Each episode of the series consists of several pre-taped sketches starring the two actors. A reality camera crew follows the life of in prison three-part sketch.
Also, this is kind of the origin of the dynamic. From the teacher draft, to the grades scrolling along the bottom, to the overserious car commercial, to the final highlight, this bit kills. The humor comes from the men being torn between taking their shot or backing off, as the women drunkenly talk about black men as if they are exotic animals.
OT: Key & Peele is corny as ****. - Simple and effective, and all too real. I still don't really watch full episodes yet, but they have some great material for sure.
But also not that surprising, considering the level of care and attention that seemed to go into every sketch from the top down — from the subversive, racially aware sketches that , to the many others about farts. What Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key accomplished as comedic performers will be recognized for years to come, as will the directing talents of Peter Atencio, who turned even the silliest ideas into memorable short films; and the writers, who picked through both the absurd and the topical oftentimes simultaneously with a fine-tooth comb. To settle on a ranking, I tried to combine multiple factors — subversive qualities, good, old-fashioned LOLs, and viral success — into each decision. I probably failed, in some capacity. Here they try their hand at picking up ladies at the gym. Ends with a Comedy Central zinger. But also, the parents are aliens? Some delicious Key physical bits, as per usual, but the sketch drags on a bit too long. This is the point where they started getting more yell-y and less jokey, though the concept remained strong. Bite his dick off? Even from the masseuse. I have nothing to say about this! The visualizations are a little much. I do, however, enjoy their fun grindy dance. Also, we learn here that her favorite film is The Green Mile. Sensei Doug Duggart is mostly a pervert. Key laughs, then sobs, then screams, all before taking the fastest pee ever and leaving. He opens crinkly candy and takes all suggestions literally. Richard Schiff guest-stars as a U. Suddenly, he pulls out a satellite phone, loads of planes appear in the sky, and he welcomes them to democracy. And in turn, so can this sketch. Here, Levi literally has lightning in a bottle. But a house is a tiny mansion. A supermarket is a tiny mansion that has food in it. They say nice things about Mexicans, Asians, blacks, and Indians in big southern accents in the tone of racist dickheads. Praise the high production values in this sketch. And that swastika is just a movie prop, like a rubber chicken. The surrealism mostly works. Even for traffic reporters. Key is a soldier who goes straight for the dog, ignoring the kids. Under a minute, gets the job done. When the truth is revealed, Key tries to repent. But when Zachary reveals himself to be an evil, evil child … what are you gonna do? This sketch was basically an excuse to watch Key get his ass kicked in different, exciting ways. This sketch basically builds toward its diabolical final line. IS IT AGAINST THE LAW? This was a super-funny idea that sort of devolved into chaos, but had a lovely button at the end. Here, he joins a sex-addict support group. This sketch essentially works as a build to its button, when it turns out Peele and his nice girlfriend are crackheads because of course they are. Let it be known: I will use the word aplomb once again on this list. Luther was speaking for all of us here. Not good is the answer. Not good at all. He tries out each bed using highly sexual physical gestures. Actually one of several characters that involves Peele performing a sexual act by himself, to great comic effect. The physical humor is exactly as funny as it sounds. They also do pretty delectable Kilmer impressions. Like pre—old school old-school. The button is perfect. The end of this sketch elicited smiles from everyone in the room I first watched this in, in case that kind of thing appeals to you. Tompkins shoves paper in his mouth and tapes it to his face in this ode to political reverse psychology. Turns out he was only in horribly racist old Hollywood movies. This sketch could have been about a minute shorter, but all the actors turn in solid performances. Good cameo by the office guy with Benjamin Button disease the first of two Benjamin Button refs! Hope for the best of both worlds. Extra points for a bevy of mostly realistic celebrity impersonations, including Lil Jon Morgan Freeman could use some work, though. As someone who was successfully conned in real life in an eerily similar situation, this got personal. Who put the running order together? Another huge YouTube hit for the show. This app can help. Rob Delaney, unfortunately, cannot. Ends with a welcomed Twilight Zone reference. Cheers to the button of this sketch, when a doctor tells them the physical results of Dicknanigans have not been good for their balls. This does involve Peele making weird noises and weird voices, which I always enjoy. Peele nails the devil-child thing, just as he nailed the hall-of-mirrors psychopath earlier in this same episode and later on down this list. It was fun being a dentist. A wondrous bit of physical nonsense that lasts a welcomed eternity. So good, in fact, that she manages to completely reverse the whole thing. André 3000 wears a Peter Pan hat and a bow tie and does a lot of voices that bother Big Boi. He also has a magical pinwheel. Garby is such a delightful character, one could listen to him mispronounce names all day. The members of LMFAO are locked in their own continuous party loop. Easy, breezy, beautiful: fart as joke button. And, yes, he will share all his expertise with you. Mahina a real man at the office, or is he a living mop in a suit? Extra points to those kids for keeping straight faces the whole time. Simple and effective, and all too real. Side note: Props to the woman who played the teacher in this sketch. She really goes full-throttle. All you need to know is: Tubman was the original master of parkour. Peele plays a grizzled specialist, retired to the woods, who could once catch a bullet with his face, but has gotten too old to keep up. The silliness of this one is riveting. This was no exception. The answer is never. An homage to the highest degree. But what happens when the detective solves the hall of mirrors and finds the psycho? This sketch answers that question. Funny, and extremely well-shot. Great performances from both in this one. Even if he is receiving pizza from the cops, and a tiny motorized car. How many times can I praise the production-design team in this list? Bless that tiny motorized car. Sometimes liabilities have to be … taken care of. And his helmet is an apple pie. And that cartoon squirrel says you need medical attention. From the music to the spot-on graphics, this sketch is gold. Here is no exception, as Peele plays a man whose anxiety increases with every question his lady-friend poses about his online search history and why it keeps mysteriously getting deleted. A solid build, and a lovely button to cap it off. This also means occasionally pulling his dick out and jerking off on things. Culminating in an epic, exorcism-style battle between the two women and Satan himself, this sketch turns it up to 11 and keeps going. Then it rains down. A beautifully shot scene of a mafia surprise party that goes horribly, murderously wrong. T rap PSA of yesteryear culminates with quite the reveal: Mr. You can do anything. Boys and girls ages 8 through 12, listen to my voice: You are immortal. A perfectly executed mockumentary about an inner-city Hogwarts. Yes, more props to the props team. From the teacher draft, to the grades scrolling along the bottom, to the overserious car commercial, to the final highlight, this bit kills. Still, this faux-infomercial about Ghostbusters theme singer Ray Parker Jr. Also, side note: Has there ever been a better summation of Apt Pupil through song? However, his definition of crazy involves pulling his pants down and collecting multiple punch cards from the same fro-yo place. The final winning hat is a lesson in sketch-button perfection. Nothing made me laugh harder than his first subtle look to the camera. Comedy students should study this for years to come. Jacqueline and Denise are two women about to fight, but first they have to remove their jewelry, their nails, their contacts, their bras, their Spanx, and their actual bodies, revealing two little girls stacked on top of each other. Watching him find new ways to not-laugh like an insane person is a thing of beauty. Then that horrifying alien sound … 11. A novel idea turned into a truly wonderful sketch. When Key is arrested by a white cop for doing nothing, he bumps his head and is transported by a magical homeless man to Negrotown, a world where black people can wear hoodies, hail cabs, and get their loans approved. The final beat — where the cop tells Key the truth about Negrotown — is aptly stark and, somehow, exactly the ending required. A look at hecklers through a new lens, and one of the straight-up funniest sketches the show ever gave us. Liam Neeson s forever. Bruce Willis es forever. This one is just wonderfully funny and unpredictable, and left us with another classic character just in time for the finale. Nor will I forget combining the words fork and spoon into fpoon. The player formerly known as Mousecop. Long live the king.
Funny, and extremely well-shot. He tries out each bed using highly sexual physical gestures. Nor will I forget combining the words fork and spoon into fpoon. And he erases his history. That killed me for some reason. Cedric Yarbrough Over their five seasons, I was lucky to do two sketches with Jordan and Keegan. Still, this faux-infomercial about Ghostbusters theme singer Ray Parker Jr. Here is no exception, as Peele plays a man whose anxiety increases with every question his lady-friend poses about his online search history and why it keeps mysteriously getting deleted.
