Zach Galifianakis Is The Houseguest From Hell After A Misunderstanding On ‘The Late Late Show’

When you see the word “houseguest” tossed out there, the first thought should be the Sinbad classic film from 1995. Not only did it give Phil Hartman an entertaining vehicle alongside a modern comedic legend, but it introduced some of us to The Commodores. Not too bad.

But now, thanks to The Late Late Show, houseguest can conjure up some new memories featuring Zach Galifianakis. Stemming from his last appearance on the show, Galifianakis takes James Corden’s offer to come by anytime to heart and practically moves into Corden’s offices. The real problem is that Galifianakis sticks around, it’s that he’s the worst guest possible. He snores while lying in a pile of filth, he mixes margaritas at 10 AM while you’re trying to talk on the phone, and he only uses fax to contact people because he doesn’t trust email.

Not only that, but he seems to have a tendency to steal everything he can when you finally break down and ask him to leave. If it’s not tacked down or attached to the wall, it’s going home with Zach.

It leaves only one question at the end of it all: which houseguest was more memorable? Is it Sinbad posing as a long-lost dentist friend with a love of McDonald’s and greedy mobsters or is it Zach Galifianakis and his cucumber face mask? I still lean towards the classic, but Zach gave it his best shot.
