hi guys to see a new video about the battle of mannasas(the first battle of the civil war) come visit srvztube channel to watch Battle of Manassas reenactment 150th Anniversary. (to see a REAL reenacment
I am a reenactor and found this funny, But the coments from some assholes really piss me off. Assholes, dont talk shit about history, reenactors, or ancestors. Have some respect. Immature bitches.
there should be a full reenactment. where are the slaves? and all you fraggles crying about how you lost relatives... you aren't affected. furthermore, they deserved their deaths. welcome to the union, motherfuckers.
@sebastski Fuck off. Dont be an immature bitch. We do this for our love of who we are and who our ancestors were. The Union army was just liek the british army in revolution. Tyrants jsut like King George. So, you must support tyrants and the british loyalists.
I respect the one poster below who is a reenactor and can also see the humor in this sketch, which is making fun of people's foibles and not mocking soldiers. I'd hate any sketch that mocks people who serve their country. But this is funny.
Whether you find this skit amusing or not has nothing to do with patriotism or appreciating U.S. History. It's about being able to laugh at yourself. Lincoln himself was a master of this actually. If anyone needs to learn a lesson from history and Mr. Lincoln, it's that you do indeed need to take life and war seriously, but you can't forget how to laugh too.
I am a huge fan of Mr. Show and American History. I would not take this so personal. Being from New Orleans and having a father who participates in the Sons of the Confederacy, I do have a bit of southern pride concerning the Civil War. I am glad there are dedicated people who keep history alive. But the sketch is just a joke. There's 4 seasons of Mr. Show poking fun at everything American. It's a great nation to be a part of, and to rib a little as well.

this is an insult to everyone the dead soldiers should be shown respect, not crap like this. Why don't you put all of our gear on and try to do what we do... how about you idiots grow a pair and get the hell out of this country cause this shit shows you are no way loyal to this country
@ordredutemple1119 You're a moron. I'm a vet and think this is hilarious. If you think finding humor in this means you are disloyal to this country, then you're just a complete dope. I'm sure you are one of the people that runs around in their Halloween costumes and thinks that you're "honoring" your country by doing so. Grow up.
@XhockeyfightX hey jackass I lost seven family members in the civil war.... three on my dads side and four on my moms side... so how about tou shove your cock down your throat if you had one... its jackasses like you that encourage this shit... it dishonors people like my ancestors who actually were killed... and no i do not run around in my "halloween costume"... kiss my ass you peice of shit
Runkleforskin is a prime example of what I said, that those who find great humor in this lack the willingness or ability to use much brain power. No wonder our nation was so willing to elect a fraud to the White House and Congress. We have boys like him making decisions. Yeah, runkle forskin, that's a name that adolescents would find cool to use as a alias. Time to go such your thumb kid, and grow out of your little psycho obsession with porn and profanity

@barry1607VA lying POS go play with your dolls and watch porn elsewhere, quit sending me private messages telling me what you want to do with my naked body. I don't think all of the people reading your stupid comments know exactly what kind of sick pervert you are.
Not only is this seemingly making comedy relief out of re-enacting, but also the existence of educational TV & documentaries... but the subtile use of the reference to Ken Burns documentary and the end scene alluding to PBS pledge drives may require a little more use of brain power then those who may find this top quality humor are willing or able to use
This sketch really shows that Mr. Show is the closest American Comedians got to recreating Monty Python. That of course is the highest form of compliment towards a sketch comedy show. This makes "Saturday Night Live" look like "The Amanda Show".
As a "reenactor", I too love this clip and think it's hilarious. Sadly, it is so true. The state of our "hobby" is ridiculous. Mainstream events now resemble a county fair or a circus than a historical event. And the corny, farby, and over-the-top acting during battle scenes is almost nauseating. Not to mention the majority of the participants are largely overweight and incredibly incorrect when it comes to uniforms and equipment. I now stick to mainly living histories and campaigner events.
It's so depressing I thought one of the best jokes was the misspelling of "You're" on the postcard. Depressing for me because I think grammar is funny.
@GraceOfTheWitch What ACW reenactor did u grow up with? Your mother isn't one nor am I. I'm just a train nut who also happens to have a lifelong interest in the Civil War. SciFi geeks are OK and ACW reenactors are kinda weird (especially the old fat ones like me which is why I avoided that scene), but you RenScots are the real nut jobs. Eating hagus all the time -- geez, I'd rather chew on hardtack!! Or at least if I had teeth I would. And y did u post this 3 times? its not that funny.
Having grown up with a Civil War reenactor, being an old Sci Fi geek who still regularly attends cons, and being a Renaissance period reenactor, all I say is... HEY!! I resemble... er... resent that!
Civlilwar1263... My dad is a reenactor, I'm a late Renaissance reenactor... We're all a bunch of nut jobs! Get used to it. I wear my kilt and get people who say "I bet you loved Braveheart!" I want to punch those people...
"These guys always show up at our Renaissance fair, and they pretend that they've been transported from some other time, and then they try to engage us in battle."
I think that humor is a good thing, but it is funnier when it is someone who appreciates his subject and is not jus making fun of his subject. I believe that is what Civilwar1263 is trying to say. It is the spirit in which gest is made.
I was in the Civil War and am not offended, except by the space people who confuse and delight me. Love and kisses, Shotty. PS: Where can I get some Teaching By Billiards tapes?

@FiveInchTaint hi i am a civilwar reenactor and do not appreciate you calling us nut jobs we are honoring the soldiers who fought and died for their country. we also educate the public about the civilwar so please have some respect.
@civilwar1263 If you feel that you relate to the people in this sketch, then I have nothing to apologize for. Also, posting your point multiple times doesn't help your case.
@civilwar1263 sir i do not relate myself to the people in this video this is nothing like a reenactment so learn the facts before you post something and our point is to honor veterans so you should know better yourself.
@civilwar1263: Dude, grow a set. It's all in fun. Don't get your cannon balls all tied up over this...because, "HELLO!" Welcome to the internet, for Lincoln's sake...assbag...
@mrlostnphound SIR YOU R A DISCRACE TO AMERICA IT IS PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT MAKE THIS COUNTRY SUCK!! YOU HAVE NO RESPECT FOR THE ONES WHO HAVE PROTECTED THIS COUNTRY SO YOU CAN SIT HERE ON YOUR COMPUTER AND CALL PEOPLE NUT JOBS. THERE ARE YOUNG PEOPLE DIEING OVER THERE....AND BY THE WAY ITS NOT THE VIDEO THAT MAKES ME SO MAD ITS YOU WHO HAS TO ACT THIS WAY AND MAKE THIS COUNTRY HORRIBLE.
Of the 15 members of my living history organization, 6 are retired military, and 2 are currently active duty. I have meet Marines, Navy Seals, Air Force, Army Rangers, and students at West Point, VMI, and Annapolis who do this "play fighting".... I would make sure I know just who I call a pussy next time.... for all you know civilwar1263 IS in the military
@barry1607VA a seal my ass, fucking liar. you are just a 12 yr old cocksucker who watches tranny porn in his closet. dont try to talk with the big boys.. you will just get smashed.
There there is a response that lacks any form of intelligence. Usually those that can only question some one's sexuality or man hood are themselves acting 12 years old --- or younger in this case, and making up for deficiencies. I've heard better responses out of 8 year olds.
OK, I admit I wasn't a SEAL, but I made you question your impulsive, child like emotional response. So if you feel the need to keep responding when your lack of IQ is called out, go right a head
@barry1607VA and I am sure you have heard better out of 8 year olds, alot of them too. Sick pedo's like yourself hear all kinds of "kid" blabber don't you. FREAK.!
@civilwar1263 Have to agree with you bro, but what can you do people will make fun of people nothing you can really do about it. You should be proud of trying to educate the public and kids especially about the civil war (and lets be honest a lot of them just bimbo their way through life without a clue whats going on outside their car window never mind what happened in the civil war). Maybe if more people payed attention to whats going on around them there would never have been a civil war!
@civilwar1263 I've done Civil War reenacting for 14 years now...and if you have been to more than one reenactment as a reenactor you would know that there are some weird ass people that do this hobby, and some true nut cases that are reenactors. And if you dont think so then heres a hint...you're one of them....
They re-enact to remember those who died to change this country, ourlives, and the world forever. They aren't pretending to be brave, they are remembering,and getting as close to history as they can.
This is produced close enough to Ken Burns' style that it took me a while to catch on! Nice job. We're about to release the feature "Dog Jack" in which we spent many a memorable day with reenactors from all over the country.
I agree with George Carlin when he was talking about how dumb these "re-enactments" are and how they should use real ammunition if they are so concerned about authenticity.
This really does remind me of reenactments. I remember when, during the reenactments of the Revolutionary War, the French General Staff showed up...sort of like the two Lincolns. Then of course, there was the Battle of Grenada Highlands, where a Union Cavalry soldier showed up in line with a group of advancing British Grenadiers - sort of like the space people. Very Well done!
We simulate the glory of the men who could not be here today.
Jay Johnston's inappropriate emotion is the best thing about this skit, except the straight-faced officer who tries to negotiate between "the civil war chums, the medieval folks, and the space people."
I love how close this movie is to the real Ken Burns Civil War one. From the stupid subtitles to the famous voiceovers to the following of two people involved, it's impeccable.
lol I have all the DVDs I love this show! Also, Bill Odenkirk was the star trek guy, who writes for the Simpsons and Furutama, funny people came from this show :)
Bob playing a character who is "state yelling champion" is pretty hilarious
and the bit at the end where the old guy was filming his parts while waiting for a doctor's appointment is such a classic Mr Show joke, that gets me every time
As a military veteran, I feel confident in saying that this sketch doesn't make fun of people who died for the country. It makes fun of some of the nut jobs that re-enact the shit. Seriously, fucking lighten up.
@FiveInchTaint hi im a civil war reenactor and i do not think were nut jobs we are honoring the fallen and trying to educate the public that doesnt know about this stuff so please do not call us nut jobs.
I'm an American History Major who was forced to attend about 10 re-enactments as a child. They are the most boring, ridiculous activity you have ever seen. I love American History, but people who do this are just fanboy cosplayers.
I went to the '94 Gettysburg Re-enactment when I was 9. I sweat balls for 10 hours and could smell the port-o-potties up to a half mile away. Then, after moving to Florida, I was subjected to "The Battle of Narcoossee Mill" a number of times.

They re-enact to remember those who died to change this country, ourlives, and the world forever. They aren't pretending to be brave, they are remembering,and getting as close to history as they can.

This is produced close enough to Ken Burns' style that it took me a while to catch on! Nice job. We're about to release the feature "Dog Jack" in which we spent many a memorable day with reenactors from all over the country.

I agree with George Carlin when he was talking about how dumb these "re-enactments" are and how they should use real ammunition if they are so concerned about authenticity.

This really does remind me of reenactments. I remember when, during the reenactments of the Revolutionary War, the French General Staff showed up...sort of like the two Lincolns. Then of course, there was the Battle of Grenada Highlands, where a Union Cavalry soldier showed up in line with a group of advancing British Grenadiers - sort of like the space people. Very Well done!

We simulate the glory of the men who could not be here today.
Jay Johnston's inappropriate emotion is the best thing about this skit, except the straight-faced officer who tries to negotiate between "the civil war chums, the medieval folks, and the space people."

I'm an American History Major who was forced to attend about 10 re-enactments as a child. They are the most boring, ridiculous activity you have ever seen. I love American History, but people who do this are just fanboy cosplayers.

I went to the '94 Gettysburg Re-enactment when I was 9. I sweat balls for 10 hours and could smell the port-o-potties up to a half mile away. Then, after moving to Florida, I was subjected to "The Battle of Narcoossee Mill" a number of times.
