Hadn't heard the old Windows 3.1 startup/'ta-daa!' sound in ages, before it triumphantly sounded after they 'downloaded' and wiped Decker's memories, which had me in stitches.

i'm pretty sure this is the funniest thing i've ever seen
The effort put into making every non-Tim aspect of the trial 100% convincing was a masterstroke.

tim dipping the paper into the coffee being like "would this paper tell me if this coffee was caffeinated or not" lmao
in a way this show is an incredible indictment of conservative male arrogance and ignorance

Yes, a lot of comedians have been exposed as being out of their depth on this stuff in the Trump era but Tim has a great handle on it.
― Chris L, Friday, 2 August 2019 12:56 (five years ago) link
There's a video I can't find right now (I think/assume from Office Hours) where a sad right-wing dude calls in with an agenda and Tim handles him with a calm alacrity I doubt I could muster. He not only gets it, he gets how to confront and dismantle it.

More than in a way- given Tim's (and Vic Berger's) focus on that exact type of person lately I feel most of his character takes direct inspiration. And Decker is straight up an alternate universe where Trump is an even shittier Steven Seagal.

having missed previous Oscar specials I was a little confused about Mark's voice coming from his comatose gold-encrusted body - what exactly was going on there
― Οὖτις, Friday, 2 August 2019 16:30 (five years ago) link
There was a moment during the 'Empty Bottle' reveal where Axiom suddenly looks totally crestfallen and Tim lost a little of his swagger, this subtle and brief but utterly magical moment where Ax seems to recognize that this monster has taken so much more than just his right hand. And then of course everything goes back to normal immediately thereafter.

Duuuuuude, you can't skip the Oscar specials.
(SPOILER: they nearly killed him during the previous Oscar special when they sealed him in an old-school diving suit with no air supply.)

I didn't "skip" them, they are not streaming on Adult Swim!
I got that he'd been injured/nearly killed, I just didn't understand how his voice was coming out of his body. They had him wired to some contraption...?

They’re on YouTube!
― Vape Store (crüt), Friday, 2 August 2019 21:43 (five years ago) link
Also the voice was just clips from his WC fields bits
I dont watch anything on youtube thats longer than 5 minutes, hate watching show or films on a tiny screen

If you have cable or a game console or a Roku or whatever, YT is generally available as an app.

Tongue-twister objection slays me.I think I've realized my favorite bit part in this entire endeavor is 'James Dean' as Dracula. I need a supercut of his every non-verbal utterance (Aahhh! Ehhh!). And 'James Dean' generally, who comes across as a geriatric juvenile delinquent.
