OK, this is one of the best episodes. It has a lot of dry spots because at parts its too long. Watching it a few times just makes it hillarious. In backbpack picnic, I think a great idea is to watch their facial expressions. Some of them are ridiculous to whats going on in the story that that alone makes it funny.
How can people not laugh at this? Just the reactions and deadpan back chat is enough reason to laugh in itself. Yes, the giant arms were weird, but so is the whole video. It's funny, damnit! No to everyone's taste, but it does set an example how we see people. (Please, like people don't go into a waiting room or reception area and instantly stare at a funny feature of another).
I guess there's something wrong with me because I laughed so hard I was crying...I loved it. The punch line wasn't so great but the entire skit was so stupid that it was fantastic...I loved her reactions...I'm gonna go watch it again.
1. a misunderstanding, disagreement, etc., of a complicated or bitter nature, as between persons or nations.
2. an intricate and perplexing state of affairs; a complicated or difficult situation.
3. a confused heap.
If you're talking about the stutters that happen when the right-side menu changes, unfortunately it's consistent. Bummer, huh?

Visit the strangest waiting room in America. Despite not being allowed to use cellphones or gerunds, there's something even more odd about this place. You won't believe the incredible visual effects in this week's episode of Backpack Picnic.
Don’t get me wrong, Backpack’s not for everybody – it’s about
as random as it comes – but it’s definitely a breath of fresh air in
the sketch comedy landscape where lame writing and tired clichés
flourish.
They came to town via Austin amidst huge buzz from the sketch community,
so I was pumped to see what these boys could bring. If you were hanging
around the fest later Friday night, you already know that I thought
this show was phenomenal. At the risk of sounding like a Rolling Stone
movie review, I’ll add that I laughed the entire time. Hard.
Take the absurdity of Monty Python and mix it with the wit and hilarity
of Kids in the Hall and you've got yourself the makings of Backpack
Picnic. The Austin, Texas-based sketch comedy troupe, best known for
its top-rated Internet shorts on onnetworks.com, will perform as part of the Chicago Sketchfest.

This one is also my favorite. Nice use of (I'm guessing) consulting a word-of-the day calendar. Today's word was "nocebo," just so you know.
It's really funny...I gave it a second watch...still funny!

I agree with Stephanie. The punchline at the end sucks. A couple funny moments. But mostly a waste of time.
