle gardening expert Ciscoe Morris loves everything.”

By Monday morning, many people were already aware of the segment, except for Ciscoe. He didn’t know about it until minutes before he joined Seattle’s Morning News. In fact, he has never watched the show.

Listen to the interview here.

Warning: The following video contains vulgar language.

Skip to 3:11 for the segment with Ciscoe.
