That Mitchell and Webb Look S04E04 1/3

Re uploaded now in sync Part 2 • That Mitchell and Webb...

[@depture]

"Stop, I'm killing you" funniest line of the episode.

[@FlyingFox86]

I suspect nobody will read this, but I like how the parody of weird continental European tv-shows is actually what some British shows look like to us on the continent.

[@advancelast1740]

Flying Fox you were right....I didn’t read this

[@spudragious]

@@advancelast1740 me neither

[@andrewa9694]

read what? which continent?

[@waynemarvin5661]

I was going to read it, but I was afraid. I didn't read any of the other comments, either. Same reason.

[@jackdempster1182]

Does anyone know what's going on here? I'm not reading any of it

[@SacredNutrino]

The opening clip and things like 'remain indoors' makes me think there two could make a very good horror movie

[@jayess8714]

The small office sketch. Just genius.

[@ChickSage]

That southern accent was reminiscent of Jude Law's performance, in 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil' :)

[@strawberryiguana]

Robert saying "dress" at 7:23 had me gasping for breath due to laughing so hard! Probably the best delivery of that word ever in the history of mankind.

[@wheelmanstan]

as a southerner I just gotta say, when Webb did that accent, well tried lol, I laughed my ass off. even American actors fuck that up from time to time

[@andrew_owens7680]

As another southerner, there isn't a "Southern" accent. There are Georgia accents, Texas accents, Louisiana accents, North Carolina accents, etc. Hollywood does even worse with the Arab world, where they have characters from the Gulf speaking in Moroccan dialect which most Arab speakers wouldn't even understand. Probably every Arab speaking country on earth has been shot in Morocco. Look it up.

[@wheelmanstan]

@@andrew_owens7680 True, but Hollywood tries to only do an old south Georgia accent for the most part. They're still living in the Gone With the Wind days. I'm always pissed off by how bad the fake "southern" accents are. Nothing is better than casting people from those actual areas. It brings so much more to the scene, far more than just the way words are pronounced. IMO directors are fools to let actors, famous or not, attempt accents like that when they have to sell it so well or else the scene's unravel. They hire Brits to do southern accents! Some Brits are damn good, but not that good. I had no idea about the Moroccan stuff. Right now I'm watching a couple shows that are supposed to take place in Colorado and Montana but are filmed in Canada. They're filming more and more stuff in Canada and Georgia these days. They seem to fake locations pretty well, but now with the virus it's even harder to fake anything. Yep, it's a 9 year old post I don't even remember writing and I am still alive!

@@charliewallace7197 Have you seen Victoria? Her HIGNFY videos on YT have probably engendered more shameless drooling among male commentators than all of PornHub

[@robertelmer2772]

this makes brilliant sense when you are drunk

[@kemp10]

damn being from the southern u.s. i was really hoping to hear them do the accents

[@Joecoleman84]

I thought they did an amazing job! No?

[@eneedham789]

They’re playing Brazilian music in the Bavarian sketch 😂

[@sheepception2049]

How Bavarian of them!

[@shuster6015]

@Misishaxi continuing where youreoverhere left off: "He thinks this is a trust program. He thinks I'm his friend. he's taking me around the world in a fucking balloon! We never land! Every time I wake up, there's more of these. I think they're needle marks." "Who are you talking to?" "I miss you Rebecca. Tell the kids I love them. If you see this, if anyone sees this, send help. It's not television."

[@Shelldamage]

So underrated!

[@texasoilfields]

This is the first time I've seen the KKK in a comedy sketch :)

[@aeyeth]

You know you're a geologist when you see report 4 and yell at the computer. Waaaaay too much mica.

[@DrChalkwithering]

@Feostru Presumably they just saw the "lulz" as an added bonus.

[@rosekadoges]

i'm just a girl, who can't say no. HAHAHAAAAAAA

Are Mitchell and Webb my generation's successors to Fry and Laurie

We're not doing the accent...

That’s Welsh lol

What's the first one with the balloon about?

[@varflane]

Rob Webb is John Malkovich - only funnier.

[@iroveashe]

I can see David's iris!

[@highway234]

you think rob webb might really be stumped by american accents? he did a pretty good one in "speedo" but he used the word "shag," which americans never use, and here they're both playing southern american racists from croydon.

[@RozarSmacco]

Rob (speedo) also said hu-more which no American says other than that and shag...pretty good

[@robevans1474]

Wasn't the point of that sketch that the show was written by British writers who did no research on America?

[@tasteofcoda]

love the kkk sketch

[@janeeyre1990]

The KKK sketch was brilliant.

[@jorenvonk]

By the way, if the opening song is a song and nog just a jingle, can anyone tell me what song it is? Thanks!

[@dnomyarnostaw]

A bit late, but ""Alive & Amplified" by The Mooney Suzuk"

[@krashd]

@@dnomyarnostaw It's incredibly similar but not the same.

[@DarkNeoTrix]

Iv'e never heard of a British program running in seasons!. Season is the American term. "It CAN be either", but 99% of the time it's series when referring to programs made and broadcast in the UK.

[@johnpetermalcolm]

You're my wife now, Dave :)

[@dj91marks]

anyone know what the tune is in the reports mode sketch?

[@edwardianed]

Six years late, but it's Tico-Tico no Fubá by Zequinha de Abreu.

[@dmd8552]

Ruined with the canned laughter.

[@user-bc9mn7gq2c]

Like the "Southern sketch" but what's so hard about a US Southern accent? Just add a sing-song drawl to everything, broaden the ah sounds, turn the long i into a diphthong, add a trace of w to ou when in the middle of a word and basically keep the British soft r. At least you'd be pretty close and we in the US would at worse maybe think you were from Missouri.

[@kantfail]

the small office scene is robbed from the three stooges

[@Kretain]

why do the uploaders of mithcell and webb things always cut out the god damn punchline-.-

[@jr7845]

Copy right

[@wattage2007]

I'm guessing the game show sketches, overly long-winded and not quite as funny as the other sketches are Robert Webb's creations?
