These classic twisted sketches convinced us: The Kids are alright. from Time Out New York

SKOORA, The Gentle Shark
One night Mcdonald arrives at a seaside inn full of mutilated (but still smiling) vacationers-all victims of the conflicted Skoora, who maims his prey but can't possibly kill. One armless biologist recalls,"As he swam away with my lower extremities dangling from his jaw, I swear to God he was crying."

COMFORTABLE
Two married couples are at a dinner party when one man pushes the limits of decency by having sex on the dining-room table-with his host's wife. The other wife continues in polite conversation with the cuckolded husband, smiling even as he reveals that he's impotent and that back in college he used to drink human blood.

JESUS WAS A BAD CARPENTER
Foley plays ab archeologist who finds a cache of poorly-made wooden artifacts--a two-legged table, a cock-eyed spice rack--that he says were built by Jesus Christ. He concludes that although Christ eventually became the Messiah, clearly he was not a very good carpenter.

CHICKEN LADY'S DATE
In an early Chicken Lady sketch, Foley arrives at the apartment of McKinney's sex-starved, bird-brained freak for a blind date. For dinner, she serves an omelette, "fresh out of my body and onto the plate."

DADDY DRANK
From the perspective of a young boy in bed, we see Dad (Foley) stumbling in each night. He taunts his son with threats ("I could murder you while you sleep") as narrator Mcdonald reminds us, "Daddy drank." Horribly eerie-and somehow hysterically funny.

GAVIN AND THE CHAIR PAINTER
Remember American Pie' s  "One time, in band camp" girl? Gavin-McCulloch's precocious boy who speaks with an annoying rising inflection and eats only onions-is worse. Here, as an unlucky hungover guy (McKinney) tries to paint a chair, the tyke drones, "One Summer? One time? My dad and I built a veranda? Without any tools."

BILLY DREAMER
Billy Dreamer, he dreams average dreams. With his buddies, crowded onto a tiny couch in front of the TV, Mcdonald's Billy drifts into a fantasy about a better life than this-one in which he has a big beanbag chair all for himself.

DAVE'S A BAD DOCTOR
Foley walks out of an operating room, his scrubs covered in blood. "I'm a bad doctor," says the chief of surgery who cheated his way through med school. He made it, he says, because he was so popular, even teachers gave him the answers. "I figured, how far can you coast on charm? Well, pretty far, actually."--BC
