"Potatoes! You got 'em, I want 'em! Potatoes! Pass 'em over here!"

Songs Of The Stutterer
The f-f-fabulous new anthology from K-K-K-K-K-Tel.

This Is An Action Movie
The critically-acclaimed sketch in which we hear the inner thoughts of generic action movie characters: the bitter, cannon-fodder mentor, the naīve yet well-endowed love interest, the hero brimming with machismo and the Asian mob boss and kung fu master. John Woo movies will never seem the same.

ACT TWO

	The Bad News From the drug traffic report to the weather-and-war update, this intrepid news team keeps us in the know.
	Coffee Bitch All the whitener, none of the whitey.
	The Fairy Godfather A mafioso who isn't afraid to wear taffeta.
	The Mechanical Suite A storyteller reveals to us through song and dance how he went from failing out of Engineering Science to great success in Mechanical Engineering. Features the songs One (Single Integration), Further (I Wanna Transfer To Mechanical), and Let's Talk About Mechs.
	The Worst Pick-up Line In Ancient Rome "What's a virgin like you doing in a temple like this?"
	Rock Lyrics A sketch where every character (except one) speaks in 80's rock lyrics.
	Movie Execs A group of network execs come up with next season's blockbuster: "Sinkhole. Sink it before it sinks you."
	Star Wars Episode VII: The Empire Strikes Back To The Future. The sci-fi epic in which the characters from the original Star Wars trilogy go back in time to Episode I. When Queen Amidala falls in love with Luke, it creates a temporal paradox that only Doc Brown-- I mean, Ben Kenobi can solve. But not before he instructs young Obi-Wan in the ways of Freedom 55. This sketch featured a huge collection of costumes and a plethora of props: Jabba the Hutt, the Milennium Falcon, light sabres, X-Wing and TIE fighters, and a remote-controlled, one-to-one scale model of R2-D2. It also included the Jedi council gospel classic A Light On The Good Side, and Ricky Martin singing his hit single Livin' La Vida Yoda.
	The Finale The cast of Skule^TM Nite 2001: A Space Comedy bid us adieu with the song Skule^TM Nite Time. So what's wrong with making not doing homework a joyous occasion?
