Ep 6. Slop

Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! season 1 episode 6 titled "Slop" continues with its brand of surreal, absurdist humor. The strange and often uncomfortable skits are presented in a variety show format, with Tim and Eric as the hosts who introduce and star in many of the sketches.

The episode begins with a faux commercial for a product called "Shrimp and White Wine." The commercial features a stylish, middle-aged couple who are enjoying the luxury of this product, which seems to be little more than a can of shrimp in white wine. The couple expresses their love for the product in a series of non sequiturs, and it quickly becomes apparent that the whole commercial is a joke.

The next sketch is a bizarre animated short called "Office Hours" that features a humanoid creature with a microphone for a head. The creature is conducting an interview with a man who is strapped to a chair and seems to be in great distress. The creature's questions are non-sensical, and the man's responses are equally strange. The animation and sound effects are intentionally low-budget and crude, adding to the surreal atmosphere.

In another sketch, Tim and Eric play the hosts of a public-access TV cooking show, where they prepare a dish called "Slop". The dish is a bizarre combination of various food items, including cereal, mustard, and raw bacon. The hosts attempt to make the dish seem appetizing and even bring out a "celebrity chef" to endorse the recipe, but it's clear that nobody would want to eat this revolting concoction.

One of the more memorable sketches in this episode is a mock-infomercial for a product called "B'owl". The product is a small, plastic owl that is intended to be used as a container for soup or other hot liquids. The infomercial features testimonials from people who claim to love their B'owl, including a woman who brings hers to the movies and fills it with popcorn. The whole concept is absurd, but the deadpan delivery of the testimonials makes it all the funnier.

Another sketch features Tim and Eric as the stars of a bizarre game show called "Gravy Robbers". Contestants are given various challenges, such as stealing gravy from a sleeping man's plate without waking him up. The show is very low-budget, with the contestants wearing silly costumes and the hosts making a mess on the set.

The final sketch of the episode is a fake commercial for "Cinco Face Time Party Snoozer". The product is a sleeping mask that is designed to make it look like the wearer is awake and alert, complete with animated eyes and a fake smile. The commercial features hilarious testimonials from people who have used the product, including a man who wore it during a date and convinced his partner that he was paying attention.

Overall, Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! season 1 episode 6 "Slop" is a prime example of the show's outrageous, surreal humor. The sketches are bizarre and often uncomfortable, but they are also hilarious in their own twisted way. Fans of unconventional comedy will find a lot to love in this episode.
