Of course, being a comedy, almost everything can make you laugh, but a few scenes in particular stand out:


  • The entire scene with "James" and the owl caller, from the caller just stealing the scene with her long story, to Ben's awkward facial expressions as she kept talking, to the owl being immediately killed at the end.
  • One skit involved Robby getting massaged by a character voiced by a caller, though the person actually massaging him in the scene was Ben. With each cut-away from the caller, Ben was doing something different, from chopping him, to tussling his hair, to messing with his face, to just keeping his hands hovering over Robby's shoulders. And Robby rolled with it like a champ.
  • Alan wasn't able to make it to Episode 2, but they wanted him at the end, in a scene with the other Wham City members present. What did they do? Photoshop a still-image of Alan and place it into the scene, sitting with the others, immobile and ever-conspicuous.
  • One skit is just a woman giving birth. Said woman is played by Alan. Everyone spends the scene screaming and overacting, until the baby comes out...and the baby, played by Ben, tries to slide back into the womb. The caller then appears at the end for all of a second, and then the scene ends.
  • In "Spooky Fog", Ben gets scammed by a caller playing the role of a Phony Psychic. He's told to pay an absurd amount of money, bury and eat his dead dog, quit his job...and no, he cannot see his deck of cards to confirm what's being said. The talk is going over-time, and he needs to pay another $75.
  • All of "Slightly Too Hot" was pretty silly, due to the acting of Ben, Alan, and Robby in their little courtroom drama...but Alan stole the show when he proposed to Judge Ben in the middle of his cross-examination, asking "Can judge marry lawyer?" and causing all three of them to break character and laugh for a good few seconds.
  • "Fire" had a lot of moments where the cast just went off the rails and created a lot hilarity:
    • In a major moment of Black Comedy, Alan's "Farmer" character threw his helpless animal friends into the fire, but only after describing wanting to do some very perverted acts with them. With upbeat, quirky music in the background.
    • Cricket, playing a cross between a Star Trek captain and a bearded sailor, had a lot of fun with their caller. Not only did she try to pry into his love life, she also declared herself his "Captain Dad" and boasted about how she'd be getting laid on the ship they were tracking. The caller then mentioned "Lieutenant Mom", getting her annoyed as she didn't want to think about his mother while she was getting laid. As this was happening, their ship was slowly catching on fire, and neither of them notice.
    • Ben spent an entire scene just describing a Smallville episode to his caller and getting frustrated when she couldn't guess specific twists like he wanted her to...while, for some reason, they were playing Frodo and Gandalf.
    • Alan and Robby played two brothers in a burning car with their mother, in another scene full of Black Comedy. They flip-flopped between praising and shouting at their mother, who casually talked about getting some weed brownies and killing their father with a shovel- which they were very happy about, as they spend the first few seconds trying to get her to divorce them.
