That ad was so incredibly stupid. And yet, it was too funny to skip! I'm not even embarrassed that guffawed the whole way though. Well done boys, I finally watched a TH-camr Scentbird ad in its entirety.
His reactions were so funny i thought it was a reenactment but the guys trying to not laugh made me realize it was real and that dude was just THAT iconic 😂

i think it’s cus of the caption. it took me a bit to even realize this was candid competition just from the caption. i think if they formatted the thumbnail and caption more similarly to their past episodes, it would garner more attraction and have more people realize it’s candid competition
Miles saying "I don't work here so I can kiss Zach as much as I want" KILLED ME I can't imagine that an employee and one of the try guys would have a sneaky relationship 🤣😭🤣
y'all... I had to pause halfway through and comment. This is the most UNHINGED, SELF AWARE, OFF THE FUCKING RAILS try guys video i've ever seen. Truly a masterpiece of comedy and a commentary on how youtube algorithm works today. BRAVO! If this doesn't win a streamy.. NAY an EMMY I'll personally riot in the streets.
This singleminded devotion to the almighty algorithm is taking us to some insane places. I cannot BELIEVE they got back on the couch. For a fucking candid competition episode 😂😂😂
As someone who used to be a cake decorator at Walmart, that’s so disappointing. I LOVED getting requests for things we werent technically allowed to do, it made my day!
They should absolutely have Johnny make these cakes at some point, maybe not part of the competition, but I want to see his take on skateboarding buff juicy shrek
There is nothing wrong with this episode. This felt just like a look at everyday in the Try Guys office. Absolute no notes. Perfect. Can't wait for the rest of the season
My mother works at a grocery store bakery and I am absolutely BEWILDERED at the person who wrote out the entire prompt on the cake 😂 no one thought “ah let me doodle shrek with icing” who is working at these bakeries 😂😂😂
This is the best Try Guys comedy content that’s been released recently - I love what’s come out in the past year, but THIS is in it’s own league. Keith eating in all of the opening shots and holding the hot sauce… Zach with Keith’s mouth for the Scentbird advertising… the re-creation of the couch shot with Miles in Eugene’s jumpsuit… so good 😂
i actually love how the sponsor/ad was done this time, i love unhinged but informative advertising. it reminds me of the best commercials from my childhood
The highlights for me was: - Miles (we love you boo!) - The callback to... THAT video - The Von guy's pure agony over making this monster of a cake - The Ralph's cake
I’m a graphic designer, sometimes I browse photo stocks for inspiration and I INSTANTLY recognized this image of a snowboarder, it’s THE most popular vector image if you type something like “winter mountains snowboard” 😂
Listen, I know Candid Competition doesn't always get the most views. But it's important to remember that Van Gogh's genius wasn't recognized in his lifetime either. Great art isn't meant to be popular, it's meant to Great. Zach, just keep doing... whatever the hell this is.
14:19 Wait, did…did they…did they ACTUALLY, intentionally, recreate the infamous “what happened” video thumbnail?? In a sexy Shrek cake video??? Unbelievable. Slow clap for the team. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
that cake that writes the entire instruction on it has to be one of the funniest thing ever. i've always wondered if that ever happened when i write mine. pls make MORE of these series 😂😂
i'm OBSESSED with this video. OBSESSED. the intro? the editing? the KEITH addition? the chaotic request itself? all the bakers/decorators who *barely* came through with the request? EVEN THE FREAKING AD? OBSESSEDDDDD
I think Jonny knows them well enough to probably guess this is what they’re doing 😂 also he’d be at risk for copyright and it would be very obvious who the decorator was. They’d have to tell him so he could access the risk
I am a cake decorator at a grocery store and you guys are my worst nightmare . I know exactly what all this employees were thinking while you were talking to them 😂😂😂😂😂
For the grocery store bakery, are there rules for how much time you're allowed to spend on an individual cake? And amounts of frosting/colors? Ive always been interested in cake decorating work but my piping is not consistent
No way someone actually wrote the instructions word for word instead of drawing it. It’s like solving a math problem with some janky method that your teacher never thought you 🤣
Id imagine whoever who was doing it was stressed out of their mind (calling at 5AM :O) and inexperienced. And if Zach really had to just repeat the prompt over and over on they probably got frustrated and took them at their word - that they wanted this and would pay for whatever.
I’m not sure if it was suppose to be shade towards *** as much as it’s just the fact that he couldn’t do “inappropriate” stuff like that before because they were his bosses. But i like your thinking because that’s funny too
it fits, but I'm 99% sure it's a callback to an earlier candid competition episode where they were sitting in a car (probably the engagement episode?) and discussing that they probably should not kiss, not even for the bit, because of the boss-employee relationship. I think it's the same episode where they ask Nick whether pretending to get engaged is even okay from a HR perspective haha.
I agree, it absolutely stems from that (in fact, I thought of that video when nothing happened that September!). But the layered meaning that still exists as a result is just perfection!!! @@leakenny1125
Absolutely loved this: ryan garcia plays the network exec perfectly, Keith's dry sandwich eating delivery, miles behind the hot sauce boxes, Rachel's discomfort, and zach's brilliant Shrek cake descriptions. Chef's kiss 💋
I couldn’t stop laughing this entire video, it was PERFECT. Asking the supermarkets while trying not to die of laughter at the absurd request, the couch setting, the actual cakes (especially the ralph’s one), and just the whole thing overall made me laugh so hard. The editing was magnificent and the little buildups of suspense made the whole thing exhilarating. 11/10, i cannot wait for more candid competition!
Can you imagine Eugene slaving over his novel, neck deep in a title wave of words and thoughts and he gets a call from his cofounders asking for his jumpsuit from a year ago 😂
I've never felt more kinship with Miles than when he was dying inside while Zach was describing the cake on the phone. (And props to Scentbird for approving that unhinged sponsor spot.)
Here’s an idea! How about for every candid competition episode about cakes, we have a bonus episode of Jonny making his own version of the requested cake!!!!
CANDID COMPETITION NEEDS TO GO ON!! This is the content that we WANT! The only episodes I've watched recently are SOME Eat the Menu, High vs Drunk, SOME without a recipe and Candid Competion (which has been the best!)
Wearing the same outfits on the couch. Having a bit where they reference Watcher. It's more unhinged and silly and fun and I love the direction they're taking this
Former grocery cake decorator here! I'm not surprised at these results. Copywrite fines are huge for grocery stores (read:big company can afford them) and often result in decorators losing their jobs. They are also often the only decorator and in charge of more than just cakes. It is a really stressful position and custom cakes like this take a lot longer to make.
@@alexisrose-t5freally?? The decorators get paid like a dollar above minimum wage (I’m considering minimum wage $15 an hour) if they’re lucky, expecting them to show passion for their job, or to risk their job for a Shrek cake is unreasonable
can confirm the copyright thing i used to work in a walmart bakery (not cake decorator but i had to take cake orders) our management was super strict about what we could and couldn’t accept. i’m honestly surprised the walmart even accepted the order
As a former grocery store cake decorator, this was definitely a lot to ask for, especially with the copyright issues, but I totally would’ve tried to make the best skateboarding ogre I could’ve 😂
I once made huge 1/2 sheet, white and pink cake that said "MILF" for mother's day. it was spectacular and my store manager got sooo mad that we allowed it to be sold.
Totally! I worked at store bakery. The cake decorator was a heavy smoker who tried her best but was definitely not trained to do it. She just got stuck with it.
This was a total and complete gem! Soooooo many great quotable moments, Miles making a comeback, Keith coming in with his no-fucks-given attitude and the whole network change of direction segment, the Keith voice over for the ad, the dreaded couch video reference, the complete lack of reaction from the employees as you're describing the cake you want and everyone fighting laughter in the background, then being trolled by the "Hi..." cake with only writing on it. Love it! One of the best vids of yours I've seen in a while. Great start to the comeback of Candid Competition!
i love almost every single try guys video but NOTHING comes close to how much i laugh when zach directs. every single time i find myself gasping for air and about to burst a blood vessel from laughing so hard. please let zach direct more often oml 😭😭
I'm having a hard time coping with how you all managed to reel it in with the form, while also making it more unhinged than it ever was. The adroll made me laugh but also cry from sheer emotion at how stupidly on brand for the whole production, like, not crying from laughter, but laughing and also moved by how much fun I was having. I also have the biggest soft spot for Zach's creativity with the scripted parts. I'm thrilled this is back, I hope y'all get a ton of views and engagement so we get more.
Yeah he knew he couldn’t do what they wanted bc they’d get sued and he’d get in trouble, but he was like if you draw exactly that we can put it on a cake
That was the hardest i have laughed at a try guys video i think ever in all of my 6 years watching their content. I normally dont watch the candid competitions because watching anything scripted makes me wanna die from cringe and i know thats a big part of candid so i normally avoid it like the plauge. But i decided to watch this one to support zach bc he talks a lot about how much this series means to him on the podcast. And im so glad i did this was hysterical i will probably watch it over and over again. The editors did fantastic and rachel's scenes were amazing.
I love everything about Candid Competition. The concept, the team, the approach, the respect to not get people fired, the cinematic pieces at the start and end. It's all so Zach.

That ad was so incredibly stupid.
And yet, it was too funny to skip! I'm not even embarrassed that guffawed the whole way though. Well done boys, I finally watched a TH-camr Scentbird ad in its entirety.
it looks like a vape lol
I hope they paid you big cash for that because that’s the best spot I’ve ever seen for Scentbird.😂
I spit out my coffee watching this.😆😂🤣
I cannot get over the guy from Von’s on the phone audibly sighing in exasperation after every word
+
the von's bakery man groaning at the thought of having to make this cake has me wheezing laughing.
And the little cartoon of him! 😂
I've never related the a human more. He just took all the inside thoughts that we all have working service, and put them outside xD
His reactions were so funny i thought it was a reenactment but the guys trying to not laugh made me realize it was real and that dude was just THAT iconic 😂
I assume that call is recreated with a voice actor because California law requires both parties to consent to calls being recorded
I would not have survived hearing him repeat "Get out of my swamp, Big Boy" - I screamed
Redo this with small bakeries pls, I can imagine they’d actually commit 😂
this is what i was thinking!
Yeah
As someone who works as a cake decorator at a small bakery we would scream in excitement at this order
I think they’d get more views on that video too
They probably don't want to put small businesses on blast and it'd be hard to criticize them and make the video entertain
as a cake decorator, if i got a request this ridiculous, i would scream with joy, confusion, and frustration. When the Von's employee answered "Both," I felt that.
I love how honest that was! 😂
To be honest that employees big brain move to ask for a picture reference is top notch.
@@titheproven954 The moment he did that I *knew* we'd end there, cause they can't say he didn't deliver. He just delivered carefully with no copyright risk while making the work load much more manageable~

For Vons the guy LITERALLY said "send us the picture and we can use THAT for the cake" I knew at that moment he was printing the image and slapping it on the cake 😂😂 Specially after he said "you must do this, you MUST call us to make sure we got the email"
I work at a job where I take these kinds of orders and I knew too. Immediately I knew it was going to be a photo
Yeah, it was so obvious lol he went from stressing "how am I going to do this?!" to being calm and seeing his get out of jail free card
@@tayloranne_I’m at a small business bakery and had to answer 2 “did you get my photo email submission” calls today.
Yeah bc they don’t want to get sued for profiting off of shrek’s likeness
absolutely dying at "the couch." Miles in Eugene's outfit and Keith's aggressive face in the beginning>>>>
i caught that too!!! hahahaha
Nah I think they overdid
😂😂😂 caught me so off guard
I immediately liked the vid after I saw that
I GASPED SO LOUDDDD 😭😭😭
I love how Keith is brought in for “thumbnail help” but isn’t on the thumbnail 😂
I see Keith behind Zach
He’s a lil green but still cute
Advertisers aren't gonna like this 😤😂
TH-cam has a new feature where the creator can have a few thumbnails and whichever one gets more suits ur algorithm it will show that for you
@@Axeres So that's why I have seen different thumbnails for the same video.
I am actually so shocked that Candid Competition doesn't fare well in the algorithm. It is my fave other than WAR.
Honestly it didn’t seem very interesting but once I tried it, I fell in love with it. It’s a really unique series!
THIS
i think it’s cus of the caption. it took me a bit to even realize this was candid competition just from the caption. i think if they formatted the thumbnail and caption more similarly to their past episodes, it would garner more attraction and have more people realize it’s candid competition
Between this and Smoke Show I think youtube might just have a thing against Zach
I have to skip the ordering part. Don't like when unsuspecting people are involved in content. Otherwise I like it.
Miles saying "I don't work here so I can kiss Zach as much as I want" KILLED ME I can't imagine that an employee and one of the try guys would have a sneaky relationship 🤣😭🤣
ohmyfuckinggod XD
Crazy, right?
THAT'S WHY HE SAYS THAT??😂
Johnny cakes needs to make all the different cake ideas we’ve seen in candid comp so far.
Yes!!!! Such a good idea
He can be one of the competitors, but he'd win every time. I guess the joke could be that he'd come in second.
Fantastic idea!
He definitely needs to recreate them!
The way i was just coming to comment this 😂
y'all... I had to pause halfway through and comment.
This is the most UNHINGED, SELF AWARE, OFF THE FUCKING RAILS try guys video i've ever seen. Truly a masterpiece of comedy and a commentary on how youtube algorithm works today.

I cannot BELIEVE they got back on the couch. For a fucking candid competition episode 😂😂😂
I literally cant stop laughing at the cake reveals 😭😭😭😭

Did you do them anyway? I want to get a shrek cake 😭
@@lizp-yl7ve I did!
Petition to have Johnny make Zack his dream cake
He kinda did actually do that at the end of Zack's movie premiere (in the gift wars between him and Keith)!
Yes! Follow up to candid competition where he really makes a caked up generic cool ogre ❤
OR, next episode of CC, have Zack do his usual request of the chains, but then challenge Johnny to do it too
@@iammary191995 ooo I like that!
They should absolutely have Johnny make these cakes at some point, maybe not part of the competition, but I want to see his take on skateboarding buff juicy shrek
Sure, the “people” want eat the menu shrek cakes, but “I” want this nonsensical, meta, cinematic masterpeice
+
This. I cant watch eat the menu because i cannot sTAND eating noises
Yes. More.
yeah! i’m a little sad it seems like zach isn’t able to have his own show
Correct.
If they ever do cakes again, Rachel needs to get Jonny to make a cake secretly with the same instructions and add it to the final reveal line up.
hahaha bro you nailed that this would happen
Ralph’s just transcribing exactly what Zach said onto the cake was hilarious 😂😂
Exactly!!!! The chaos😂😂😂
It was even better because they called Zach multiple times to confirm stuff about the cake 😂 They were determined to be unhinged
There is nothing wrong with this episode. This felt just like a look at everyday in the Try Guys office. Absolute no notes. Perfect. Can't wait for the rest of the season
My mother works at a grocery store bakery and I am absolutely BEWILDERED at the person who wrote out the entire prompt on the cake 😂 no one thought “ah let me doodle shrek with icing” who is working at these bakeries 😂😂😂

As someone who makes custom cakes, this isn't even the most unhinged request I've ever heard. People are crazy.
Ok, but now we have to know what was the most unhinged request?
I think probably the muppets murder scene. 🤔
facts we've gotten feet emailed to my bakery as a request
Lol
We made a screen printed Truly hard soda cake recently. It was a pleasure to witness it

Agree bigly. I don't know what it is but this episode has some extra zing and chemistry.
I know, I really loved it! Had me cackling like a maniac the whole time!!
The comedy layers happening here… at 14:13 i died 😂👏
The opening was the funniest scripted thing I think I've ever seen on the channel. I am so glad they bring Miles around for this stuff, I was howling.
I love it when Zach takes the lead on some of the Try Guys projects. His sense of humor is up my alley.
miles wearing eugenes shirt while keith & zach wore those iconic outfit just defeated the snl skit by miiiiiiiiiles
👈😎👈
✨Bonsignore✨
@@OddOwlOutTH-cam just translated Bonsignore to good sir and I don't know how I never noticed that before 😅
Parodies that'll go for miiiiiiiiiiles
Them mirroring the announcement video and miles wearing what Eugene did is CRAZY and I had to double take on it
Keith's angry face sent me
I just paused and went STRAIGHT to the comments 😂😂😂😂😂😂
i had to pause to process and then scream laugh 🤣🤣🤣
“So we couldn’t get Eugene?” I’m DEAD 😂😂😂
Kinda reminds me of when they were talking to Josh at Mythical Kitchen and he said they tried to get Eugene. 😂😂
I was mid-sip. RIP keyboard! 💀😂💀😂😂💀
Hahahahaaa!!!😂
Pretty sure I woke the neighbors with the way I cackled 😂
The whole skit was gold but that last jock was a knock out punch.
i actually love how the sponsor/ad was done this time, i love unhinged but informative advertising. it reminds me of the best commercials from my childhood
13:02 “Keith Zackerson” 😂
Also, that cut to them sitting on “the couch” was nothing short of fantastic
The highlights for me was:
- Miles (we love you boo!)
- The callback to... THAT video
- The Von guy's pure agony over making this monster of a cake
- The Ralph's cake
i know people say it a lot but i straight up cackled when i saw that. fucking brilliant malicious compliance
And the fact that keith is always eating
I’m a graphic designer, sometimes I browse photo stocks for inspiration and I INSTANTLY recognized this image of a snowboarder, it’s THE most popular vector image if you type something like “winter mountains snowboard” 😂
i actually cried from laughing at the ralph's cake. whoever did that deserves a promotion. what an icon
I came here to see if anyone commented this because I literally cried too LMAO
I saw when he typed the message, he typed it in the section where they ask for the message that should be on the cake 😂

14:19 Wait, did…did they…did they ACTUALLY, intentionally, recreate the infamous “what happened” video thumbnail?? In a sexy Shrek cake video??? Unbelievable. Slow clap for the team. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I just wish it was the thumbnail, with a sexy generic ogre in the background and all the store logos ❤
5:17 “& I don’t even work here so i can kiss Zach as much as I want” 😂😂😂 omg
I caught that too lol 😂
yet, not one smooch
I thought it was going to be one of the cake employees but Miles makes so much more sense😅😅
perfect quite
The way my jaw DROPPED when Rachel had the audacity to say she’s never seen Shrek. I was Miles “where’s the closest movie theater to here!?”
Really XD the movie theater close to my town does a shrek movie like once a month for free
me too oh my goodness
that cake that writes the entire instruction on it has to be one of the funniest thing ever. i've always wondered if that ever happened when i write mine. pls make MORE of these series 😂😂
that Von's employee has worked there for over 10 years, guarantee, that was the way a man whose job is never gonna be at risk answers the phone
I was so hyped for the cake after the conversation and the display cakes 🤣🤣 the reveal was just.... oh no
hes just so over it soon as he said drawing XD maybe he watches these and had an incling?
That is the voice of a man who knows what happens when he answers the phone. I WANT A BIG BOY SHREK CAKE WITH A BIG BUTT. Case in point.
He did NOT hide his distain for drawing 😂😂😂
i'm OBSESSED with this video. OBSESSED.
the intro? the editing? the KEITH addition? the chaotic request itself? all the bakers/decorators who *barely* came through with the request? EVEN THE FREAKING AD? OBSESSEDDDDD
Same! Greatest can-did com-pe-tit ever ❤
11:38 *Get out of my swamp…Señor?* KILLED ME 😂
They should have called Jonny and got him to make a cake without telling him it was for this.
YES
Jonny would have came thru for sure! That Shrek would have had the juiciest butt in all the land (a sentence I never thought I would be typing)
I was thinking the same thing!
I think Jonny knows them well enough to probably guess this is what they’re doing 😂 also he’d be at risk for copyright and it would be very obvious who the decorator was. They’d have to tell him so he could access the risk
that guy on the phone from ralphs was STRESSIN lmao
Zach working out his feelings about being a youtuber creatively by making this show is srsly the best thing ever.
I can’t stop thinking about the bakery worker that wrote all of those words on that cake 😂
I knooow. Is it a joke or condition that brought this on?
The real comedy star, the new 4th Try Person
Yeah bc they don’t want to get sued for profiting off of shrek’s likeness
"and Eugene's clothes fit me like a glove" onwards had me wheezing
The gasp I gusped when they cut to the cake review set
I am a cake decorator at a grocery store and you guys are my worst nightmare . I know exactly what all this employees were thinking while you were talking to them 😂😂😂😂😂
And by the way on line ordering a cake is the worst idea
For the grocery store bakery, are there rules for how much time you're allowed to spend on an individual cake? And amounts of frosting/colors? Ive always been interested in cake decorating work but my piping is not consistent

Never before in the history of Try Guys or Candid Competition has there ever been a better, more perfect opening skit than this one right here.
came to say the same thing! i was dying laughing

Missed opportunity for sure
Wearing the same outfits on the couch. Having a bit where they reference Watcher. It's more unhinged and silly and fun and I love the direction they're taking this
I knew when the lady said "Do you want to see it?" she thought it was bad. I didn't know that she was trying to warn them there's no Shrek

5:55 I can't believe Rachel's first proper encounter with Shrek is Rule 34 Shrekussy 😭
As a former grocery store cake decorator, this was definitely a lot to ask for, especially with the copyright issues, but I totally would’ve tried to make the best skateboarding ogre I could’ve 😂
Same! I definitely made some weird cakes back in the day 😂
I once made huge 1/2 sheet, white and pink cake that said "MILF" for mother's day. it was spectacular and my store manager got sooo mad that we allowed it to be sold.
Totally! I worked at store bakery. The cake decorator was a heavy smoker who tried her best but was definitely not trained to do it. She just got stuck with it.
This was a total and complete gem! Soooooo many great quotable moments, Miles making a comeback, Keith coming in with his no-fucks-given attitude and the whole network change of direction segment, the Keith voice over for the ad, the dreaded couch video reference, the complete lack of reaction from the employees as you're describing the cake you want and everyone fighting laughter in the background, then being trolled by the "Hi..." cake with only writing on it. Love it! One of the best vids of yours I've seen in a while. Great start to the comeback of Candid Competition!
"i don't even work here, so i can kiss zach as much as i want"
Miles you are a FATHER
Daddies can kiss people :p
@@kikibirdball *looks at n3d * I don't know if that's true
Can we PLEASE have a Johnny Cakes rendition of this cake? 🙏
Yes omg yes!!!
the instant groaning from the Vons employee was hilarious and so surprising.
The ENTIRE VIDEO feels like a fever dream and we could tell that's Zach's content.
i love almost every single try guys video but NOTHING comes close to how much i laugh when zach directs. every single time i find myself gasping for air and about to burst a blood vessel from laughing so hard. please let zach direct more often oml 😭😭
so true
Rachel’s “I did no such thing” around 5:10 is AMAZING god I love her. this channel owes her so much
@5:45 keith just 'subtly' holding the hot sauce in the shot lmaoooo
I thought at first they were using the picture of Keith as a reference lmaooooooo
Keith and Miles just dying as Zach was making the cake orders was the funniest thing ever 😂
Im fucking CRYING laughing at the phone call with Vons, phenomenal 🤌🤌🤌
“The Office” vibes this episode gives off has me howling 😭😭😭 love this
Rachel's face when she saw Keith is working on the episode too haha 😂 Shrek is evergreen
I always skip through the sponsor reads in videos but this one I actually enjoyed??? the chaos of this vid is top tier omggggg
Keith’s mouth over Zac’s for the advertisements is killllllling me 😂😂
It didnt line up at ALL he was just whispering in his mouth wattpad style XD
and zach staying so still for so long in so many takeS GENIUS
It’s so cursed 😂
@@dancersinger55555So cursed it's impossible not to love~ 😂😂😂
The cartoon of the employee during that phone call was absolutely PERFECT!!! 😂😂😂😂
I'm having a hard time coping with how you all managed to reel it in with the form, while also making it more unhinged than it ever was. The adroll made me laugh but also cry from sheer emotion at how stupidly on brand for the whole production, like, not crying from laughter, but laughing and also moved by how much fun I was having. I also have the biggest soft spot for Zach's creativity with the scripted parts. I'm thrilled this is back, I hope y'all get a ton of views and engagement so we get more.
I didn’t skip the scentbird advertisement because of how amusing it was. Nicely done
Same 😂
I couldn't look away, but I found it so disturbing lol.
I skipped it because it make me so uncomfortable lol
I loved how unhinged it was XDDDDDDD
It’s doesn’t exist in the uk and I couldn’t look away 😂
When you were on the call with Vons I heard the miscommunication as it was happening. I knew they were going to print the pic he sent 😂😂😂
Lol. Same. I was like thinkin to myself "guys, he's asking for a photo he can put on the cake." 😂
Yeah he knew he couldn’t do what they wanted bc they’d get sued and he’d get in trouble, but he was like if you draw exactly that we can put it on a cake
Ralph’s just writing EXACTLY what Zack put on the cake is giving the same energy as every sign/banner in BoJack Horseman 😂😂😂
Miles’ secondhand embarrassment while Zach is on the phone is so palpable hahaha.
I could hardly make it through those phone calls. I thought I was going to drop dead from cringing so hard. 😂
Shrek is love Shrek is life
Your pfp being sonic really brings this home 🤌🏼
Never let it die 🙌
Legit the first thing I thought of 😂
+
I can’t escape this video omg
That was the hardest i have laughed at a try guys video i think ever in all of my 6 years watching their content. I normally dont watch the candid competitions because watching anything scripted makes me wanna die from cringe and i know thats a big part of candid so i normally avoid it like the plauge. But i decided to watch this one to support zach bc he talks a lot about how much this series means to him on the podcast. And im so glad i did this was hysterical i will probably watch it over and over again. The editors did fantastic and rachel's scenes were amazing.
Nobody:
Miles: i don't even work here anymore, so i can kiss Zach as much as i want 👍🏿
HR: Dxmn, he's got a point
the dude slowly saying get out of my swamp big boy as he is writing it down killed me
The comedic timing of the opening skit was on point! Zach is soo naturally funny and underrated
The "get out of my swamp señor" got me for some reason
YESSSSS! I had my baby sleeping on me and I was laughing so hard
I love everything about Candid Competition. The concept, the team, the approach, the respect to not get people fired, the cinematic pieces at the start and end. It's all so Zach.
The humour that takes place in the Candid Competition Universe is the best of all the Try Guys content. This series underrated!
the phone call absolutely sent me lmaoo 8:30 get…. out… of my… swamppp… big boy
*"not now babe, candid competition is back on"* this video had me crying laughing the whole time😂😂😂
”What if we get a cease and desist from this video?”
”We can’t because no one’s shown Shrek.”
This killed me.
That’s why they didn’t do it. They could get sued. They don’t have the rights to put shrek on a cake and sell it
