Hitler sounds like Fred Flintstone 😂
EEEEVVVVAAAAAAAAAA
It's a shame this was cancelled after only one episode, as I was looking forward to seeing Reinhard Heydrich in subsequent ones. No I wasn't really, but the character of Heydrich apparently did feature in the un-televised episodes. What on earth were they thinking?
I can't believe Patrick Cargill played Chamberlain. He was a well respected actor he wrote the most commercially successfull Carry on film of all time as well as appearing in countless films and tv shows including the sitcom Father dear Father. Sad to think this was probably his last role.
If you want to watch a show that mocks Hitler & the Nazis, but also happens to be funny,well written & with a great cast Allo Allo is the show!!
Had to laugh at the mistaken plaque unveiling they did recently, obviously she didn’t realise she could do it only once.
Can you believe the Exec Producer was Paul Jackson? He was involved in and responsible for some great TV, including TOTP, Steptoe and Son, Blankety Blank, The Two Ronnies, Three of a Kind and The Young Ones. In '96 he became Head of BBC Entertainment and then Controller of BBC Entertainment, bringing shows such as The Royle Family, Marion and Geoff and The Office. He was even the one to bring Ant & Dec to prime time TV. So this is surely one for his CV! (resume) Haha
You can see why BSB trusted him... and then he came up with this.
I noted that too - Paul Jackson is a legend. Producer on Red Dwarf too.
Ah yes, the shortest lived TV show ever. Pulled from the air before the first episode finished. I'll have to watch this later.
When I first heard of it, I was like "It sounds like a spoof title within a TV show" but more went toward that rabbit hole, truly existed
I have no problem with the bad taste element. My gripe is that it is relentlessly unfunny.
Im wondering if it got cancled because of the controversy, or just because it was that bad.
@Elliott Bronstein I know it's intentional satire. And it's still miserably unfunny.
Those unaired tapes are probably hidden in the same place as those unsold Atari ET videogames.
It is deffo a parody of an American sit-com. But I cannot believe that it was created as a 'serious' comedy show.
The "Hoochie coochie coochie smoochie smoochie smoochie" bit is pretty funny. Apart from that, this concept had great potential which they failed to live up to in this episode. Maybe it would have gotten better like so many shows do. Then again, maybe it would just have been more of the same. Great minds would like to know, but I doubt we'll ever unearth more of it.
The look on your face watching this is priceless.
Eva calling Hitler 'Schicklgruber' is a reference to Hitler's father, Alois. He was was born Alois Schicklgruber, but then changed his name to Hitler, the family name of his stepfather.
Imagine writing a sit com and the first line is "Hitler enters-applause"
That was a BRITISH actor playing a GERMAN doing a NEW YORK accent and that s not even the weird part .
when is episode 2 on
It was cancelled after one episode. I can't imagine why ;)
@Elliott Bronstein We will never see the other episodes in the daylight!
ftumschk well the other episodes were produced but never say the light of day
Hitler was Austrian not German.
I think Neil McCaul might be Irish.
This might of worked as a series of short sketches within a 'parent' show (something like Harry Enfield).
If anything it needed to be more over-the-top, with more canned laughter, to make it more obviously a parody of the Nazis, American sitcoms, etc.
Someone like Kenny Everett might just have pulled it off!
some of those mannerisms are very Harry Enfield
'I'm a very, very bad Hitler' might be the single worst joke I have ever heard in my life.
This always reminds me of Monty Python's 'The Atilla the Hun Show' sketch. It's certainly an odd one.
Patrick Cargill playing Chamberlain, Patrick was a well respected film television and Theatre actor why the hell he accepted a role in this tripe I will never know.
Alba Productions He was perfectly dying while making it
This is a pitch meeting I would have loved to see!
It's a pitch meeting whose drugs I would have loved to take.
Oh pitch meetings are tight!
@@matte4562 And making one for this show would be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
@@TomMerson yeah yeah yeah!
I often thought this show was a myth .
Oh I wish it was.
About 13 minutes in when they first started Nazi saluting, your face was a picture. I’m whatever the opposite of woke is, as in I can enjoy a bad taste or awkward joke without feeling the urge to form an angry mob with pitchforks and torches, but omg how did this get _any_ episodes made, it’s just, gobsmacking.
They made blackadder and dads army, two of the greatest comedies ever made and they were quite conterservail
Dad's Army preceded this in the TV Guide apparently. I wonder what anyone involved in that would have thought.
the one playing eva braun is a well known anime voice over and has done thongs like gall force, rg veda and a wind named amnesia
On phone: "No BOB Hitler who do ya think?" LOL I guffawed.
by the way for those interested in finding out about the BSB satellite thing, I reccomend this guy who made a whole 7 episode documentary on the subject, he touches on some of galaxy's programming in episode 5
th-cam.com/play/PLv0JqzAtFNwNXgWxdV2tANebLtk3vrRrk.html
It was pretty bad but I'd still watch more over Mrs Brown's Boys.
the party at the end was the best part
I'm with you there comrade!
It’s way more honeymooners than I love lucy
All I can think of is Fawlty Towers 'don' t mention the war' 😂
This is an amazing copy of the show. The only other one I saw on TH-cam was a lot grainier. But it did include the very beginning of the show that you're missing. Before the opening credits there was a caption card with a fictitious background story, claiming that this was an American sitcom unearthed in Burbank, years after it was made. The card is about 19 seconds in on this link. th-cam.com/video/mf9jJx0NSjw/w-d-xo.html
Patrick Cargill as Neville Chamberlain had his own British sit-com in the 70s - Father Dear Father.
He was also the doctor in Tony Hancock's Blood Donor episode.
@@andrewbowman4611 Indeed he was!
Neville Chamberlain wouldve been 70 in 1939 Ruth is only 21 Gross. Chamberlain died the next year.
Wowser. I couldn't wait for this to end.
Taffe I love you but I’ve been waiting for Gavin & Stacey and the Royle family for ages and you decide to react to this!
Whilst it was deemed a merger it was really a takeover by Sky as BSB was losing oodles of cash (even more than Sky) . BSB was meant to be a monopoly with a government licence to broadcast but as no one owns space Murdoch just leased transponders on another satellite. BSB was technically superior to Sky (DMAC vs PAL) but got beaten to air by about a year due to the technical challenges of having to use (as stipulated by their government licence) the DMAC system and having to launch it's own satellite .
Both were spending fortunes particuarly on movies (of course Murdoch had the advantage of owning 20th Century Fox) but BSB were doomed from the moment Murdoch (who had bet his own empire on Sky) got on air first and used his newspaper empire to prop it up. This is probably the show BSB is known for although their longest lasting influence was their sports channel that became Sky Sports (with lots of the same people) and changed sports broadcasting over here.
The other thing they are known for is their 'squarial' satellite dish (that you still see on the odd building) that was another factor in their technical delays indeed when they did the press launch they just painted a bit of wood as they hadn't worked out how to make them!
I remember BSB being referred to as BSkyB, obviously after a takeover
Sky are also widely believed to have been responsible for funding the people who cracked ITV Digital eliminating their competition in the market for live sports broadcasting in the UK
@@mentaldavethefirst The thing with ITV Digital (nee OnDigital) was Sky were meant to be part of it and thus Sky Sports etc. was going to be wholesaled to them at a discount but the regulators told them they couldn't and therefore Murdoch sought to crush them by offering free Sky boxes and charging ON/ITV Digital full market rate for his channels.
If you believe on fate/bad omens both BSB and On/ITV DIgital were based in the same building (Marco Polo house).
@@MrVidification Yeah that was the notional nod to the merger (it wasn't until 2014 that they became just Sky), but that was about it as everything got absorbed into Sky and they stopped simulcasting on BSB's Marco Polo satellite at the end of 1992 and sold it off.
The 'Schicklgruber' thing is Adolf's father's surname at birth, since his mother wasn't married.
Reaction suggestion: Chickens. It's a sitcom written by and staring Simon Bird and Joe Thomas. It's set in 1914 where most of the men go out to war but these 3 guys stay behind. I don't have a file to put into your folder unfortunately there are a few episodes on TH-cam :)
By the way Geoff is pronounced Jeff :)
Gee off loves juice
Who ever thought this would be a good idea? It's funny, but in a cringeworthy way. This is more of an extended SNL sketch.
'Allo 'Allo is a lot better and takes Michael out of everyone. Try reviewing that saw you will enjoy it more :)
Ah, you finally saw it! Worth the reaction!
BSB was a train wreck. It had financial woes during its creation, launch delays, incompetent management, overambitious new technology for the time, a sky high bill from buying movie rights, and, oh yeah, shit programming. And they were up against a rival company run by Rupert Murdoch. They didn't stand a chance.
As if that wasn't bad enough, Galaxy also brought us a game show that came straight out of the '50s - Wife of the Week. Housewives did chores competitively. There were daily winners, who on Friday faced each other to be crowned Wife of the Week. And what did she win? A Wife of the Week Rolling Pin! Hosted by one of Britain's best loved entertainers, Christopher Biggins. I hope to God he only did it for the money.
You pretty much foreshadowed G4's resurrection and immediate downfall via Frosk.
Re: WOTW- Good God, WHY?? They might as well have done an adaptation of the Easy Aces radio show which would've came out a shit ton better than what Canada pulled 52 years ago in "The Trouble With Tracy"
I bet this show got cancelled for being rubbish and they thought that saying it got cancelled for being "offensive" sounded better than it was a "load of crap" lol
Wow if you gave me 1000 guesses to the next reaction I wouldn't have picked this. I've actually never seen this so it should be fun!
Do the British do bad American accents?
You never think of it that way round.....
Well Noah said on a video yesterday that he thought it was an American cast, so they can't be that bad. In fact most Americans don't even realise when an English actor is playing an American. Most still think think Hugh Laurie is American until they see him with Stephen Fry.
@@HighHoeKermit that's true today, but in the past, British actors doing various American accents were often spotted rather quickly, just as Americans doing British accents could be picked out as well back then. The first that I ever heard do a truly accurate American accent was Tracey Ullman on her 1980's TV show, where she did a variety of different American accents, all quite convincingly. But I knew she was British. Others that I didn't know were British before first hearing their American accents were of course Laurie, and also Mark Addy and Alfred Molina. I first saw Addy in Still Standing with Jamie Gertz, and I first saw Molina in Maverick and Dudley Do-Right in which I thought he was an American actor doing a comically bad English accent for Snidely Whiplash.
there are films and monty python skits ripping on Hitler, so this is not that bad imo
I love this show so funny
I would buy the whole series of this, I like it, naughty little Hitler, lol
No words just WOW, I want see last episode
Neville Chamberlain (Patrick Cargill) plays the father in another 60s/70s show Father Dear Father
Was one of the better Number Two's in The Prisoner too.
It's still more enjoyable to watch than Mrs Browns Boys though.
The producer of this episode, Paul Jackson, is a British producer, he's had his hands in quite a few top British comedies, like "Bottom", "Red Dwarf", "The Young Ones" etc en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Jackson_(producer)
Funny thing is most people would recognise Gareth Marks as the sociopathic recurring apparently "French" antagonist Jean-Daniel in the 90's BBC spy-action show "BUGS."
It's surreal to see him in a sitcom role after that.
Your introduction had me in stitches, that was the weirdest thing I’ve ever seen.
Never knew this existed. Theres probably a reason for that. It looks like utter shite. Someone either wrote this whilst high on drugs or wrote it for a joke and someone who commissions tv shows was high on drugs or again said yes let's make this for a laugh.
My eyes have been violated lol . Top class reaction though dude
It's so bad, it's funny.
Hey! Where's the next episode? 😂
Check out the soap opera set in space Jupiter Moon.
I wish they would release the rest of the episodes, that was one of the most fucked up things I've seen😂.
I wonder if they purposefully set out to try and offend as many people as possible.
Its "I Love Lucy" if Ricky was Fidel Castro.
There's also a "documentary" - "Hitler, the comedy years" www.imdb.com/title/tt0988994/reference
Anyone else looking forward to Jojo Rabbit?
It's a very bad time to be a nazi
If anyone can pull that off it’s Taika
Go and air this in Germany see what they think 😂
Kinda like I Love Lucy with contributions from the Pythons.
THAT aside it isn't real very good, actually it strifes to rise to be average.
It's mainly a spoof of US television and some of the ridiculous sitcom ideas they had in the 1960s such as My Mother the Car
. But it's also a commentary on the appeasement of Hitler prior to WWII.
Is that Hitler ..Robin Williams ?
Well, that was just.....yeah.
There's a german comedy show called switch reloaded that did some sketches based on the office but with Hitler as the manager.
Way funnier than this and including some quite bad taste stuff in there (not sure if in once part he was complaining about the cost of gas).
Well I *was* about to go to bed. I guess I will be watching this instead then.
Have we entered the twilight zone Noah, wow. No wonder only one Episode is out there.
I can only assume it got darker as it progressed...
I’ve never even heard of that LOL🏴
I do wonder if the other ten episodes were actually filmed, it is a very strange sitcom indeed.
TheMischievousbull well some footage from the other episodes was uploaded to you tube in I believe 2006
Edit hers an alternate opening that was used in the regular episodes after the pilot m.th-cam.com/video/Pe6hz84_fgU/w-d-xo.html
bialistock and bloom could only wish for this
Surreal ..I Love Lucy.
Phil McDonald That mixed with The Honeymooners.
Reminds me of The Producers
I actually don't think it's that bad. Seems to be the type of comedy that would split on generational lines but then lots of the early scripts from Only Fools and Horses definitely wouldn't fly by modern standards yet it wasn't offensive. And humour level isn't that poor, I mean, shit like Derek got more than one series and that was unfunny and offensive.
modern standards = what 'upsets' social media users, who do not reflect the public as a whole, yet receives attention from the main media as a result, therefore influencing more of the majority. The power of social media! I believe a few early only fools episodes are never shown today due to their slang references to ethnicity and similar. This is still too much for most channels as they don't want social media backlash and a fall in reputation
@@MrVidification Have you considered following Laurance Fox on Twitter? You'd get on well. Both talk nonsense.
"It's just a joke" is a common cry Yeah? Why is it the joke always targets a minority group?
Modern standards just don't think it funny to marginalise a minority group and subject them to mockery, ridicule, or stereotype. Simple as that.
@@mentaldavethefirst The show above targeted a historical leader and stereotypes all americans. What are you watching that is 'always targeting a minority'? That sounds like the real nonsense, unless you can give examples. Slang terms (eg for one or two ethnic groups in a couple of early only fools) were very few and never used as the basis of any joke, nor used to ridicule. They were shortcut terms that referenced country. The real issue is when the same or similar words are eventually taken up by racists, and the words end up having a more negative connotation.
It wasn't a US comedy. The main cast were always the butt of the joke, the characters that sought success always messed things up (bar the last series).
Yes, modern standards are to find something to complain about in an over generalised fashion, which does abolutely nothing to resolve anything. Without calm dialogue, online or face to face, nothing is ever resolved, divisions arise, and everybody with alternate viewpoints ends up as they do online, shouting with their fingers in their ears. Social media has more power and influence than you seem to realise, for all people
In one episodes Del makes a quip to an Asian pub patron about having seen his wife who appears to have a terrible spot on her forehead. In another Slater makes a joke that he is now at an age where he is so unattractive that even gay (except he doesn't use the word gay) people don't fancy him - the tired trope that gay people are more promiscuous. In another episode Del jokes to Rodney that due to the presence of gay people that have to dance with their backs to the wall.
There is three examples off the top of my head.
@@mentaldavethefirst None of those are slang terminology, but what is deemed as offensive or light hearted depends on context and individual intepretation. Stereotyping is not necessarily racist, and prejudice doesn't have to be positive or negative. The first and last joke may make fun of the central characters more given they have no or limited knowledge of the subjects at hand. The gay jokes you mention don't target any ethnicity and wouldn't have been so tired in the 80s, or even 90s, and the level of acceptability has changed a lot (in the main media and social media at least-less so when it comes to people of most faiths, or even within some asian communities). You can of course debate that certain jokes are written with a specific type of audience in mind, but you would have to question the writers to find out the truth. Fairly modern shows post 2000 such as south park have 'gotten away' with a lot more regarding making fun of everything and anything. Aside from being animated, the popularity of a show can help with the level of acceptability. The real problems start when people do not have the ability to occasionally laugh at themselves, but there are few tv shows made to truly only make fun of others
So surreal..but still pretty good acting..lol
I was genuinely impressed by the energy and commitment of the main cast.
8 not 11 ep
Taffe, it’s not your fault but the show is absolutely dreadful lol- your channel is great for showing me things I’ve never seen, so could I recommend “on the buses”? I’d never seen it before a couple of days ago and thought it was something you’d enjoy reacting to.
Did anyone own a squarial long enough to see this?
There's a house round my area which still has a squarial on it. I guess it will never be taken down.
@@robthemodYT I guess it will just fall off one day, hitting a Sky engineer on the head, as one final act of rebellion.
@@robthemodYT Did YT do that thing of deleting your comment the second you post it?
@@HighHoeKermit I can see it and yours
InsaneGamers When you first replied I got the notification but when I came on the page to look, the comment did not exist. Then I got another one 10 mins later saying the same thing, but then the comment was there this time. I wondered because I made a comment on something the other day and it did just that. The channel said it got a notification that I'd left a comment but it wasn't there, until I wrote it again.
These are some desperate actors 😨😨
Patrick Cargill who played Chamberlain was actually a comedy actor of some note. Quite how he was persuaded to record this garbage is anyone's guess.
@@jasejj lol ... never heard of him but my guess is his never worked again ?
@@animationlynx5054 I don't think he did, no, poor bugger lol
@@jasejj not surprized
@@animationlynx5054 It is a bit of a shame. He had lead roles in two 70s sitcoms, one of which was sold around the world, and was the doctor in Hancock's seminal blood donor episode. The man was bloody good. A sad end to a glowing career.
WTactualF
I don't think that actor ever acted again after this.
He did, actually. Indeed, most of the cast went on to have very successful careers - apart from Patrick Cargill, who played Neville Chamberlain. He'd already had a long and successful career as a character actor before this was made, and this was his last gig before he died a few years later.
That wasn't bad taste, it was awful. Bad taste is normally humorous even the laugh track sounds bored in this
I guessed right 😁
Well, that was certainly something, lol. Wtf moments aplenty.
...
I think I might be a bit twisted, lol.
Not sure what to make of it to be honest.
if ya wanna do bad taste and FUNNY then do derek and clive get the horn!
I can see why only one episode aired. I'm like you, I've only seen sketches, never seen the whole episode
That character Arny looks like Paul Heyman!
We're in the endgame now
Noah Geoff is pronounced Jeff
I have to admit. I laughed. Not because it was funny and I enjoyed it, but it's because of how stupid and bizarre that show was and definitely a complete ripoff of The Honeymooners. Like WTF?!
Taika waititi anyone ?
Yh if this was funny might have worked also no irony or sarcasm the acting was the best thing about it
can't understand why Patrick Cargill agreed to do this
This is as unfunny as I remember. I think the concept would work as a few minute section in a sketch show.
Ermm okay some things are so bad that they are funny that wasn’t
Looks like a parody on Seinfeld... and 10 times as funny
This show could have been funny if it wasn't so offensive.
