What makes WKUK skits so timeless is that, unlike many sketch shows, they don't just have a single concept and run it until it is boring. They always have big kicker or twist at the end that leaves it feeling both fresh and hilarious. The "salad tasting" skit is the perfect example.
That's why they ran out of ideas and ended the show. I believe they said that after the 4th or 5th season they just thought they've done all they wanted to do and didn't want to drag it out or revisit ideas.
@@arthurchen6464 Well they did Civil War on Drugs which was unofficially the 6th season, but IFC apparently wasn't 100% behind them doing long-form stuff and didn't renew their contract. I recall them saying they weren't upset by it because they pretty much had no plans to continue writing sketches anyway.
@@zanguusu basically. its not a pitbulls fault that people breed them generally as guard or attack dogs. just like its not german shepherd's fault they are most often chosen for police work... you cant just say its in a pitbulls nature to attack and kill pople because of its breed just like you cant say the same thing about black people in america. its society and communities fault that things are the way they are for them.
It's completely legal to sell dog or cat meat in any of the 44 states that haven't prohibited it. They've been trying to pass federal legislation against it for years (and there's currently a bill from March that's been awaiting action from the House Agriculture Committee), but nothing's yet been done. The states that prohibit any dog or cat meat are Michigan, Virginia, California, Hawaii, New York, and Georgia. Quite an eclectic group of states, and I'm sure they all have Chinese restaurants and NY, Hawaii, and California have a particularly large amount of Chinese immigrants. I just think it's usually such a rare taboo, that it's not something that's even on the radar for most of the other states or even the federal government.
I honestly don't see why it shouldn't be be other than to protect pets from being stolen like they are in Asia. Just because we've domesticated them doesn't make it morally any different to eat them than other animals, it just feels a bit weird.
Have any of you actually had dog? I went to a Chinese buffet in a pretty rural town that had some meat I've never had before. The skin was crisped red, and the meat was similar looking to duck except more stringy. It was definitely marinated and was actually really good.
From the opening paragraph from it's Wikipedia page: "Ain't is a colloquialism and contraction for "am not", "is not", "are not", "has not", and "have not" in the common English language vernacular. In some dialects ain't is also used as a contraction of "do not", "does not", and "did not". The usage of ain't is a perennial subject of controversy in English. Widely used by many people, and found in most dictionaries[1] its use is often considered to be informal, nonstandard, or improper."
the internet wasn't "invented" anywhere. It more evolved overtime across the globe. It started in many countries as a way to communicate across universities, and has changed into the amazing tool it is today
It might have had its roots in something similar, yes, but CERN is where it was first decided that it should be made available to everyone, not just within the specific organisation.
You can't say WKUK weren't cultured or worldly. What other American sketch show would make a sketch about Haitian cuisine? ...Am I _really_ the first one to come here to make a joke about Haitians?
It's apparent that the US has contributed more to modern living than any other country Consider the following: Airplane (Wright brothers) Gasoline powered Carriage (Selden) Television (Farnsworth) Moon travel (NASA) Laser technology (Hughes Lab) Communications Satellite (US Army) Transistor (Bell Labs) Assembly line (Ford) Practical light bulb (Edison) However, other countries invented the phone(Scottland), computer(Germany), steam engine(England), etc. There's no reason to be too cocky.
When this skit was made I don't think it was illegal to serve kitten meat, it is now. Kind of disturbing that they had to pass a law banning the eating of dog and cat meat.
I did weigh whether I should use the term European or specify English. I went with English because the people who founded the US government were largely of English descent. But it hardly matters, because the Romans had the same impact on France and Germany as well (not sure about Spain...)
It was founded by immigrants from all over. It was a bunch of colonies started by the French, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the Dutch and the Spanish. The UK undermined the others until most of the area was theirs. The reason the founders of the United States chose the Roman republic as a model was because it was pretty much the exact opposite of the monarchy that they were trying to escape. All of the expanding empires pretty much stopped around 1945 or so.
Not that I agree, but to be blunt. Every country is in debt... Not just the USA. More than 50% of the US citizens are not obese. The fact that ONLY 7 million of us are unemployed is actually a good thing when you do ratios to other nations. And of course, we're a dominant nation because we have the most nukes... and we aren't afraid to blow people up... Not that that's a good thing..but it does make us powerful.
But for the size difference it's more likely that cats would eat dogs. Cats are obligate carnivores, while some dogs are regularly fed a partly vegetarian diet.
Funny story, at the time this video was made, I was not illegal to buy or sell cat and dog meat with the intent to sell it. The bill that banned it was only signed into law on Dec 20, 2018.
Your forgot that each and every Australian without exception has a huge mustache (or "moustache," as they spell it). Everything else is spot on, though.
@ThatRandomGuy666 lol no, i meant Timmy was in the back the whole time. how did he figure out the guy was a health inspector without having to talk to him?^^

My favorite ending is when Timmy just goes “FUCK THIS SKETCH!” And walks out
@@LEGOALEX97 Yes, the cowboy story sketch, right? Such a classic haha.
When I heard that Trevor died, I immediately thought of this scene. Thanks for being there in my time of need. RIP see you on the other side.
I still can’t believe he’s dead
@@shietcard9649 me either, I cried watching WKUK the other day. Just insane that an amazing comedian was taken from us.
I just learned of his death right now and I'm in shock. These guy and his work has made me have some of the best laughs of my life 🙌🏼
Years later I still can't believe he is really gone. What a blow
It was never just the first, obvious joke. That’s why I love these guys.
A good case of subverting our expectations.
Kitten McNugget
Now that's just a name
I wanna go to McDonalds and ask for a Kitten McNugget.
perfect form
Only in China
I can't believe he is gone. RIP Trevor Moore
Can't believe this comment is 3 years old 😢
@@marioemblem I still can't believe he is dead. Very shocking death.
This is what happens to the house cats that they hunt.
Salad*
"Cat hunting or "cunting" as we call it."
Joe Ippolito I see what you did there
Biggest Anime Reveal
Like those hunters who go to mc donalds after hunting because they never get anything.
1:39 Timmy's voice there gets me every time. I know it's not much, but it's the little stuff X,,D
Not as good as his voice in the dog poop restaurant skit
I love Trevor's character in this.
Richard Simtherson?
I love Trevor's character in pretty much every sketch lol
I love how nearly every character he plays is insane and has no idea he is, even when people call him out.
:((
"Why are you harassing us?" lol!
I never noticed that it's just the same four dogs superimposed over and over again.
idk the colour of the ears on the putbull to the left forefront are different than the one in the middle
@@twilightsparkle75
those are bulldogs, not shtbuIIs
@@FixedFace why do you dislike pitbulls?
@@zanguusu is that the fault of the breed or the fault of pieces of trash who poorly raise and abuse their animals....

I swear there was a version of this where when the cook and Trevor made a break for it, you could see several cats escaping from the kitchen.
Sorry I mean several chicken.
Dead.juice wink from an italian man*
+Dead.juice yeah I've seen it lmao
I mean you can see trevor and timmy run off and hear cats
It's the Mandela Effect
One of the only show theme songs I don't skip over
What I love in the intro is that.
Timmy is the one doing sports.
"And I think it's locked anyway"
Italian guy comes out, goes back in and locks
"See? He just locked"
Why did that get me? 😂😂😂
That chef looks just like my doctor...
David Lawson uh oh! Spaghetti O.
Don't let him give you a blood transfusion, trust me.
This is gonna be Trumps new health inspector on day 1.
Anyone else realize, Trevors character in this is supposed to mimic the server in ferris buelers day off?
When its all dogs eating there... Dude im dying laughing. Wkuk are the goats
lol a kitten mcnugget
Oasis Flame 😂😂
this is like any restaurant in Peru
The facial reaction in that closeup at the end was seriously on point
I wasn't expecting that ending hahaha
We will always love you Trevor ❤
Rip Trevor
I dont know why I keep coming back to this sketch, but I do.
This is one of those WKUK skits where you forget the punchline, and get got every time.
RIP Trevor Moore, he made us laugh very well
dogs and cats are legal to eat in 44 states.
Brian M yet there are Chinese restaurants in all those States.

I'm ok with eating cats and dogs
Have any of you actually had dog? I went to a Chinese buffet in a pretty rural town that had some meat I've never had before. The skin was crisped red, and the meat was similar looking to duck except more stringy. It was definitely marinated and was actually really good.
finally the full intro
I miss them so much
Liar
Xion Dominagus I tell you the truth
this is one of the funniest sketches. my personal favorite
RIP Trevor Moore
trevor is my favorite guy on the show
10/10 whoever did props for this sketch
R.I.P. Trevor.
I approve of this.
Bring this amazing show back pleaae

Rip in peace Trevor
Ripping his vape, making new clouds in Heaven.
I had to watch this while eating my plate full of fried ki-- I mean chicken!
I'm so gonna start a restaurant called " It's not kittens It's chicken ;) "
Ok that bit at the end was great
Yeah like a truly anarchic world. It's different but it seems to take place in the same world as the SNL census taker skit
R.I.P Trevor
Rip Trevor.
Chicken of the rail yard
I think my favorite part of this is how friendly Sam is.
the internet wasn't "invented" anywhere. It more evolved overtime across the globe. It started in many countries as a way to communicate across universities, and has changed into the amazing tool it is today
The highway sign thing is the best part.
I think that was the third time I have seen Timmy dressed as Chef Boyardee
New location opening in Springfield, OH
"Dude...come on."
"NOOOO!!"
😂🤣
lol the pun at the end. didnt expect that from wkuk
When his mouth fuckin opens at 2:35 I’m dead
It might have had its roots in something similar, yes, but CERN is where it was first decided that it should be made available to everyone, not just within the specific organisation.
alf would love this restaurant
RIP Trevor 😭
And here I am, thinking it's a dog eat dog world out there
Kids these days will never understand that before memes we just quoted wkuk all day
1:23 But why is it acceptable to cook chickens but not kittens?
You can't say WKUK weren't cultured or worldly. What other American sketch show would make a sketch about Haitian cuisine?
...Am I _really_ the first one to come here to make a joke about Haitians?
I saw a video of a meat market in Indonesia where they had dogs and cats.
You just knew Timmy would be last in the intro lol. They all looked down on him
According to Trevor, Timmy was their muse.
It's apparent that the US has contributed more to modern living than any other country
Consider the following:
Airplane (Wright brothers)
Gasoline powered Carriage (Selden)
Television (Farnsworth)
Moon travel (NASA)
Laser technology (Hughes Lab)
Communications Satellite (US Army)
Transistor (Bell Labs)
Assembly line (Ford)
Practical light bulb (Edison)
However, other countries invented the phone(Scottland), computer(Germany), steam engine(England), etc.
There's no reason to be too cocky.
AWWW that's a cute paper kitty
This was adorable
When this skit was made I don't think it was illegal to serve kitten meat, it is now. Kind of disturbing that they had to pass a law banning the eating of dog and cat meat.
*see, he just locked it*
Rip sir
Timmy killed it
I don't even know why I think this is so bloody Hilarious haha xD
@Mosixman perhaps its because they had already recieved news of thier cancellation.
All we have to do is find a way to take out there rice! That's like all they eat :))
Lmao i love Timmys performance in this

This remindes me a little of the Old Monty Python sketch where they served human.
WHAT A TWIST
OK that was pretty good.
Why am I only finding out about WKUK now
Thank you Stevedudeman :)
Why would you need a billboard if your only customers are dogs?
They like to hang their head out the window. Billboards are the best advertising for dogs.
Nail guuuuun
Not that I agree, but to be blunt. Every country is in debt... Not just the USA. More than 50% of the US citizens are not obese.

true dat. respect
"The Highway Department."
haitian restaurant in springfield ohio be like:
Only reason it's illegal to serve or sell car meat is because the USDA won't inspect it. Same goes for horse and dog.
Pretty bloody close mate.
But for the size difference it's more likely that cats would eat dogs. Cats are obligate carnivores, while some dogs are regularly fed a partly vegetarian diet.
My god, now That’s how to fucking finish
I HAVE A SPICY HOT PLATE OF KITTE...I MEAN CHICKEN!!!!
He does actually need a warrant, by a 1978 supreme court decision.
Well, the plot kitten

2:35 that face
Theme hits different nowadays
Why does Trevor look like Tim Curry? >.>
The real joke is that cat meat wasn't even illegal in the US until 2018.
i like how its animals from the pet heaven sketch
