Mr Show - Josh Fenderman

[@ralphiecifaretto8961]

I don't know why showing that dance over and over again is the funniest thing ever, but it's hard to look away!

[@SpaceBat83]

That's exactly what keeps me coming back.

[@oldironsides4107]

Hilarious

[@planescaped]

saw that thumbnail and the rope pull stayin' alive combo instantly came back despite not seeing this skit in 6+ years.

[@TheSyl63]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6DddoGKi9qXaZI odell doing his best josh fenderman 20 years after this sketch is my favourite thing

[@PistolP33]

When it first came out I was addicted to the dance. Love it

[@chrisdulworth4555]

Best documentary about Corey Feldman ive seen.

[@norarobichaud783]

I reference this every time I see Corey Feldman sadly lol 😂

[@horseytown]

I wish I could rewatch this again for the first time and experience again the moment of realization that they were just keep cutting to the same clip of him dancing.

[@marshallc6885]

horseytown it took about 2/3 of the video and then i realized they’re not gonna change it aren’t they

[@Balthorium]

The first time I saw this I just about suffocated laughing. Mr. Show is the all time most hilarious series of all time.

[@悪臭-p9p]

I wish this wasn't the first comment seen below the video. Spoiled it.

[@horseytown]

@@悪臭-p9p sorry 😣

[@mvader7188]

SNL did a sketch of an awards show that kept cutting to the same shot of lou diamond Phillips laughing. Regardless of the humor or lack thereof they kept going back to that shot. I think they were ripping shit on either the Mets or the Jets and it just kept going...

[@MrBank325]

I remember this guy. He was one of Hollywood's toppest young stars.

[@v-town1980]

MrBank325 yes, and he made millions of thousands of hundreds of dollars.

[@joshuadickinson]

He was ranked 3 out of 10 on the top 12 list!

[@thegadflygang5381]

The two Josh's were the up and coming stars of the 80s. Unfortunately Josh Horowitz is no longer with us, but we still have Josh Fenderman

[@seths.4531]

Been trying to do this dance my whole life

[@brianpitts922]

Worm Television right? its a thing of beauty

[@robertriggins9140]

My brother and I do the Fenderman every chance we get. Including at Kauffman Stadium everytime the Royals score a run. Or just about anytime anything good happens. Ever. So good.

[@jjmah7]

How far along are you?

[@jamesk3612]

"3 of his 6 films were in the top 10 out of 12 of the best movies" underrated line

[@bellbro62]

I watched some behind the scenes footage of Bob and David making their new show and Bob improvised a line similar to that. Now every time I see a joke like this in Mr. Show I know Bob wrote it and it's just hilarious that he's fascinated by these never-ending sentences.

[@Trig242]

"Why cant you let me be me? WOOOOO!" is a phrase I think about way too much in my day to day life

[@punksofnewengland]

Right there with ya lmao

[@BezoRazo]

One of the rare instances in which live studio audience laughter actually adds to the comedy. Hearing them catch on to the fact that the same dance footage is being reused is solid gold.

[@InfiniteRhombus]

thats the best part

[@ShowDonkeys]

It’s a live audience

[@smokyprogg]

See also: "The Story of Everest" sketch where they get progressively more annoyed

[@dmblum1]

@@smokyprogg The reason the audience really got pissed is that it took a long time to reset all the figurine thingys. I really getting the DVDs and listening to the commentary for this, it's really funny.

[@samweisberg]

I wish more people laughed at Jill Talley’s lines-she’s sublimely funny!!

[@mrmusickhimself]

I've been trying to master that dance for years to no avail. Quarantine is as good a time as any to not only rewatch all of Mr. Show, but nail that dance.

[@last808]

Did you do it? Did you nail the dance?!

[@alexbaum2204]

Sooooo…. How’d it go???

[@earthwormjimjones]

Corey Haim's face + Corey Feldman's life 💯 still one of their best skits 😂

[@JerFhilm]

Goddamn Mr. Show was the shit. Mocking that E True Hollywood story repetition of the same scenes and Corey Feldman both at once.

[@LeoVader]

Trying to keep quiet watching this because my family's asleep, praying that dance wouldn't show up anymore, fearing my inevitable laughter would wake everyone up. It did.

[@jellofan1578]

hi leo:)

[@bendeco]

I'll have you know that Sliced Bread 2 Electric Boogaloo is one of my all-time favorite movies that I like to watch when I'm in the mood for novelty.

[@mvader7188]

Didn't that star a young Shelley Long?

[@TheoBrixtonTheKid]

I about lost my shit when I saw him do the dance on the courthouse steps. Rofl. It was pumpkininny.

[@billyjackoff]

"WOOOOO!!!"

[@Timoth1983]

Whats even funnier about this is how E!'s True Hollywood Story is exactly like this.

[@livardo]

can't get enough of that fucking dance man.

[@mvader7188]

"Tens of millions of hundreds of thousands of dollars".

[@Isaacandjed]

that rounds out to quadrillions of dollars, interestingly enough

[@grantwilliams2650]

@@Isaacandjed how did you calculate it btw?

[@DrZaius3141]

@@grantwilliams2650 Incorrectly. It's trillions. 10 x 1 000 000 x 100 x 1 000 = 1 000 000 000 000 = 1 trillion (in US progression, otherwise you could call it a billion - either way it's 12 zeroes)

[@brocktoon8]

The way they keep gratuitously playing that same "Corey Feldman-like" star walk clip - and even superimpose it in the background in the modern-day Josh interview - and then he does the same dance after his trial on the court steps makes me SO HAPPY.

[@theramplocal]

Josh fendermans band is honesty in motion, Corey Feldmans band is the truth movement. Perfection

[@brocktoon8]

@@theramplocal So true : )

[@alexg3591]

@@brocktoon8 This skit is based on Corey Feldman's absurd '90s VH1 Behind the Music interview.

Dear god that dance XD!

[@kev3d]

Jill Talley is strangely adorable. Spongebob did alright.

[@mvader7188]

Yes he did

[@Bolgernow]

Love this sketch: "Warning, This Dollar Is Not Yours After You Spend It"

[@iIliterati]

The scene where he is dancing is actually filmed where Bob Odenkirk later got his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

[@AbsurdistAgent]

I’ve been religiously watching this bit on a regular basis for over twenty years, and it STILL makes me laugh

[@Jeffy888]

Time to watch it again

[@FlagtopProductions]

Two weeks ago, I saw Corey Feldman in person and what was he wearing, you may ask? White fedora, matching scarf, matching suit jacket, giant sunglasses which he wore indoors the whole time. I think of Feldman, I automatically think of this sketch and I laugh my cunt off.

[@bustercaps]

That dance is why this is one of my favorite sketches.

[@GrassValleyGreg]

The Pumpkinninny kid is one of the single best casting decisions they ever made on Mr. Show lol

[@saucers79]

William Van Landingham the 3rd.

[@vasectomyfail442]

All good, but I'm a fan of Wicked Scepter and Monster Parties as well.

[@dragons_red]

For me it's easier to list the handful of skits that aren't that good

[@413BattleLeague]

the fact the continuous showing of the same dance clip was the inside joke of the whole sketch is amazing. Documentaries like this on VH1 at the time always kept playing the same clip back several times throughout the show. Mr Show was amazing

[@MsFelinaFox]

I looked this up because I randomly remembered the dance today

[@vrandolph]

Jill Talley is priceless in this sketch--"a moneybag with teeth." LOL. Seriously, all I have to do is think about the "Josh Fenderman dance" and I will burst out laughing wherever I am.

[@OrangeChrome]

I wish EVERY show was Mr. Show!

[@2taggs2]

HA HA @ 1:28-1:34 He yells action and the actors just look at eachother and walk around - which makes the director happy and says: "Great job! Great job!" Love it!

[@thereisnocontenthere]

This sketch is suddenly so relevant. Anyone seen Corey Feldman's new music video "Go 4 It"?

[@ja3482]

It's 2024 and Corey Feldman is still touring with the schtick being satirized here in the 90s. I'm not joking. He's opening for Fred Durst.

[@y_yy_2844]

I have to wonder if this is where the "Electric Boogaloo" meme got started. 1:31 Know Your Meme says it first referred to something Wil Wheaton did in 2001, but that was as an online meme. This Mr. Show episode is from 1998 so maybe that was the first use of it as satire.

[@FiveInchTaint]

So, the dance movie Breakin' had a sequel called Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo (1984). Mr. Show was referencing that. I think people took it and ran with it as a joke regarding any shitty sequel, so you're probably right.

[@y_yy_2844]

@@FiveInchTaint Right, thank you for pointing out the original title using it for a serious (though awful) movie... this is the first reference I know of where it's used as a joke to mock a sequel.
