Where did you find this ungrammatical sentence?

Always capitalise 'I' and the first word of a sentence.

I would say:

I can't understand everything he says.

I can't understand all of his tv show, because some of his words [STRIKE]is[/STRIKE] are too [STRIKE]deep[/STRIKE] hard/big/difficult/advanced/tough/challenging/obscure/esoteric"

If by 'deep' you mean difficult to understand his vocabulary, I've listed several possible options in a rough order of likely usefulness.

See also some other grammatical corrections I've made to your example sentence.

I think 'TV' should be capitalized and 'show' should be plural unless there is only one.
'Deep' is a literal translation from the OP's native language.
