Hi, friends!
What’s some iconic comedy stuff that you love?
Vintage Monty Python crew? Old school SCTV and all the talent that launched? SNL? If so, any specific eras? MadTV? Key & Peele or a more recent group? Kids content like All That?
Bonus points if you share a sketch video. I’m making this on my phone so I’ll add a video later.
Kids in the Hall
The Doomsday DJ skit with Dave Foley for the Kids revival a few years ago was really funny but also about as grim as you could get. Unfortunately I can’t find a video if it.
Eddie Izzard’s Dress to Kill, particularly “Do you have a Flag?!?” Religion, and “Cake or Death?”
Also, Makeup and Squirrels;
And “Seagulls, Stop it Now,” & “My Stick” from Bad Lipreading (also the Football Bad Lipreading ones!);
I Think You Should Leave has had some incredible stuff.
The Hot Dog Guy sketch captures something right about how far people will go to gaslight.
I loved all the old BBC shows but this one was our generation’s hit
And in Hawaii it was this guy that just shows, some things never change.
Bobby Lee’s characters were bloody annoying. I thought he was more amusing as himself. Turns out he’s as creepy in real life as he was on the show.
Some current stuff I like
I looked for but couldn’t find Bob Newhart’s skit on MadTV as the surliest psychiatrist ever. It was hilrious and maybe it will resurface someday.
That’s it! S-T-O-P-I-T!
