Hope you enjoy our little homage to our heroes. :) We'll be dropping deleted scenes (of which there are many) plus outtakes on the Patreon this week. Also, Patreon LIVESTREAM on Tuesday! We'll be doing a live reading of an unreleased sketch from the archives. Hope to see you there! www.patreon.com/chrisandjack
We’re still waiting for behind the scenes footage, from the people filming the team of people filming the team of people pretending to film the scene about people pretending to be old comedians pretending to be baseball players
And in another 80 years someone will pay homage to this sketch by pretending to get confused while acting like Chris and Jack getting confused while acting like Abbott and Costello getting confused.
I've seen a few sketches with similar concepts as this before, but those parts showcasing their close friendship is definitely what makes this sketch so unique and very Chris and Jack. I loved watching this so much.
@@Lucaan0102i actually noticed while rewatching that most of their sketches end with them making up in some way lmao, n it's really wholesome, also very uncommon for sketch comddy
When this started I thought to myself "I expect more than this" but the second you guys stepped off the green screen I was like "I'm so sorry, of course this is genius. It always is"
This had me in hysterics once the meta-joke started. "Make-up!" was a beautiful addition that kept the joke fresh and the emotional journey aspect of the skit (from friends to fighting to friends again) was brilliant as always.
the twist with the make up was absolutely insane. i didn't even realize that was how they were responding to the first two makeups until the last one. its amazing.
Comedy Sketchs don’t usually have sequels - I didn’t even know it was possible - but you guys have managed to create a special one! Brilliant wordplay! As ever, thanks so much for sticking around RUclips and bringing us laughs and joy
I've come from three years in the future to tell you that some guy in Ohio doesn't think this counts a sequel. He won't be that bent out of shape but he will argue that it has none of the original creators involved. He will also stop arguing with people on RUclips once his omlet is done in a few minutes. I mean how long could it really take someone to make an omelet.
Yeah they're on such a higher level to all other Internet sketch comedy. Give them a show like Key and Peele and they'd knock it out of the park (pun intended). Seriously. They're so imaginative and the production quality is minimum TV quality, but I've seen worse made things on TV so it's even better than TV quality in a way, and with a shoestring budget compared to what TV shows spend. And the writing and acting is spot on, top notch, and other clichés that are also true in this case. Jack is already relatively famous in showbiz. He was one of the main characters in Avatar the Last Airbender. So I'm hoping that's their way in, they already know people, and success in showbiz is mostly about who you know. And so once this channel blows up in popularity as it surely will eventually, TV studios will greenlight a whole show of them. RUclips channel popularity is exponential. Once they pass certain subscriber thresholds, the sub count will start to increase in the rate that it increases, more and more people will get recommended the videos and more and more will subscribe. It's always like that, years of being relatively low in subs, then eventually something just clicks and the sub count increases exponentially, which leads to more subs, which leads to more subs. A snowball effect. Fingers crossed it happens soon for them. I really love these videos.
Not going to lie. That extra layer of the joke really broke me. I didn't realize the misunderstanding until the director made it clear he was talking about the makeup artist.
I remember the fire time I saw “Who’s On First” It was so goofy and yet so well written and executed that I loved it. I was expecting you guys to just recreate it word for word, and I was completely down for that. Then you went and made it your own!! If seen people make their own versions of this before and it feels so gimmicky or contrived, but the struggling friend who wants the other to be supportive really made this your own version. I loved it!! Great work, again, guys!
This sketch is some next level meta stuff. There's layers and layers of irony and I had to rewatch this like 4 times to really appreciate the cleverness. I think my favorite meta joke was where Chris actually says why the real sketch is funny at 2:51 but in the context of the sketch's sketch. You guys are hilarious and I always look forward to your videos.
The fact that the miscommunication get solved near the end is INSANELY pleasing to me, holy shit thank you. As much as I love the original, there's a small part of my brain that always wanted to see the tension resolve :P
I've been telling all of my friends for literally 4 years to watch Chris & Jack and subscribe I'm hoping at some point the exponential growth suddenly kicks in and they hit the 10 million subs they deserve
"That's the line!!" "And you crossed it!!" Favorite part, lmao. This was absolutely genius, you guys!! My admiration for your writing just went through the roof. I'm sure your heroes would be proud. :)
The knowing extension of the sketch rather than just wholesale reapplication of the premise makes this so much better of an homage than many others I've seen. The original still makes me cry laugh, one of the best.
In this history of this sketch there have only been two riffs on it I thought were particularly great. One was done by Johnny Carson playing President Ronald Reagan on the Tonight Show. The other is this one.
you guys do a good job showing in the beginning that this sketch is a lot more than just saying the lines gj. I was like : oh man I hope this isnt the sketch but when you break off for cut I get floored by your acting once again, love it.
For the love of god get these guys a TV show deal. They're at least as good if not better than Key and Peele, and Key and Peele are absolutely incredible as it is, so a whole show of Chris and Jack would be amazing. Another of my favourites is Mitchell and Webb, their TV show of sketch comedy was fantastic, and Chris and Jack reminds me a lot of Mitchell and Webb actually, the same kind of humour, plus a lot of meta stuff like this baseball sketch here, and something like the misogynist bridge troll sketch would absolutely be something Mitchell and Webb would do, like their sketches about how the moon landing hoax conspiracy theory is absolutely nuts, and the sketch about how homeopathy is ridiculous.
Wow. Masterfully done guys. Not just a copy, but using the same joke, in a new way. Ab and cos would be proud to see their work lovingly respected like this.
I've binge-watched all your sketches all afternoon and I think I'm obsessed. Seriously don't know why I haven't stumbled across you sooner or how you still are under 1 mil subs, everything you guys create is pure gold
HUGE task to try to somehow contribute to the most iconic comedy routine ever. And you nailed it. I think A&C would’ve thoroughly enjoyed this. Well done!

so What is the best joke you guys have told?
That was so good!
@@jakejuracka I agree!
@@jaybratene5313 Wait, so you think What joke is their best?
@@jakejuracka I mean, yeah. It's just a personal opinion though. All of their sketches are great, so it's understandable if you don't agree.
I like how in scenes like this, there's a team of people actually behind the cameras, filming the team pretending to film the scene
I didnt think of that haha
We’re still waiting for behind the scenes footage, from the people filming the team of people filming the team of people pretending to film the scene about people pretending to be old comedians pretending to be baseball players
What if that team is being filmed, but we didn't see them being filmed, as that was cut?!
@@rusteddenial453 That wishes you'd think of him more often.
Have you seen One Cut of the Dead, yet? You may enjoy that too. Don't want to spoil it, because the twist is fantastic.

Chris & Jack are severely underrated. Get these boys to 1 mil subs!

This was a perfect sequel to the original Who's on First
Seriously, i think they'd be proud.
04:13 i love the almost teary eyes when they said "WE'RE NOT FIGHTING!"
"We're not fighting" was the moment I broke. Excellent job as always. You might have even improved the original which is insane.
Not going to lie. That extra layer of the joke really broke me. I didn't realize the misunderstanding until the director made it clear he was talking about the makeup artist.
@@KohlswaSunrest It was so perfectly meta
I thought he was calling for makeup the whole time and didn't get their side of it until they screamed, "We're not fighting!"
The makeup line is the best. I didn't even get it until the third mention.
I like how they're covering Abbott and Costello's "Who's On First?" but with a clever meta twist. These guys are the best!
This acting is so beautifully meta you fall into it even better than Abbott and Costello. Phenomenal work to both of you
And the additional layer of misunderstanding between them and the Director over make up vs makeup.
I remember the fire time I saw “Who’s On First” It was so goofy and yet so well written and executed that I loved it.
I was expecting you guys to just recreate it word for word, and I was completely down for that. Then you went and made it your own!!

The fact that this doesn't have more views only shows that not enough people are familiar with the original... because this is perfect.

this is genius. One of the best skits in all of comedy ever, retold by one of the greatest comedic duos of the modern day
Jeez you guys are clever. Excellent homage to a classic, keep killin it gentlemen.
Brilliant as usual. Couldn’t help but smile through this whole thing.
This was so emotional, such an emotional journey, I’m- my goodness I’m in tears even.
4:41 that is the most genuine laugh I’ve ever heard
Why did this give me anxiety? Great job paying homage with your own take on it!
Explaining the joke then falling back into it was masterful comedy writing. Bravo boys. Bravo.
Absolutely brilliant homage, frickin' genius.

This sketch is so well done I don't have a single word to describe it.
Edit: What was the word I was looking for.
“And if I could give a note...” 😂

The five magic words: who, when, where, why and WHAT
