after careful consideration I think the Ray Parker Jr. commercial is probably one of the funniest sketches ever made

have we really never done a K&P sketch poll???
― k*r*n koltrane (Simon H.), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 07:14 (four years ago) link
Prepared For Terries is the first one I saw and remains my favourite, despite having now seen a lot more. did they ever revive those characters?

Malcolm Barrett is an amazing straight man/foil in that one
― k*r*n koltrane (Simon H.), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 09:37 (four years ago) link
Prepared for Terries was in the last season. I'd seen it so many times in youtube etc before I watched s5, I was surprised it was actually broadcast so late in their run
Agreed re: Malcolm Barrett, what a turn!
Was that sketch perceptibly a reference to anything else or was it just their own fevered imaginations? The bit where Keegan first glides into view is spine-chilling

top 4 for me - Big Boi & Andre meet in a coffee shopI said biiiiiiiiiitch"I'm gonna fuck you in the ass"MMA pre-fight trash talk
― Donald Trump Also Sucks, Of Course (milo z), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 14:59 (four years ago) link
continental breakfast is an obvious classic. 'the flicker' was another one. they were also the rare sketch show where the returning bits never lost their luster (football names, valets, substitute teacher, obama, etc.)
i think the 80s aerobics sketch might take the cake for me though, and was the kind of sketch that made me less surprised than most when jordan peele turned into a horror auteur
― voodoo chili, Wednesday, 27 May 2020 17:08 (four years ago) link
continental breakfast suffers amidst this competition for its so-so ending imo
― k*r*n koltrane (Simon H.), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 17:11 (four years ago) link
to be fair, some of the best comedy sketches ever have so-so endings

no way could I pick just one but the "ultimate cockblock" sketch is definitely in the running

Their hit:miss ratio varied pretty wildly for me esp in later seasons but for sheer quantity of amazing sketches/characters they're up there with some of the best I've seen
― k*r*n koltrane (Simon H.), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 17:59 (four years ago) link
can't believe anyone doesn't like the ending of continental breakfast

Has Keanu aged well? I remember it being very unfunny when I first tried to watch it (never finished it).
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 18:16 (four years ago) link
I watched maybe 30 minutes and bailed. One-joke movie.
― k*r*n koltrane (Simon H.), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 18:16 (four years ago) link
(I guess it's possible the other jokes came later.)
― k*r*n koltrane (Simon H.), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 18:17 (four years ago) link
I watched the whole thing and it was bad
― Rik Waller-Bridge (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 18:17 (four years ago) link
Keanu was not good, though it did feature a subdued pre-Girls Trip Tiffany Haddish. Felt like a typical SNL movie, bad sketch premise extended to feature film length. Maybe find the Anna Faris parts online somewhere.

I'm trying to think of how to even hypothetically run a key and peele sketch poll and it's dizzying. Each recurring premise/set of characters gets lumped into one slot I guess?

She really was the queen of livening up otherwise subpar comedies for quite a while there

was rewatching some early season news with my gf, who had never seen the show, and it is for sure a bit more hit and miss than I had remembered. she wasn't particularly impressed and we ended up only watching a season or so.

Obama mic drop on the street corner is almost too short to qualify but it’s another favorite.

iirc the later seasons were stronger. though some of the all-timer sketches are in seasons 1 and 2
