There’s nothing like this in the mainstream. Nothing this high-quality, nothing this good, nothing unique in the way that “Ransom” and Olde English are unique. So uniquely good! Thank you for this and the other short films. Several of my favorites are in “The Vault” or are buried in “The Supervault”. Please consider putting all of those up according to year alongside the short films already present in the main section(s), because I highly doubt I would have found them without the help of a friend who navigated me through your website and showed them to me. This friend also introduced me to Olde English and your website. New fans (myself included) appreciate those videos and your old fans who seem to be extremely loyal (my friend included) are sad that it’s hard or impossible to find some of their favorites. I don’t intend to complain…just trying to provide constructive criticism and helpful feedback because I like your work and want all of you at Olde English, all of your loved ones, and all of us fans around the world to be as well-off and happy as possible. Where would you be without us (your fans)? We thrive because of you and you thrive because of us, its symbiotic. Frankly put are the words of my friend: “I need Olde English videos. They help treat my chronic depression.” I don’t have depression issues, but now I’ve come to understand what is meant. I would be bleaker and more frustrated without your videos and I’m certain they are a harmless form of helpful, positive “treatment” for many people. O my Ransom has made my day, as have quite a few of your other of your creations. You all do a very fine job. Nicely done, thank you for existing and doing what you do – I have seen the happiness and health of my friend improve and now I know why. My own happiness and health are improving. Stay happy and healthy yourselves.
Sincerely,
Sam
P.S. Next time I’m in New York for a good long stay, I will come to one of your live shows if not more than one.

Very, very, funny, in fact hilarious! Poor Suzanne…of course no one was harmed in reality. Still. O my. This is such a unique, inventive style/brand of comedy, what a sublime alternative to mainstream boring junk! Thank you! Einstein said something about imagination being important. Frankly, you guys and this sketch are ingenious!

I like how long it takes him to figure out what his watch says.

This kinda stuff…is what makes Olde English like none others. Retardedly funny yet genius in its own way.
