It wasn't funny? The parents hugging 5 times was mildly funny. There was just nothing else funny. It was off key in a poor way, the song was weak, the graphics were stupid (not so poor they were hilarious and not done in a humorous way), the 3 of them were just useless and really the whole concept just isn't even funny to begin with.
Also, ya momma.

Here's my two cents:
This was almost good up to the point where the kid breaks out of his closet in the shorts. I liked the triple hug, but that truly was the only funny bit.
This got stupid when the kid started to sing because there wasn't any funny reason for him to do it. And just a kid rapping (weakly) isn't funny period. And the ultra-high res graphics with the trumpet has been done to death and better in other videos. Just putting in ridiculous graphics for their own sake is sure-fire comedic death. It's a cop-out.
What would have been funnier would have been to have some real reason for the kid to wear the shorts, like the way UCB had the kid with the enormous penis and all the problems he faced.
Oh, and having the kid break out of this closet like he was coming through a WWF wall was not worth the effort.
In short (basketball short): things are funny the more believable they are. Humor comes from the tweaking of what we know as our daily reality, not full-blown weird overdone special effects and sudden graphic shifts. It takes more effort to take something simple and make it funny than just throw the kitchen sink ADD style at a video. This is why the triple-hug is the funniest part of this piece.
I'll be here for another 20 minutes to take a short Q and A Session before the next speaker, thank you.

It is weird that you reference Little Donny-- a kid with a disorder that gives him a penis the size of horse's while rendering him unaware of the size of his penis-- right before saying this.

True - but the reason Little Donny is funny at all is not because of his enormous penis, but how realistically everyone treats his ailment. The frustrated, caring parents, the way they turn it into a fundraiser - all of that is the funny. And anyone's who's witnessed any kind of disease telethon can relate and then get the joke.
That's what I meant by that. Next question.

I enjoyed the overwrought use of camera language, soundtrack, and melodramatic direction in the first half to repeatedly miscue the plain-faced banality of the action. I thought that was genuinely nice, well done commentary on the language of cinema and by extension a critique of the cheap domestic dramatics of e.g. the Lifetime channel.
I enjoyed the second half because it was likeably stupid the way a lot of Tim & Eric stuff is likeably stupid; that Fensler writes for them is news to me but utterly not a surprise all things considered.
I don't feel like the two halves were well married. It was two ideas with abrupt transition, and that transition in a different piece of work might have killed but here it just felt like a handwave segue. Eh.
I liked Fensler's GI Joe bits better than I liked this, but I love those things more than just about anything else anyone has ever made so that's not really a very meaningful comparison.

What these people needed was a voice coach. And a fashion consultant. Maybe a special effects supervisor. Definitely a script editor. And a cameo or two from The Lonely Island. The acting and sound were great though. I liked the cinematography.

Some friends sent this around a few weeks ago on Facebook and I just didn't get it! I can see why it's funny to some people, so I wouldn't call it "bad." But I feel like I just don't get the humor, apart from the frequent hugging, as others have mentioned. Also I felt like the bits of dialogue didn't really fit together. Why was the father going to go into the bathroom? Why did Billy burst out of it? Ugh, head hurts, don't get it. I'm feeling square!

"One!" = "Alright, Mister."
"Two!" = "What do you think you're doing?"
"Two and a half!" = "You call this a room?"
[look of disgust by wife] = [snickering from younger brother at dinner table]
"Three!" = "Whadda you wanna do with your life?"
[breaks through closed door, repeated horn bleats] = "I wanna rock! [dad out window]

Cool! I didn't like it because I didn't find it funny or well-made. The acting was poor and uneven, the casting weird (with the towel thing making me wonder if "Billy" was going to turn out to be a girl, and the over-arching confusion of having him be clearly of different ethnicity from his parents, but whatever, I can move past all of that.) The bit with the hugs almost worked. It was the closest the thing came to humor, but even there it was too inept to truly land it. And the transition didn't work because the set-up didn't properly build tension and the "pay-off" shot was a split-second which didn't give us a moment to revel in it before going into a tired and trite bad-effects-ridden shit-rap thing that was painful in the bad way, and not the funny way.
And all of that is compounded by the fact that none of the idea in this were worthwhile in the first place. The whole thing smelled like two or three guys who thought something was really, really funny when they were baked, and if you don't agree then you're square. That smell is very similar to patchoulli, and I hate the smell of patchoulli.
I'm normally not this guy, but this video's a special case. I'd be curious to see possible justifications for why people liked this.

I generally don't like Tim and Eric, but I liked this a little more than I usually don't like their stuff.
The kid was funny. Huge basketball shorts are funny. I just don't like the whole "so awkwardly bad it's good" approach in general.

Thank you for linking to that Rachael Ray drinking game. I know what I'm doing tonight.

To this day just thinking of the words "Pork chop sandwiches?" is enough to make me chuckle to myself.
I'll have to look at this when I'm not in the office.
And I had no idea Eric Fensler was the Eric in Tim & Eric.

To be clear, Eric Wareheim is the Eric in Tim & Eric. Eric Fensler is a writer who is also named Eric.

If you like Tim & Eric, then you'll probably get (at the very least) a chortle out of the video. If you don't like them, or god forbid haven't even heard of them, then you won't like the video. It's a strange taste, but me likey.
