Please enjoy what could very well be a sketch series pilot for Big Grande.

In the same ballpark of IFC’s Comedy Crib, Funny or Die has their own sketch group incubation initiative with the Funny or Die Test Tube. They handpick groups and then give them a little scratch and they put together sketches and whatever else they want to put together.

UCB’s Big Grande put together over 20 minutes worth of sketches that we’d love to see be a pilot somewhere.

Watch it here.

Don’t worry, that’s a good thing.

Just watch what would happen if a cat could talk and the inevitable break up that would ensue thanks to Practical Folks.
