Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping female friendship movies into the ol’ VCR. 

Now listen, I do like a good rom-com from time to time. 

However, something I love even more is a female friendship movie. 

What do I mean, exactly?

I love movies where there might be a love interest or love triangle, but, at its core, the story is about the power of female friendship. 

I know a couple of these might be questionable, but hear me out. 

In Do Revenge, our girlies ride off into the sunset together after taking down a misogynist POS. Yes, Eleanor (Maya Hawke) does spend the majority of the film trying to take down Drea (Camila Mendes). BUT, their friendship overrules everything in the end. 

Also, I know that Banana Split is questionable because April (Hannah Marks) hooks up with her ex/Clara’s (Liana Liberato) current boyfriend. BUT, again, the real message is the power of their friendship, and their friendship is the only relationship we’re made to care about throughout. 

Alrighty, that should do us for criteria and disclaimers today. 

Without further ado, grab your friendship bracelets and besties, and check out these movies: 

• 9 to 5 
• Girls Trip 
• Bridesmaids
• Do Revenge
• Banana Split
• Steel Magnolias 
• The Sweetest Thing
• The First Wives Club
• Charlie’s Angels (2000) 
• For a Good Time, Call… 
• Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar
• Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping classic YouTube videos from the mid-aughts into the ol’ VCR. 

I had a lot of fun putting together the piece about the commercials I grew up watching last week. We all know I’m a YouTube girlie, so I wanted to serve you up more nostalgia. 

If you were in high school around the same time I was (2006-2010), you grew up with a lot of iconic YouTube videos. 

Don’t get me wrong. I still love YouTube, but it was the Wild West back then. 

You didn’t have to worry about the algorithm, so creators could truly do whatever they wanted (within reason, obviously). 

These videos also established such a specific sense of humor that I’m sure will explain why I am the way I am. I’m also 100% guilty of lining my Myspace profile with an insane amount of GIFs from these videos. 

As with all things from this time period, there are some jokes that don’t hold up. 

And, well, Salad Fingers is Salad Fingers. 

Finally, some of these videos are the first episode in a series, but I’m only including the original videos. 

Without further ado, here are 10 of my favorite YouTube videos from the aughts: 

Shoes

Llamas with Hats 

CW/TW: animated dead body, talk about murder and cannibalism (but from talking llamas in hats) 

Video source: FilmCow

The Best Car EVER 

Video source: Smosh

Salad Fingers 

Video source: David Firth

Charlie the Unicorn  

Video source: FilmCow

Muffins

Note: There’s a joke/reference to the Israel/Palestine conflict, but this video was created 17 years ago.

Video source: LiamKyleSullivan

George Washington 

I’m not sure if the original upload to this video still exists, but I’ll update this link if I can find it.

The End of the World 

It’s honestly frightening how accurate this is.

Fun fact: I performed the first two Evolution of Dances, in full, with a friend of mine, for two different talent shows in college.

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping the work of Molly Shannon into the ol’ VCR.

I think Molly Shannon is truly one of the funniest people on this planet. 

Whenever I see her in the cast of something, I immediately get giddy. Not to mention, she’s one of the best SNL alums of all time. 

One thing I love about Molly Shannon is her character work. Even though she’s brought countless characters to life, it doesn’t feel like all of her characters are separate; it feels like they’re just different pieces of herself. 

Her range is also incredible. You’re telling me that the same person that played Mary Katherine Gallagher also played Mrs. Fisher in a PIVOTAL scene of Promising Young Woman? Like, c’mon. 

As always, there’s not much more I can say that hasn’t been said. 

Molly, if you ever read this, thank you. 🖤

Without further ado, here’s some of my favorite Molly Shannon content: 

• Superstar 
• Serendipity 
• Marie Antoinette 
• Never Been Kissed 
• I Love That For You
• Promising Young Woman 
• Wet Hot American Summer 

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping another edition of Lights, Camera, Albums into the ol’ VCR. 

In today’s edition of Lights, Camera, Albums, we’re going to cover Billie Eilish’s debut album, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO? Much like Plastic Hearts, this album is very horror-forward IMO. I think the music video for “bury a friend” only proves my point. 

However, there are also some darker themes throughout. For that reason, I’m not going to do pictures in this one. I also want to give a little disclaimer that I’m not making light of any of the subject matter in these songs or movies. Finally, I’m not doing a match for “!!!!!!!” because it’s only 13 seconds long. 

If you’re new here, and you’ve made it this far, welcome! Lights, Camera, Albums is a series where I go through an album, song by song, and pair each track with a movie. Sometimes, the pairings are obvious. Other times, you can just chalk it up to being a creative. Either way, we have a lot of fun here. 

Without further ado, let’s jump into Lights, Camera, Albums: Billie Eilish’s WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?

“bad guy” as Fear 

When I was relistening to this album, Margo (Alyssa Milano) immediately came to mind for this song. Margo doesn’t have the same upbringing as Nicole (Reese Witherspoon), so she doesn’t have the same structure and familial support. Margo also doesn’t have to adhere to the same rules as Nicole and has a reputation for being a bad girl. I can see Margo singing this to Nicole when she’s trying to warn her about David (Mark Wahlburg). 

“xanny” as Bodies Bodies Bodies 

I 100% can see Bee (Maria Bakalova) performing this song. She’s swept up into this world of privilege and partying, and she’s from an entirely different world. I think these lyrics really drive it home, 

“They’re nothing but unstable,

Bring ashtrays to the table, 

And that’s about the only thing they share” 

“you should see me in a crown” as Immaculate 

I think this song is PERFECT for Cecilia (Sydney Sweeney). She goes from this timid sister to a badass and vengeful final girl in a matter of 89 minutes. I see the first verse of the song representing Cecilia as she bides her time to escape, while the rest of the song represents Cecilia’s harrowing escape. 

“all the good girls goes to hell” as Late Night with the Devil 

I know Jack Delroy (David Dastmalchian) identifies as male, but I think the sentiment remains the same. Jack sacrificed his wife for his career, and now, it’s time to pay the price. This song also works in regards to June (Laura Gordon) because she’s sincerely trying to do the right thing, but gets caught up in Jack’s quest for success. 

“wish you were gay” as Jennifer’s Body 

Okay, so, I want to go ahead and say I know this song is problematic. Moving on. 

I paired this one with Jennifer’s Body because Needy (Amanda Seyfried) and Jennifer’s (Megan Fox) relationship is complicated. Jennifer hasn’t treated Needy fairly for most of their friendship. I think this song works on two levels because a) Needy doesn’t wish she would be second string to Jennifer and b) Needy and Jennifer’s feelings do have a romantic aspect. 

“when the party’s over” as Fear Street: Part One – 1994 

This was one of the first matches I made. I think this song is such a good representation of Deena’s (Kiana Madeira) mentality at the beginning of the Fear Street trilogy. She’s reeling from how things ended with Sam (Olivia Scott Welch). The “party,” in their case, is when Sam leaves town and her mom finds out about their relationship.

“8” as Midsommar 

Okay, I’ll admit that this one might be one where you need to tilt your head to the side and squint. But, hear me out. Christian (Jack Reynor) is an absolute gaslighting POS to Dani (Florence Pugh). All she does is try to cope with her trauma and put on a brave front for him, just for him to cheat on her, steal his friend’s thesis, etc…I see this song as coming from Dani’s POV, especially because of these lyrics: 

“I know you’re not sorry

Why should you be?

‘Cause who am I to be in love

When your love never is for me?” 

“my strange addiction” as From Dusk Till Dawn 

I originally had Swallow as the movie for this song, but I decided that was way too on the nose. However, if you take a step back, you can apply this song to vampirism/turning into a vampire. And, what better way to kill two addictions with one stone than to pair this song with From Dusk Till Dawn where you get both vampires and Quentin Tarantino’s foot fetish. 

“bury a friend” as Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors 

I think these two are a match made in Heaven…or Hell. In NOES 3, Kristen (Patricia Arquette) and Nancy (Heather Langenkamp) have to band together to defeat Freddy as he picks off kids one-by-one. I think this song would be a really cool ensemble piece with Nancy, all of the kids, and Freddy. 

“​ilomilo” as Come True 

If you know me at all, you know I’ll find a chance to talk about Come True whenever I can. Fortunately, there’s actually a good reason to bring it up in this case. Sarah (Julia Sarah Stone) is trapped in this world of her own design, so I see this song coming in at the end when she realizes that she’s all alone. 

“listen before i go” as Tamara 

This song has a really dark connotation (CW/TW for SI), and I’m not trying to make light of it. 

This song immediately made me think of Tamara. Tamara (Jenna Dewan) ends up on a rooftop, and I feel like this song really captures how Tamara was feeling before the prank and while she was exacting her revenge. 

“i love you” as Planet Terror

I rewatched Planet Terror recently, so it came to mind fairly quickly. I think “i love you” is an incredible representation of Cherry (Rose McGowan) and Wray’s (Freddy Rodríguez) relationship. They reunite, only to have their love struck down in its prime. 

“goodbye” as Raw 

I know this song is a reprise of sorts, but for some reason, it just made me think of Raw. Justine’s (Garance Marillier) thoughts are racing throughout the movie as she tries to navigate her new…cravings. I see this song playing either at the end of Raw when Justine finds out her family’s secret, or during the party scene. 

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping commercials from the 90s and 00s into the ol’ VCR. 

As someone who a) works in marketing and b) is a pop culture aficionado with a penchant for nostalgia, I’ve been thinking a lot about commercials from my formative years. 

The 90s/early 00s LOVED a jingle. They also loved creating weird ass creatures and bringing inanimate objects to life. Toy Story came out during this time period, to drive my point home. 

I watch a lot of content (spoiler), and they just don’t make commercials like they used to. 

She said, shaking her fist towards the sky with one hand and reaching into her pocket for a Werther’s Original with the other. 

That’s why I’ve carefully selected ten of my favorite commercials from the past for all of us to revisit and remember our own mortality. 

Pepsi Custom CD Summer Promotion Commercial 

I still know every single word to this promo, and I don’t want to talk about it.

The Sears Air Conditioner Commercial 

Please let me know if you’re chronically online like me and know about the parody video of this. 

Video source: EdsteveTheGreat

The Quiznos Critter Commercial 

WTF were these things?

Video source: Dangerdan

The Pizza Hut Pizza Head Commercials 

I may need a Pizza Head tattoo at some point tbh. 

Video source: Commercial Ads

The Mouse Trap Game Commercial 

This song will be my Rosebud. 

Video source: The Dead Media Group

Creepy Crawlers Maker Commercial 

I wanted one of these so bad, but I was always too scared to ask for one. 

Video source: Archive Footage 

Push Pop Commercial 

I wonder how many stunt people were needed to dodge those giant, animated suckers. 

Video source: Analog Memories 

Baby Bottle Pop Commercial 

Eating one of these in my 30s might kill me. 

Video source: Rockin’ Millenia 

Reese’s Puffs Commercial 

If you don’t sing this jingle randomly to yourself, you clearly aren’t me. 

Video source: kevinandcarldotcom

Blow Pens Commercial 

KP finally bought me a set of these, and I kid you not, they were dried up within three days.

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping prematurely canceled shows into the ol’ VCR. 

Friends, we live in a world where streamers and studios seem to cancel shows and movie releases at the drop of a hat. 

Be it for tax breaks, “low ratings,” or because Mercury was in retrograde, some shows meet an unceremonious end. 

Now, I’m going to avoid some classics here like Freaks and Geeks and My So-Called Life. 

We all know they might’ve been canceled too soon, but they’re still iconic. 

I’m going to throw out more recent examples that already have a cult following or I think will see a resurgence at some point. 

Also, let’s address the elephant in the room; Netflix is the biggest offender on this list. They even renewed GLOW for another season, only to rescind the renewal due to the pandemic. 

However, they’re not alone in their transgressions. 

As streaming evolves, cancellations become more and more common. 

I know that I, personally, hold my breath at the end of every season and relentlessly Google renewal news. That way, it breaks my heart a little less when a show I love is donezo. 

Alrighty, I think that’ll do for disclaimers. 

Without further ado, here are 9 shows I think were canceled way too soon: 

• GLOW 
• Crazyhead
• Shining Vale 
• The Get Down 
• Santa Clarita Diet 
• Everything Sucks! 
• Single Drunk Female
• The Baby-Sitters Club 
• A League of Their Own
• Rise of the Pink Ladies
• Dead End: Paranormal Park

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping fictional streamer categories into the ol’ VCR.

Several years ago, there was an episode of @midnight w/ Chris Hardwick (f that guy) where the comedians du jour had to name “New Netflix Categories.” 

Riki Lindholm pops off, “Keira Knightley Sobs in a Corset,” and I truly lost my mind. 

Video source: Comedy Central

That joke has stuck with me ever since, and, today, I’d like to throw out some new streamer categories of my own…with a twist. 

I’m not just going to give you fake movie categories; I’m going to give you some movies that belong in said category. 

Don’t say I never did anything for you. 

(JK, it’s to justify my own jokes, so it’s 100% me, not you.)

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping my favorite rom-coms into the ol’ VCR.

Friends, I know that we haven’t always had the most positive attitude towards rom-coms. 

I’ve even royally shat on some like The Wedding Planner, Irish Wish, etc… 

I do watch rom-coms, so I don’t want people to get it twisted. 

Just because we’ve had some real stinkers doesn’t mean I hate and condemn the entire genre. 

That’s why, for the sake of fairness, I want to throw out some of my favorite rom-coms. 

Also, in grand B Movies tradition, we have a couple disclaimers to throw out. 

First and foremost, some of these movies are older. As we know, some jokes/plotlines don’t always age well, so watch with caution. 

Additionally, I know Never Been Kissed is on this list, and it’s problematic as hell. 

I fully recognize that, and there have been times I haven’t felt comfortable including it on lists. But, this is just a silly little rom-com list, so I feel okay throwing it into the mix. 

Alrighty, that should do us for disclaimers. 

Without further ado, here are 13 rom-coms to give you all the warm and fuzzies: 

• Crush 
• Clueless
• 27 Dresses 
• The Holiday 
• The Proposal 
• Practical Magic
• You’ve Got Mail
• Definitely, Maybe  
• The Family Stone
• Crazy Rich Asians 
• Never Been Kissed
• The Wedding Singer 
• 10 Things I Hate About You

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping movie plots turned into AITA posts into the ol’ VCR.

Friends, an idea will sometimes just pop into my head and fill me with so much happiness, a la the HSM/Dante’s Inferno piece. 

This is another one of those pieces. 

I was watching Fever Pitch the other day (yeah, I hate it for me, too) and thought, “Wow. This sounds like a Reddit post.” 

Then, a lightbulb went off. 

I chose 10 movies and rewrote their plots into AITA-style posts. At the end, I’ll reveal the actual movies, so you can see how you did. 

As your one and only hint, know that, somehow, all of these movies are either rom-coms or horror movies. 

I have no idea how it turned out this way, but it did. 

Alrighty, that should do it for an intro. 

Let’s start judging people we’ve never met from the internet. 

AITA for loving baseball? 

u/falloninlove

Verdict: YTA 

My girlfriend and I have been dating for a while, and things are going great. I’m a big baseball fan, and she has a nondescript job where she can get a big promotion. She’s been complaining that going to every single baseball game in a season is starting to affect her work performance, but I don’t see the problem.

I told her I liked baseball and made her falsely think I was proposing to her in the middle of a park, when I was actually inviting her to the opening season game with me. Also, men are allowed to have hobbies and don’t need to go to therapy to talk through residual issues from their uncle dying. 

I decided that she was more important than baseball after we had a pregnancy scare, and I missed my first game ever. The bad news is, the Red Sox won, and I lashed out at my girlfriend and basically blamed her for all of my problems. But, I feel like I was justified. She’s the reason I had to change, right? So, Reddit, AITA for simply wanting to attend every single game and training for the Red Sox and leaving my girlfriend to deal with the consequences?

AITA for falling for a client? 

u/perfectplanner 

Verdict: ESH

Hi, Reddit! I definitely need some help. I’m a wedding planner, and, recently, a handsome and charming doctor saved me from being roadkill. We went on a date and almost kissed. I was absolutely smitten. 

That’s where things get complicated. This doctor is actually engaged…to one of my clients. And, I didn’t find out until we were at a dance class. His fiance had me fill in for her. We did this awkward (but kinda hot) tango together, and he revealed everything to me. But, he still hasn’t told her about the date or anything. 

I think we should tell her, but he’s adamant on having sexual tension and being jealous of the man trying to woo me instead. So, am I the asshole?

AITA for pretending to be dead and hiding my identity? 

u/notdreadpirateroberts 

Verdict: NTA 

I’m in a bit of a pickle. The loml, we’ll call her Queen Bluebonnet, and I were madly in love as children and teenagers. I decided to leave to prove myself and save up money. Unfortunately, I was then presumed dead after a raid on my ship. 

A few years later, I found out she was getting married to a real douchebag and had been kidnapped. Well, I ended up finding her. I was a little self-conscious to see her after all this time, so I hid my identity for the first bit of our adventure. 

She shoved me down a hill, and I yelled my catchphrase at her. She realized who I was, but now she’s mad at me for letting her think I was dead. Am I in the wrong here?

AITA for chasing a guy I met at a bar across the state?

u/dontwanttomissathing

Verdict: NAH

Okay, I’m super embarrassed. So, I met this guy at a bar, and we really connected. I tend to self-sabotage relationships or run when things get serious. But, this guy is different.  

The problem is that he was only in town for a bachelor party, but I found out where he was headed. So, my best friend and I took a comical road trip for me to track him down and have gone through a LOT of hijinx. 

I got to the church, and it turns out that HE’S the groom, and I may or may not have accidentally made his bride realize they shouldn’t get married. Now, I feel TERRIBLE. Is this my fault?

AITA for not telling my daughter she had a twin? 

u/deviousdaddydennis

Verdict: YTA 

Okay, I know that this is probably a weird title, but hear me out. My ex and I had twin daughters, and when we split, we thought the best decision for everyone was to each take a kid, move back to London and Napa Valley, and raise them as only children. Totally normal, right?

Well, that’s where this situation gets tricky. It turns out that our kids met at summer camp, switched places, and now want to be reunited. They’re also really upset for us keeping this secret from them. I’m at a loss. I truly don’t see what we did wrong here, and my fiancee agrees. 

So, am I the asshole? 

AITA for wanting to sell my dead aunt’s book for money 

u/youcancallmetonight

Verdict: NTA 

Listen. I have a Vegas show I need to finance, so I need cash FAST. I need to show the world I was meant to be in the spotlight, and this is my chance to break out of a career slump. Not to mention a misogynist cowboy who wants to rope me, if you catch my drift. 

I just found out that I had an aunt who died. I’ve inherited her house in Nowhere, USA, and I think I can get some good money for it. She also had some sort of ancient cookbook that my uncle wants yesterday. He’s willing to pay BIG for it, too. 

My aunt seemed like a great lady, and her weird little dog keeps hiding her cookbook from me. I was orphaned, so it’s nice to connect with her. But, I’m also strapped for cash. Spider-tassel pasties don’t pay for themselves. 

AITA for bringing my wife home to meet my family? 

u/lebailbuddy

Verdict: YTA 

Note – This was reposted to Am I The Devil?

I come from a wealthy and privileged family. We went no contact a while back, but my wife is an orphan and wanted to connect with them. I humored her, and we got married at my childhood home. But, my family has a nasty tradition whenever someone joins our clan. This is where I might be in the wrong. 

It was a one in a million shot, but my wife was selected to play hide-and-seek across our property. You see, we kind of made a deal with The Devil to get our fortune. Things were different back then. 

And, if my wife survives the game, my entire family will face dire consequences. I knew there was a chance of this happening, but I brushed it off. I also didn’t tell her about the game to begin with. We had a bit of a whirlwind romance, so I guess it just never really came up. ATIA for not telling my wife she might be selected to play a deadly game of hide-and-seek so that my family can thrive?

AITA for trying to further my career? 

u/thatsallnyc

Verdict: NTA 

I’m an aspiring journalist, but living in New York without any “applicable” experience is proving to be a real challenge. I took an assistant position at a major style magazine, let’s call it Catwalk. My boss is demanding, to say the least, but I feel like this position is a really good stepping stone for my career. 

According to my friends and boyfriend, I’m being selfish. But, when I brought them accessories as a peace offering, my friends took them without question. I’ve also been nothing but supportive of my boyfriend as he furthered his career. 

I will take full responsibility for missing a couple of events and needing to take calls when I’m with my friends or boyfriend. I also missed my boyfriend’s birthday, and I feel awful. Finally, I told another assistant that I would be taking her place at a major fashion event. Let’s call it Designer Days. 

I know that if I endure my time here at Catwalk, I’ll be able to transition into the career I’ve always wanted. That means I can make time for everything and get back to my journalistic roots. Do these things make me an asshole?

AITA for not listening to my wife? 

u/everyrosehasitsthorn

Verdict: YTA 

Throwaway account. My wife and I suffered a terrible loss, and we decided to adopt another infant to try to make up for it. At first, things seemed fine. 

However, as our son, Darren (fake name), began to grow up, strange things started happening around our house. When our nanny leapt from a window saying she was doing this for our son, we didn’t really think anything about it. 

But, things have intensified. My wife fell down several flights of stairs and said Darren did it. But, I just don’t see how! She also explicitly asked me to not let Darren kill her. Women can be so hysterical, though. 

Now, she’s in the hospital, and I’ve stepped outside, leaving her alone with Darren, to write out this Reddit post even though she begged me not to leave. Am I in the wrong for not heeding any of my wife’s warnings and repeatedly leaving her alone with our son?

AITA for wanting to play games?

Verdict: YTA

Hello, Reddit. I would like to make a post. I like to put people in compromising positions to make them understand the value of their life. I have never killed anyone. I’ve only let them succumb to the dangerous and life-threatening situations I’ve placed them in. I’m not a murderer. 

My ex-wife and proteges seem to understand my process. However, the police don’t seem to agree (ACAB, am I right?). 

Again, I’ve never killed anyone. The worst thing I’ve done is create a puppet who rides in on a bicycle as a coping mechanism and set up death traps to teach people to value their lives. That’s all. Am I the asshole? The choice is yours.

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping Fuse into the ol’ VCR.

We all know I was an MTV girlie. 

But, friends, I was also a Fuse fanatic. 

For those who don’t know, Fuse began as MMUSA (MuchMusic USA) all the way back in the 90s. 

Over the years, and several mergers and acquisitions later (insert American Psycho reference here), the Fuse I grew up with came to be around 2003. 

And, boy howdy, was it wild. But, y’know, in the best way. 

The three big shows I watched religiously on Fuse were: 

• The Nighttime Clap
• Pants-Off Dance-Off 
• The Whitest Kids U’Know 

The Nighttime Clap

I feel like out of all three of these shows, this is the one most people aren’t going to remember. I feel like I might lose some of you, so stick with me. 

Like WKUK, The Nighttime Clap was a sketch-comedy show that has basically been forgotten by the entire internet. Seriously. You can barely find anything about it, including the sketches. 

The big ones I remember are “The Philosophical iPod” and “Goth Chick On…” 

Billy Eichner also did some man-on-the-street style sketches, which is WILD. 

You can find some sketches throughout YouTube and Vimeo, but there’s never been any sort of physical release. It also seems like there were only a handful of episodes released/shot. 

I can’t 100% say how this holds up, but I think I remember some gay jokes sprinkled throughout.  

Pants-Off Dance-Off 

This is truly one of the most insane shows I remember watching in my formative years. 

If you don’t know the premise, let me explain: 

People would strip to different music videos, and then the audience would vote on their favorite dancer. 

That’s it. That’s the show. 

I had to Google to find out if these peeps even won money. They apparently had the chance to win $200 and an opportunity to compete in an all-stars episode. 

So yeah…that was a real show I watched all the time, aka for the two seasons it was one/all of the repeats. 

The good news is, I’ve talked to other people who also bore witness to this show, so I know I’m not alone. 

The Whitest Kids U’Know (WKUK) 

Some of, if not most of you, are probably familiar with The Whitest Kids U’Know. 

Several clips from it went viral, including the “Sic Semper Tyrannis” sketch, and growing up in a high school marching band from 2006-2010, it served as the height of comedy for me and a lot of my friends. 

Does WKUK hold up? Erm…

There are some sketches that are still fine to watch. But, I do want to give you a big ol’ warning that a lot of these sketches…don’t. 

It’s hard to watch a lot of these. I’ll be honest. So, I would say to keep that in mind if you’re looking to start a nostalgic rewatch. 

I also want to say RIP to Trevor Moore. Losing him did break my heart because I watched these sketches a lot growing up. 

Additionally, if you saw and loved Barbarian like I did, you may or may not know that Zach Cregger is actually a WKUK cast member. 

Fuse almost feels like a fever dream now. Just when I think I hallucinated a channel I watched over several years of my life, a song on my playlist that I found from Fuse will start playing. 

It’s crazy to look back on how much time has passed since I stayed up too late watching sketch comedy shows and Pants-Off Dance-Off after singing along to music videos all day long. 

This one’s for Baby Baillee. 🖤
