Humor has been dumbed down to fit the plunging IQ

My favourite sketch of all time, so many clever things in it, which lots of people have commented on before including -- none of the guests talk -- one of the guests is a dog (for the pet care show) -- his hair gets thinner each episode -- he starts smoking in the last episode -- it is pretty much one take for the sketch, which is amazing -- his tie and shirt are all over the place after the first episode :-) -- he does well to not laugh, but you can see he is working hard to keep it together Also very clever is the actual calls - the first call just gets the show wrong - the second call is asking why the call he heard before is getting the show wrong, so clever

I love this video; I can't stop watching it. I just play it over and over but there is a slight mistake... the last TV monitor shouldn't have been screening the ending of the first episode (unless the show changed taping/air times on its 2nd week). When Ken (from the second episode) pulls the TV monitor to show what is airing at that time it would have been airing the middle of the first episode, not the ending. I still love this sketch though. Thumbs up if you understand what I just said.

Anyone who says that it would be correct for callers to be calling in about the "cooking show" obviously don't completely understand this skit. The elderly show won't air for another week; it is only being taped at the present time in this skit, which means that the cooking show won't even air for another two weeks, which means that callers should be calling in about the cooking show in one week when it is being taped, which will be the same time that the elderly show is airing. Get it?
