The Father of Modern Comedy

Obviously, comedy is all derivative from some point in the past, but I believe the recent surge in Post-Ironic Meta-Humor is due to the influence of Tim Heidecker. Don't believe me? Well, that sucks, because I just asked my mom and she said I'm right, sorry!

[@igk1099]

I also believe that a really big component of Heideckers comedy is his editing (Dougs) and mise-en-scene and cinematography. His productions consistently nail the feeling of each skit he tries to convey, like a rad tv show from late 90s mtv, or a Carl Sagan like documentary, or myriad of infomertials, and the list goes on. The fact that his productions nail those various formats so good elevates his jokes exponentially, in my opinion.

[@traashghost]

I think Tim Heidecker can be very funny, but the overwhelming majority of people influenced by the Tim & Eric style are embarrassingly unfunny. The major difference being that Tim's humor most often has many layers and intentions behind it, and the imitators generally just do surface-level "random/awkward" nonsense because they can't actually think of anything funny to do, say or write.

[@MisterSweetProductions]

Yeah I bet there’s a lot of truth to that

It's weird watching this stuff get analyzed in-depth. I've always used Tim & Eric's comedy as a measuring stick for new people that come into my life. You either love it, hate it, or simply don't understand it. I can still be friends with people that don't like it, but I usually don't have anything in common with people who don't understand it, and it's pretty rare if I end up good friends with that person.

I think my best friendships are with people that I’ve slowly gotten into Tim and Eric’s stuff. I think most people have capacity to “get it,” but it just takes a few reps for it to click. The litmus test should be “are they open minded enough for you to show them more.” Agreed on people who flat out reject it, usually not much in common with those people…

[@Althebassist]

This is so unironically true it's not even funny.

[@robertyounger5849]

I suspect that the people who “don’t understand it” actually come to the table acting superior. You can say “this is surface layer dumb jokes but there’s a lot of satire going on. Give it like ten seconds before you draw judgement”. Then they’ll give you two seconds and start talking about how unphased they are by whatever goofy surface-level shit they saw in those two seconds

Tim is also a phenomenal comedic actor. This is often overlooked. Another important factor is Doug’s editing skills. Tim (Tim & Eric) is just a perfect storm of talent.

[@poopsintub]

His Coke and Pepsi routine is the best

[@joethesampleguy7888]

In regards to Tim's ventures into post-irony, it's also worth mentioning a lesser-known film he starred in and helped produce, directed by Rick Alverson called "The Comedy". It's a fantastic, yet painful, cautionary tale about the dangers of "overindulging" in a post-ironic lifestyle. In his work, Heidecker uses his post-ironic humour carefully and professionally. He knows what he's doing. Post-irony really is a "don't try this at home" approach to comedy, and while it may seem like goofy fun to deliberately blur the line between funny and not funny, if you go too deep you may lose that line and end up not valuing anything. The film is absolutely brilliant and does a much better job at explaining this idea than I have here. Also, despite the title, it is very much NOT a comedic film.

[@cake1661]

I think it's also important to mention that for years Tim and Eric seemingly had no footage of them behind the scenes where they weren't in character. Every interview was either clearly an insane bit from them or just when it starts getting 'serious' they would say something stupid to show that they're still just fucking with everyone. For years even huge fans of their work didn't have a good idea of what these guys were actually like in real life which sort of helped hold the glue of all their works together and make even the most mundane, seemingly 'real' videos of them seem hilarious. Tim only started presenting as the real Tim Heidecker around 5 years ago and Eric has only recently appeared as the real Eric Wareheim a few times on Tim's podcast.

[@Garbageman28]

[@bigsnacks2350]

The analysis of why Tim and Eric is funny is not very good in this video. He seems to think that self deprivation and saying dumb things is what makes Tim and Eric different. Truth is 90% of all of tim and Eric is just parody. They're not saying "haha what if we made a sketch about dumb scientists who don't understand anything and keep talking out of their butts" in reality they are saying "let's satirize the intellectual community and they're "ism's" by doing a video that is constructed similarly, but the content is nonsense" they do this with "the universe" satirizing scientism and that religion, they satirize doctor patient relationship, award shows, TV ads, and tons of other things. What's very funny now is that after all those years of counter cultural content they made, they themselves as individuals have become narrative oriented and distorted by politics, of course they hate trump. It's just sad to see something like that get ruined. MDE was the next great hope, season one was seriously prophetic, but also insanely funny.

Much of standup is just laughing in an audience at something, doesn't matter what it is or if it is actually funny, it's just laughing as part of a group to feel you belong, many of these shows even have plants who laugh and clap on que to prompt audience to respond.

[@zealsprince]

Great video. I’m glad Tim and Eric’s show gets the recognition it deserves with how it influenced and even shaped newer and more experimental types of comedy by not just including one off jokes of this type but by making it the standard for the entire show. Eric’s role shouldn’t go understated though; if it wasn’t for him, many of my favorite skits would not be nearly as good. For me the next natural transition from this type of humor was easily the Eric Andre show which in itself takes the concept even further and to new absurdist and nihilistic levels I hadn’t seen before. I mean hell; where Tim’s show deconstructs sketch comedy and more, Eric Andre continues that but brings in subversions of the late night show format which I absolutely love. Speaking of deconstructing, it’s no coincidence the set gets completely obliterated each season for instance. Bird up.

Oh absolutely! Eric Andre is amazing and a terrible personal to poorly imitate! It gets very awkward… speaking from experience here

[@aadi.p4159]

@@MisterSweetProductions sooo.. Eric andre vid next

[@MisterSweetProductions]

@@aadi.p4159 oooo that’s actually very possible! I’ll have to see but for sure at some point!

The Eric Andre bridge is DJ Douggpound editing too

[@DavidAStubbs]

Big Tim Hideker Fan.... your right on point here...but Tim would never describe his work this way.

[@MisterSweetProductions]

Yeah but I would

That bread falling was hilarious.

[@SJonathanGarcia]

Yes indeed, you're correct on you explanation which it never crossed my mind that I would need someone explaining it, but as far as I'm concerned you've done such a good job, that I truly enjoy it very much. And for me there are no proper words that can accurately express the level of satisfaction, and how muchof laughter this guys bring me,i lmfao with the universe episode, it's one of my must favorite ones without a doubt. Really enjoy your video.

[@lanefrey1096]

Just as the video was reaching its conclusion, my computer decided to restart, but I thought it was still part of the video so I laughed at it. My roommate then looked at me and asked me what was so funny, and then I realized that my computer was actually restarting and felt dumb.

Another similar person (but with far less notoriety) that this reminds me of is Nathan Barnatt. He's a man who has been in equally as many memes but is way less known. (Do a video on Nathan)

[@Nintendrew]

Fantastic analysis! I'm definitely going to have to share your synopsis of On Cinema in particular next time I'm trying to explain what it is to someone. 😂

[@MisterSweetProductions]

Thank you so much! I mostly made this video to send to my friends instead of incoherently explaining it myself!

[@raphtrap4067]

Man, this guy was ahead of his time

[@jianwhite7179]

I once stole a copy of season one of Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job from my college library and it delayed my graduation for 3 years

[@colebridges5238]

On Cinema at the Cinema is the greatest thing man has created

[@gopnikpokemaster5920]

Adult Swim/cartoon network is my favorite TV channel of all time no competition. Sneaking on adult swim when you were a kid while your parents were asleep was common for me. Tim and Eric are doing a movie with Andrew Callaghan of channel 5 and all gas no breaks.

[@MisterSweetProductions]

I had no idea about that movie! Andrew Callaghan is hilarious! I was so bummed to hear he basically got kicked out of his own show!

[@SkodaUFOInternational]

yo mister sweet i have another comedian you haven't heard of his name is andy kaufman. he played jim carrey in his movie man of the moon.

[@MisterSweetProductions]

I know who Andy Kaufman is 😂 this is also like the 10th comment about him

[@SkodaUFOInternational]

@@MisterSweetProductions lol top notch post irony

[@piedpiper1172]

Elder Millennial did make me laugh. I also then went to her show and loved it. I liked this video too.

[@aaaababab]

another banger video, great job bro

[@Drumtariano]

man, this was a good vid. Really good summarization of different "atypical" comedy forms in the modern day. Putting Tim (and Eric) clips in this context helped put words to why I find him so damn funny

[@NVIKELO]

I I feel cconfident in saying that this video on that comedy guy who made those videos all those years ago is 100 undoubtably an banger vibe

[@MisterSweetProductions]

Hey man, YOUR are a banger vibe!

[@kingchuckfinley]

Every time I see that put the stars in a bag bit I laugh out loud. No matter how many times, it’s always funny.

Was watching an Elder Millenial play Elden Ring, while she talked about being an Elder Millenial... and I called her "the elden millenial" and I think it was the best joke I've made in my entire 28 years of life.

[@FireypepperCP]

Man, I've been thinking this forever. Great vid!
