The Alternative [2023 Remake]

I don't know if I like the original or the remake better yet. But I did enjoy this one at least. I love loading ready run sketches wish we could have more

The Above is a really good writer.

Intense levels of flashback activated!! I can remember the original like it was yesterday, but would love a comparison vid. (I wonder if I can find my S1 DVDs around if I have a look for them...) Enjoyable romp down memory lane!

20 years and James still can't get the donut. Also, oh no, that was 20 years ago...... oh no........

Idk if Matt is going for a new look, but I definitely said “Alex looks off…”

Remake for the remake god!

I agree with Nelson's potato chip preferences. Although salt and vinegar is my summer choice.

Something about Matt's answer about stuff sticking to the wall really, really got me.

Look mom! I'm Engaging!

"You shouldn't be down here" took the breath out of me.

Wonderful.

My weatherman is also named Bort

:)

Kathleen's allergy list is so painfully funny because it's only slightly exaggerated compared to my real life. And Graham and Paul's reactions are honestly a lot more reasonable than most nurses and doctors are. Seriously, I have to start with disclaimers like, "Buckle up, it's long," for both my allergy and medication lists.

Graham's, "You shouldn't be down here," was TOP NOTCH. Occasionally a nurse has that kind of response at the end of my lists, like, "You weren't kidding." Once someone asked, "How do you live?" Kathleen's just cheerful energy about, yeah everything wants to kill me is just chef's kiss realism.

"Everyone's 'allergic' to arsenic Kathleen"

To paraphrase Commodore Hustle 😂

When Kathleen said she was allergic to cats, I was so hoping Paul would have asked, "But don't you have five cats?"

I skipped a survey to get to this vídeo, and I'd do it again!

Ooo new writer! Is "The Above" IN Loading Ready Run?

“It depends” just KILLED me! Perfection throughout!

I just kind of want to know how Matt felt about the experience of wearing Graham's glasses. Do they have similar prescriptions or did it suck?

the thing i noticed most is they have such good lighting instruments now

"It's the fourth door on the left."
bonk
"...left."

Production quality is through the roof.

Holy crap...door hinge 😂

I love sketches by The Above, definitely my favourite writer!

Fantastic way to update the punchline.

That potato chip answer was a revelation. I also liked how you answered the tootsie pop question. Very good.

Ketchup chip!? CANUCKS

...Oh my god, that DOES rhyme with orange!!

"It depends" is a criminally underrated joke here. I love it.

I absolutely expected that stinger to be a callback to the "that's a double negative" crapshot

Pak Chooie Unf

I hope James eventually got a donut

Are they jumping dimensions, like in “The Feeling” Crapshot?

"Led Zeppelin - actually probably most blimps" is my favorite joke in this

"Does is smell like donuts in here?" got me good

Omg I can't believe it's the return of fan favourite sketch writer The Above!

This sketch is amazing, thank you for remaking!

The Above did an excellent job writing this one. I hope to see more from them in the future.

Dakron!!!!!!!!!!!!

The fridge question and follow up was my favorite.

"... then you should store your perishables in it." is HILARIOUS!
