How about some Chaser
The Chaser's War on Everything is an amazing comedy show which airs on Australia's public broadcast ABC. (Their CBC)
The show is hilarious and politically incorrect. Think a mix of Colbert's wit (and the requirement to be up on the news) with the "out-in-the-field" element of Rick Mercer.
The Trojan Horse Skit:
My favourite part is when they try to get it into the Turkish Consulate.
Nicorette Ad Road Test:
I love when they chase after high ranking politicians, especially when the pols play along.
WARNING: IF YOU CAN BE OFFENDED, there is a good chance the following WILL OFFEND YOU
This skit was condemned by the Australian Parliament. It's called the Eulogy Song and mocks Princess Diana, the Crocodile Hunter, John Lennon and others.
A makeover as well for the return appearance. Amazing how these things go viral.
Speaking of viral, one of my summer courses includes this video as a "suggested reading." About 2 minutes into the video, the professor lays out the anthropology of the Numa Numa video. I didn't know the back story at all. I remember the Numa Numa video appearing on Newgrounds and how addictive the song was.
