And he is playing Rust too. As if he already isn't pissed off enough and restarting AGAIN for the third time in a wipe after being raided by some russian hackers.
Like others have said, the Renaissance men conversation is actually based on an unscripted brainstorming session between the actual Zach Hadel and Michael Cusack because they didn't know how to end the frowning friends episode.
I can honestly imagine how that conversation went “Uh we need to end the episode, right uh what if some fuckin renaissance men show up and kill grim and gnarly” “Wha- Who- Why are there Renaissance men? Where’d they come from “I dunno man maybe they were in town or something and just shoot them with arrows and ride off on horses” “That doesn’t sound like renaissance, that’s not even like the right era” “Listen do you have any better ideas??”
@@Matmania69420 Mr. Boss didn't even intend for Filia/Brittney to die so he could own ¼th of hell, he legitimately found the daughter of Satan, who's probably just an acquaintance to him, to be marriage material. And Satan isn't even that miffed at the Boss after his daughter had died and they're arguing over zoning, he's just being his usual passive-aggressive self.
I'm 90% sure that when they call Mr Boss in the Brazil episode, they actually called the voice actor in character without letting him know beforehand. His initial confusion and then struggling to think up a solution to the hotel issue is so realistic I don't think it was acting.
@@thevotemanfunniest part of the commentary is when they say they initially wanted him to be ordering something from a convenience store while talking on the phone but he didn’t want to do that

3:43 I love how Pim states that those aren’t even actual Renaissance Men. I’m not the most well versed person when it pertains to this but they looked more like Templars.
@@eddiemoran8044That’s not correct, the templars disbanded in the early 14th century and the Renaissance is 15th to 16th century. IIRC on the season 1 commentary they state it’s intentionally incorrect
I'm 100% convinced that the show writers go to random bars, restaurants, and public areas, and hook people up with microphones and just tell them to go about their day like normal
fun fact: the conversation on 3:30 is actually a conversation the writers had after days of not knowing how to end the episode, they just tweaked the conversation a bit and put it in the show
3:20 this is one of my favourite scenes from smiling friends. Mr boss speaking like a normal person after bending his finger in an inhuman way and dealing with the consequences is so random and so funny I love it so much
The entirety of Smiling friends goes to Brazil feels like the cast went on vacation and someone brought a recorder making the whole episode off script.
one of the best scenes in season one imo is when pim’s sister’s boyfriend throws up and says so earnestly “i’m sorry i ruined it” about the dinner that was already going horrible
Most relatable shit is when Charlie hungover and says “I can’t keep doing this to myself brother, something gotta change.” Fuck I said those exact same words when I decided to quit drinking 😂😂
So Adult Swims show have a bit of a technique they employ to make these scenes and it's used by literally every Adult Swim show since it became a progamming block. This technique is called "Retroscripting". The short of it is that instead of writing out the dialogue, the script will just have sections where it says "Talk about whatever here" and the V.A's just talk about whatever. For some teams, it meant just recording the V.A's out on a lunch break or shooting the breeze inside the studio. It was initally utilized by Home Movies extensively to make its dialogue work and it's been picked up by nearly every Adult Swim show you can imagine. Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Space Ghost: Coast To Coast, Sealabs, The Venture Bros, Rick and Morty and most recently Smiling Friends. It's a time-honored writing trick at Adult Swim and if you look into the behind the scenes of these shows, you'll find every single one has utilized this technique to some extent (Rick and Morty's drinking sessions in the studio, The Venture Bro's team recording lunch time conversations of the V.A's). It sounds unscripted because it is intentionally unscripted improv in the middle of a script.
This reminds me of how Family Guy wants to have these moments of "relatable conversations", but all they do is just recite what's on the script, sometimes make it longer than it is. Whereas in "Smiling Friends", these moments feel natural and are quick moments that show how spontaneous some moments can be.
Funny thing is thay Pim was telling a story. The only reason that Charlie would ask that question, was probably because Pim explicitely told him he kissed his dad on the mouth.
I love how, although being the most chaotic beings to exist, they are extremely comprehensive and chill about a lot of what goes on and that makes it totally dynamic and awesome
this is why i love this show so much. its like they had a script ready, read the script, and it awkwardly cut off so they had to improvise the rest of the scene
2:45 I literally never heard Michael’s voice in Alan until this clip right here, it sounds like he’s just talking to himself (which he but but yk what I mean)
Unscripted shit is the best, they should do an episode where they just have plot points they need to go through and have the actors improv all the stuff in between. Could be fun.
I love how they talk over each other, it’s really realistic. Don’t get me wrong, I love every show I’ve watched but I always wondered how they never talked over each other cause it happens in real life ALL the time. I know we don’t come to tv shows FOR them to be realistic to a T(especially in anime/cartoons) but it’s a very nice touch when they are
My favorite part of the renaissance men bit is that in real time I said "They look more like medieval men" and then Pim said they don't look like renaissance men
Mr Boss looked so offended by Alan not liking his gift.
His mouth going agape is pretty hilarious
Proud of Alan for being honest with him. A bit blunt, but honest.
I mean Alan could’ve just kept it and then handed it to Charlie when Mr. Boss isn’t tgere
@@castbet9183 Mr.Boss would find out at some point though and it might hurt him more. Being honest isn't easy.
And charlie was genuinely happy to recieve it XD

That episode fucking blew my mind.
@@definitelynotgoreit was that crazy?
@@bigjawline9235 Yes bro, it’s 10m of a hyper realistic conversation between 2-4 individuals at times that sounds entirely unscripted.

@@msthecommentator2863Why would you have to use a glass? Just remove the lid and use the cup it’s already in.
@@msthecommentator2863or you could just....drink out of the cup that it's already in?
@@NateS917 sure, if I want a crappy paper cup rim dissolving into my drink as I sip.
One realistic thing I really like about the animation is they don't always automatically close their mouth after talking, just like people do irl.
I didn’t even realize that but now that you mention it that’s an amazing attention to detail
Do you… keep your mouth open?..

Like others have said, the Renaissance men conversation is actually based on an unscripted brainstorming session between the actual Zach Hadel and Michael Cusack because they didn't know how to end the frowning friends episode.
It’s also why they sound so low-energy, bc they recorded both parts of the bit at like 3am lol
@zachflag6506 the low energy does make it funnier
"Who are the Renaissance men??? Because that's not Renaissance" gets me everytime
I love how Pim gets frustrated at the end, we hardly ever see him pissed
I can honestly imagine how that conversation went “Uh we need to end the episode, right uh what if some fuckin renaissance men show up and kill grim and gnarly” “Wha- Who- Why are there Renaissance men?

0:43 Mr. Boss forgiving Pim for saying “okay” is so funny, it’s like he was actually slightly insulted by it
Allan not pom
I think it’s cuz the boss might have heard “that’s gay” instead of okay
I think I've said that before but only to be reassuring.
@@unib4324no that’s pim
@@Astrojox_my bad misread
Its my headcannon that Mr. Boss and Satan play rust together.
What makes this headcanon funnier to me is the fact Mr Boss married Satan's daughter lmfao
@@Matmania69420 Mr. Boss didn't even intend for Filia/Brittney to die so he could own ¼th of hell, he legitimately found the daughter of Satan, who's probably just an acquaintance to him, to be marriage material.

Marc M's tone there just reminds me of his usual content tbh. But it would be really cool if true
90% sure is crazy that’s very unlikely but would be awesome if true
I think the behind the scenes story is that they told him to go outside for a walk and record his dialogue into his phone as a voice memo
@@Masiyooo this is true, it's in the season 1 commentary
@@thevotemanfunniest part of the commentary is when they say they initially wanted him to be ordering something from a convenience store while talking on the phone but he didn’t want to do that
I have a small theory that the reason Glep voted for Mr. Frog, was because he saved him from the producer of the Mr. Frog show.
Good point
That is a good point
On the other hand, Glep could just like Mr. Frog’s policies on eating bugs.
Another one Mr frog would be the first green president

@agarion101 its a good episode but people act like it's the greatest thing ever made and it's annoying.
zach loves to interrupt himself talking
3:43 I love how Pim states that those aren’t even actual Renaissance Men.
I’m not the most well versed person when it pertains to this but they looked more like Templars.
I love how angry he is about it too
The templars took place within the period of the renaissance. So calling them renaissance men is just being much more general
@@eddiemoran8044That’s not correct, the templars disbanded in the early 14th century and the Renaissance is 15th to 16th century.
IIRC on the season 1 commentary they state it’s intentionally incorrect
I love the ambiguity that they might not even be the Renascence Men that were mentioned
Origins
Wacky characters doing regular things people always do is incredibly hilarious
Like spongebob where goofy ass Patrick has an ID with his address on it with an expiration date 💀 Or Mordecai from regular show going to art school
I'm 100% convinced that the show writers go to random bars, restaurants, and public areas, and hook people up with microphones and just tell them to go about their day like normal
That’s Home Movies lol
What makes these moments better than Family Guy’s is that 1) They don’t sound nearly as forced, and 2) They don’t overstay their welcome.
If we compare the most similar examples like the Godfather and Renaissance Man bits it's night and day the contrast
I actually think it’s the opposite. Family Guy, especially in the earlier seasons, seemed natural. This seems kinda forced to me
No its the opposite, this is clearly forced. Dont compare shows, both are different and both really good.
@@MysticSmArts Totally agree on a lot of these moments.
I fail to see what family guy has to do with smiling friends.
fun fact: the conversation on 3:30 is actually a conversation the writers had after days of not knowing how to end the episode, they just tweaked the conversation a bit and put it in the show
I can hear Boss’s VA break character and the slight change in room reverb when he says that
It’s so funny when Mr. Boss goes from his super high pitch voice silly voice to a casual relaxed voice
3:20 this is one of my favourite scenes from smiling friends. Mr boss speaking like a normal person after bending his finger in an inhuman way and dealing with the consequences is so random and so funny I love it so much
2:43 is even funnier knowing that Michael voices both those characters
Michael Cusack voices Alan?!?
@@SupremacySinema yep!
@@SupremacySinema which is why Mike will sometimes slip up and make Alan sound Australian for a word or two
3:14
Y'know, the forest demon could've completely flipped the tables if he simply said
"Dude, this is my natural skin color..."
0:51 the bit here was actually recorded around 2 AM which is why Pim and Charlie sound so tired haha
The entirety of Smiling friends goes to Brazil feels like the cast went on vacation and someone brought a recorder making the whole episode off script.
It's so realistic it stresses me out
2:22 poor guy looks so disappointed
The bit when Shrimpina/Jennifer finally meets Shrimp and instantly loses her accent should be included here 🦐
Same with the "Mip is my stalker" bit. Just a flat cut happening is pretty funny.
I think you can just call her Jennifer. It's her name

Pim must have invited them
I see Duncan, but where's Filmore?

Made me so happy when Pim pointed out that those clearly weren’t Renaissance men but instead were 12th century era crusaders.

It feels so wrong hearing the f word uncensored. I honestly think the beeps make the swears funnier

2:52 I genuinely like this one. It a so Silly.
1:31 First time im realizing there’s a fuckin kid crawling in the background walls, put the most random shit in the background 😂
I love this style of dialogue, it feels so natural imo and makes it funnier
I love how, although being the most chaotic beings to exist, they are extremely comprehensive and chill about a lot of what goes on and that makes it totally dynamic and awesome
Mr. Boss gives off that vibe like he's secretly evil; other than the few times he was prepared to kill someone, he's not all too bad.
The best thing about the show is that the dialogue is so naturally delivered it feels like theres no script.
These awkward, mundane moments are what makes this show so funny 🤣
2:58 lmao rust on the pc + looks like my room and i say the same shit when my straws forgotten cus its not a big deal
this is why i love this show so much. its like they had a script ready, read the script, and it awkwardly cut off so they had to improvise the rest of the scene

1:02 this was actually unscripted
It's scripted but based off a real conversation they had
This is what makes smiling friends my fav show
Mr. Boss can be so creepy but at the same time so normal like when Allen gives away his gift right in front of him 😂
R.I.P mr boss doing paper clip bit😭
i love the long pause with the princess
I need need NEED more of realistic dialogue/unscripted chatter compilations across all cartoons.
Reminds me of the old Pixar bloopers
“You kiss your dad on the mouth? 🤨”
the renaissance men conversation was a real conversation funfact, so technically was unscripted
Unscripted shit is the best, they should do an episode where they just have plot points they need to go through and have the actors improv all the stuff in between. Could be fun.
the smiling friends did WHAT unscripted for 4 minutes ??
3:59 glep is so cute
I love the show because of moments like these. It feels so natural. I hope they keep doing it if we get future seasons
I enjoy the way Alan counts things
Thank you for showing me this cartoons. It’s been a while since I laughed so hard at this kind of media.
The entire Brazil episode should have been here
I love how Mr. Boss has to look up at Allan even though he’s significantly taller than him.
When Alan said he didn't want Mr boss's gift, pim was like "me personally I wouldn't take that disrespect"
I love how they talk over each other, it’s really realistic.

I've never watched Smililing Friends
I have no idea wtf i just watched but i loved it, so I'm giving the series a chance
1:30 i understand him
Alan in the background was the best part.
Holy shit, the Tech Deck brought me BACK
You could've put the entire Brazil episode.
"You chose the worst time to go"
I love this show
My favorite part of the renaissance men bit is that in real time I said "They look more like medieval men" and then Pim said they don't look like renaissance men
The phone call when the boys are in Brazil never ceases to amaze me
These kind of scenes are like the cherry on the top when it comes to the humor in this show
I just love this kind of comedy. It so good
I love how any episode can just end immediately after one of these conversations 😅
Pim and Alan talking over each other and then insisting on letting each other talk is really just an everyday situation XD
"They Don't look like renaissance... men." that little pause kills me.
I love how Glep says skibidi
just the sudden moments of casual conversation is what gets me.
I love it when shows just do this, makes it more relatable.
