The "I Said Bitch" skit had me in tears..when dude hugged the tree I lost it LOL. Also this helicopter skit is pretty funny right now.

That last skit of tonight's episode was great. Started off thinking it would be making fun of some 90s singers, but got way better than I thought it would be.

Caught tonight's episode. I think both of these guys are pretty funny but some of the sketches weren't that great, while some were pretty funny (the Malcolm X/King and the 90's R&B sketch) the others were only ok. I think their duo-standup inbetween sessions are pretty good though.
I hope they find their footing and keep going.

the show has a LOT of potential, maybe they just need another good writer or something. Like how Chapelle had Neil.

I like this show. It is pretty funny. I don't watch too many comedies though.

I haven't watched this show, but I'm glad to see some people enjoying it. They were some of the best on Mad TV in the later years.

That episode was great. I guess I'm with it for the long haul. Glad it got renewed for S2.

Personally, I feel the skits are the weakest part of the show :/

Last ep was kinda weird because they started to mass drop the N and yeah, I also find the sketches better than the skits for the most part.
Finally some good black comedy, I'll definitely stick around.
Also Peele > Key.

That Jaden Smith sketch had me in stitches.
Best of the episode. Magic Negro and Reverse Psychology Obama were good too. Still think the stand-up needs work.

Just caught up on this, and it's much funnier than it looks. I've been laughing out loud in all the episodes.
Honestly, the jokes are not as "smart" as, say Chappelle's, but the delivery and performance raises their level to hilarious. The guys are just good actors.

That DJ skit was amazing, the skits before the commercials seem to be pretty solid.

"So who's your favorite member of A Tribe Called Quest?"
That was especially funny to me because I know people who would respond the same way.

That soul food skit had me in stitches.
Just watched the season finale. Obama Teaches Malia sketches, especially the second one, were hilarious. Friendship Song was alright. Sketchy Apartment was only good until the twist ending, where it got great. Party Motivators was goddamn brilliant. Funny Dead Guy was decent. Baby Forest Whitaker could have been better if Peele's impression was better. Squinting didn't do nearly enough. The stand-up was iffy as always; that stuff about movies would be better served in an internet comments section with how unfunny and boring it was, but the story about Keegan's apartment break-ins was great.
At the end of the season, I'm coming away feeling that while the show has some definite weaknesses, they aren't glaring enough to distract from the strengths. Fingers crossed that when fall comes, Key and Peele have tweaked things just a bit.
And one last aside: whoever does their makeup and hair and costumes needs an Emmy. Keegan's facial hair alone in the dead guy sketch cracked me up, and both dudes looked hilarious in the party sketch.
