OMG. Those fail videos have my face hurting from laughing. I love the weightlifter kid who immediately calls "MOM!! MOMMA!!!"

Heeee-larious.

She said " ya sure that little assholes through"
I thought it was funny

I always liked The Carol Burnett Show.

I guess you do have to know the show, and the history behind it all. Youtube is rife (rife, I tell you) with takes from the show where Conway went off on a tangent.

It was some years ago too. Many of us grew up with The Carol Burnett show, so it might be funny to someone other than me.

Out of context, I guess it wouldn't be funny.

I remember it well. And we LOVED it.

To me, none of them said anything funny, certainly not funny enough to justify their own corpsing or the audience reaction. I know the same could be said if I posted a random clip of The League of Gentlemen live though.

And what does Vicki Lawrence say at the end? "Do you hear that little asshole's do?" I watched twice and couldn't work it out, let alone understand why the two guts fell off their chairs.

(just to reiterate, not an attack on the humour - I just don't get it)

"Asshole" caught them off guard AND it was in total character.

All the incarnations of The Carol Burnett Show were awesome. I'm wondering, though, if this was from her show, or was it actually Mama's Family, the show that was spun off from that recurring sketch?

Don't. Carol Burnett is not funny. She's just retarded.

Okay
In return. Out-takes from Max and Paddy Road to Nowhere.

I expect about two people to find this funny, and one of them is me. Quit when you've had enough. It's not funny because they fall over or things fall on them. It's just funny because they laugh all the time.

Background - Peter Kay and Paddy McGuinness are stand up comedians. Peter Kay is also an award winning writer/ director/ singer/ all round good egg. He has the most ridiculous laugh in the world - not heard when he's acting but often - OFTEN - in out-takes. This is from Max & Paddy, a Channel 4 sitcom that was a spin off from Phoenix Nights. Both are very dead-pan as finished products (proper British humour). The making is anything but. Don't let comedians anywhere near your shooting schedule is all I can say.

A twist on a classic sketch you might just know... The Four Yorkshiremen
Left to right - Harry Enfield, Alan Rickman, Eddie Izzard, Vic Reeves
You might only know two of them, so take it on trust that for the Brits this is a stellar line-up

Infinite apologies if I've already posted this. It seems odd if I haven't!

Elspode · 10-29-2008, 07:46 AM

It would seem they're paying homage to a Monty Python skit of the same title.

Sundae · 10-29-2008, 08:03 AM

Yes, it's the same sketch, but with just a little ad-libbing.
Not technically Monty Python btw - at least not the original. It's from the Not the 1948 Show and was performed by Tim Brooke-Taylor, John Cleese, Graham Chapman and Marty Feldman.

The only person who doesn't know it by heart is Alan Rickman (hence the paper). The other comedians already knew it by heart.

Elspode · 10-29-2008, 08:14 AM

Cool! Eddie Izzard and Alan Rickman on the same stage is groovy. Not familiar with the other two, though.
