Nature Footage: The Musical

A Week of Kindnessis an online sketch comedy group; among their bits, I found Nature Footage: The Musical to be the most amusing (albeit, a bit of a one note symphony).

A kind of weakness.

Is there a term for comedy that you enjoy on one level because it's a clever conceit but hate on another because it's not actually funny?

I've often wondered that myself, ah well, I'm sure the Germans have one.

I wanted to laugh. But alas, I did not.

Is there a word for the Germans having a word for everything?

Come on, that whale/seal part was pretty damn funny.

I should know better than to ever post anything I find amusing (even mildly) to Metafilter, the urge to chime in an point out how unfunny it is is a seemingly overpowerful human driver.

Sorry. That was my first snarky comment, I couldn't resist.

Really enjoyed it, especially that zebra. He totally stole the show.
