Our good friend Alec Owen (with whom we enjoyed eating ridiculous things) just launched a new internet sketch video group.  They are called Friends of the Family, and my verdict is that they are delightful!

My favorite sketch of theirs is called “The Great Burden,” and is posted below for your viewing pleasure:

So rarely does a minute-long setup pay off this well.

Way to go, Friends of the Family! Welcome to the internet, where you will most certainly create many funny things!

If there’s one rule of comedy that every comedian can agree upon, it’s that bears are incredibly funny.

You want proof? Take a look at Big Brown Beautiful Bear from sketch comedy troupe, Onesie. I dare you  not to get the song stuck in your head:

When you’re done, take a look at Tremendosaur’s very own bear sketch. I can promise you now that it certainly won’t be the last…

Thanks to everyone who’s been digging our McCain/Palpatine Short! We’ve gotten a number of requests about the poster at the end of the vid, so I thought I’d upload it here for your downloading pleasure.

Please use it wherever and whenever you like, as long as you attribute it to Tremendosaur.com!

My favorite part is how it looks like Hillary is squinting to more accurately aim her blaster rifle.

You know, with the number of jabs Sarah Palin is taking from the media, I almost feel bad for her…that is, I would feel bad for her if there wasn’t such a scarily distinct possibility that she could become our next president, despite being completely underqualified.

Luckily, she proves to be better comedic gold than (vice-) presidential material, and this College Humor video capitalizes on it perfectly:

Even though you just saw Oops! All Lansburys pop up on our site a week ago, we’ve been working on it for well over a year!

That’s right, I’ve personally spent hours poring over ‘getting the right creepy clown design’ and wondering ‘just how many Angela Lansbury corpses do we need in that shot?’

Under normal circumstances, you (the internet public), would never get to see the preliminary artwork…but we thought it might be cool to share some of the designs, sketches, and storyboards that our talented friends contributed!

Check it out after the jump!

Tremendosaur’s friend, Heather Campbell, posted an awesome Sarah Palin rap on funny-or-die a few days ago.

Lucky for you, we’re embedding it RIGHT HERE for your personal viewing pleasure. Enjoy it in all its anti-Polar Beary goodness:

Well, there certainly has been a lot going on since McCain surprised everyone and named Gov. Palin as his vice presidential nominee.

I’ve been having a hard time collecting my thoughts on how ridiculous a pick Gov. Palin is.  I’ve been glued to the news ever since news came out, trying to learn everything I can about this woman, and watching the trainwreck unfold.  It’s a lot to handle.  I could go on and on about what I’ve learned, after all - I’ve read what all the pundits have to say (both Democratic, and Republican), but our friend Clay just showed me the most accurate response of all.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the most accurate analysis of John McCain’s vice presidential choice of Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin:

You know it’s a serious issue, because Diddy can’t even keep spinning around the whole time.  Halfway through he has to stop spinning, because shit is too real.

Vote or die, guys.  Vote or die.
