woah!!!! just found out that matt cohen sucks balls. human giant over whitest kids? obviously he’s working for them, or he’s been paid. whitest kids u know rule! i respect comedy, but human giant never goes for it the way whitestkids do. their comedy is smart and always twisting. let it be known that matt cohen prefers SNL type boring humor vs. new ways to laugh. bet you anything he’s a hillary supporter.

Bill: I spent all of tonight comparing sketches by the two groups, and I still think Human Giant is a much funnier show. I dig Whitest Kids U Know, but their hit or miss ratio is much lower then the Giant boys.

And as far as viewership, you have to keep in mind that the Kids started as an internet group, and brought some built in fan base, whereas Human Giant was all but unknown, unless you hung out at the UCB theatre.

I still enjoy both troupes, but think that Human Giant is the best sketch group out there today.

I agree with you on everything except Walk Hard. I thought it was highly underrated, but otherwise you and I are on the same page.

I’m scared right now because I think we might possibly share the same brain. I have to agree with you completely on everything you wrote here, except for the word ride. Journey might have been a good choice.

Wow Matt. I’m going to have to strongly disagree with you about best sketch group. And I bet you anything most of the audiences will as well. I started watching both shows when they aired last year and have gone to you tube to show friends and family. Whitest Kids have sketches with views up into the millions. I don’t think Human Giant has one above 50 or 60 thousand. I know a lot of my friends prefer Whitest Kids over Human Giant as well. I do agree with you about the “Space Lords” video, that’s great. Jonah is the best.

Hot Fuzz is the best film I have seen in years. I love the trio (Wright, Pegg, and Frost) and am very upset that Run, Fatboy, Run never made it to the states (to my knowledge). Very good blog… and I hate blogs

Totally agree on Hot Fuzz. Not only the funniest movie of last year, but my favorite overall too. Wright, Pegg, Frost, and co. are amazing.

Nice job Matt. I haven’t even heard of Human Giant so I’ll have to check that out. Did you like Eagle Vs. Shark? I’d like to hear your thoughts on that. Also, have you seen the Tim and Eric Awesome Show? It’s on adult swim and the only thing I can compare it to is Mr. Show meets Wondershowzen. Bob and Dave are in it as well as John C. Reiley and Weird Al. It’s crazy.
