“That frog ripped me off. Little asshole, little fucker.” Awkward shithead Tim Robinson gets invited to local rocker weatherman Paul Rudd’s friend group, blows it by being too weird and desperate and needy, loses his wife Kate Mara in a sewer adventure, ends up delusional in a squad car.

Key & Peele season 1 (2012)
Holds up well. President’s anger translator… adjusting one’s blackness… how white guys fight… cinephiles talking loud at the movies… magical negro battle… making fun of Jaden Smith… food competition show contestant gets stabbed… Lil Wayne gets stabbed… insult battle with mom’s doctor… rapid-fire code-switching… Peele expressing enthusiasm about the movie Candyman a decade before remaking it… “I said biiiiiiiitch.”

I Think You Should Leave season 1 (2019)
Most of the jokes come down to Tim talking too much and digging himself into deeper holes (or: a hotdog man in a car accident). Elderly Will Forte botches his lifelong plan to take revenge on Tim on a flight… Fred Willard is an inappropriate organist at a funeral… Tim Heidecker is a music snob at a party.

Upright Citizens Brigade season 1 (1998)
The hot chicks room, the bucket of truth, the unabomber… protection poo-stick… the title and titular line, writing nonsense lyrics for Disney movies, Dee Snider cameo… ass pennies… teamster puppet show… mixing taped performances with live shows with guerilla theater… Amy playing every female character.
