Mitchell & Webb - All the "Behind The Scenes" Skits

[@Idle_Wilder]

The sketch that ends "That's the penultimate line." is one of the cleverest bits of comedy sketch writing I've ever seen

[@jonlivesley]

Apart from the fact that according to the script David wasn't supposed to say "it goes on forever"

[@yourstruly4679]

The first sketch is hilarious considering where we're watching it.

[@sambarker7930]

And also that David Mitchell has a show on Dave now

The lights did indeed go out all over television

[@hrmpug1092]

@@That2Jno they indeed did not, the quality of television in recent years has only been increasing, we are living (albeit it seems, in a fading) in the golden age of TV.

" ....since Watergate-gate" is from one of my forever faves, and now all these 'BTSs" are in one place!

[@kiwimanetta]

"I'm just trying to get to the root of why you felt the need to ask such a humiliating question..." is the second harshest sentence ever said.... followed closely by "Yes, it is no..."

[@athulfgeirsson]

I think of "yes it is no" all the time

[@lolipedofin]

So... "Yes, it is no..." is the third harshest sentence??

[@99Plastics]

To this day some say, after seeing this Ricky Gervais stole the idea to use for extrass.

[@PaddyRoon7]

Wouldn't be surprised, he's been using the same material for decades too

[@hugolindum7728]

Artists of all kinds are constantly adapting existing ideas. Extras can be seen as a development of the Office; where you see the back story of an office environment, and Extras was the same but in film sets.

[@livebarylivebary]

I think you guys are missing mr plastic's joke that Extras came out before mitchell and webb look.

[@fishyc150]

Ironically the writer of the sitcom who creates the lines for the character who has read "stalingrad" doesn't actually know anything about stalingrad judging by the lines he wrote for the character that had supposedly read the book "stalingrad". So the writer, the actor and the character all know very little about the battle.

[@rooty]

Sketch comedy is one of the cheapest things you can possibly make. And it's all paid for by the license fee, not to mention the all the money they get by reselling what's already been bought and paid for to other countries. If they STILL can't pay the bills without relying on dvd sales, it speaks more of chronic mismanagement and financial incompetence than it does of changing viewer habits. It's the same with videogames, where multi billion dollar companies never stop bitching and whining about how they can't cover development costs without unethically nickel and diming the consumer to death and pushing gambling addictions onto literal children, despite selling tens of millions of copies at extortionate prices. How about you scale back the ludicrous budgets that you apparently can't afford, rather than blaming absolutely everybody but yourself for your own brain dead decisions.

[@purpleheart3036]

Dude its just a comedy sketch it wasnt real ....

[@rooty]

@@purpleheart3036 the joke is based o an actual problem, that's what makes it funny. Otherwise it would be a non-sequitur. There is actually a budgeting problem at the BBC (which is why they had to axe BBC 3 etc). That's the whole premise of the sketch.
