@RevRexJames Most casting directors would allow you to do this once or twice before telling you to get on with it. Since the whole thing is predicated on this one joke, it probably wouldn't go over well.

@murielmcd I know most people use 'canned laughter' and 'laugh track' when talking about any shows with laughter in the audio, but just in case you didn't know the show is filmed/shown in front of a studio audience. It doesn't make it any better if the laughter annoys you, but IDK, at least you know it's genuine.
Mr. Show was one of the best sketch shows of all time. I'd say only a couple come close to it. One of those is Human Giant, which makes me belly laugh every damn episode.
I was listening to the DVD commentary for this sketch and apparently someone they knew tried this gag on Lorne Michaels during an actual audition and it did not go over very well. >D
i can't image anyone not liking this. this is like abbott and costello's who's on first funny, as it keeps going on it just keeps getting better. maybe i'm just drunk right now, but i'm loving it
@bulldogofwar agreed. although I'm a huge fan of david cross, I consider this one of more inferior works. It relies too much on repetition and gets old VERY quickly.
@Christianitylol ???? are you kidding me? it relies on repetition because COMEDY relies on repetition and rhythm. The repetition in this is like the chorus to a song, bringing you back to the familar. Not to mention, the repetition builds the tension each time to what new way the producers are going to ruin his reading. Who's on First, maybe the most famous sketch ever. Gee, no repetition in that ...
i was referred to this from armstrong and miller (actual comedy) and i am thoroughly disappointed. americans should stick to their humour and brits should stay with theirs
I don't know what you heard about me, but I'm a different kind of cop. I'm from the streets, and I'm the laaaaaaaaaaaaast cop you'll ever want to mess with in an en-darkened alley
Anyone who has ever been on an audition, should have a special affinity for this skit. Thie first two minutes of most auditions begin with "can I use this chair?" or "can I stand up," instead" or "can I sit?." Hehe. Not that one won't or can't find this funny if one's never auditioned. Just sayin'
This one is great. It reminds me also of an SNL sketch where Rob Schneider was playing a "streetcorner musician" who was begging for money, but castigated the listeners for giving money. This sketch is better, but that one was cool too.
You got the goods.
