PETITION FOR WEIRD AND/OR WONDERFUL WORLD SEASON 3
Petition for the return of Ryan's moustache for season 3
weird and/or wonderful world but it’s just shane and ryan going around their neighborhoods bc of the virus
kikinnamon and we’d all watch every episode
bro how we are literally on lock down lmao
no, they should stay the fuck at home so they dont spread the virus
"Don't turn your back on the ostrich."
"Is it a sign of disrespect?"
"No. But they'll steal your hat."
they will. ask my dad.
They'll steal anything, even dishwater.
They stole my laundry detergent.
They stole my will to live
Lmaoo this reply thread
These two shamelessly enjoying fun and touristy stuff is so cute
Yeah they are pretty nice. Love this show and Thier paranormal Investigations
@Emily Barclay because of Shane. ;P the non believer, although evidence
U mean SHANElessly
@@nicolemarietarroza I WAS GONNa SAY THAT
"well, butter my butt and call me a biscuit"
Shane: an ostrich almost killed Johnny Cash
Chelsea: * stares him dead in the eyes * *how*
i'm pretty sure she's looking for a way to make murder look like an ostrich attack and honestly, good for her
@@olakowalczewska4946 We have to stan.
Honestly she was the funniest part of this ep, we stan a sarcastic gal
Hahaha she's the worst
she truly didnt give a fuck if that information was in her life or not
Just wanted to say I love this series. Too many people try to be cynical or edgy, but you guys are out here enjoying things enthusiastically. Would love another season!
Unironic pure joy. We’re here for it.
Maybe after the pandemic it'll have a new season like Unsolved. Hopefully.
I agree. Their joy and enthusiasm is infectious and this show never fails to cheer me up because of it!
Watching these guys, makes me want to live to the fullest! 🥹🤙🏼
i know this is the ghoul boys but honestly there's something so wholesome and healing about watching them going around being very nice and polite to people and joking around with each other...
Amen! Let’s turn the tide to this type of content!
I love this comment 💕
I feel the same way. I like buzzfeed unsliced but I was always kind of like...I sort of don’t want to hear about all of this tragic stuff but I’ll put up with it because I love these boys!
@@FirstnameLastName-xd1gc unsliced 😂😂😂😂 is that about eating tourist foods, murders, or both? 🤔
@@fm3227 lmao
I love the coffee lady matching shane and ryans energy with that deadpan humor
I really really hope you meant Deadpool. That would be fantastic.
@@chelseahewitt7612 I did not
@@chelseahewitt7612 oh shit it’s the chelsea
Yeah she was spot on fab’!!
@@chelseahewitt7612 wait its the coffee lady?
I feel like this series is just Shane being Ryan's disgraced professor/scientist dad who kidnapped him & is now just taking him on a fun road trip whilst being chased by the police.
This series is Back To The Future😂
you ain't wrong fellow watcher
If that was a show/movie I would watch the HELL out of that XD
Kinda sounds like a family friendly version of Rick & Morty - love it!
His friend, who’s, you know, a disgraced nuclear physicist.
shane, in unsolved: wow i’d love to know the mayor
shane now: *knows the mayor*

Which episode was that?
@@somethingstupid699 i think it was the sam and marilyn shepard one
@@peachproblem2466 was literally just thinking about this lmfao
Amazing callback
I love the pancake man.
“Be adventurous” he knew they were going to suffer lmao
He has Vincent Price vibes.
Emily Barclay those guys always tell the best stories
That’s not the first time he’s done that.
Messing with tourists is probably his favorite activity
The people in this town have a very dry sense of humour, and I love it.
Thx :)
Thats danish humor :) im from denmark and that is exactly the kind of humor we have here. So they got that right in that town :)
@@stine-kroll but it’s in America?
@@overland1178 yeah but it was founded by danes? after generations of danes in the town some things stick even though it's not in denmark. :)

Ryan: who’s Hans Christian Andersen?
Shane: *WHO’S HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN?* Ryan, the Little Mermaid!
😂
"This guy's the scribe?!"
*Andersen :)
Me, having even watched the musical about Hans Christian Anderson: 😲
I be like... "SNOW QUEEN"!!!
This show feels like one of be shown in social studies as a part of “world history” that the teacher chose based off the title
I love this comment omg
This reminds me of them old pbs kids history shows they shown at school rather for science or history or math it has the same upbeat feel down to the transition
If it was I probably wouldn't have slept through social studies.
Melissa McConnell lol No joke! I would’ve stayed awake for ALL classes if these two doofs were involved.😜🤓😄
I would LOVE it if teachers did this.
“IT’S THE MAYOR!” Was just such a wholesome moment that I felt like I was watching a children’s show
i love chelsea. she seemed like it was the end of her shift and someone threw it at her last minute when she was supposed to go home 😂
ryan slowly smirking: "lets go until I pass out, until the light leaves my eyes"
shop owner: *if I back away slowly enough I might be able to get out of this*
I hope you get more likes because I passed out laughing at this comment!
@@sunriseinthennight thank u hahha💗
Ryan has the correct mindset of eating æbleskiver. You don’t just have a few as a dessert, you eat that as your full dinner. You keep piling those balls onto your plate and you only stop eating when having another bite makes you wanna throw up.
“They look like dinosaur legs, but sort of sexy dinosaur legs” - Shane Madej 2020
aka things no one should ever get away with saying
Who's shane
It’s the guy that said that
@@maycold2011 oh fr
Why are we all ignoring Ryan’s Velociraptor impression?? Pure talent was exhibited in that moment
i came for this comment
It was a very good impression, its like his "moved chair" impression from Too Many Spirits season 2
literally scrolled down for this
Honestly just been binge watching these as I didn't realize they do these and I scrolled down JUST to find this comment. That impression was amazing.
i was gonna say
I’d trust Jeffery, the pancake man, with my life
Same here
One of few men I trust
He radiates the same energy as the soda pop sir
Truly the Mr. Rogers of Solvang.
No!!! I live here he’s a horrible person 😭😭😭
Whoever edits this show has peak humor. The drama when Shane is talking about the Jonny Cash v. Ostrich fight, Ryan's various poses by the little mermaid statue, intense music over the ostrich feeding frenzy, etc.
my favorite one was when they were in the moke
jeff saying “be adventurous” brought me a huge amount of serotonin, not sure why.
Same here, lol
Same
I've eaten a lot of Aebleskivers so I knew they were in trouble.
GOT 'EM!
Jeff definitely sounds a little naughty
I love that on unsolved Ryan is the normal contained one and Shane is chaotic enough to be dubbed a demon, but on this show Shane is the normal human and Ryan is out there saying shit like "there are snakes on the walls in London" out of nowhere
That's why they are prefect for each other
I absolutely love that in Watcher, you get to see the crew. Whenever I see a camera person, the sound guy, or Brittney in the back seat, I'm reminded it's all team effort. Thank you for acknowledging that.
i really love how off-put most people they interview are.
Why are you buying coffee in my coffee shop on a 95 degree day?
recoil53 *85 degree day. But I love her humour lmao. Southern California weather still isn’t that hot imo. Coming from the humid south, I drink hot coffee in that weather myself.
@@Iceechibi I remember living in the south. Filling up with a heavy breakfast like biscuits and gravy and then heading out.
recoil53 Its so yummy, but so bad for you at the same time xD
@@Iceechibi And stays with you on those hot, humid days.
No one:
Absolutely no one:
Ryan: WERE THERE BODIES IN THE WALL?
He still hasn’t gotten over wallman
That’s the ghoul boy I know 😌
Best part is this was before Are You Scared so Ryan just seems to be a fan of bodies in walls 👀
As he wears cowboy hat
Umm... Was it bad that was my assumption as well until the mayor clarified?
Ryan’s going to move in, demand the top house, and force the mayor to be one of his servants.
but the mayor need not worry, his outfit is compt.
Just another day for Ricky goldsworth
Shane: Not From Here
Ryan: Little Pastry Piggy
Gotta love that energy
😩❤️
I’m both
Came straight to the comments to make sure it was acknowledged lol
I think this is the weirdest vibe Ryan has ever given off
I’m here for it.
Yes
Living for it
yes
Yes
I love the way the restaurant owner talks. He’s like a character in a movie.
He sounded like someone on rick and morty haha
just wish he knew how to pronounce ableskiver
@@johanvajse8410 or that he wouldn't lie about that whole Viking thing 🤔 æbleskiver are from the 1800s.
they all seem to speak like that lol like overly nonchalant and slightly sarcastic th

Shane: Beautiful babies 🥰
with Shane shoving his head into the mouths of said ostriches 🤣
“There’s snakes in the walls in London”
Shane and the Mayor: We are confusion
me, a person who lives in london: I am confusion
no snakes up in here, sorry.
Isaac Freeman LOOK FOR THEM! 🐍

"You're probably wondering how we get em round"
Shane: how do you get them round?
"Good question" *then :D at the camera*
When?

that was so cute lmfao
love it! same technique as with takoyaki :)

Shane: "A few Mocals?" 😀😀
Ryan: *pure joy*
Coffee lady: *audible pain*
If I ever go to America I’m going here just for the pure weirdness of knowing I’m not in Denmark(where I live) but being surrounded by Danish things
Like walking into the twilight zone
Towns like that exist all over. We have one here in Washington state called Leavenworth where the whole appeal is it's designed like a little Germanic town. It's great around the holidays.
@@bishielurfer can confirm about Leavenworth! It's pretty much like Christmas all year round there, ngl.
Yea we went to andersonville and it was quite odd haha, you know coming from Sweden and all, but it was fun
I live there
“If I were an ostrich “ are you telling me Shane ISNT an ostrich???
Hyena With Gun he’s an emu
great username and pfp bro
Nah man he's got underworld connections

@@grey867 are you trying to imply that ostriches and emus aren't demons?
the boys' energy has reached chaotic new levels, from ryan making velociraptor noises to shane wanting his fingers bitten off by an ostrich all the way to both of them shirtless
Ryan trying to start a bit: "Are you trying to wine and dine me?"
Shane having none of it: "No i'm trying to wine and dine myself"
dkshd i love them
When he said "this is what loving in a small town is like" I was just thinking about how not only do I know the mayor of my town but he's my dad
You’re like a prince
Or a princess in moana terms
No One:
Ryan: There are snakes in the walls of London; nice to meet you
Also no one:
Shane: Ostriches tore Johnny Cash's chest open; thanks for the coffee
hahaha I’m tearing up 😂
"Bakery-riddled streets." If this place survives Covid and I make it out alive, I"m going to go there and stuff my face until until I, indeed, can't breathe anymore.
Dude, same. I'm watching this series to plan my future trip to the U. S.
As someone who lives in Solvang, I can confirm: *slaps side of solvang* you would not believe how many bakeries you can fit in this bad boy
@@spacehydras LOL!!!
I wonder if they take ebt 🙈
@@spacehydras ooh, which bakeries would you recommend?
This series is such a great juxtaposition to the Buzzfeed Unsolved series. The joy and glee Shane and Ryan have here compared to Ryan constantly being on the verge of a panic attack and Shane taunting the shit out of ghosts and demons.
Couldn’t agree more
Shane: Are they (æbleskiver) light enough that you can just shove a whole one in there ?-
Me a Dane: Nope, no they're not.
Shane: or do you recommend bites?
Me a Dane: Yes! bites for goodness sake.
Jeffrey the pastry chef: Be adventurous.
Me a Dane: Oh no, what have you done!
*Ryan and Shane already almost choking on æbleskive, regretting their decision*
I never even knew this town existed! It's definitely weird and wonderful to now know that it does 😁
Well, Ryan was man enough to take the 2nd ball and shove it into his mouth whole lmaoo
This is my favorite place to go!! Growing up I used to go here multiple times a year! It's so cute and fun, and there are many more shops that the boys could have gone in but that's totally okay. I highly recommend that people visit this town and go in as many shops as they can!!
Is this a regional thing? Idk about every other Dane, but i’ve always just thought that shoving an entire æbleskive into ones mouth was a normal thing? Perhaps æbleskive-eating is a spectrum lol
Reminds me of the meatball guy from Too Many Spirits
Ryan: *breathes*
Shane: "wHeN i WaS iN cOpEnHaGeN"
The girl from the coffee shop sounded so unimpressed by everything they said, I'm laughing so hard
I loved her deadpan reaction to Shane and Ryan's everything
I lived for her energy 🙌🏽
"Oh yeah, a nice cup of coffee on an 85 degree day" ACK-
Lol shes the only one who didnt seem entirely annoyed by their presence but maybe that's just me knowing half the people and knowing they were prolly like ugh fuck gotta go put on my charming face
I love her lmaoo
Shane: you could lie to your friends that you’re in Copenhagen.
Ryan: *narrows eyes suspiciously*
I like how the episode ends with Ryan straight threatening the mayor
You mean Ricky Goldsworth
HAHAHAH
This episode gave me some strong rom-com energy, and frankly, I'm here for it.
The music while they're drinking wine really is something
@@MegaJessylynn THE AMBIANCE
Said it before, will say it again- Shane looks like SUCH a DAD. That one dad who's loud, extremely punny and mildly embarrassing but super fun on family vacations
ThisIsItAashi Such a Daddy, a sexy Daddy...

@@yardwolves2773 no

He actually looks a lot like my dad when he was younger hahah
"Any advice for Ostrichland?"
"Don't blink. Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. They are fast, faster than you could believe. Don't turn your back, don't look away and don't blink. Good luck."
Ryan in this outfit and with that southern accent gives me the same vibes as that "I wanna be a cowboy, baby" vine
We’re just gonna breeze by the fact that the mayor was able to buy a house at 18? Like sure it was a fixer upper/problem house and I know nothing about west coast real estate but HOW?
As someone from Cali, I have no idea how he managed to afford that. Housing and water are the two most expensive things in the state, pretty much.
the previous owners probably listed the house really low due to all the issues the mayor said there were
No ur right I’m like 2 hours from Solvang and this whole area is wildly expensive :,) I need this man’s day job
Cindy T. I’m not sure how actually old he is, but he could be in his mid-30s now. I know Cali houses have always been expensive, but like he said, he had to do a LOT of work on it, so I imagine he was able to get it really cheap (by Cali standards). I’m currently living in a fixer-upper from the 60s, closed last year on it for around 70k, 24 y/o and married, but I live in MS, so different realty market. My house has had a lot of issues that I’ve been slowly working on, but the equity had gone up significantly. It’s possible, just not probable as we all know housing prices are ridiculous.
I am from Solvang, it is EXPENSIVE to live here.
Ryan: I love to eat until I can’t BREATHE anymore
Shane: It’s... a problem
Ryan: IT’S NOT
**repeat lil quotes with drinking**
LMAO
Ryan has eating AND drinking problems
They knew it sounded worse the second time, but they'd already committed to carrying out the bit xD
ryan is weird and or wonderful! (i mean how can just a single man be like this, wow the way he ate those dane pancakes, only heroes do that 😂😂)
I can't NOT hear this as if the professor were narrating. Imagining him eating a pastry as big as his little head amuses me.
I really didn’t expect Chelsea to steal the show like that I love how she matched their energy but with sarcasm instead 😂
ostriches: exist
ryan and shane: let's take our shirts off
I came to the comments looking for a comment about that. 😂
I feel like this town would be any cottagecore lesbian’s dream
💖💖💖💖
FACTS
as a cottagecore lesbian, i can confirm
It sure is! Ryan and Shane didn't even touch on all the antique stores in Solvang.
@@niteflitetheknitter i would love to see what kinds of things they sell there.
I feel like "it's a proble-IT'S NOT" is meme-ish enough to at least sell some stickers in the Watcher shop.
Everyone: Two guys, chillin in a hot tub
Me, an intellectual: Two blokes on a moke
Shane: sees ostriches
“ahhhh, my kind”
Ostriches are the giraffes of birds and Shane is the ostrich of people
*Next week on Weird Wonderful World:* Ryan jousts against the mayor on an ostrich to win the keys to the city
And all the spectators are wearing plupple hat, shirts, and other merchandise.
@@greatvalue_ethelcain I like how you think, my dude!
emotional support bees
Thank you! I rarely think.
When your not watching Shane talk about ghouls with Ryan and you see him out in everyday life interacting with people you really get to see that he's a charismatic charming fellow
fr. what a man
I almost got to meet these two. I've lived in Solvang all my life and I was so surprised to see them at the wine place at the end of the video. I didnt want to interrupt them while they were recording and I was working anyways :/ I made a small cameo though! Im in the background at 18:25.
Do you remember when? I’ve been wondering what with COVID
@@anaturcotte5981 I don’t remember exactly when, but I think it was the fall before covid. I felt like it was either October or November.
I feel like Shane and Ryan made that ostrichtown sign. Who else would put "Feed This Bad Boy" on a sign??? 😂
Shockingly they did not. It's been there for years.
@@heathers8565 incredible. I love it
"It was me, shane madej who said that"

Hans Christian Andersen was hella gay for Christian Voigt. The little mermaid was loosly based on his own unrequited love.
The should have a pride flag at all of his museums
Well, now I wanna read 😳
sorry no. He might have been slightly bisexual, but he definitely loved the ladies.
and you're thinking of this which was about the sister of Christian en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sweethearts;_or,_The_Top_and_the_Ball
@@johanvajse8410 Ohhh, courting your boyfriend’s sister so she can be your beard. Classic gay.
Ryan: you know, there are snakes in the walls in london.
Shane: laug- *what*
I love how they just took a picture in front of the ostrich farm sign shirtless and we got 0 context lol
shane and ryan are coworkers to acquaintances to friends to absolute best friends excellence
I really wish they could do another season of WWW, it's just so wholesome and makes my heart so happy and full watching our Berry Boys go to town.
I have news for you
Whenever my anxiety gets bad I watch this series and it makes me feel so much better. Thank you ghoul boys.
"I love to eat till I cant breathe anymore"
"It's a problem"
"No its not"
Me: nice..Nice comeback..xD
He became so defensive when Shane said it was a problem
When Ryan said he was gonna be the Mayor, all I could see was Ricky Goldsworth... 😟
HAHAHAA YES
I know weird and/or wonderful world isn't the most viewed videos on watcher but it's truly my favorite series ever please bring it back when it's safe to do so!
Side note I've watched this particular video like 5 times I love it so much ❤️
the guy who owns the lil round pancake place is adorable im crying
I wonder how many people they meet think they’re a married couple.
At least 90%
Probably most if not all of them
All of them? 😄

@@sophiedetorie5665 hahaha
"i'm gonna be mayor!!"
Ryan your Ricky is showing
"sir, this is MY house!"
"i like to eat until i can't breathe.... i want to eat until the lights leave my eyes."
is.... is ryan okay this episode?
Absolutely not. It’s amazing
Shane: it's a problem-
Ryan: It's nOT.
Never have I felt so represented by them both
I'm curious as to how may searches for "Johnny Cash ostrich attack" were made after viewing this video.
After? I searched it during the episode lol
I literally just paused to search it then went back to watching haha
So I checked google trends and yeah, there was a spike in “Johnny cash ostrich” on August 7th
I can't be bothered. Id rather spend my time in the comments... 😅
So was it true?
Floedekage I mean,, it is, but you shouldn’t take a random yt commenter’s word as fact 😅
I just know Christmas in this town is a dream.
What no its not lol. Try working and living here during that time. Makes you want to run tourists down with your car lol
There are fairy lights up all year long here, but Christmas is pretty spectacular
Also fun is Halloween, because there's pumpkins and haybales everywhere and the shops compete in a scarecrow decorating contest
@@heathers8565 wow, let's not run people down with cars!
Just do as we Copenhageners do and bicycle really fast and really close to the tourists on the sidewalk who isn't used to bicyclepaths.
That's the good old passive aggressive Danish way! 👍💖
@@Floedekage lmao as a Dutch person i applaude you
"I *love* cream puffs... I love them Shane..." He's begging 😂😂👍👍👍👍
This series is such a comfort watch for me. I occasionally put an episode up before I go to sleep to calm down
Same...well all of their content is my comfort watch lol
My favorite thing is when shane goes "its a problem" and ryan comes back immediately with the rebuttal "no its not"
Chelsea's face when Shane makes that awful pun... she's regretting every life decision she's ever made to get to this point 😂
I love how they butchered “Dansk Bageri Conditori og Kafe” and I sat there,
and thought “wow danish sounds like such a weird language”, then I remembered that I am a dane, I live Denmark...😂😅
On another note “Dansk Bageri Conditori og Kafe” is not how we spell it in Danish, but it’s close enough
I’m one quarter Danish born in US which means I know absolutely nothing about my Danish heritage… except for Kringle.
@@weakanklesfornamjoon Ahahaha then that’s most of what you need to know. We are a kringle and Lego land
As a Dane, I have to say, I am crying of joy
Also those ‘æbleskiver’ were HUGE
"I'm trying to wine and dine myself"
Mood of 2020.
Yessss
BRO HE PRANKED THEM SO HARD BY HAVING THEM EAT THE PANCAKE BALL IN ONE BITE AHAHAHAHAHA
it's the fact Ryan still did it with the 2nd ball too lmaoo
It's part of the pranks played on tourests there.
I love Shane’s face when she says “don’t turn your back to them” (about the ostriches)
I just watched the whole playlist of Weird Wonderful World and I would love another season! As a fellow Chicagoan I think Shane should take Ryan to popular sites in Chicago along with different restaurants (:
THEY NEED TO SEE THE BEAN
chelsea the coffee girl is mad energy
i can see why he's the mayor, he seems very fun and charming and just really down to earth. i'd trust him with the city
that ending with him laughing at Ryan's jokes about taking over his job is so cute.
Shane and Ryan: make money off of going on fun dates
This episode of Solvang would make everyone fall in love with this place instantly. Lovely city, like a town in a fairytale.
This is gonna sound weird but shane and ryan just being their unhinged selves and having fun really makes me smile. It's something I hope I can do in the future, just be myself without caring about other's opinnions and have fun. I have social anxiety so it's gonna be hard to get there but I think it'll be worth it :)
i love ryan's random facts that nobody asked for lol
"Ooo, are you trying to wine and dine me?"
"No, I'm trying to wine and dine myself!"
Truest form of friendship
11:19 i am loving this girls humour
