Review: Olde English

If you’ve watched BoJack Horseman or Adam Ruins Everything, you’ve seen work by some of the founding members of Olde English: Adam Conover and Raphael Bob-Waksberg. When they were still students in the early 2000s, the members of OE started producing many comedy video shorts and put them online. Not all of them are comedy gold, but I found a few of them pretty amusing. My favorites include:

• Kill Jim Liebowitz, an amusing take on the “video games cause violence” frenzy
• Dishes Like To Be Dirty, for everyone who’s enjoyed life with a roommate and without a dishwasher
• One Picture Every Day, a parody of many, many similar YouTube videos

This is old-school stuff, with embedded Flash player and everything. You’ll find a few of them on YouTube as well, and hopefully the rest of them won’t disappear from the face of the Net.
