making this comment to hold myself accountable!!! I will have the third one up by Feb 20th :-) don't have time to work on it now, so i'll do it during my reading break.
Thomas constantly stopping the plot just to figure out what their plot even is gives me life. Bonus shout out to when he stays in character while desperately trying to remember who that character is 😂
in one of their interviews didn't tom say that he literally had no idea what was going on because he forgot that the woman from the beginning mention there were aliens living on campus so he just thought ben had gone mental 😂
The way they know each other so well that Ben prompts “what do you want me to do again?” hoping Thomas will get it and Thomas IMMEDIATELY catches on and does the There Will Be Blood/SNL milkshake sketch “abandon your boy!” impression.... Psychic comedy connection
"Jason, are you going to treat him okay?" "No 😊" What a satisfying penny-drop, because you couldn't have paid me to believe that Jason wasn't an absolute chaos creature from the beginning.
also luv when Thomas as Stanley is like "and I'm.. invol- an invoun... I'm an incel" because Ben looks so proud and entertained and encouraging his face is saying 'you got it man' and im obsessed
Ben’s Stanley: “Emily you’re very smart :)” Tommy’s Stanley: “don’t go in that doorrrrrrr” Ben’s Jason: “verbal consent!” Tommy’s Jason: *”I’m going to treat him horribly!”*
my favourite line from this episode is Ben saying "I'm just a boy" as Jason the alien it's just the cutest sweetest creepiest most chaotic thing ever and it gets me everytime
I have watched the show and compilations of it multiple times but your edits were the best additions ever! "In the ha-ha biz we call that a callback"? Amazing. Didn't think it was possible but the whole show seems even funnier now lmao.
I keep on getting loads of videos from this improv show (???) and I have no clue who these guys are or the context but it’s hilarious. What are their names I need more!!
Thomas Middleditch and Ben Schwartz! They have a comedy series on Netflix called "Middleditch & Schwartz" and that's where these vids come from. The special has three eps, and this specific video is a compilation of the second one. highly highly recommend watching all three shows if you can! funniest things ive ever watched
Watch _Middleditch & Schwartz_ on Netflix if you haven't, they're pretty awesome improv specials! This is an edited version of the second one, but there are three total.
