1. KRP had many funnier bits
Including one nobody remembers. But it was slapstick at its finest.

2. I'm sure
I'm just surprised every year at how many times it's posted. That, and I'm a comedy curmudgeon.



Boomshanka.

3. I'm a comedy snob


And quite the KRP aficionado. :)



Yeah, Gordon Jump had outstanding comedic timing and he delivered that line perfectly. But, cripes, you'd think that was the only episode they ever did. :shrug:

Carlson fussing with the blinds on a window in his office
If you've ever had Venetian blinds, you know how they can be. One side goes up, then the other, while the first side goes down, etc.

Carlson was dealing with this and didn't notice Andy had come into his office; Andy just stood and watched. Finally, the blinds came crashing down, and Carlson looked around, saw Andy and said, "Well, whadda you want, dammit??"



Telling it does it no justice at all — it must be seen. But I can't remember for the life of me what episode it was in, and I've googled and googled to no avail. :(

7. All I remember from 'The Young Ones'
is hacking through the wall to get to the cupboard to get to the lentils and "Oh, noooo. It's the holocaust."
