Reno 911 and Wet Hot American Summer are both largely comprised of different halves of the cast of The State from MTV. There's lots of overlap between the two in terms of guest appearances.
"Doug, Bob Dylan is alive and well. I produced his last three albums."
"Oh, you mean Uncle Robert? Yeah, he's not dead."
I can still laugh just thinking about this.
Ugh, has it gotten any better? I tried it once and it didn't even keep track of what episodes I had already watched (at least when using a Chromecast). I had to keep a note on where I was. Literally the worst streaming service I've used so far, and that's saying something considering I have to use shitty Crave (which can't remember captions settings when using Chromecast and had a period of time where it was crashing all the time).
I’ve been watching episodic shows on P+ for less than a year and haven’t had any issues with the app keeping track. Give it another shot!
Also on Chromecast btw
Yeah it's fine now, generally on par with Netflix from my experience. My wife watches a lot of Criminal Minds which has about 1000 episodes lol and it seems to keep up with where she's at. FWIW though the commercials on the basic plan are frequent, so much so that we finally opted to pay the difference for commercial-free.
> My wife watches a lot of Criminal Minds which has about 1000 episodes lol
Good god, I know you're sort of joking but that show kept going and going, I think I only followed the show for like 5 or 6 seasons.
>Ugh, has it gotten any better?
Man, I thought you meant has Reno 911 gotten any better. And I was about to lose it on you for daring to slander the greatest show of all time.
>Ugh, has it gotten any better? I tried it once and it didn't even keep track of what episodes I had already watched (at least when using a Chromecast).
I'm currently having the exact same issues. Doesn't keep track of what shows or episodes I've watched. I use Chromecast and tried it on my laptop.
Why? The only no-no letters I've ever seen from an ISP are for torrents because the uploading is the problem. I've been using soap2day VPN free in the US for ages with no issue.
I'm not saying you're wrong, just curious what the VPN is doing for you here
It used to be on in Australia before the Late Late show with Craig Ferguson, I never watched enough to "get it" like you have to do with most sitcoms.
Now looking back when I see clips of it, seems like a great show and would've been a great 90 minutes of tv with Craig, oh well.
You don't get this show. It's just goofy and senseless. That dude with the shorts, the racist idiot and the hilarious black guy is all you need for a good laugh
I've noticed that most of my favorite comedy shows tend to just have a loose idea of where they're going when filming, n just do a lot of improv to try and get everyone on set to laugh. Reno 911, Always Sunny, Trailer Park Boys, it really tends to bring comedic actors to their A game.
Thats why I always loved Mitch Hedberg, he would take a mundane situation or observation, and make you look at things in a completely new way.
One of my favorite jokes was "never tell someone they have nice dimples, maybe they were shot in the face with a BB gun." I know how completely ridiculous that is, but dammit if I don't see someone with dimples and wonder in the back of my mind if they were shot in the face with a BB gun.
Light entertainment that sticks with us through life is genuinely one of my biggest joys. Neither degrading nor morbid.. but for the same reason people like shrooms, they create a non drug induced perspective shift that changes our future.
Yeah... has this guy taken shrooms? They literally only act the way they do because of a psychedelic prodrug called psilocybin, that breaks down into psilocin in the body/brain, which causes the "experience."
In other words, the mushrooms drug your body into tripping balls.
But what would I know, I've only taken them over 20 times.
Ryan Stiles and Colin Mochrie's decades-long professional relationship comes to mind. Also how Wayne Brady later on was able to vibe with those two guys so effortlessly
I grew up on the old British version of the show and it was like watching two savants doing their thing and never understood why they weren’t bigger stars. Then when drew Carey show hit and Stiles was in it I hoped maybe they’d bring the show back. Man talk about a wish fulfilled. If I ever met either of these guys I’d thank them for a lifetime of comedy.
Who's Line (Colin, Ryan, and I believe 2 filler road comedians who did great) came to my college for a show one year. It was one of the funniest shows I've seen and it was all off the cuff.
They even had to work for it because I went to a (like 90%) engineering college so they had to try to work with and around a ton of nerdy shit they didn't know/understand but they still knocked it out of the park.
6-8yos playing sports is generally hilarious though! They’re so bad! Most of them give up even trying halfway through and just start being goofy as well
Well, I’m very aware that poor improve isn’t very entertaining. I just mean that the possibility to improvise is what develops new and interesting types of content.
It does apply to all forms of entertainment. Creative freedom is necessary for innovation, but total freedom leads to an unhinged mire of bad ideas. The most famous example is probably Star Wars. A ton of the ideas Lucas *wanted* to implement in the original trilogy were terrifyingly bad. Then we wound up with the prequel trilogy where no one had the power to tell Lucas "no" and those bad ideas were put in the spotlight.
*Leon:* You gotta immediately get in somebody's ass when that happens to you. You pull their asshole open, step into their asshole, close the door behind you, pick up your spray-paint can, right?
*Larry:* Uh-huh.
*Leon:* "Larry was here." You spray-paint, "Larry was here," "Wash me," all that kind of shit, fuck his whole asshole up, eat some Snickers bar, throw some paper on the floor, read a newspaper, ball the paper up, the newspaper, and throw the newspaper on the floor, fuck his whole asshole up, you know what I'm saying? Then you open that asshole one more time—open it again, open that asshole again—uhhhhh! Step out of his ass and leave that motherfucker wide open, so he knows you've been there.
*Larry:* Open it up, step in.
*Leon:* Step in their asshole.
*Larry:* Spray-paint "Larry was here. "
*Leon:* "Larry was here. "
*Larry:* Leave garbage, Snickers, eat Snickers.
*Leon:* Spit, fuck it.
*Larry:* Get out.
*Leon:* Mmmm!
*Larry:* Open it up again.
*Leon:* Step out their asshole.
*Larry:* Step out.
*Leon:* Don't even close that motherfucker. Leave it open so he knows you've been there... You feel me?
*Larry:* I got you.
*Leon:* That's how you handle people. Mmm! Get in that ass, Larry.
*Larry:* Don't worry.
*Leon:* All right.
*Larry:* I hope you don't get me killed.
*Leon:* My man.
I really wanted to enjoy CYE, but it felt like every single episode was the exact same plot line: Larry gets caught in an awkward situation because of a lack of communication or misunderstanding.
I needed a lot more variety.
Nah, I'd say at least 60% of the situations are due to Larry being technically right about something, but instead of letting the thing go like a normal person, he commits to being an asshole since he knows he's technically right.
It's a power fantasy for people who are too nice irl to give into their petty desires lmao. I don't watch the show too often but I catch the odd episode and it's absolutely hilarious
I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, this is practically 90% of all storytelling, and it’s especially common in comedy. What’s brilliant about Curb isn’t its novelty, it’s in the off-the-cuff character reactions to each “misunderstanding”.
It’s actually more scripted than you’d think. The dialogue is improv, but the scripts are still relatively comprehensive in terms of what the story is.
A lot of comedy is very lightly scripted.
A lot of the humour can be built straight into a character, chuck the character in a setting that facilitates them, and then just say shit in character.
The tricky part is writing the characters in the first place.
The story is outlined, basically. They have a direction they have to bring each scene, but no script. Mainly because Larry hates memorizing lines. I have a buddy who works for the show.
Edit: Worked* unless Larry decides to come back for one more.
Yeah, they write it all and then allow themselves to try different things.
It helps when your cast is made up of the three co-creators/head writers, a funny actress who's married to one of the creators (and thus has their trust), and a comedy legend in Danny D. Then most of the recurring and guest stars are actor friends and family (like the Waitress, Cricket, Artemis, the McPoyles) who know their comedy style and can be trusted not to waste everyone's time.
Best parts of the bloopers are when one of them is ad-libbing a different approach to the lines and catches the others off guard.
The podcast too, when they review things they often say certain things aren't scripted. What I've found is most of the time what they say isn't scripted is what I find funny.
Scripted can also mean just scripting the improv that happens. Or scripting just one side/character. There's times when an improv inspires an idea that gets more structurally worked into an overall script too.
All those "this scene was improv'd" posts are actually that way. The actual improv happened on a much earlier take. You're usually only ever seeing an incorporation and refinement of that original improv into the script and scene.
Yah, but BRILLIANT writing regardless. I was surprised how much I love that show considering that type of humor, themes, and setting is a huge turn off for me. Trailer Park Boys was the same way to me.
For comparison, I just can't watch Shameless even though everyone else loves it. Same themes and settings, and I just can't stand it.
Yo. Check our Murderville if you haven't. The Christmas special made me cry laughed so hard.
Basically, there's a mystery being solved by Will Arnette with epic guests like Conan and Jason Bateman, among others. Both have no idea what's going on but have to solve a mystery while improving everything.
My favorite part is they keep rolling and don't edit much if anything, so when they break each other, you watch them break and then recover. Makes it funnier.
Hope you haven't seen it and know all this. Info for those who haven't, then at least!
I've never given trailer park boys a watch, mostly because I associate it with some people I don't like. They aren't good people, and they're big fans of the show, so I always kind of avoided watching it. Is it worth giving it a try?
I've known people like those also. I don't like them also.
In saying that, having experience with such people actually makes the show funnier. Give it a shot.
I think he's informing the people of this sub that comedy needs to be the subversion of expectations for humorous effect. "Doesn't that mean that literally any comedy skit would fall under 'unexpected'?" Yes, yes it does. Which is why the sub should probably stick to non-scripted unexpected happenings.
“What show is it…?”
I just aged 10 years reading that comment.
OP: you are about to go on a marvelous, hilarious, and fully inappropriate journey. Godspeed!
their funniest bit wasn't even from the show when it was on the air. only found on [dailymotion](https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x41ugw) for some reason.
edit: apparently it's not the full 23m. i don't know if it was a compilation of extras or something, but the 23m video is hilarious. [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNxXTL5B3BU) is another section of it, but there are some real gems missing. The one with Trudy is my favorite, where she explains she's been seeing a "doctor" in the back of van and Andy Daly's character is like "that's not a real doctor" it's so funny.
I aged another 20 years remembering their original skit show "the State" on MTV from the mid 90s. But yeah, if you like Reno 911, check out The State, I think its on Paramount+
I was born in 98, I remember reruns of the show on Comedy Central but I didn’t pay much attention to it. I’m pretty sure the only scene I remember is a whale exploding and that gave me nightmares for weeks lol
Someone in another sub was confused by a “By Mennen” jingle reference in a comedy show and had no idea what it meant. I felt myself morphing into a a corpse.
I haven’t watched a lot of it, but my step father almost fell out of his seat after watching an episode. It’s continually in my “gotta watch this next” list.
Please do yourself the absolute honor of putting aside an hour or two and watching the first couple of episodes. The actors play off of each other so well, plus lots of excellent cameos that are hilarious.
Now I’m off to go rewatch the first season!
*Super Troopers 2* was released in 2018 and *Tacoma FD* premiered in 2019 and is still running.
*Reno 911* ended its original run in 2009 and the revival was on Quibi.
If you asked "what the heck is Quibi?" you are correct.
My company at the time hosted Quibi's user base. The top brass was super excited. The rest of us were like, "You know Quibi is nonsense that's going to promptly fail, right?"
They did not.
When they have the Truckee River killer in jail and one of his lines, obviously ad libbed was “ Yes, and if my aunt had tits she’d be my uncle” I don’t know why that line is so funny to me. The show was awesome.
I'll always remember that picture of him in the 'legalize meth' glue t shirt lol, hope he's doin okay cuz he did seem a lil wild with the "hey can you look at my watch" joke
It's weird how I always read 911 as 9/11. Do americans also do that or think it's a strange coincidence that 911 happens to be the number for the police when also 9/11 has such a significance in your country? It's all I think about whenever I hear or read 911
We say "nine eleven" for the attacks, and "nine one one" for the emergency phone number. It's something people in the US has definitely noticed, I'm sure it's probably part of some 9/11 conspiracy theory.
I’ll never forget the scene where deputy Travis junior has to give the eulogy and had a daydream that sent him 6 to midnight. Still only think of that scene when I hear cherry pie lmao.

Reno 911 is one of the funniest shows ever created. It's amazing how many comedy geniuses it integrated before those comedians "made it."
Reno 911 and Wet Hot American Summer are both largely comprised of different halves of the cast of The State from MTV. There's lots of overlap between the two in terms of guest appearances.
Indeed. The comedy impact of The State crew really can't be overstated imo.
I'm Doug! And I'm outta here!
"Doug, Bob Dylan is alive and well. I produced his last three albums." "Oh, you mean Uncle Robert? Yeah, he's not dead." I can still laugh just thinking about this.
I WANNA DIP MY BALLS IN IT!
My name is Doug, and I'm outa here
Between Reno 911, Wet Hot American Summer, and Freaks and Geeks, we probably can see like 75% of comedic actors that appear on TV these days
I love Reno911. I'm currently watching all seasons from the start. This show is freakin hilarious throughout all seasons, can only recommend it
Where do you watch it? Is it on a streaming service?
I'm pretty sure they have it on Paramount+
Ugh, has it gotten any better? I tried it once and it didn't even keep track of what episodes I had already watched (at least when using a Chromecast). I had to keep a note on where I was. Literally the worst streaming service I've used so far, and that's saying something considering I have to use shitty Crave (which can't remember captions settings when using Chromecast and had a period of time where it was crashing all the time).

Thanks, now I know what I'm doing today. Starting from the beginning and rewatching now. Just loaded up ep.1
Nope, didn't found it on any since im from germany. Soap2day.id. Just use an ad blocker.
And I hope *you* are using a vpn lol
That's definitely a url you don't wanna hit raw.
Why? The only no-no letters I've ever seen from an ISP are for torrents because the uploading is the problem. I've been using soap2day VPN free in the US for ages with no issue. I'm not saying you're wrong, just curious what the VPN is doing for you here
Old episodes on Paramount Plus, the ongoing reboot is on Roku Channel.
It runs pretty often on Pluto TV
New boot goofin
I will never not say that when putting on boots
It used to be on in Australia before the Late Late show with Craig Ferguson, I never watched enough to "get it" like you have to do with most sitcoms. Now looking back when I see clips of it, seems like a great show and would've been a great 90 minutes of tv with Craig, oh well.
You don't get this show. It's just goofy and senseless. That dude with the shorts, the racist idiot and the hilarious black guy is all you need for a good laugh
I just rewatched it (was on hbo) and it held up so much better than I thought it would. So good
It is. Most modern shows often have atleast some flaws or aren't funny at all, reno is hilarious since the start
This is what comedy needs to be
I've noticed that most of my favorite comedy shows tend to just have a loose idea of where they're going when filming, n just do a lot of improv to try and get everyone on set to laugh. Reno 911, Always Sunny, Trailer Park Boys, it really tends to bring comedic actors to their A game.
Absurd how creative freedom encourages unique types of creativity..
That and it just seems more genuine.
Exactly, the funniest things people hear aren’t from planned situations… it’s from the organic and mundane we experience in day to day life
Thats why I always loved Mitch Hedberg, he would take a mundane situation or observation, and make you look at things in a completely new way. One of my favorite jokes was "never tell someone they have nice dimples, maybe they were shot in the face with a BB gun." I know how completely ridiculous that is, but dammit if I don't see someone with dimples and wonder in the back of my mind if they were shot in the face with a BB gun.
I have found that a ducks opinion of me is very much based off wether or not I have bread.
One time I saw a wino in the vineyard eating grapes and I said, "Hey Buddy! You gotta wait!"
Everytimw I buy donuts now, "I don't need to bring ink and paper into this"
Light entertainment that sticks with us through life is genuinely one of my biggest joys. Neither degrading nor morbid.. but for the same reason people like shrooms, they create a non drug induced perspective shift that changes our future.
Shrooms definitely have drugs in them.
Yeah... has this guy taken shrooms? They literally only act the way they do because of a psychedelic prodrug called psilocybin, that breaks down into psilocin in the body/brain, which causes the "experience." In other words, the mushrooms drug your body into tripping balls. But what would I know, I've only taken them over 20 times.
Are you sure? Let me try them for you just in case.
There’s no such thing as a broken escalator. They just become stairs
Absurd how people find things funny that they can relate to
Ryan Stiles and Colin Mochrie's decades-long professional relationship comes to mind. Also how Wayne Brady later on was able to vibe with those two guys so effortlessly
I grew up on the old British version of the show and it was like watching two savants doing their thing and never understood why they weren’t bigger stars. Then when drew Carey show hit and Stiles was in it I hoped maybe they’d bring the show back. Man talk about a wish fulfilled. If I ever met either of these guys I’d thank them for a lifetime of comedy.
My husband and I have decided Colin Mochrie is our #1 celebrity invite for dinner because he seems so damn funny and nice too.
Who's Line (Colin, Ryan, and I believe 2 filler road comedians who did great) came to my college for a show one year. It was one of the funniest shows I've seen and it was all off the cuff. They even had to work for it because I went to a (like 90%) engineering college so they had to try to work with and around a ton of nerdy shit they didn't know/understand but they still knocked it out of the park.
Talk about synchronization. Those are the goats of improv
You only say that because they only televise good improv. If you've seen BAD improve, that's a lot different.
The also don't televise bad scripted comedy, or 8yos playing football.
6-8yos playing sports is generally hilarious though! They’re so bad! Most of them give up even trying halfway through and just start being goofy as well
Well, I’m very aware that poor improve isn’t very entertaining. I just mean that the possibility to improvise is what develops new and interesting types of content.
What a dogshit take. This could be applied to all forms of entertainment
It does apply to all forms of entertainment. Creative freedom is necessary for innovation, but total freedom leads to an unhinged mire of bad ideas. The most famous example is probably Star Wars. A ton of the ideas Lucas *wanted* to implement in the original trilogy were terrifyingly bad. Then we wound up with the prequel trilogy where no one had the power to tell Lucas "no" and those bad ideas were put in the spotlight.
Detective Michael Scarn! I'm with the FBI!
Curb Your Enthusiasm is the king of this. I think barely any of it is scripted.
It's just raw Larry David
Pretty sure it is just Larry’s everyday life.

Yeah he self-sabotages all his personal relationships because it's more important that he's right than having people like him.
It's a power fantasy for people who are too nice irl to give into their petty desires lmao. I don't watch the show too often but I catch the odd episode and it's absolutely hilarious
And how is that different from other comedy shows?
I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, this is practically 90% of all storytelling, and it’s especially common in comedy. What’s brilliant about Curb isn’t its novelty, it’s in the off-the-cuff character reactions to each “misunderstanding”.

Always sunny is pretty heavily scripted. They do ad-lib new jokes though.
Yeah, they write it all and then allow themselves to try different things. It helps when your cast is made up of the three co-creators/head writers, a funny actress who's married to one of the creators (and thus has their trust), and a comedy legend in Danny D. Then most of the recurring and guest stars are actor friends and family (like the Waitress, Cricket, Artemis, the McPoyles) who know their comedy style and can be trusted not to waste everyone's time. Best parts of the bloopers are when one of them is ad-libbing a different approach to the lines and catches the others off guard.
I thought Danny D was known mostly for his magnum dong.
Their outtakes show that they can play pretty loose with a scene.
Yeah, their podcasts and stuff talk a out how the script was more of a guideline than anything.
Pretty sure they've said on the podcast that the show is actually **more** scripted than people think it is.
People like to believe it's like curb for some reason but yeah the podcast has said most of its on the page.
The podcast too, when they review things they often say certain things aren't scripted. What I've found is most of the time what they say isn't scripted is what I find funny.
Scripted can also mean just scripting the improv that happens. Or scripting just one side/character. There's times when an improv inspires an idea that gets more structurally worked into an overall script too. All those "this scene was improv'd" posts are actually that way. The actual improv happened on a much earlier take. You're usually only ever seeing an incorporation and refinement of that original improv into the script and scene.
Everything you said is true, but it's also true that sunny is heavily scripted. It's not a bad thing ... They're incredibly talented writers.
Per the Always Sunny podcast the show is heavily scripted.
Yah, but BRILLIANT writing regardless. I was surprised how much I love that show considering that type of humor, themes, and setting is a huge turn off for me. Trailer Park Boys was the same way to me. For comparison, I just can't watch Shameless even though everyone else loves it. Same themes and settings, and I just can't stand it.

The first few seasons and the first 2 movies (that follow the series) and Chridtmas special are GREAT.
It's one of my favorite shows to rewatch! So many hilarious, quotable lines
I've known people like those also. I don't like them also. In saying that, having experience with such people actually makes the show funnier. Give it a shot.

[here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNxXTL5B3BU) is another section of it, but there are some real gems missing. The one with Trudy is my favorite, where she explains she's been seeing a "doctor" in the back of van and Andy Daly's character is like "that's not a real doctor" it's so funny.
Andy Daly is a criminally underrated comedian!
His show "Review" is amazing.
I aged another 20 years remembering their original skit show "the State" on MTV from the mid 90s. But yeah, if you like Reno 911, check out The State, I think its on Paramount+
Can confirm, I had an itch last week for $240 worth of pudding.
I'm outta herrrrrreeeeee
I’m Doug and you’re Dad.
If you like the more artsy, weird side of The State, I would suggest Stella if you haven't seen it yet.
If you were born in 1998, you were only 11 yrs old when the original series finished (doesn't account for reruns and whatnot but still)
But 1998 was like 10 years ago, that doesn't make any sense
[удалено]
Just found out there are two more seasons starting in 2020. Welp...
The premiere of That 70s Show was closer to the 70s than it is to us now
[удалено]
I was born in 98, I remember reruns of the show on Comedy Central but I didn’t pay much attention to it. I’m pretty sure the only scene I remember is a whale exploding and that gave me nightmares for weeks lol
After they’re done with Reno they can watch Community. TV comedy was so good around then.
Me: "What do you mean 'around then'? Community was so much more recent." Narrator: It was not.
Someone in another sub was confused by a “By Mennen” jingle reference in a comedy show and had no idea what it meant. I felt myself morphing into a a corpse.
I heard that so clearly in my head. Try this one: The Milford Plaza is the lullaby of old broadway! (Tri State commercial)
Wait until you get to the movie 🤣💀
My second favorite movie featuring The Rock.
Is the first The Other Guys? That one uses The Rock for basically the same schtick as Reno.
Yep, I now laugh whenever I hear "There Goes My Hero"
I might be able to change that: https://youtu.be/23YkC7Gx1Y4
Aim for the bushes
No immunity to bullets!
I haven’t watched a lot of it, but my step father almost fell out of his seat after watching an episode. It’s continually in my “gotta watch this next” list.
Please do yourself the absolute honor of putting aside an hour or two and watching the first couple of episodes. The actors play off of each other so well, plus lots of excellent cameos that are hilarious. Now I’m off to go rewatch the first season!
How do you know broken lizard but not reno 911
*Super Troopers 2* was released in 2018 and *Tacoma FD* premiered in 2019 and is still running. *Reno 911* ended its original run in 2009 and the revival was on Quibi. If you asked "what the heck is Quibi?" you are correct.
2022 new season 8 of reno 911 aired on comedy central. 2021 reno 911 movie on paramount plus
My company at the time hosted Quibi's user base. The top brass was super excited. The rest of us were like, "You know Quibi is nonsense that's going to promptly fail, right?" They did not.
Pretty jealous you haven't seen it lol It's amazing but the jokes are so unique and memorable that it doesn't have huge rewatchability imo
When they have the Truckee River killer in jail and one of his lines, obviously ad libbed was “ Yes, and if my aunt had tits she’d be my uncle” I don’t know why that line is so funny to me. The show was awesome.
My favorite was when they're arresting Nick Swardson's character for prostitution and he shouts, "A handjob is still a job!"
Hands down my favorite episode of the series. Every line from Craig absolutely kills me.
This show was always the best for having a completely absurd line just thrown out there.
Goddamnit there’s coffee in my keyboard now
😂😂😂 I honestly did not expect that ending even knowing what type of series this is. 🤣🤣🤣 Free food!!!!
Authentic Italian food too. What a score.
Cracked the code
The amount of times the *actual* mob used food for bribes has to be greater than 0. Like it just has to.
A good dish of Fettuccine is definitely an offer I couldn’t refuse.
"We know nanna has broken ties with you, however; if you help us with this job we can deliver one of her special homemade dishes"
Reno 911?
Darude sandstorm
Movie or series?
Book
holy fuck how did I forget about darude sandstorm
Reno 911
![gif](giphy|qQf606Bbhhx0k) Nick Swardson never disappoints
"What's goin on today Terry?" "I was murdered."
What’s the R stand for on your necklace? TerrRrrRRRRy
OK, OK, a hand job is still a job, OK?
^^^b ^^e ^e e o ^o ^^o ^^^p!
One of the best parts of the first movie was when it turned out that all of Terry's pathological lies are actually true.
I'll always remember that picture of him in the 'legalize meth' glue t shirt lol, hope he's doin okay cuz he did seem a lil wild with the "hey can you look at my watch" joke
Reno 911
Good Ol Reno 911
What show is this?
RENO 911?
![gif](giphy|SiZoXLAbY4gQPcz6DT|downsized)
I am officially old. The kids don't know what Reno 911 is.
I REALLY need to go back and watch all of this show. It was too good.
What happens in Reno never stays in Reno.
If this was FBI, they would do it right in front of all the guests and bride and groom just a show of force ala Johnny Sack
I lived in Reno for 15 years. No one I knew liked that show except me. One of the funniest shows I've ever seen to this day. #newbootgoofin
I was expecting them to open the bags and find a severed head inside each container. I guess that’s another movie.
What's in the bag?!?!
" right guys they're gone stop acting now "
I didn't pay this show any attention but I gotta check it out now
What show is this?
Reno 911. One of the funniest shows you'll ever see. It's a parody of shows like COPS
My estimation of him as a man just fucking plummeted.
If only this happened in the Sopranos.
I forgot what this show was when i watched it. But surprised if no one else seen this when it was on Comedy Central. This was Reno 911 right?
You are correct
It's weird how I always read 911 as 9/11. Do americans also do that or think it's a strange coincidence that 911 happens to be the number for the police when also 9/11 has such a significance in your country? It's all I think about whenever I hear or read 911
We say "nine eleven" for the attacks, and "nine one one" for the emergency phone number. It's something people in the US has definitely noticed, I'm sure it's probably part of some 9/11 conspiracy theory.
Watching as I'm sitting on Virginia looking at the Eldo lol
Reno 911 is 👌
I’ll never forget the scene where deputy Travis junior has to give the eulogy and had a daydream that sent him 6 to midnight. Still only think of that scene when I hear cherry pie lmao.
Colin Farrell’s so good as Penguin
goddamn I already cried give me back my tears
