​@eliseo5416 I haven't seen the Brazil episode but in TV and movies there are shots that are edited to appear as a single take, although individual scenes can have many different cuts. Single camera sitcoms like Schitts Creek, Abbott Elementary, and The Office use cutting and zooming within a scene for comedy pretty often. In the animated world it's common too and can most easily be seen with the perspective change of Pim and DJ Spit in this video

The episode called pin turns green is actually a really obscure reference to the season 1 dvd commentary, where Zach hazel says that originally pin was going to be green, but they thought it would give the main cast too gross of a colour palette.

[@user-bk4zq6qw8u]

I like how Pim and Charlie never actually solve problems with their clients themself. They usually fail. It always comes to some weird coincidence or another random character to end the job. 1. They fail to make Desmond smile. It just turns out he loves to hurt little purple guys, P&C didn't even know their office is infested with them. 2. All their attempts to help Mr Frog return his show failed. His apology wouldn't necessarily work. He just murders a guy and that's what pleases his fans. P&C were shocked. 3. Pim made a mistake with Shrimpina, and Charlie failed to make Shrimp grow confidence. Lucky Shrimp, the girl turns out to be a fan of Mouse Quest. 4. P&C just get handed the solution of Saulty's murder case by Century Egg. 5. They kill Mip by accident. Moreover, they deliver the bomb to Princess, who luckily has good reaction. 6. It's Mr Boss who deals with Frowning Friends, and Renaissance dudes "finish the job". 7. Both Pim and Charlie failed to help their respective clients in Gwimbly episode. It just happens for two psychos to run into each other, which resulted in two game mascots come up with Smash bros type game. 8. Jimbles smiles because he realises himself that he is a moron, which is reflected in a successful speech. He still loses. 9. P&C fail to make brothers reunite. It's sudden successful homunculus who stops their conflict. Moral of the story? It all comes down to luck when you are two fairly normal dudes in a wacky f'ed up world trying to make people smile.

15:18 The Spamtopia episode is also one of my faves because it pays off a seemingly disconnected plot thread from S1 (the Simon S. Salty episode). During the fun twins interview, Charlie doesn't understand what they're saying but Pim does because he can speak Spamish. The twins also acid spit on him seemingly randomly until you realize they did it because Pim made direct eye contact with them which is a sign of disrespect and the only rule in Spamtopia that's punishable by death

Funny thing about the Doug Walker cameo, I was at a con when it happened, and the cosplay i planned for the next day was a nostalgia critic one, so his appearance definitely made it more topical for me.

[@edenwayne8407]

Alan is actually the accountant which is why he doesn't really show any interest in making people smile, that's just not his job. It also explains why Pim and Charlie wear clothes but Alan and Glep are naked most of the time, critters like them prefer not to wear clothes, but Pim and Charlie have to meet a lot of other species so they wear clothes to make them more comfortable, but since Alan and Glep works in the office, they don't have to do that.

18:15 the smiling friends couldn’t just go to the beach because A. They had their luggage with them which they were planning on dropping off at the hotel which was mentioned at the start of the episode B. They were already in the airport when they found the flight back home so they wouldn’t have to go through Security C. There is a likelihood where there is no other flights back to LA that day since it was already 4:00 and getting late so they would want to risk being stranded in a foreign country with no hotel. D. They were already pretty bummed out because Pim forgot to get the hotel room and just wanted to return home

Something I noticed in the Mip episode, is that when Mip is accidentally killed by Pim, Mip tells Pim to deliver the gift, without Charlie. I think this is Mip’s way of getting back at Pim, knowing he would either take the blame, or die in the blast. Mip also wouldn’t want Charlie to go, because he fell in love with him.

[@AmazonessKing01]

32:52 The tooth head guy voice actor is puerto rican, which is why it is sort of ironic and very funny for him to say he wanted to kill all puerto ricans.

[@wumbojet]

It's so funny hearing someone who seemingly doesn't know about Zach Hadel's humor outside of the series because a lot of things that schaffrillas didn't get or found funny are hilarious to people who knows his insane obsession with weird concepts like worms, extremely specific but nonsensical titles, weird fake games like mouse quest, an extreme obsession with anti-jokes that are only funny because of the way it's delivered and bizarre references to his old work like the boss breastfeeding his adult son and him getting a magical red jewel.

[@oscarotoole]

[@Nephetssings]

His normal voice already sounds like him. Also it doesn't

[@Olivia-dg4fb]

Ive gotta confess that i kinda like the boss breastfeeding joke... I think its mainly Jason's reaction when the boss asks if he wants him to bite him. The weak "yeah" is so funny to me. The thing about this show is even the weakest episodes have great bits. I laughed my ass off when Pim was imaging his kids in that scary house. In the president episode where he uses the emergency broadcast system to announce thay hes gonna be the money president and then immediately ruins the economy is hysterical. Allen is by far the best character, his line delivery is hysterical and so memorable. I hope the next season will give us more of him, the paper clip episode has got to be my favorite one.

[@koshavinka2995]

I love how when Schaffrilas tries to imitate Pim and his Australian accent, he instead does this completely wrong, received pronunciation British accent, it's hysterical.

[@cannonbrock7235]

Being an Oneyplays fan really gives you a whole other layer of understanding to many of the jokes and one liners, a lot of them are call backs to events and play through episodes from like a decade ago. It’s cool to see perspectives and opinions from people likely not familiar with oneyplays or Zach as a deeper person and his comedic personality.

[@spadinnerxylaphone2622]

26:35 - Alan is normally working in the office or getting supplies, so my guess is that his official job is office manager and support staff for Pim and Charlie. Sort of the "mission control" guy. Helping people directly isn't his job, but he sometimes fills in to his chagrin.

There's this one interview with Zach Hadel where he says how the show is not trying to do anthing. Except for the what the name of the show is. It's a show that wants to make you smile and nothing else and if it does that what else does it really need in an episode. If you smile, then the episode has fulfilled it's purpose

[@bandannadoo]

In other words, the show was the real Smiling Friend all along

[@JimmyDPooper]

The Mr. Boss breastfeeding scene in the pilot is legit the first thing that comes to mind when someone mentions Smiling Friends. If my brain organized media like a streaming service, that would be the show's thumbnail. I wouldn't classify it as the funniest bit, but I would unironically call the most iconic moment of the show up to this point. To me, that was where I knew the show was going to be something special.

[@MrMelonsz]

WELL SAID!!!! It’s like he forgot the impact that scene has the first time people see it lol. So good.
