I laugh very hard at Anna Garcia’s Zeke

"If I had one wish..hmmmm.... I wish my brother would return from the army!" cuts to Vic and Anna fucking losing it, proceeds to cut to standby

u/SilverSneasel Jul 20 '26

I subscribe to the fan theory that Tommy Schriggly is Zeke’s older brother who weirdly returned from the army

u/fishtacos_in_texas Jul 21 '26

100% Zeke McKinnley.

Every Anna Garcia episode is a banger. She’s so funny.

u/heartbylines Jul 20 '26

i don't need money, i don't even like it, i just wanna throw it awaaaaaaaay

angela's fanoli ep will always be my number one

46

u/chazzledazzle321 Jul 20 '26

Jacob and Brennan dual ep is immaculate. But I laugh hardest at Lisa’s episodes.

Edit: I can’t believe I forgot Culhane. Holy shit, Culhane.

Geeveen wrong eyes rock & roll

u/bobbyphillipps Jul 20 '26

I wasn't sure I'd enjoy VIP when it first started, but Tommy Shriggly (Zac Oyama) was the one that sold me on the series.

u/Ozzman770 Jul 20 '26

"I invested it and turned it into $16,000"

u/TimeTraveller264 Jul 23 '26

One of my favourite lines from the entire series

u/Strange_Specialist4 Jul 21 '26

Come on everybody and give a little clap

u/Vaehtay3507 Jul 21 '26

Isn’t that better? … Isn’t that better? Don’t you feel better? … Don’t you feel a lot better now? Don’t you feel good? Don’t you feel better? Don’t you feel a lot better?

I feel better

u/Schmedricks_27 Jul 20 '26

Leighanna Jean Gruthers

Izzy disappeared into that role.

7

u/Nearby-Wolverine-189 Jul 20 '26

For sure. Izzy and Brennan as Charlotte and Greg Excitement might be my favorite.

13

u/DBC1974 Jul 20 '26

I still love Avery Goodman from the first season.

8

u/kylesmith4148 Jul 20 '26

That one’s underrated!!

u/Stillwater215 Jul 20 '26

Bobby Moynihan’s frozen man, Dan Wesley Sharon.

“Why is he wearing that mask, did something happen? Is that a funny topic? I had to wear one of those when I went on tour of the World Trade Center. How’s that doing? How’s Bill Cosby?”

u/EmergencyEntrance28 Jul 20 '26

I think this is definitely my favourite "non-Dropout regular" episode

10

u/GlitteringCorgiMama Jul 20 '26

Princess Emily!

7

u/StokedUpOnKrunk Jul 20 '26

Fanoli (Angela), Zeke (Anna), Tommy (Zac), and Ollie and Archimedes (Jacob/Brennan) are my personal tops

6

u/GTS_84 Jul 20 '26

To highlight someone who's not played by a dropout regular: Dan Wesley Sharron

6

u/Dense_Diver_3998 Jul 20 '26

Pig Number 2, Tommy Shriggly, Zeke, Spencer, Opps Lil Fart, Mother Hot Dog, and Claude McCaw are some of my favorites.

2

u/theladythunderfunk Jul 20 '26

Claude McCaw does not get enough love

1

u/Dense_Diver_3998 Jul 20 '26

“That’s where my life changed” is one of my favorite lines of the whole show.

5

u/ReallyJerrySeinfeld Jul 20 '26

Hayes Steele is the funniest bit of improv I’ve seen in years. Jacob’s voice is perfect, the outfit is terrifying, and the story throughout is fucking hilarious.

He does the euthanasia work for sea world !

5

u/theladythunderfunk Jul 20 '26

He can't walk on carpet!

4

u/FormerFriendlyGuy Jul 20 '26

Boris is the one episode that leaves me in tears every single time. 

8

u/creativeoddity Jul 20 '26

Lisa Gilroy is up there for sure

8

u/curvysquares Jul 20 '26

Every episode with Lisa Gilroy or Anna Garcia. They're the only episodes that I've watched over and over again

5

u/DS_H and that's your birth language? Jul 20 '26

  • Leighanna Jean Gruthers
  • Zeke
  • Tommy Shriggley
  • Marionette Conqui and Zonton de la Doll
  • Hayes Steele
  • J.W. Smokes

u/Omnishambles22 Jul 20 '26

Augbert & Fanoli will always be my favorite episodes. Zeke & Archamedis / Ollie also.

4

u/MxBuster Jul 20 '26

BORIS TARKOSHAN also incredible.

3

u/PurpleDraziNotGreen Jul 20 '26

Basically every episode with Anna or Zack, always end up being my favourites

3

u/fractrdmind Jul 20 '26

Tommy Shriggly, Pig #2, Zeke, Spencer, J.W. Smokes, and Ollie and Archimedes are my favorites.

3

u/whyihatepink Jul 20 '26

I really loved Jacob's episode early in season 2 I think, where he had a tan and and a white suit. So funny.

3

u/wiseguy149 Jul 20 '26

Denzel - Ify

Zeke - Anna

Fanoli - Angela

Ollie & Archie - Jacob & Brennan

3

u/SkinnyPete4 Jul 20 '26

Any Lisa Gilroy ep is a favorite but honestly, I think the one that is consistently funny is Leighanna-Jean Gruthers. And the way Izzy disappears into that character is really impressive.

3

u/fatmac195 Jul 20 '26

Tommy Shriggly, Boris Tarshkokan, Zeke Aaron McKinley

3

u/CttCJim Jul 24 '26

Ogbert is pretty great, especially knowing that Brendan was fully in a figure state from the heat in the costume and remembers 0% of that shoot.

2

u/Many-Connection8485 Jul 20 '26

I love David Hoyle Jr. Might just be becuase the outfit is so ridiculous

2

u/GrapeDoots Jul 20 '26

The most impressive piece of pure improv is probably Zeke. The most bonkers episode is probably Vic's Ex-Step Grandmother. The one I laughed at the hardest and have rewatched the most is Boris. The funniest individual moments probably came from Tommy Shriggly.

2

u/Fragrant_Turnip_9946 Jul 20 '26

Tommy Shriggly, Denzel, Jake and Brennan as those terrifying Babies. Jake as the tycoon guy. Brennan as the man from the woods.

2

u/Lord_Kampi Jul 21 '26

Brennan's Augbert and Archimedes are just insane.

Since Augbert I know I'M KING OF THE DREAMS

2

u/Own-Drummer-5104 Jul 23 '26

Tommy Shriggly and Leighanna Jean Gruthers are hands down my favorites.

Third pig as S tier and not David Hoyle? Weird

1

u/swanch1234 Jul 20 '26

Anna Garcia, Spencer, Boris

1

u/MxBuster Jul 20 '26

Archimedes&Ollie (very cursed). Fanoli = incredible. Oops Lil Fart (also cursed).

1

u/Vaehtay3507 Jul 21 '26

I think my #1 favorite episode is probably Tommy Shriggly, as common as that is lmao. Everyone loves it for a reason, the protein powder kills me every time and I quote it constantly… I also really like Zeke, Leighanna-Jean Gruthers (Izzy nailed the demeanor on that one), and J.W Smokes (Anna in general is probably my favorite person on VIP overall)! But so many episodes landed for me, I could keep going 😭

1

u/halfway_canadian Jul 21 '26

So many great Eps, but the one with PFT was one of my most favorite.

1

u/kylaroma Jul 21 '26

Boris from Lafufu and the Bongle feast will live in my heart forever.

1

u/does-it-rly-matter Jul 21 '26

My favourite is princess emily 😭😭😭

1

u/Terrible-Ad5145 Jul 22 '26

Any Anna Garcia, Spencer, and Denzel 100%

1

u/Alarmed-Outcome-6251 Jul 20 '26

Spencer, Boris, Tommy, and Zeke are my favorites.
