I like "My Pen", "No one must know, my terrrible secret", and "I'm the king of the mercy fuck"

i always really liked 'girl drink drunk' - and of course the one where dave foley picks up the hitchhiking kevin mcdonald and goes on a big rant about what a fatty he is.

i love the one where scott thompson dresses up as a bear and mauls the guy that rides his bike past his house every morning for calling him a fag. that was a mess of a sentence.

any episode with GAVIN. like the one where he watches the guy painting a chair. or the one where he falls in love with his babysitter.

My favourite Gavin sketch: when he reveals the ingredients in wieners: cows eyes, dogs heads, old phonebooks, and wieeeeener flaaaaaavour.

i also really love the two panhandling dudes played by mark mckinney and bruce mccollough - esp. the sketch where they win lifetime supplies of ketchup and macaroni and cheese.

okay, all of the above. plus: scott thompson as an indian woman, the guy who forgets to return video tapes to his coworker because "it slipped his mind," chicken lady at the male strip club, all of the hotel la rut sketches, raj and christine... i have to stop now.

oh, god - how about the one in which satan challenges scott mccullogh to a guitar duel? and the one in which dave foley explains to him why rock is dying? or the bass player song? or the terrier song? 50 helens agree! this show was the best! it's a fact!

The Doors skit

"excuse me, do you have the new depeche mode?" "yeah we do...but they suck"

"the gypsies had no home, the doors had no bass"

as mentioned on the Raquetball thread...THE ERADICATOR!

"Gerald!"

"Gerry!"

"Ger!"

"G!"

The one where Mark as a woman comes to teach some workers how to throw a suprise party for a co-worker and they're totally clueless.

The one with the french-canadian furriers canoeing through moder-day canada and setting traps in an office, "let that one go, he may one day be vice president", pulling up to scott thompson dave foley says "we have calvin klein, perry ellis, and many Armani"

Mark as the Serbian cab driver.

and there are a couple of ones that i really like that probably really aren't all that funny -

bruce mccullough - the one where he's driving and listening to the "sports score, it's so true"

and kevin mcdonald - when the car is in the driveway but it won't start - "try it now!"

4.23) Open Letter to the People Who Watched the Guy Steal His Bike Wheel
[Monologue by Bruce]

"And now Bruce McCulloch with an open letter to the people who watched the guy steal his bike wheel" [spoken by Scott]

[Bruce enters, bike lowered from above] Well, you knew it wasn't his wheel! What did you think? He was coming back for the rest of his bike later? Well, why didn't you do something? Why didn't you say something? You human piece of apathy! Why didn't you say, "Hey! That's not your wheel! That could be Bruce McCulloch's wheel! We love him! And he loved that wheel!" Just eatin' brunch. Well, didn't you think I needed it? I did! Well, look at that! Feast on that act of violence! Good work, Einstein! Pus!

"That was Bruce McCulloch with an open letter to the people who watched while the guy stole his bike wheel." [spoken by Scott]

[Bumper video of Bruce walking his incomplete bike.]

Dear Guy I Clotheslined As You Went By on Your Bicycle.
You don't know me, but I'm the guy who broke your collarbone. Now I've asked myself over and over why did I clothesline that guy. Perhaps I watched too much slapstick as a kid and expected you to get up after being violently assaulted. Imagine my confusion when you did not. Although not so confused that I'd actually hang around.

In all fairness, It was pretty funny, I mean the last thing you'd expect as you were riding merrily by on your bike is that someone you didn't know at all would stick out his arm and crush your throat.

I mean, you really should have seen it, It was just like WAM! BAM! (hahaha)

ANY-WAY....

In closing, as you lay there convalescing in your hospital be, I'm forced to wonder 'What were you doing riding your bike on the sidewalk anyway, Huh, ya asshole? side-WALK!

Maybe sometimes we bring heartache upon ourselves.

Signed, the guy that collapsed your trachea.

"These Are The Daves I Know." I don't know why, it just cracks me up every time. Especially "they all have their own hands, but they come from different moms" (it's the "but" that does it).

the skit where the comedy writer gets called into the editors office to be yelled at for writing a bad skit, then says "you wrote this skit, didn't you?" and then asks what's my name again? and it's Mr. Pinklefeather or something, then he pulls out a pie and it gets dumber and dumber and finally realized he hadn't written an ending...

Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Tuesday, 30 March 2004 22:26 (9 years ago) Permalink

bruce with something on his mustache..."did I get it?" which is a great premise but the funniest line in that skit is unrelated to that, Scott gets up to show him a line chart and says "this green line represents our profits and this green line represents our competitors profits etc" and it's all jumbled up and Bruce says "shouldn't you have made the lines different colors?"

"When Kathy with a K gets mad, you understand, she gets the devil right
in her eye... And she don't hurt a guy one time, no sir, she hurt a guy
*five* times. One time, she won't talk to me, two times, she don't walk with
me, three times, she won't squawk with me, four times, she won't walk with me
but in another place ya understand, and five time she start to eat. Cause

haha i'd never watched the youtube in this post so i imagined it as something Bruce would say, was surprised to see it was actually Scott-as-Francesca.

got the complete series box set (which i found out on some other ILE thread was only like $35 on Amazon! incredible deal!), it's really fun to occasionally stumble upon the sketches or in some cases entire episodes that were never in rerun rotation on Comedy Central.
