2 Guys

Two Guys Drinking At A Bar rarely pass the two-minute mark, but is jam packed with jokes and cultural references.

The web-based program has become a running parody of conventional television shows. Riffing on over-the-top, melodramatic television shows, episodes 3 and 4, dubbed "The Joke Initiative," exaggerate the style of climatic cliffhangers popular on Lost. Episode 14 (above) spoofs Battlestar Galactica, from the dramatic score and fast-paced opening credits to the closing credits' goofy gore. There are also Easter eggs within the show for eagle-eyed viewers to catch -- like phone numbers and e-mail addresses so fans can reach the characters. Mike Nichols puts the show together with help from stars Kevin Farley and Paul Preston.
