thread of loving key and peele

My friend got to act w/Key in ad shot in Houston during the Super Bowl. She said he was really awesome and nice.

with his first film, he’s already an American Buñuel.

get out is v good and i should probably start a thread about it

yes plz

yes.

realllllly want to see it

can't stop saying 'That's the combat seat, Jonathan Livingston Seagull' this week

I was *I* was high on pot-enuse...

I still think of the ending to that mattress shopping sketch though I never quite figured out what the implication was

the Turbulence flight sketch still kills me. esp the way Peele slides over after Key tries to get out of his aisle to take a shit

also every time Key hits the roof of the plane due to turbulence

Come on Mr. Computer, throw me a bone! Lawnmower man! Get up offa my lawn

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

when armageddon is near, you better get outta here. lookin like a DEEP IMPACT. I ain't afraid of no 'stroid.

saw at the cinema yesterday: trailer for Toy Story 4 featuring Key & Peele doing their parking valet characters, enthusing about Buzz Lightyears

i saw that the other day:D

lmao I've never seen this one, this might be my favorite character they've done

I had seen it, but yes

have we really never done a K&P sketch poll???

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

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

so many brilliant sketches but very very hard not to vote for Continental Breakfast

Substitute Teacher I for me

Football drafts. Or maybe hip-hop hype man, Peele is so perfectly ott in that one.

Draxt. Them. Sklountz.

Neider the weel no the gumption

The heart nor the gumption excuse me

top 4 for me -
Big Boi & Andre meet in a coffee shop
I said biiiiiiiiiitch
"I'm gonna fuck you in the ass"
MMA pre-fight trash talk

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

continental breakfast suffers amidst this competition for its so-so ending imo

to be fair, some of the best comedy sketches ever have so-so endings

I never saw the Big Boi/Andre sketch, holy lol

fuck I forgot about that one

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

cat poster made me laugh so much

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

can't believe anyone doesn't like the ending of continental breakfast

I can't believe I totally forgot about the aerobics sketch.

Has Keanu aged well? I remember it being very unfunny when I first tried to watch it (never finished it).

I watched maybe 30 minutes and bailed. One-joke movie.

(I guess it's possible the other jokes came later.)

I watched the whole thing and it was bad

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 never saw the Big Boi/Andre sketch, holy lol

lmao oh my god

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?

Maybe find the Anna Faris parts online somewhere.

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

INSUBORDINATE! AND CHURLISH!
