underground bunker "This Here Place": a parody of PBS' This Old House, featuring poorly- and lazily-done home repair projects "The Worst Girlfriend In The World": features dating 'horror stories' "Uncle Fran's Musical Forest": featuring an embittered, burned-out children's-show host and a raccoon hand puppet named Mr. Raccoon Man. The same Uncle Fran character later appeared on the Bill Nye The Science Guy series. "Urban Wildlife" mocked the idiosyncrasies of Seattle hipsters' and professionals' methods of social interaction (clothes, slang, etc.) in the style of a narrated nature show. "Street Talk": one-word clips from man-on-the-street/local celebrity Q&A interviews – with the questions & answers played-back in an intentionally mismatched order, resulting in the questions being 'answered' in nonsensically funny ways. This bit was later used as the basis for a CBS pilot co-created and produced by Scott Schaefer, and hosted by Bill Maher. "Qwik Fishin'": John Keister and Pat Cashman as redneck fishermen on Lake Washington. "Subtitle Theater": a couple speaks to each other but subtitles show what they are really thinking. Some sketches were borrowed for the Fox TV series Haywire, in 1990.
