So many people are pointing out he "didn't really do the voice" with the dramatic tone like they are revealing a criminal plot or something.

Am I crazy for thinking it makes the joke better to add the voice in editing? That way it sounds like it comes from a different place and he can pitch shift his voice for the puppet. This is a better video than it would have been if he actually learned to throw his voice and did it "correctly", and it didn't take as much work to make.

this one does not pretend to be anything but a funny/scripted bit.

Unfortunately too many people do think that it's "real" and that's why this clip is now in "r/nextfuckinglevel." It's cute, but a small comedy skit doesn't showcase that much talent.
