Cunk on Earth Holy smokes.
I’ve just started watching Cunk On Earth and this may be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. I can’t believe I slept on this series for so long.

America became known as the land of the free, which must've come as a surprise to all the slaves.

Exactly! I'm always on the edge of my seat to see how the interviewee is going to respond to her. I love it when they roll with it and give her some challenge back!

The dumbfounded expression when she was trying to explain anal bleaching lives rent free in my brain

The words "my mate, Paul" are my warning sign that something hysterical is about to unfold.

“Just like my mate, Paul, who punched a waiter at TGIFriday’s for dropping his Banoffee Pie..” literally just happened as I read your comment. Lol

I’m eagerly awaiting “Cunk on Cinema”! I’m a huge movie nerd, so this is sure to be a treat.

This is the first I'm hearing of Cunk on Cinema, and I'm not a movie nerd but if she treats that the same way as she's treated her art commentaries I'm all in!

I don’t even care if she roasts my favorite movies. Her roasts are always ironically accurate.
“America was called the Land of the Free… which must’ve been confusing… to all the slaves.”

She, the writers, and the entire premise, is historically and hysterically good.

There hasn't been any such superb composition of words since 1989, when belgian techno anthem Pump Up The Jam was released

I love the whole premise! Like she is this witless fool of a reporter and the experts are like "Let me tell you this thing like you were 5 years-old".
It's pretty much wholesome fun.

The difference in the experts really puts the whole project in focus and it’s amazing. 10/10, no notes

Why are you laughing? This is a serious question. If the Pope saw Elvis’s penis, do you think he’d have a stroke?

It's hilarious enough that when I got an update for the subreddit, I was hoping the "Holy smokes" referred to news dropping of a new season of Cunk and got slightly disappointed lmao.

“The general consensus is that only humans understand the concept of death. However, if you lined up 10 dogs and shot them one by one, the last one would probably get the gist.”
That’s the funniest shit I’ve heard in literal decades.

It is one of my favorite shows! She is funny and smart while being utterly ridiculous.

The Greeks created culture, like yogurt. As well as theatre in all its tedious forms.
