I loved the line “It’s Elisha Cuthbert from 24 on an elephant, she looks fucking majestic!”
― DJP, Friday, 27 November 2020 23:30 (three years ago) link
I also though that intercutting Mark losing interest and doing other things justified the length of the sketch, which I did find hilarious

I have to say, this is definitely a show to watch drunk and/or stoned. The last episode ramped the ridic up to mental levels.
I liked a few of the Glennridge YT episodes too - the foursquare/downball one was pitch-perfect suburban aussie school in a way Chris Lillie wishes he could aspire to. Well, except maybe for the stabbing.

The geezers who turn up pretending to be South African by constantly referencing District 9 and Sugarman but then doing equally bad impressions of other accents had me going

Trayce, the foursquare YT video was close enough to the American experience that it had me in stitches

Yeah, it was this observation I liked about it. Shouting 'FOCKIN PRONS!' has become a default whenever people of a certain age try and do an SA accent.

about 50% of my running internal monologue is quotes from this show
I have begun saying "look at your ______"/"these are my favorite __________" about practically everything
Also, my partner memorized the first two verses of "Relatable" and starts rapping it randomly

Which, funnily enough so do they, their studio/office is a few blocks away from my house.

My partner has incorporated "Let's lock that in" into his corporate-speak and it's the funniest fucking thing to hear on his end of a conference call because I know running through his head is "Every morning at 7, I take the DVS box set of The Crown and pop the whole thing in my mouth, yum yum yum"
