When my MIL asked how he could've gotten scratched there my husband and I, thinking the same thing, reenacted the counter scene simultaneously and then we started laughing hysterically. She thought we were crazy 🤣🤣 Even funnier, the baby's name is Bryce and I just realized Fred is called Bryce in this skit!

One of my all time favorite Portlandia skits! Season 1 was transcendent!

I think I just found the inspo for the funniest part of this skit that I laughed at some many times...that cactus in the eyes kitchen scene. I was just watching Bob Newhart and in Season 5 Episode 19, Howard does something so similar at around 14 minutes in, that I feel nearly sure that Fred saw that at some point and inspired this scene. I guess there's nothing new under the sun lol. Still Fred's version is much funnier.

I loved this... I feel socially acceptable now.

Smashing of the Temples that would be a sick band name

PUT A BIRD ON ITT!

Dude I'd love to see a behind the scenes. I have a hard time thinking Aubrey didn't bust out laughing every 5 seconds

He Home Alone'd himself on his own counter.

"Otherwise, like I said"...slap, slap, splat, slap...IDK why that's so damn funny but Im crying 😂.

Its fun to see the different couples Fred & Carrie play. Dave & Kath are the active types, self-serious, compulsive, really annoying. Peter & Nance are a little simple, yet they enjoy each other the most. Bryce & Lisa are stylish accessories to each other's empty existence. Vince & Jacqueline are, simply put, The Weirdos. Which is funny because it implies the other couples are not weird at all.

2:37 - 2:43 LOL

ILMS when Carrie yells "Brace" like they haven't rehearsed this

Fred and Carrie have a great ability to make you hate every character the make.

Aubrey Plaza plays the straight normal role. Amazeballs.

My two new fav parts are when Fred needs to explain why he's opening door (cause surely she can't fit through that little wrought iron covered peep-hole) and that, at the end of tour, Carrie doesn't seem to want Audrey to get out of the tub just yet. So relieved I'm not alone in finding this kind of stuff entertaining as hell!
