These People

Merry Christmas Everyone!

ThesePeople have checked their list (that’s a Santa Claus reference) and it doesn’t matter if you’ve been naughty or nice, (though naughty is ok sometimes, ladies) we have a new CHRISTMAS sketch for you all!

We worked extra hard on this to get it to all of you in time for the Holidays and more importantly in time for you to feature it on your video webpage or blog should you own or operate one.

Presenting: CARL THE CHRISTMAS CLOWN! This sketch was a huge undertaking. Elaborate costumes, green screens, freezing cold shoots in back alleys, adorable nieces and nephews, and some more original rockin music from our good buddy Matt Raetzel, but thanks to the sticktoitiveness of ThesePeople and our amazing editor Steve Immer we pulled it off.

Carl the Christmas Clown tells the heartwarming tale of well, Carl the Christmas Clown and what happens to him when the residents of Christmas Town tire of his clowny antics.

This is our second foray into Christmas territory following up last year’s hit “Christmas is a Time.” CtCC also serves as our SEASON THREE Season Finale. That’s right, Dec 2008 wraps up the 3rd year of the ThesePeople experience. We’ll be back in mid January of ‘09 for the start of Season 4 packed with more of the side-splitting hilarity you’ve come to expect from ThesePeople.

For now, laugh along with Carl here:

2008 has been a banner year for ThesePeople. We made 20 new sketches, were on TV in Canada, featured on CollegeHumor.com, YouTube put us in the comedy spotlight several times, “Homemade Porn” got over 5,000,000 views and most importantly we finally got that much sought after Front Page YouTube feature with “Killing Button.” Not too mention we got some great new cast members in Tim, Jeff, Lauren, Matt, Katy, Mason, Paul and Shannon. PLUS there were those unforgettable video crossovers with SixFingerFist, Average Betty and our great friend from across the pond Sean Cameron.

Whew, what a year! So where do we go from here? Let’s find out together in 2009.

Happy Holidays! If you want to get us something we’ll cherish forever, have your friends subscribe to our YouTube channel OR follow our antics on Twitter.

Have a great rest of 08, and we’ll see you in 09.

Your pals always,
Matt and ThesePeopleComedy.com
