That's like saying a comedian relied too heavily on jokes. But it's not really-- it references the 80s sitcom/animated/medical intros but it then strays into "wacky" territory with the Lars von trier pie and the murderer. It seems like it's caught in two minds - do a spoof or do a crazy, 4th wall breaking manhunt thing. To me parodies are at their most amusing when they're as close as the original as possible, exposing the innate hilarity of the source material taken just slightly out of its context. The Jim and Derrick episode is probably my fav awesome show because it is almost imperceptible to a vh1 piece of shit TV show from 2003. It takes a lot of work and I don't think this one had enough ideas to warrant seeing it 8-9 times on my fb feed lol I'm a bitch aren't i Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide dr lopez's signature Hide all signatures On 11/24/2015 at 12:29 PM, Salvatorin said: I feel there is a baobab tree growing out of my head, its leaves stretch up to the heavens Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/85651-too-many-cooks-this-should-be-the-end-of-all-internets/#findComment-2248340 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alzado Posted November 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) Furthermore, there is more than one way to make a parody. You could parody 80's TV by doing a full episode. They are doing it via the credits of TV shows from all the different genres of the era. And in each the point is to show how those shows simplistically showcased black and white, right and wrong. it's especially brilliant considering that they show the dark underside that is the counterpoint to that black and white perspective. The serial killer doesn't get revealed until midway through the running time, but if you watch closely he's actually present in many of the shots starting very early in the clip.

Amen Lare Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 I had a similar idea ready for pitching on TV (not US), but i backed down coz it looked too heavy minded with references for Joyce's stream of consciousness technique. I planned to use "in the previous episodes" drawn out to the similar effect. I'm not sure that creepy murderer is good addition, but really, who the fuck cares.

So you're saying it should of relied less on tv nostalgia tropes since it didn't rely entirely on tv nostalgia tropes? I'm confused... I think the murder part was less funny than the parody element, but it was generally excellent. They had to do something wacky to make it 11 minutes long...

Alzado Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 It's fun to see how early you can notice Bill the killer in the clip.

KovalainenFanBoy Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 The psycho killer idea would have been better if it had been more subtle, like just having him creep in the background, I agree with lopez in that. It went from parody to horror to parody, I don't know, it didn't flow well.

Guest bitroast Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 I guess it's hard to keep momentum going for a solid 10 minutes straight. like, the idea of the tv show openings going for 10 minutes would probably still be funny but without having something to break it up it would probably have a weird monotonous downward sloping feel to watching it.. no momentum. hehehe. not sure if that validates the joke if you still don't feel the joke worked either way I guess, but still..
