When he said “Former Father”, I paused the video to get popcorn and said to myself this is gonna be good.
...go on, I'm listening now.
Indeed, I thought he was divorced and has lost his daughter's custody but later we found that she died and was brought back from the dead
He also said he was an amateur riddle writer.
It really WAS about that point where it looked like that man's wheels were coming off.
Haha
I love how quickly they pass over the fact the place is flooded with radon
I mean, I think that explains everything. Radiation.
That... and chem trails, the Illuminati, “alien NSA”, Alien NSA, and people who eat seeded rye bread.
@@zeroxeroFX ...
@@zeroxeroFX Tf?
@Ahmed Malaki indeed.. i thought it was the arch nemesis of godzilla.
@Ahmed Malaki I guess technically that’s correct
Someone cancelled their order when the broomshakalaka didn't have a frosting gun
Went from 19 to 18
Someone else ordered one
Thats not frosting. Trust me, I have tasted It.
Lol caulk gun great double entendre
I thought Mark said "Cock gun".
😂😂😂
Still in awe at the fact that the same people who directed this also won an Oscar for directing Everything Everywhere All at Once
really who?
The Daniels, who made this and later on when to be writers/directors on Everything Everywhere All at Once, which won 7 awards including best picture.
I was right to love the broomshakalaka
Haha, thats amazing XD
Wow
I love how three people bought it right after he cut off his hand.
Either somebody needed less hands or they wanted a very realistic pirate costume
Someone unbought it at 3:12
Nah the best was right after the laser
"It's caulk."
-1 sale
Now i just bought three of them
“Those were her ashes we spread earlier” “gross”
Lost it.
Fun fact: It's cremated remains. Not ashes, but literally ground-up bones.
*who asked music intensifies*
@@okeoi You know it's both, right? You know what happens when you get cremated?
@@collinjones8661 I do. I work in the industry. Yes there is some ash left over (usually from the container the person is in), you're not wrong, but it is mostly bone material.
Just like how he lost his daughter.
I can't believe they managed to turn this around into a happy ending wtf
Emotional roller-coaster
I don't know man. The only way I can interpret this is that Mark accidentally killed Eileen and himself while swinging the laser broom around and at the end they are all in the afterlife.
pretty sure the joke is that the whole thing was staged to sell brooms
an absurdist satire piece on the deception of infomercials
@@xourbo8734 I think the daughter coming back to life stuff maybe was staged but the cutting off hands and stuff really happened perhaps?
The answer is provided right there in the dialog - "Don't think; you just have to believe!" Easy as cake. This interpretation is confirmed by the fact it's on Adult Swim, where reality is the exception, not the rule. Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell is another show that discourages over-interpretation.
"i USED to have a daugter myself, so i know how important safety is"
HAD ME ROLLING ON THE GROUND
NOT BY THE BROOMSHAKALAKA.
FORMER FATHER🌟
Use not used...
no it's definitely used, otherwise this wouldn't make sense grammatically and story wise@@winstonwolfwhiteshoes
Love how when he tastes the caulk the number sold goes from 19 to 18. Someone returned theirs already
They had only bought it for the frosting dispenser
Mark has the most complete character arc out of any Adult Swim production. He goes from skeptic to believer right before our eyes.
that's jim can't u see?
@@mikekasich836 no that's Kim can't you see
And all it took was a resurrection to occur in front of him.
*2 resurrections
@@mikekasich836 Jim's not Asian!
Let's appreciate how good of an actor all these people were.
the kid was pretty bad but i think thats intentional
Factually
No
No
They even got Jim from the Office!
I’m still deeply impressed that the writers thought to rhyme “raison d’être” with “radon detecta”... 😂
You know, if someone aired an infomercial this batshit insane, I'd buy their product just on principle alone.
You mean you didn't ring that number????
@Tomsdottir I called. My Broomshalaka came last week.
True. This should’ve aired on adult swim infomercials. I know some folks probably tried to get Claridryl
I would and already have my broom is on back order but I’ll be notified when it’s in stock and on its way to me 🙏🏾🙌🏾
You better if you want to be safe from radon
They somehow managed to pack all the emotional highs and lows of a Grand Opera in eleven minutes. It's a hell of an accomplishment.
Well if you given someone with a time restriction like this one you have to be more creative, it kinda diffcult to do that.
Indeed.
@@jomarcenter time restriction becomes a joke when you start sweeping away the minutes we don't need with the Broomshakalaka!
“You’re not Jewish are you.”
“I’m... no- I mean- Yes.”
I'm NOT antisemitic. Seriously!
I can't believe he would cut it off
Underrated line
The Sierra Leone line right after was just as gold
"Well, don't make a mountain out of a mohel"
The people who directed this just got an Oscar last night. I'm impressed.
Multiple Oscars.
Who? The Asian guy from the goonies, and indiana jones?
@@pablo66669 um no? it's the daniels
What’s there full names?
@@rahkboy1002 Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert
"Time is bleeding out. "
I laughed harder than I needed to.
It wasn't even that funny
Julian Vargas at the beginning he told that riddle and asks "who am i?" then says his own name. then he reveals the answer was also "time". So he IS time. therefor, since he is bleeding out, time is also bleeding out.
@@fanrco766 ah...
the art of making a stupid joke a awesome joke by context
"you killed him." "Honey we were going to the vet to put him down."
“Can I swear?”
“No”
Holy shit that got me more than it should have
HE JUST SAID YOU CAN'T SWEAR, CRIS!
The husband is probably my favourite character from anything he goes from complete panic about radon to a revelation about saving time lmao
Randall definitely needs to show up more often on AS shows and shorts.
"Danny you're back!"
"And so are my hands! Now check out the Broomshakalaka's GUITAR MODE"
I laughed at that sence
Epic drum solo
Fuck not again
Literally feels like a guitar
"You killed French Fries. I loved that dog."
"But we were on our way to have him put down."
🤣
That's kinda sad 😔
@@emilianomunozdiaz9494 yeah
He's back though
I like how his ENTIRE hand came off. Straight through the bone
I bet ya do like that you weirdo
That's the quality you get from the broomshakalaka
Well the broomshrakalaka is like magic
@@sean..L they were admiring the details, this isn't a fetish like you think it is weirdo.
@@bobisnotaperson I was joking.
The fact she grabs that bowl of ash before he asks it is just perfect.
And also, instead of embracing his daughter that returned from the dead, he just whips out a guitar and shreds
"Those were my daughter's ashes"
"Gross"
LOL that got me
“Not by a broomshakalaka... but by jihadists”
Mmmhmmm
Oof
The broomshakalaka is kid friendly it would never decapitate a child
theyre a disgusting culture
@@turinhorse Fuck you.
This was the happiest infomercial that Adult Swim has ever made.
I dunno, the one with the salad mixer dildos was pretty happy, at least for the women in it, lol
Ok
Goomba Pizza edit yours now
Um, okay, I deleted it. ???
"Former father"
I fcking love these when they'd play at like 3am
I remember watching them live the first time stoned off my ass it was great
I mean I think that explains everything. Radiation.
That... and chem trails, the Illuminati, “alien NSA”, Alien NSA, and people who eat seeded rye bread.
Yup, adult swim turned me into a night person, used to stay up just to watch the crazy, good to see them still kicking after all these years.
This had an overwhelmingly wholesome ending that I was not expecting
You clearly missed the point of the entire video if you think it was a wholesome ending
@@tj12711 Or perhaps you could say that you two epitomize optimists and pessimists... And I irritating.
Masterpiece
I need a Broomshakalaka!

@@silverfoenix the broomshakalaka of course
Same here
is that Jim from the office?
YES
Asian Jim.
also from fresh off the boat
No, but the women is.
and Kim in the interview
Lost it at
"Are you sure that thing is safe?"
"Absolutely! Y'know I used to have a daughter myself, so I know how important safety is"
😂 i just watched the show
7:30
"I hurt myself again.."
"How? I gave you a normal broom."
"Yeah... Its up my butt now though."
This part has me crying 😂
I guess the age old statement is true for you....comedy is truly funny when it is relatable. 😆
daniel tellez poor Carl..
Poor Carl
Adults are truly glorified adolescents
This becomes relevant years later. 😂
Man, Jim from The Office is looking great these days
I thought he looked familiar lol
never noticed that he was jewish though
It’s kinda hilarious and a little tiny bit sad that he’ll forever be Jim a person who is most definitely (not not not) himself.
He joined the FBI, too! What a versatile man.
Props for not noticing race
It's like a Whose Line infomercial skit that Drew never called off.
The guy playing Denny Boffa deserved to win whatever acting award this kind of thing qualities for
Notice the number of broomshakalakas sold decreased after he said it was a caulk gun instead of a frosting gun.
fuckyeah it did. Who wouldn't want a frosting gun?
***** Well of course. Who does't want a semen dispenser?
***** my ex-gf lol

lmao, ikr
"Holy shit.. uh... can I swear?" "No!" "Uh, wow!"
“What do we do? It’s heavy.”
“Well that’s good, it means it’s quality.”
This is by the same directors of Everything Everywhere All At Once. Now I know why I loved this so much.
Isn't it creepy that they sold 6 Broomshakalakas the moment he chopped the 2nd hand?
Actually it's kinda weird there weren't more potential murderers in the audience.
@@mittenstherealest And think of the god complex this thing would give a potential psychopath. The power to both take away and restore life all with a few easy payments of $19.95.
I bought 3.
Lol they lost someone at 2:57 - 3:13
Nope that makes perfect human logic
That sold counter is getting those Yu-Gi-Oh life points
lol
I love how watching AS infomercials is like watching comercials from parallel universes, like that Rick and Morty episode
Yan5512 I scrolled looking for this comment, Thank You
yeah, this was some twilight zone shit
I'm being dead serious when I say that if infomercials were really like this, they would sell the shit out of their shit!
This being the second one I've seen, the first being about that white dude selling knives/swords who was a special forces member, and the people _in_ the skits are walking that fine line where I have no idea if their character is in on it or if that's their sell so that kind of keeps you guessing till the very end.
If infomercials were really like this I'd be glued to this channel.
thats where they got the idea from
I REALLY love when he goes to break the boom at the beginning
The writers of this deserve so much more credit. This is amazing. Justin Becker and Steve Clemmons, I hope you guys get a ton of work.
"Raison d'etre for a raydon detector!" .... is easily some of my favorite wordplay
“That’s the broomshakalaka’s blow torch, perfect for that bananas foster we were trying to make on purpose!”
This is legitimately one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen
Accidental bananas foster is one of the biggest problems you can run into with low-grade off the shelf heating tools.
What's really got me dying here is how needlessly epic the poem at the start is for a broom commercial.
I wish actual infomercials were more like that.
You know I used to have a daughter myself, so I know how important safety is!
Oh
OH
*remembering to put on the safety
"Those were her ashes we spread earlier."
"Gross."
This is gold.
Damn, that intro was deep, but it didn't prepare me for the things to come
One of many amazing subtle moments: when Eileen starts getting the bowl of ashes before he even asks her to hand him the bowl.
not ashamed to say i think this shit is genius.
gee whiz, kid. I'm not really trying to present myself as some kind of uber-hip defender of culture, here. I'm just showing some support for something I like because I see alot of people hating on these AdultSwim fake infomercials and I like them.It's not like I'm trying to "score points' or 'look cool'. Get over yourself, you little dork.
you're so mean! frowny face.
I don't generally celebrate the anniversaries of youtube comments but I guess you're right. I hope you've grown as much as I have in this magical space of time.
+Dan Cooper 2015 sucked ass to everyome
+NevermindPlays everyone
Ilene: That... is a banana
Denny: ... *stares intently at banana*
*pause*
Denny: Okay great-
IM CRYING
I'd feel very bad for anybody who turned their TV on to see this without know it was fake.
Cancer Drink you shouldn't
Its funny knowing that there is probably one person who did
@@TABBYMUSIC i did
The way that french fry just flew into the room out of thin air made my laugh so hard
I like how Denny left the broom up his ass during the rest of the skit. Reminds me of when Carl did it for the Aqua Teens.
Because of Denny Boffa, I was able to clean up the giant pile of corpses in my basement with ease! I will never have to deal with dangerous cleaning supplies ever again! Thanks, Broomshakalaka, and thank Denny Boffa, you wonderful, wonderful man. One Love.
I am the destroyer of Mountains, the killer of kings
I always fly by, yet I don't have wings
I can end Basketball games or marriages with similar ease
And though I flow like a stream, only water can freeze
I've murdered parents children and houseplants galore
Yet, Despite all this, you always want more...
Who am I?
I'm *DENNY BOFFA,* Amateur riddle writer, *Former Father* and Inventor of the *BROOMSHAKALAKA!*
VulpesVulpez hold up
Time
That monalog takes on a whole other meaning after you've watched the vid...
I was gonna say Air at first, but then he said it was time! Lol
Like 665... One more will be appropriate I think.
I’m so glad the person who directed this just won best picture
I lost it at former father
2:28 “the garden trimmers motion sensor will shut it down when I come within a dickwidth of the blade...” ⚙️
That's a gear.
Samuel Hawkins Stfu
A dickwidth? 😂
It’s shorter than the blade itself.
@@samuelhawkins7080 You try finding a buzz saw emoji.
This is truly a story of growth and understanding.
"Don't make a mountain out of a mohel" had me rolling!
the ppl who directed this directed everything everwhere all at once
🤣🤣 the husband's response made me laugh
"She was decapitated..."
"Holy shit"
"...not by the broomshakalaka"
"Oh, okay"
"It was the Jihadists"
"Mmh-hmm"
"Those were her ashes we spread earlier"
"That's gross"
"Those were her ashes we spread earlier."
"Gross."
I don't know but I want some!
I nearly shat when he first said "former father".
Take a seat. Are you sitting? Good.
This infomercial was directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert who just won 7 Oscars for "Everything Everywhere All At Once", including Best Picture.
A24 won a total of 9 awards, more than any other studio and/or distributor.
@@Naminski1aAnd it won all 4 acting nominees, a first in Oscar history.
While i wasn’t necessarily thinking of them, that is an incredibly unsurprising fact when you take into account the content of both films lol. Thanks for telling us.
Love how the brooms sold counter goes down at certain points
The next video:
Join the cult of BroomShakalaka
"Only thing I'm losing right now is patience. I asked for a banana."
"That... is a banana"
"...."
"...."
"Okay great, hey--"
Best part! 😂
I was about to write the same thing ! That part was funny 😂
Perfect for that bananas foster we were trying to make on purpose
The raison d'etre radon detector is the single most clever rhyme like ever.
This guy throwin his toilet paper like he's from 2019 this is just messed up 0:55
Please just send a square. I have kids.
Call the number at the end dude.
Im offended
LAME over tired joke
@@dankyjoker "7 months ago." As in, when it was relevant. Ya tit.
Now Eileen, what do you think about when you think about brooms?
“Idk...witches”
Exactly, the broom shakalaka is like magic,
Witch-is
Exactly what you’ll be saying when you see how it handles interior decorating.
That pun can make a monk angry
I read that right when it happened
"losses arm" someone buys a broom.
Everytime I watch this I feel as though I've experienced a million lifetimes in the space of eleven minutes.
4:48 THEY EVEN USED THE WILHELM SCREAM LMFAOOOOOOO
Omg trueee haha
holy crap this is a masterpiece of comedy
How have I gone six years without knowing this was on youtube?!
Hey Eileen you're not from Sierra Leone are you?
Im most definitely AM.
U out in boca leone
What are the odds?

From this, to Academy Award winners.
"I've murdered children and parents and houseplants gallore"

Me: F O R M E R?!?! 👁👄👁
his daughter was murdered by jihadists
@@aliensguy4291 I thought you said his daughter murdered my jihadists
@@CuriousGrimGoblin fixed. changed "my" to "by"
@@aliensguy4291 to me it was funny don't worry
*"You know I used to have a daughter myself"*
"I'm Denny Boffa, amateur riddle writer, *former father*, and inventor of the Broomshakalaka."
And this may just be a coincidence, but Eileen briefly smiles when dog treats shoot out of the broom.
This seems to be the only one of the Infomercials that starts out sinister but ends in a heartwarming way.
Opposite of Too Many Cooks
There are so many gems in this script. Absolutely rewatchable.
“The only thing I’m losing right now, is patience-I asked for a banana”
“That is a banana...”
"I used to have a daughter myself, so I know how important safety is" holup🤔
"She was 12 years old when she died. She was decapitated. Not by the Broomshakalaka."
@@rickc2102 that's not what he meant, he was talking about condoms
Ah, former fathers say the darndest things.
I like how John Krasinski acts in this video
Top tier
I like when he sweeps his second hand off the counter to get it out of the way lol
3:34 “because time is bleeding out”
I lost it.
If this came on TV while I was half-asleep at 2 in the morning I'd be very, very confused
This is the quality content I have been missing in my life.
How many Oscar winning directors can say they also did an Adult Swim infomercial? As of today, just 2
That stupid song "Too Many Cooks" is stuck in my head. I thought watching this would make it better. Now I want that song stuck in my head, instead I bought a case of 12 Broomshakalakas.
Is it bad that I really liked that happy ending?
i actually teared up for a moment. it was a really powerful and beautiful moment how it came out of nowhere....i rose out of my seat and started shouting encouragement at the fictional characters on my laptop screen with a big smile on my face....yeah
No. No it is not. I am not. Seriously, despite liking stuff like Too Many Cooks and such, this just made me cry a bit. It....was surprising, to say the least.
It would be a little more predictable if think if they all had bad ending xD
xD Yeah, I suppose so. Its a nice change, despite involving a magical broom multi-tool...thing.
when Danny came back to life I lost it...he still had that regular broom in him but it was great he could see his daughter
Easily one of the best comedy skits I've ever seen.
Nine years and odd later, they're Oscar winners.
Love the DANIELS!
