Tom Scharpling's "Best Show" on WFMU, Video Contest Entry

[jmronan]

I will now only picture this when listening to the Best Show!

[gluecement]

That is the awesomest thing I've seen on Youtube in a long time. Love that sardonic humor!

[fluxusreadymade]

Love the video.

But please edit out that stupid song on the end...

[Kibblesmith]

Ha, thanks.

But it is what it is. I wouldn't recognize it without the song at this point.

[quixoto]

@fluxusreadymade

You have got to be kidding me. That song a the end is the best thing about this video, y'know that is if you discount the amazing puppeteering and synchronization.

[badinia]

VERY AWESOME! I especially liked the giggling pig puppet.

[abrahamjoseph]

when is this thing going to just get announced as the winner, already?

[pjh1982]

That's awesome! I would totally watch that every week, instead of listening to the podcasts

[m31transient]

Kibblesmith, tell your Jimmy Pardo story to the masses.

[Kibblesmith]

Fantastic puppets and puppeteering within superb scenery...Amazing editing...Excellent lighting...and FUN as hell...Really hilarious how visuals match the audio so well.

Thanks so much for this joyful and inspiring piece which I can't stop watching over and over and over and over and....

[Kibblesmith]

Thank you! You sound like a professional awards acceptance speech writer!

[FunnyHaHaFunnyHaHa]

Tom Scharpling is a giant talent. A great one.

[eyenoise]

[abrahamjoseph]

did this win?

[Kibblesmith]

I don't know yet, I think they're announcing around September. But it got mentioned on the air, which is a pretty big prize on its own.

[24v7v420]

Aww, if only you had picked a sound clip that was funny or interesting.

[Kibblesmith]

OH SNAP

[mostlymeat]

This made me cry two times in a row. I love it! I would like to see a whole Best Show done like this. It makes so much sense.

It's perfect.

I love it.

[Kibblesmith]

I am all about making strangers cry.

[Usurper84]

Ahhhhh, classic Scharpling. Get off my phone!

[bmichie]

I'm a cow spitting milk out my nose that's so funny.

[claytes]

[adtjones]

There have been some other great entries, but this was something special. W+

[PassionFor]

FRONTRUNNER!!!!

[Kibblesmith]

I don't need to outrun the bear, I just need to outrun this open can of bear food!

[Fradom]

This is a work of awe-inspiring Art.

[Kibblesmith]

Thanks! Also, for the Seth G. clip. I'm glad someone in that family has the drive to be more than a handsome, shiftless roustabout.

[sparkiepop]

I love it! Total W.

[latinhouseparty]

Great!

[vb7000]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[jixbyphillips]

Fantastic!

[DorvidBarnas]

Incredibly well done, you bastard.

I guess I'll go back to work on my next conest entry, knowing full well that it's now DOOOOMED to obscurity.

Again, awesome job, kibblesmith. Amazing job.

You bastard.

[Kibblesmith]

Thanks, you bastard! I liked yours too.

[DorvidBarnas]

That's nice of you to say, Daniel. Thank you.

It's true that the contest is really just about fun and the sharing of Tom-influenced artistic expression.

I hope you'll make many more videos for FOTs to enjoy. (Before I end you, that is, you ringer rat bastard. I'll see you in the nonagon.)
