Don’t Peel Out!

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

Hey Tatertots,

I know it’s been a little while since you’ve heard from us, but we’ve been very busy cleaning off all the fake blood and picking up all the severed body parts left over from ANOTHER highly successful SHOCKTOBERSKETCH. Also, I was in LA for two weeks.

As is the tradition with ThesePeople the sketch following Shocktobersketch should always be super weird. To that end we’ve decided to release the weirdest thing we’ve done since “Talent Show” (with possibly the exception of “JOLCats”). PRESENTING “Potato Buddy!” A strange tuber tale starring the newest people in ThesePeople Jeff and Tim along with a plucky little Potato and a hit music track from our good friend Matt Raetzel. Plus, we had some serious help from our friends Marian and an exotic dancer who prefers to remain nameless. I think. Actually, I’m not sure if she DID want to remain nameless, but I think it’s better to err on the side of caution on this one.

Check out all the SPUD-tacular action here:

While I was on the aforementioned trip to L.A. ThesePeople stayed VERY busy. FIRST OFF, our good friend Sean “The Englishman” Cameron and I did a crossover with Internet cooking sensation AVERAGE BETTY! You can catch that delicious crossover here.

Sean and I also found the time to shoot a sketch of our own with the help of another friend of ours Joel Slabaugh, who later in the week helped shoot yet ANOTHER sketch with Ryan “My, Robot” Mason. It was like the West Coast Avengers of ThesePeople!

So to recap…there are TWO new sketches in the can. ONE new Internet crossover NOW ONLINE. ONE brand new ThesePeople sketch about a potato. Not bad for Thanksgiving week.

Enjoy your time off and spend it right there in front of the Internet with the people you really love, THESEPEOPLE.

We’ve been letting you digest the carcass of Shocktobersketch for a couple weeks now, slowly letting you starve until you were ravenous for more of these “comedies.” Why so many synonyms for eating you ask? Maybe I’m just really hungry after watching the latest video from friend of These People and cooking/comedy vixen Average Betty. It’s about America’s favorite delicacy, and also happens to star our very own Matt Cassatta and The Englishman himself, Sean Cameron.

You can watch it below, and check out Average Betty’s site for more great recipes!

It’s lunch time on the east coast. Bring back some chicken fingers for me, will ya?
