It's brilliant. Tells you without using words that alright, this earthquake has gone on long enough that they're starting to have to try to have normal lives again.
I still can't get over the fact that we now have WKUK in HD. I feel like an 1890s Parisian recoiling in horror at the Lumiere brothers movie of a train coming into the station.
I think that's the theme of the sketch, relief after dealing with a chronic annoyance. The earthquake made everyone really cranky and on edge, and when it stopped, everyone basically laughed off the whole indecency trial.
good job saying something you had just seen. I don't know where we would be as a society if people didn't parrot lines like someone who can't add to a discussion. 'hahaha he said "blahblah"'. we get it @supercharleyman. we were there.
He’s quoting a line he liked. Imagine being on the internet so much you feel the need to attack someone who is just quoting something from the video you watched. Grow up.
Its those little things you notice after watching a wkuk sketch for the 1,000,000,000th time that makes ya laugh for no reason, like the fact the tv they watch the news on is behind the couch and table lol
Fan theory: The sofa moves during the earthquake and it is facing the opposite direction as the TV. Because the earthquake has been going on for so long, it can be assumed that the sofa has been spun around in the two day process. It hasn't been fixed yet because the quake is still going on and it would spin again.
@@parkerjeans5777 They hadn't yet when my comment was posted, and I have since watched their discussion, although I appreciate your efforts to make me aware ☺️
I'm so glad you guys are back in a way. I've always loved sketch comedy, especially growing up with Monty Python and later you fine gentlemen. I'd love to start or join one myself but I have no idea how to go about it.
The D&D series is actually probably a better sketch troupe starter tutorial than it is a fantasy role playing session. Just do what Trevor suggests you do in that, and you'll be on your way to sketch troupe gold faster than WKUK arbitrarily heel turns on an OwlBear.
I'm super happy these are coming out in HD. WKUK got me through some REALLY rough times back in the day. They're literally pros at pointing out the human condition...they've always made me feel not so alone in this stupid penal colony we call Earth. True artists.
Stacy Ladynews is my favorite fake name of the entire series. Her poorly applied makeup is so funny to me And "well the goddamnfuckinglight hit me in the head" never fails to make me laugh. A truly brilliant sketch on so many levels
This sketch has everything: Trevor pouring milk badly Sam sitting on a couch facing the wrong way Looters looting badly A dog Swearing The list goes on

@@rorschachsjournal2084 well they definitely arent making money off it but the views arent that low it ends up getting just around their subscriber count usually which is like 50,000 people. I wonder how many viewers they had for each episode of the tv show? I tried to find out and couldnt
I just noticed a lot of the newspaper text is someone just mashing the same row of keys to fill it out. It really adds to the charm. Also, apparently this all happened on Monday, November 15th, 1983.
That was a subtle joke-the defendant says he swore because the light hit him in the head. Then the juror says "fudgey stuff" instead of swearing when the light hits him in the head. Then the defendant's lawyers mutter "well, this isn't looking good."
One day artificial intelligence will allow us to create a version of every WKUK episode but make them happier and with their mouths waaaaaay more open. Even the happier and with your mouth open sketch.
2:04 Is that the DARKMATTER2525 lawyer..!? Also, what is Stacy Ladynews gunna hold him to..?? Anyways, that is one of the best endings ever..!! xDDDDDDD
I love that they’re doing commentary on these sketches again lol if anyone has seen their first commentary episodes they said no one watch or care yet they have almost 70k subs lol
I already follow WKUK but the video popped up on my feed (not auto play or related videos) as I was still watching a video about earthquakes which I thought was a funny coincidence

I like how the 2 guys at the beginning are just false protagonists.
@ihate names maybe you're right a false protagonist is way more developed.
i would classify them as supporting roles to the television, which i would say is the framing device. almost a pun.
They're not false protagonists. You see them again at the end.

@@Ken-ru6or you are not very smart, I hope this helps
The best part is how he looks out the window to check if the earthquake had stopped
I thought so too.
"go check if there's any earthquake outside"
It's quite helpful if there's long-ass pole outside. Makes em much more obvious if the earthquake did stopped or it just lessen
a wave of buildings suddenly ceasing to shake, cascading across the land
I love how the earthquake barely matters by the end of the sketch but is absolutely integral to the punchline
I love the commentary for this sketch because when they were writing it, the earthquake went on so long it pretty much just becomes a different sketch

I hope you make a video about the Civil War On Drugs
You could always buy the bluray
Holy shit its Johnny Red
If there was no earthquake, would sam have won that game of chess against himself?
doubtful
He doesn’t know how to play chess
He was just counting his Christmas chocolates
I like that even though it's fake, I legitimately feel a sense of relief when the earthquake stops.
I think that's the theme of the sketch, relief after dealing with a chronic annoyance.
The earthquake made everyone really cranky and on edge, and when it stopped, everyone basically laughed off the whole indecency trial.
I live in an area with hurricanes and I feel like this when the power goes out for hours or days and suddenly comes back on. It’s the best.
I've been in a lot of earthquakes and that's universal
How do you fake an earthquake lol

3 years later and no results cousin?
I love how the entire Jim Laidoff storyline happened because the team got bored with the Earthquake sketch.

My favorite detail is that the lipstick of the news lady is smeared all over the place cause it was shaking when she was putting it on.
@@Algarath id say that was pretty noticeable

Genius! It always bothered me that the TV was behind the couch, but your logic is flawless!
Ah, the masters of ending a sketch gracefully. Good to see it performed so beautifully. Also, please come back Trev.
I love how the newspaper guy is just hucking newspapers around :D
Extra, extra free newspapers!
And how he already had newspapers for when it stopped, 2 seconds later LOL!
I’ve seen this sketch hundreds of times and I’ve only just now noticed the last names Ladynews and Laidoff. -_-
needed to be in HD to hear it.
Bob Sloppy agreed.
I got Ladynews right away. Seemed a bit on the nose. But Laidoff slipped right by me.

I've been watching WKUK while sick, then passing out and having the wildest fever dreams I've ever had.
The ending to this sketch is unusually wholesome for WKUK.
All these years later, I'm still amazed they were able to get away with saying f*dgy st*ff without an FCC fine.
One of my favorite sketches. So many little things I keep finding after watching it more and more
this is my favorite sketch i've seen so far, quality throughout
Judge’s wince when Laidoff swears 10/10.
This whole fudgy sketch is the best. It’s so dense, every frame has so much going on
I'm super happy these are coming out in HD. WKUK got me through some REALLY rough times back in the day.
They're literally pros at pointing out the human condition...they've always made me feel not so alone in this stupid penal colony we call Earth.

This sketch has everything:
Trevor pouring milk badly
Sam sitting on a couch facing the wrong way
Looters looting badly
A dog
Swearing
The list goes on
"...and astronauts were not even asked about it." hahah
The delivery and voice of "oh fudgey stuff!" is perfection
Sam dropped that wood-finish TV twice in the background.
The transition into the court case is comic genius. But why is their TV behind the couch??
Two day earthquake moved the couch around? *Shrug*
This is now. Love you WKUK

Your honor I've been told that one of the ladies in the jury is guilty of taking Timmy's mixer in the divorce, I call for a mistrial!
More importantly your honor, I hear that one of the jurors is auditioning for principle rolls!
Some of the sketches you know is just WKUK wanting to indulge in that primal urge to make a massive mess of everything.
I think I'll use this skit from now on when I try to explain to someone what wkuk is
I just noticed a lot of the newspaper text is someone just mashing the same row of keys to fill it out. It really adds to the charm.
Also, apparently this all happened on Monday, November 15th, 1983.
I love how the TV is behind the couch for some reason
The best part is obviously everyone waiting patiently while the prosecutor checks to see if the earthquake was over.
why's no one talking about the guy that said "Oh! Fudgey stuff!" lol
easily my favorite part
watch the vod lol
That was a subtle joke-the defendant says he swore because the light hit him in the head. Then the juror says "fudgey stuff" instead of swearing when the light hits him in the head. Then the defendant's lawyers mutter "well, this isn't looking good."
It kills me how Trevor runs to the window to see if the earthquake stopped
The news report graphic looks like a logo for a black metal band.
If only they said their lines happier with their mouths open
way way way way happier. just way way way way way more open.
More open
One day artificial intelligence will allow us to create a version of every WKUK episode but make them happier and with their mouths waaaaaay more open.

Thanks for the uploading, guys. You've all been missed!
Timmy'd outbursts when the lights fall and almost hit him kill me every time
one of my fav sketches!!
The smeared makeup is a brilliant touch
The small details of this were so well done
I like that people are actually able to stand and walk after a two day earthquake instead of falling all over the place lol.
This is truly impressive for how low budget their skits were
This may be my favorite sketch ever
"EFFING ESS"
Arghh, fudgy stuff!
The Joker-style lipstick really makes this. :D
Just going about his morning getting cereal while a massive earthquake is happening LMAO
Love that's their tv set is behind the couch
I love the scribbled handwriting on the news
Gotta give it up to sam for keeping the chess board together untill trevor walked in.
wow watching that genuinely gave me a headache, but it was so funny i couldn't stop.
Timmy you are the best! You make my days brighter!
I love watching sketches and knowing that they had no idea how to end it
Everyone else in the courtroom is struggling to stand and Trevor is just being a gangster about it. RIP LOCAL SEXPOT
He did however get the death penalty. Well deserved in my opinion.
May he burn in hell.
One of my favorites!
I really thought going back and watching some of these would ruin my memory of them. But nope, this show still fuckin rocks.
trevor running to the window to see if the earthquake stopped is fucking hilarious
“ooooooooooh fudgy stuff!”
“well this isn’t looking good…”
gets me every time. thanks for the laughs!
Haha I've seen this so many times and never noticed the newspapers month and day is my birthday
0:32 lol Sam trying to play chess by himself during an earthquake.
Ok but isn’t this the ONE sketch that reuploading in HD doesn’t matter for?
They reuploaded it bc they did a new video talking about it
And you call yourself a fan, derp
Idk but it's a vast improvement from that 144p upload
This is the one sketch that NEEDS it. :p
Try watching in 60 fps
2:25 Well I guess there are *some* benefits to an earthquake.
I can see two of em right here!
Masterpiece
This show is timeless
Wow the budget on this was James Cameron esc. Multiple custom sets and an entire backlot was built on shake tables just to sell the effect.
The entire sketch was born on the premise of the shaken soda joke.
Trevor's hair makes the shaking even more chaotic.
Ok, but can we see the end of the sketch way way happier and with their mouths way way more open
I love all the subtle nuances in this episode. like the headline being written janky and the make up being scribbled on because of the earthquake lol
This is one of my favorite Skits 😂 next to the “Strip Club Names”
I live that Tyler The Creator wrote a whole song about how much he loved this sketch
love how the newspaper crier looks like he came from 1913
One of my favorites.
After all these years, I just now realized this sketch takes place in the 80s.
...Why?
So they had cheap TVs to break
Swearing on TV was big deal back then.
Those TVs are funnily enough the only TVs worth watching their shit aspect ratio dvds on
This is the best build-up i have ever seen 🤣 comedy gold 🏅
2:04 Is that the DARKMATTER2525 lawyer..!?
Also, what is Stacy Ladynews gunna hold him to..??
Anyways, that is one of the best endings ever..!!
xDDDDDDD
Best part is the judge banging the gavel while laughing along
I love his reaction to what was said. Kills me every time. 2:23
I love the fact the couch doesn't face the tv
I love that they’re doing commentary on these sketches again lol if anyone has seen their first commentary episodes they said no one watch or care yet they have almost 70k subs lol
like 20sec in, knowing completely what im about to watch, i shoot snoot out my nose..
