Dominic sits on that couch like he just came home from a long day at work (or stoned af)

@germandarling123

Jonathan seems like such kind, genuine, pleasant human being. And he's so handsome and talented, too!

@1chelp

@alyssia7338

Not to be dramatic but I would literally die for Jonathan Groff!

@BlakeZang

Finally, I can see a new interview about Jonathan Groff waiting so long

@kaaru6891

I'm genuinely so happy seeing Jonathan Geoff finally getting to be in TV shows for interviews. That guy is amazingly talented and seems such a nice and generous guy to be around. I wish him all the success!

@aaryalouise6391

What I love most about this cute af video is the fact that Dominic is so comfortable joking about dating Jonathan - society really is improving when it comes to LGBTQ+

@saimcheeda93

They were joking but Jonathan and Dominic would look good as a couple

@alexc6342

Dom being a good ass friend when he said "nice tension that paid of later" that laughs means "know exactly what you mean

I'm a simple person. I see groffsauce, I click.

@mappingoutthesky

Can we talk about Jonathan being a Broadway star and still taking time to teach?? So humble!

@noidreamers

@ChumDaisyF

Groffsauceโ€˜s voice is so beautiful I can literally hear him speak/ sing all day

@lynn8022

When Dominic said "she's gone now" it sounded kind of sad ๐Ÿ˜ณ

@AmritaGopal

OMGG YESS I love how comfortable Jonathan is in his own skin ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ heโ€™s so talented and his voice omg-

@forcryinoutloud

Middle class Shameless - Jaysus Dominic is hilarious! "She's gone now" LOL - I wish he was on The Late Late Show more often. I absolutely LOVE the dynamic between him and James. I'd happily watch a full hour of just the two of them rambling about their quirky friendship. :P
