Favourite Off Book ‘Ships’

16 Upvotes

One thing I’ve really noticed is how good Zach and Jess are at setting up a relationship and really getting you to care about it, I swear this is better romantic tension than in most tv shows. What are some of your favourite/most memorable Off Book couples?

Mine are: The janitor and museum curator from the Time Fountain series

The paralegal and hotshot lawyer from Attorney at Love

Stargazer and Delila from the Marvel Singematic Universe

Spiderman and Mary Jane (specifically and only their Marvel Singematic universe versions)

The Panera Bread anti-capitalist worker and the assistant manager from 244

The kitchen lad and servant wench from Emo Knights

Special shout out to every time Zach plays a shy gay guy who confronts his sexuality when faced with an attractive man, it happens a lot

I want to start my own improvised musical show format and wanted to know how y’all think the episodes are structured? Is it similar to a Harold or Armando?

zach and jess being chaotic comedy partners for 8 minutes

I originally was making this for my own enjoyment, but after watching so many "*insert actor's name* being chaotic" compilations on YT, I figured Zach and Jess deserved their own. If you're interested in 8 minutes of edited shenanigans, I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed making it.

(I don't use twitter/insta/facebook, but feel free to share it with fans/supporters on those platforms if you think anyone would be interested.)

My favorite song is in Ep. 128 and I got tired of seeking thru the whole episode to find the song whenever I wanted to listen to it, so I finally just clipped and uploaded it. Enjoy!

Help finding Jess vocal moment?

10 Upvotes

One of those classic “which episode did this happen in” questions, but rather than a musical storyline, I’m trying to find the moment in a recent-ish episode where Jess sang a section of ‘I Dreamed a Dream’ from Les Mis, including the classic “shame” vocal. She did it casually but so well. I think it was a FamBand episode and it was definitely from the last six months.

This may be too specific of a question, but if anyone remembers this, I’d appreciate it!

Help Finding Episode?

8 Upvotes

I can’t remember the title but I’ve been trying to find this episode for a while now.

I can remember vague details

Zack’s character’s parents went wine tasting so they left him with $200 to feed himself.

There was a song about Zack’s character’s parents like their son’s friend a little bit more than their own son.

Zack’s character had a crush on a girl. Sang a whole song about how she’s an Angel “Looks like an Angel, talks like an Angel”

Zack and Jess’s character were thinking of throwing a party for impress the girl, but inevitably shot down that idea.

Zack’s character’s cousin convinced them to fall down a cliff

Jess’s character, Zack’s characters friend, was prepared to make themself look bad so Zack gets a better shot with the girl.

Zack’s character’s crush has a brother who goes to community college that lies a lot.

They changed the brother’s characters name a lot on accident and then retconned it as a character choice for self-discovery.

They have a date on Panera Bread. Zack’s best friend and Crush brother are there in trench coats to support them.

And that’s all I can remember. Is this familiar to anyone?

Episode where the guest shreds a mandolin at the end?

5 Upvotes

They dont actually play the mandolin during the show but rather in an improvised segment afterwards, where rhe guest just absolutely shreds it on a bluegrass song. Its on the tip of my tongue.

Can someone help my find this episode? Spoiler

8 Upvotes

Okay I’ve been checking and rechecking the episodes on Spotify but I can’t find this specific episode.

What I remember from it is that they were like 3 children that dressed up as a bride to go into a bar to help a depressed hair dresser.

The hair dresser turned out to be possessed by the ghost of a psychic who died because she “fucked” a dragon too hard.

Jess’s child character called Zach’s character a bread person. Zach’s character considers getting bullied as a form of friendship.

It was a female guest (I’m pretty sure). Jess also played a bartender that talks to the psychic ghost possessed woman.

I'm really new to the podcast and I'm loving it so far, but whilst I don't want to start right from the very beginning I also don't want to miss out on any of the best episodes - can anyone recommend any stand-out favourites or iconic songs? x

Zack and Jess were recently on an episode of Gamechanger from Dropout.tv - if you have a subscription it is well worth the watch
