The Last Supper

Last week when we were out with a bunch of friends for Gia's birthday, a few of us guys starting reminiscing about The State, a great sketch comedy show that ran on MTV in the mid-90's.

Then today, I got a email from a dude who smells like a wet dog letting me now that the entire series is now available on DVD for the 1st time.

Maybe I'll buy it one of these days.  Or I could just get my fix with the clips that are available on Youtube.  Like this one:

I love The State - just ordered it on DVD on Monday, actually.

Jimmy - I dig how Heyzoos threw Louie under the bus at the end of the vid.

Michelle - U welcome!

Avitable - nice! There are probably a ton of skits that are wonderful that I have already forgotten about.

i heard about it going to dvd on sunday, and was going to tell you about it.

you just saved me a phone call.

Verdant Earl said...

Candy - Give props to the kids in the show. I did nothing. :)

Slyde - You don't call. You don't write. It's like I don't even know who you are anymore!

Everything the folks from the State are involved in is comedy gold. Reno 911, Viva Variety, Wet Hot American Summer, Stella...

Oh, and in a timely coincidence, "Michael & Michael Have Issues" starts tonight on Comedy Central.

Heff said...

I quit watching MTV with the outro of music videos.

Faiqa said...

Yeah- I do recall laughing at this show. "I love everybody, that's my thing, man..." Hee hee.

Verdant Earl said...

DG - Haven't heard of that new show. Gonna check it out. Thanks!

Heff - They should just take the "M" out of the channel. But remember Headbanger's Ball? That shit was fun!

Faiqa - weren't you about 3 when the show first ran? Young 'un!

I wanna dip my balls in your blog....and by balls I mean man-hangers, and by blog I mean your mouth. Everybody's thinking it, I just had the "balls" to say it...er...type it rather.

Verdant Earl said...

Sybil - I never got the humor in The Young Ones.

WLC - oh you do have a way with words, you heart-breaker you!

That Hank said...

"I never got the humor in The Young Ones."

I understand the individual words, but the way you have arranged them makes no sense.

Verdant Earl said...

DG - I know. I think there might have been something wrong with me.

I loved this skit. Now that The State in on DVD and there's been a few people that have recommended it to me, I'm going to have to watch more of it than just a skit or two.
