Best Parts of John Mulaney’s Sack Lunch Bunch Special
- “I don’t like kid shows now, but I did when I was a kid which means they used to be better.”
- Brought to you by a GoFundMe based on a lie.
- “My dad is Marlin Jackson of the Jackson 5″ “Oh, Marlin Jackson. I have no questions about him.”
- “Who knows who voiced her husband and/or brother?”
- “What you know about real life could fit in a thimble on the thumb of tiny Jiminy Cricket.”
- Just that entire algebra segment: the eyepatch, John Mulaney’s awkward dad interjections, the ominous lighting and vaguely ominously snapping children, “Dad did you rehearse this,” that explanation that totally cleared up how algebra saves your eye.
- Topics covered in rapid succession: death, schizophrenia and mental illness, therapy, the inability to eat any food other than macaroni aka a plain plate of noodles with a little bit of butter
- “I would call this thousand year period the Mulanium.” “Oh.” /judgmental silence/
- Girl Talk with Richard Kind.
- “Oh are you not - “ “No, I am not on the group text.”
- “I was just wondering…it sounds silly…do they?” *cut to song ‘do flowers exist at night’ with dramatic 80′s love ballad visuals.
- Literally all of the fears. All of them. I can’t even list the good ones, because they’re all great.
- “When I was young, volcanoes made me really nervous.” “Where did you grow up?” “Baltimore.”
- The ridiculous ‘games’ between segments with weirdly specific obscure trivia.
- “Last June, I saw Paul Simon and Martin Scorsese at Coney Island. They were stacked onto each other’s shoulders under a trench coat, trying to sneak on the Cyclone.” “Did it work?” “Nah, they got busted. ‘Cause they made Paul the head, and he can’t talk, so inside the coat you just hear this chattering on about Frederico Fellini” I don’t know why, it just made me laugh for 20 minutes.
- Annaleigh Ashford listing off some Too Real reasons for crying. Alex, to the camera: “and also this whole time I’m wearing my dad’s fancy scarf and my heelys!”
- Whatever the fuck Jake Gyllenhaal’s segment was, that entire thing was gold. The accent that disappeared when things went wrong, the train conductor/toy soldier/xylophone outfit, the interaction with the cat, “I should have spent time setting up some props that make noise”
- “Noooo, that was my clarinet!” “It landed on a truck full of pillows that was passing by only then.”
- The children calling John Mulaney Mom and Jake Gyllenhaal Dad, a ship for which I now must write copious amounts of fanfic.
- Jake Gyllenhaal’s deranged dangling mustache.
- Anna Mulaney making an appearance!!!
- honestly just the entire thing was great, and I need him to make more of these.
