7:25 the idea of a terrifying serial killer constantly having an upbeat wholesome sitcom theme play from him for no discernable reason is so hilarious to me
This is one of the first times I heeded the suggestion of watching the original media BEFORE the Kill Count instead of watching it afterwards. Too Many Cooks was VERY interesting and I'm extremely glad I watched it before this video. If you're scrolling through the comments before you watch this kill count, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND watching Too Many Cooks before this Kill Count if you've never seen it before. It's quite the experience, and if you struggle with watching long form media like me, Too Many Cooks is only 11 minutes.
I'm glad the Weird Kill Counts have continued. These are great, and even through the strikes are over, I'd love to keep seeing these on a regular basis.
@@adamtrout7711 Sure, but these have all been his own passion project style videos that he's wanted to do for a while. There's nothing saying we couldn't get one of these Weird Kill Counts once a month.
The weird/strange era of Dead Meat has been unironically one of the greatest things and I'm so glad I'm experiencing it in real time as it unfolds. Thank you James, Chelsea, Zoran and the entire team for giving all horror media an amazing spotlight and a new way to enjoy it. Love you guys and stay being good people. 💙
"Hollywood appealing" yes I was appealing to "Hollywood" by... supporting a strike against the studios and producers and NOT covering their work on the channel. Quite a galaxy brain you got there dude.
@@DeadMeat do you think what you were doing was going against Hollywood? You were quite literally working with them so you could keep your connections. Now that’s a big brain play right here James. Fans have really been loving these horrible covered kill counts in place of actual quality stuff all for you to keep Hollywood executives in your contacts list. Galaxy brain there James
As an avid adult swim fan since i was a kid, i had never seen of, or heard of too many cooks up until i saw this kill count. As an avid dead meat fan, i took james advice and went and watched too many cooks for the first time before i watched this kill count, and MAN, was i absolutely blown away and shook to my core at the absolutely masterpiece of hilariousness that is that short, and this kill count EXPONENTIALLY increases the depth of that watch with all the history and reference clarifying. You’all are amazing! Thank you for illuminating me on exactly how many cooks there actually are!
James being a Venture Bros fan makes me very happy, also this is just a perfect kill count. Hope we still get the weird and obscure throughout the mainstream horror.
I actually only subscribed because my first kill count was the original, not recounted, "Curse of Chucky" and he made a reference to Baron Underbeit in it! I'm glad I subscribed.
He said in the livestreams and some podcasts that there will be some weird Kill Counts sprinkled in from time to time. He already announced Treevenge as the Christmas bonus Kill Count (I think)
After the first couple of seconds of footage, I had to pause it and go watch the original. So good. The campiness, the nostalgia, even the undercurrent of creepiness when you see the killer in the background. I used to watch Adult Swim all the time, even until late at night when I could get away with it, but never knew this existed. Thanks for introducing this to me!
I was actually able to catch this when it aired on adult swim. I literally thought it was an actual show for about 2 minutes until it just kept going and going and suddenly I'm watching an existential nightmare that I couldn't look away from. I love it!
I literally can’t stop laughing about that dynasty hawk transition replaying four times. The fact that it was kept in even though it was a mistake is even funnier.
@@DripVunny That one is a bit complicated to answer admittedly: it’s either horror comedy-adjacent or dark fantasy depending on your perspective. Although either way it is one of the most violent shows [as] ever made, and a lot of people who only watched the show casually might be surprise to know this series has lore too
If Dead Meat can do a semi-annual thing of these, like different horror media besides movies and TV, that would be awesome!!! I hope ya’ll can keep mixing things up like this, alongside classic Kill Count vids!!!
This era of dead meat is the best honestly. While I do miss the classic kill count format, I think the different media types for these new kill counts are just as great
Another banger for the Weird Era. I watched this for the first time last night in preparation for the kill count, and I have no idea how the hell I missed this masterpiece. The way the opening credits keep going and going, getting darker and more twisted, until you realize, that it's the entire short. It's genius, and that theme song's going to be stuck in my head for a very long time. Which is good because I love it.
If you loved this, I recommend you watch Unedited footage of a bear and This house has people in it. Different flavors of greatness. Provided you haven't already seen them.
I just watched it for the first time before this kill count and was genuinely surprised with how clever, unique, and actually frightening it was. It’s a masterpiece on how to combine horror and comedy.
Too Many Cooks Kill Count was unexpected but oh so welcome. This short has always felt like some sort of fever dream. Katie Adkins showing up here was fantastic!
Decided to watch Too Many Cooks totally blind after you mentioned it was only an 11 minute bit and boy was I not disappointed. I laughed so hard I cried to proceeded to show it to everyone who would let me force it upon this. This kill count was a delight and considering I also watched the podcast episode before this, Katie being there for the to the numbers bit made me so excited. This was such a great episode. I love these off the wall things
Yes! so happy to see this here. I was introduced to "Too Many Cooks" about a year ago when my roommate called me into the living room and said "I've got something to show you." With absolutely zero context whatsoever I spent the next ten minutes having my brain slowly melted in to jelly. 10/10 experience.
James saying the pie chart was played expertly by Lars Von Trier might’ve been my favorite joke here lol. Also, I somehow had no idea that The Scooby Doo Project was done by Caspar Kelly!
never would i have thought i’d see a too many cooks kill count!! i also have a deep love for this masterpiece and i could watch it endlessly. its so funny, clever, and of course dark!! the earworm of a song also never fails to get stuck in my head when i remember it haha 😭 i’m so happy you had katie back for the ttn bit aaaa!! this is definitely one of my new fav kc of all time ❤
My first thought as soon as I saw this kill count was "man, the to the numbers bit is going to be brilliant." I remember watching this right after coming back from work to wind down (which in hindsight I should have known wouldn't happen because it's Adult Swim) and not being remotely prepared for the unsettling hilarity. I still go back to it every so often when that song slithers back into my brain.
That would be a great name, however I don’t think a sequel is likely. One of the most effective elements of this is the unexpected length. To do it again (as a sequel likely would) would cheapen the core element of the original.
Incredible! Never expected this but so glad it happened. And the numbers bit was so well made! Love the eye movements and the cameo! Thanks for getting this re-stuck in my head for several months lol
I love too many cooks and adore that it gave us a few years where adult swim would just air the weirdest shit and we would all try to figure out what the hell we just watched.
Ah finally. With this I am finally caught up on all kill counts. I found this channel less than a year after he started doing kill counts I would take a break from watching every once and awhile and after my most recent break of OVER A YEAR I started to watch everything I missed about 2-3 weeks ago. Now with this which was uploaded today coincidently, I am fully caught up.
I stumbled upon Too Many Cooks with zero context when flipping through channels in the middle of the night and it was one of the funniest and most absurd things I’ve experienced.
When Too Many Cooks first came out I wasn't able to watch it since I was terrified of all things horror. Now thanks to Dead Meat Podcast here I am after having seen it 10x laughing my ass off. Oh I'm jaded lol
i was ready to watch another kill count of a thing i hadn't seen before, i had heard of TMC but never cared to watch it but for some reason as soon as James told me to pause this video to watch it at 0:18 i did. and boy howdy am i glad i did.
Excited to see this get a kill count! I was one of the lucky few that genuinely saw this the night it aired while caught completely off guard. Calling it entertaining might be an understatement lmao.
I already said how much I wanted this Kill Count on the community post but after wanting this video for months, I could say that this is definitely worth the wait. Thank you so much for covering my favorite short horror thing of all time. You don’t know my pure happiness when I saw a ton of things in this like you mentioning the editing thinh with the falcon and doing your own yellow nametag at the end. Thank you for being a good person, James
Love this! I reference Too Many Cooks all the time(it’s easy when you work in a restaurant lol) no one ever gets it! Thanks James and the Dead Meat team y’all do your fans a good service! ❤️❤️❤️
Fun fact the "totally cool kid" at 3:41, Gwydion Lashlee-Walton, is actually in Season 4 of Stranger Things! He plays one of the Hellfire members named Gareth, who gets thrown into an drum kit and his hand stepped on by Jason when he's searching for Eddie after Chrissy's death Also love everyone on the Dead Meat team who puts in so much effort to run my absolute favorite youtube channel, y'all are amazing and the weird era will be missed!
I will never forget seeing this for the first. Then, later in life, showing it to my daughter who is a budding horror fan. She didn't get any of the references, but she still really enjoyed it
Don't know how I managed to miss this for so many years, but glad I did because I managed to go into it totally cold, with no idea of what it was all about (just like the original 2014 airing). Man, what a TREAT. Thanks so much, James. You made my day today! 👍
James is legitimately one of, if not the best movie commentator I’ve seen on YT, it’ll be cool if he has like different channels for different genres of movies or something like that, that’ll be tight
5:45 I worked at an art house movie theater 12 years ago & they showed a screening of Lars Von Trier’s Antichrist, one of the most WTF movie I’ve ever seen
Your podcast episode with Katie was what turned me onto this short a full decade after it’s release! Very glad I listened to your advice this time to watch before listening to the podcast, what a ride!
Too Many Cooks is definitely a masterpiece and a great example of campy humor done right! I actually talk to Victoria on occasion and she's actually such an inspiring, down to earth person! Which is surprising given the way she stood out in this one 😂😂 Definitely never thought I'd see this on the Kill Count! Thanks for this one, James!
As an unitiated, I'm very glad you shared this with me! Paused the video to go watch it, and was not disappointed, it was great, and this was a wonderful episode covering it!
It's so crazy hearing about Mike lazo and venture Brothers, because I just finished the entire series yesterday, it is a masterpiece of a show. Seriously, it plays on all the '60s style Johnny quest boy adventurer solves crimes and mysteries around the globe trope. I cannot stress this enough, ends abruptly but so enjoyable up to the final moments. It's on max
I friggen loved watching this short, my parents showed me this and my mind tried to comprehend anything within the short, but looking after it after examining it, it’s pretty genius. I’m so glad we got a kill count, even if it’s something I never expected. Well done!
Since I'm German, Adult Swim wasn't really on my radar until I started watching things on the internet, so I was today years old (28) when watching Too Many Cooks for the first time and man what an experience that was. Thank you, James!
Thanks for the recommendation James! I'd never heard of this and went to watch it, totally loved it. Dead Meat is great for introducing me to horror I never knew existed!
I swear, OG Adult Swim was out here living its life because I remember watching Children's Hospital and being confused, not realizing its a spoof of daytime soap operas
Thanks so much James for covering this kill count I've watched it on adult swim 11 minute intro so amazing you All thank James Chelsea zoran and the crew for giving us horror media I've been loving you guys and be good people 💜💜
I remember watching this the day it came out, I woke up in the middle of the night and watched it when I was like 8 and I was just confused by the time it ended But it was funny as hell I was amazed that IT’s remembered and thought it was just a dream
I will miss The Weird Era. I totally understand needing to keep the lights on, but I hope you can keep throwing a bone to us B-movie fans once in a while.
Adult Swim sure does love messing with people, its a lot of fun. This Kill Count was a lot of fun, I'm glad you guys had so much fun making it and got to have some guest stars.
I remember watching and only recognizing the actress who plays Enid from TWD and I remember once the first part finished it kept looping I was like omg how long is this going to last lmao 😂😂😂😂
You know its honestly a shame that the "weird" kill counts arent getting that many views because they're honestly some of my favourite videos from the whole channel

"This house has people in it" is also a fantastic adult swim short. "Unedited footage of a bear" is also really good.
Unfortunately, they don't have super high kill counts
@@buzzedbeelzebub9454as long as they have two they can be on the count, right?
Those are the 2 main Alan Resnick ones while Caspar Kelly did this and the Yule Log movie. Highly recommend all of it.
@@buzzedbeelzebub9454Assuming that are any.
@@tonypeppermint5329 Right, kills aren't really the point
A too many cooks kill count was not something I was expecting but I’m so happy it was made
It's something you didn't know you needed
My thoughts exactly.
@nerdrecorporated-sp4ry sorry I’m not chronically online and didn’t see the announcement
This ^^ lol
can't stop laughing at 2:36 so 80s dad so perfect 😂😂😂

so glad to see this get a kill count. one of my favourite short films ever and definetly deserves the kill count treatment!
doubt it
I wonder if they have a sequel, would they call it "Spoil the Broth"?
That would be a great name, however I don’t think a sequel is likely. One of the most effective elements of this is the unexpected length. To do it again (as a sequel likely would) would cheapen the core element of the original.

I stumbled upon Too Many Cooks with zero context when flipping through channels in the middle of the night and it was one of the funniest and most absurd things I’ve experienced.
When Too Many Cooks first came out I wasn't able to watch it since I was terrified of all things horror. Now thanks to Dead Meat Podcast here I am after having seen it 10x laughing my ass off.
Oh I'm jaded lol
i was ready to watch another kill count of a thing i hadn't seen before, i had heard of TMC but never cared to watch it but for some reason as soon as James told me to pause this video to watch it at 0:18 i did. and boy howdy am i glad i did.
I read the thumbnail wrong 💀
Bro I didn’t even think about that
Wait why did u click on the video if u thought it said something different
What did you think it said
Why’d you click on it then
@@GoobTheGoober123 Bro how do you not know lol
I LOVE that this played unannounced at 4am. Curious how traumatised it left those watching live.
13:37
I completely forgot you said Katie was a friend of yours, nevertheless seeing her make a cameo looking straight out of the short made me smile
Too many cooks feels like a fever dream ngl
Excited to see this get a kill count! I was one of the lucky few that genuinely saw this the night it aired while caught completely off guard. Calling it entertaining might be an understatement lmao.
The amount of friends in the horror community is crazy. I like it.
This short is SO funny and has so many great references, I'm glad you covered it!
I already said how much I wanted this Kill Count on the community post but after wanting this video for months, I could say that this is definitely worth the wait. Thank you so much for covering my favorite short horror thing of all time. You don’t know my pure happiness when I saw a ton of things in this like you mentioning the editing thinh with the falcon and doing your own yellow nametag at the end. Thank you for being a good person, James
Love this! I reference Too Many Cooks all the time(it’s easy when you work in a restaurant lol) no one ever gets it! Thanks James and the Dead Meat team y’all do your fans a good service! ❤️❤️❤️
Fun fact the "totally cool kid" at 3:41, Gwydion Lashlee-Walton, is actually in Season 4 of Stranger Things! He plays one of the Hellfire members named Gareth, who gets thrown into an drum kit and his hand stepped on by Jason when he's searching for Eddie after Chrissy's death
Also love everyone on the Dead Meat team who puts in so much effort to run my absolute favorite youtube channel, y'all are amazing and the weird era will be missed!
I love that the Kill Count is longer than the video its about 😂
i swear this clip was figment of my imagination but here James is…..explaining it on a kill count😂😂Thanks James , i feel less crazy now
Another piece of exceptional content James. You sure do know a lot about old sitcoms too.
13:59 most insane joke you’ve ever made 😭
Hell nah 😭
I will never forget seeing this for the first. Then, later in life, showing it to my daughter who is a budding horror fan. She didn't get any of the references, but she still really enjoyed it
Don't know how I managed to miss this for so many years, but glad I did because I managed to go into it totally cold, with no idea of what it was all about (just like the original 2014 airing).
Man, what a TREAT.
Thanks so much, James. You made my day today! 👍
I love the Katie cameo and even the "glitch" with her hair change lol
I am so beyond glad I went and watched the short before the Kill Count. It truly is something to experience for a first time.
James is legitimately one of, if not the best movie commentator I’ve seen on YT, it’ll be cool if he has like different channels for different genres of movies or something like that, that’ll be tight
5:45 I worked at an art house movie theater 12 years ago & they showed a screening of Lars Von Trier’s Antichrist, one of the most WTF movie I’ve ever seen
Your podcast episode with Katie was what turned me onto this short a full decade after it’s release! Very glad I listened to your advice this time to watch before listening to the podcast, what a ride!
Too Many Cooks is definitely a masterpiece and a great example of campy humor done right! I actually talk to Victoria on occasion and she's actually such an inspiring, down to earth person! Which is surprising given the way she stood out in this one 😂😂 Definitely never thought I'd see this on the Kill Count! Thanks for this one, James!
This is my favorite and the best kill count of all time.
This is amazing! So glad you did a kill count for Too Many Cooks! 👨🍳
As an unitiated, I'm very glad you shared this with me! Paused the video to go watch it, and was not disappointed, it was great, and this was a wonderful episode covering it!
Typical adult swim, comedic and terrifying in its own special way.
It's so crazy hearing about Mike lazo and venture Brothers, because I just finished the entire series yesterday, it is a masterpiece of a show. Seriously, it plays on all the '60s style Johnny quest boy adventurer solves crimes and mysteries around the globe trope. I cannot stress this enough, ends abruptly but so enjoyable up to the final moments. It's on max
I friggen loved watching this short, my parents showed me this and my mind tried to comprehend anything within the short, but looking after it after examining it, it’s pretty genius. I’m so glad we got a kill count, even if it’s something I never expected. Well done!
there’s a bunch of weird and horrifying shit that aired in the infomercials slot. I’d love to see you cover some of it
The funniest part of this video is undoubtedly "Wait a minute, this is my house"
Since I'm German, Adult Swim wasn't really on my radar until I started watching things on the internet, so I was today years old (28) when watching Too Many Cooks for the first time and man what an experience that was. Thank you, James!
Thanks for the recommendation James! I'd never heard of this and went to watch it, totally loved it. Dead Meat is great for introducing me to horror I never knew existed!
I swear, OG Adult Swim was out here living its life because I remember watching Children's Hospital and being confused, not realizing its a spoof of daytime soap operas
Thanks so much James for covering this kill count I've watched it on adult swim 11 minute intro so amazing you All thank James Chelsea zoran and the crew for giving us horror media I've been loving you guys and be good people 💜💜
I remember watching this the day it came out, I woke up in the middle of the night and watched it when I was like 8 and I was just confused by the time it ended
But it was funny as hell
I was amazed that IT’s remembered and thought it was just a dream
8:57
Gotta love the Head On refrence in the kill graphic, too!!!
Literally just watched this and im so confused... Thank you for making me question reality before i even have my morning cup of coffee
I will miss The Weird Era. I totally understand needing to keep the lights on, but I hope you can keep throwing a bone to us B-movie fans once in a while.
Yay Katie!!!! Everyone should go watch Reel Nightmares. It’s absolutely fantastic!!

It’s taken 5 years to get this song out of my head now it’s back james 😢
Adult Swim sure does love messing with people, its a lot of fun. This Kill Count was a lot of fun, I'm glad you guys had so much fun making it and got to have some guest stars.
Props to the editor, keeping James' name on his body for each frame in that gag must've been a pain.
I remember watching and only recognizing the actress who plays Enid from TWD and I remember once the first part finished it kept looping I was like omg how long is this going to last lmao 😂😂😂😂
You know its honestly a shame that the "weird" kill counts arent getting that many views because they're honestly some of my favourite videos from the whole channel
Some of my favorite memories are hotboxing my college housemates room while watching this on repeat dying laughing the entire time
I watched "Too many cooks" as soon as the Kill Count got announced and have NEVER been this excited for one before
14:23 too many "too many cooks"
13:46 kill number 17: james A. Janisse
Cause of death: presumbably freeze - framed killed
