This was pretty funny if you grew up in the 80s. They took the intro to every family sitcom and just extended it through the whole show.

That said I think the people who write this stuff have to be high out of their minds.

Amazing how I watched all the way to end in the hope of seeing topless girl again. I was just about to stop watching when she first popped up.

And now that damn song is stuck in my head.

People that think this is just a spoof of sitcom intros seem to be missing out big time. It focuses on that as a way of disarming you. It's really just a surrealist short movie, playing off that, but there's no real rhyme and reason and it's just the absurdity of how it changes. No that doesn't mean you have to enjoy it for find that "funny", I don't enjoy it as some people, but it was an entertaining watch.

If you haven't seen it, there's another video that plays on the medication commercials. There might be even more videos by now as that one came out a little while back too.
 
I liked the first few minutes, up until they introduced
the killer
.

When did you notice the killer? He was subtly visible in many scenes before his introduction.

(this is where the subtlety stops and they want you to notice him)

(animated, camera focuses on him and zooms)

Then they start focusing on him in almost every shot...
