I too love how she keeps yelling “All in one day!” She sounds so excited about this incorrect assumption.
As for “edgy”, it’s a word that gets slapped onto many comedy groups, usually just because of the adjective that came before it, “young”.
In this case, I think it’s warranted because OE, above any other group I’ve seen, is on the cutting edge of sketch comedy, actively pursuing ways of innovating within the form.
But most of what was said on that show was just out of politeness. The hosts of Good Morning America and the comedy community live in two different worlds. They care as much about good sketch comedy as OE does about new, “exciting” additions to their show.
But it was awesome to see the two worlds cross over. Especially since their world is broadcasted to millions of people nationwide.
So, in conclusion, “WOO! CONGRATZ O-TO-THE-E! WOOOO!”
Congratulations! ^_^ You all are amazing, and I adore the commentary and how it made it clear to all the blind people watching the show what exactly was going on.
I don’t know if y’all knew this, but a screen shot of your sketch that was featured on Good Morning America, was also used in the help section about the new facebook MyShares feature. It teaches users that OE is the only videos you should be sharing with your friends.
BTW FYI GMA is lame, so lame. That annoucer, lame. I wish he would stop talking so I could watch the video again. Seriously guys, you are too cool for those lame-ass dudes. Did I mention that they are lame? Because they are. In fact, your wonderful video was only a glaring reminder about how lame they are. I will try calling ABC and get you your own show, that way your beatiful videos can be viewed unadulterated. You edgy young comedians from Brooklyn, you desreve better than GMA.
Much Love,

Joe, if you can’t get a free hug at Bennington College, you are simply not trying hard enough.

I noticed that they edited the liquor out of the video.
November 28th, 2006 at 11:48 pm

I saw other TV morning talk shows highlighting Ben takes a picture of himself everyday, and they were awesome. This one was just stupid.
