it's been like 11 months since the typical 100% Awesome video clips have been posted on YT for the TheOnion channel.

http://www.youtube.com/user/TheOnion

The "style" of their comedy has changed.

sadly.

No more 3 minute funnay within the fake-shows like "In The Know" or "Today Now!"


but I guess now, after all these years of free awesome, they're going for a more syndicate-able format, they are now on IFC as a 22 minute program. example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeSzlJEOzZY

'boy finds own real-life E.T.'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KCj_Klp8aY

one of the best "Today Now!" episodes ever imo




also, new: Shelby Cross; imagine Nancy Grace*, with the volume only slightly turned down, and the emotionalism/insanity... left at pretty much the same high degree.

* http://twitter.com/nancygrace09 or http://twitter.com/thenancygrace -- which of these is the real one, which is the parody?
