![]() The sight gag of Robinson’s Pat trying to stealthily eat a hotdog is wonderful, and the fact that things so quickly escalate to hotdog surgery and puke is just sublime. You could very easily call this the Hotdog sketch but that would confuse it with last year’s hotdog sketch) sets the perfect opening mood. Just like last year’s opening sketch, “But It’s Lunch” (this is probably a good time to mention, that I’m naming all of these things myself. Is tragically self-aware that her money will run out soon. Is now helplessly addicted to wine, and E. Got sewn into the pants of the Thanksgiving Day parade Charlie Brown float, B. In the span of roughly 30 seconds, Harrison unveils the saga of a woman who A. This one, the first of the two, is the inferior but still quite great. This time around, we get two heaping doses of Patti. Speaking of top tier comedic talent, thank God Patti Harrison stopped by another season of I Think You Should Leave. The sketch it’s built around isn’t too remarkable but man, does Robinson knock that one out of the park. “I almost killed myself, Jullliieeeeee” is one of the best line-reads of the season. It’s Bob McDuff Wilson’s turn this time around and his child-like obsession with his student’s burger kills right up until the shockingly dark kicker. After 81-year-old comedian Ruben Rabasa stole the show in season 1, season 2 ups the ante with many more sketches letting old folks shine. No other sketch show revels in the talents of older comedians quite like this one. I Think You Should Leave deserves a big spread in AARP magazine. Still, I unironically want to see an action film with a lead character whose main quip is “Eat fucking bullets, you fuckers. This trailer for action thriller Detective Crashmore is funny enough on its own but doesn’t reach another comedic level until the AOL Blast interview two sketches later. This sketch also passes up an easy Cincinnati Chili joke in favor of creating the truly vile “cherry chuck salad.” 25. Perhaps the only thing more absurd than a Little Buff Boys competition is someone being proud of running “one of” the biggest LBB competitions in the Greater Cincinnati area. This followup to Little Buff Boys is the worst of the bunch but still quite funny. Season 2 features many more callbacks to previous sketches than the first season did. Luka is probably the best name for any of Robinson’s random characters yet though. ![]() The concept of Tim’s “Luka” hiring a guy who looks just like his coworker Dave to take monster shits every time he gets up is certainly fun but missing an important layer of added absurdity. The sketch that serves as the cold open of season 2’s final episode doesn’t get things off to the best start. The best moment is Early’s immediate resolve that he’s not paying the bill, but the sketch doesn’t go too far after that. Unfortunately Early is not served well by the material here, which doesn’t rise to the same ludicrous heights as season 2’s other sketches. ![]() Through two seasons, the show’s sketches have been a who’s who of up-and-coming comedic talent, like the wonderful John Early who is featured in this sketch. ![]() Jones' original tweet involved Mike Pence saying "I need to be spanked and spanked hard," meaning that the reply was a direct reference to the sketch.If nothing else, Tim Robinson and I Think You Should Leave co-creator Zach Kanin are incredible comedy scouts. The earliest known example of this quote being used as a reaction image was on October 17th, 2019, when Twitter user used it to reply to a tweet from director Duncan Jones (shown below, click to enlarge). The full quote from the man in the hot dog costume, played by creator, writer and star Tim Robinson, is, "We're all trying to find the guy who did this and give him a spanking!" In the sketch, a hot dog-shaped car crashes into a store and a man dressed in a hot dog costume attempts to pretend he is one of the customers wondering who was driving the car. The "Hot Dog Car" sketch was featured in episode five of the first season, and the catchphrase appears around the 1:26 mark in the clip (seen below). The original image used in the meme comes from the TV show I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson, which premiered on April 23rd, 2019, on Netflix. ![]()
