Can you provide any insight into other jokes that didn't make the cut for whatever reason? I assume most of the cuts are for time purposes, but I'm sure occasionally someone pitches a joke and the room is just *crickets*

Crickets happens all the time and it's completely standard. Just part of the process. If a joke doesn't get a laugh it's probably not going to be recorded by Mike. As for the stuff that he does record, it's a lot more material than is needed for the episode. So, they go in knowing they will just be picking their favorite handful of stuff from what was recored. They, being Mike and the two other showrunners Altschuler and Krinsky.

Wish I could remember specific stuff that didn't make air but there's just too many jokes to recall. If when I'm watching I think of something I'll post it. But I probably wouldn't have remembered that "psychic large" joke if Spaceman hadn't reminded me of it.

when Beavis said "my name is Chamid" I lost it

2 new episodes tonight!

Awesome

"Is this the real housewives of Detroit?"

Loved Holy Cornholio, but hated the Drones episode.

"It's like that one girl's listening to a different song" hahaha

fsoyars, how much "herbal enhancement" is involved in the joke pitching? I'm kind of picturing a very large hot-boxed room with a whiteboard in it.

in before:

there were two new eps on yesterday? I left the TV after the cornholio episode becuase i assumed the 10:30 ep was a repeat. Actually I remember seeing the repeat at 10:30 when they were watching teen mom or whatever and that kid had a lip ring and played video games all day. also I remember seeing tom anderson get in a fight with his neighbor.

WHAT GIVES, OOTV?

new episodes were at 10pm and 11pm. The Drone episode was terrible so you didn't miss anything.

None. Sorry to disappoint.

False.
LOL. I always find it funny that people think "enjoying things while stoned" can equate to "creating things while stoned".

best line of the year, from any show.

Yes, this was pretty insane. I'm belly laughing more at this show than any other on television right now. Butthead's delivery is awesome. The whole Teen Mom bit was top notch: "I know the baby's bumming you out, don't worry, I'll get rid of her."

These episodes (this season) are funnier to me than the og ones. But I wonder how the 18-20's are liking them?

I'm 39, so I'm guessing the comedy isn't aimed at younger teens anymore. Maybe the audience isn't as stupid as I was in my late teens/early 20's. :-\

( I still think about the one year old "carrying his own weight" joke )

Drone was my fav of them all. Good stuff.

Really? I thought Drone was a funny idea but it was so repetitive. The back and forth between Van Driessen and the military guy was funny though. Watching the drones buzz sheep over and over, not so much.

Fwiw, I've never seen or read any of these episodes other than the two my partner and I wrote. Watching them completely cold.

I think my favorites so far are the hand job one and the vampire one.

fsoyars is howard kramer awesome

Great guy. One of those people who's funny when he's trying to be and funny when he's not trying to be.

Yeah, I liked how unapologetic Judge was about the military's goals in Drones.

The "Teen Cribs" or whatever during "Supersize Me" was gold. The way the boys were able to mimic the dad and his speech cracked me up. That, and the line about finding the kids at the park.

Granted I was high as hell but the whole supersize me episode + teen cribs had me nearly crying laughing

Yeah I thought the Supersize Me ep was awesome. The end where the manager was being overwhelmed by the customers while Beavis and Butthead were screwing off in the bathroom was great stuff.

Anybody else think they overdo the music video / reality tv commentaries? They're usually pretty solid but I much prefer when they focus on the episodes themselves.

I've never seen Jersey Shore or Teen Mom which seems to take most of the video segments, heh.

I think they underuse the video commentary. The old episodes had more time dedicated to the video segments than the animated ones. We didn't even get a video during "Bathroom Break".

Personally, I get more enjoyment out of the episodes than the random video segments. To each his own I suppose.
