Mitchell & Webb's BBC 2 Skit - What I Reckon - brilliant
Image Source: Reportr.net
As I have written previously, these guys are hilarious. Latest skit I caught last night mocks the mainstream news media's sometimes overzealous pursuit of man-on-the-street (or person-at-the-keyboard?) reactions. I couldn't find an embeddable version of the clips, so I'll direct you here to see it.
For my money, this excerpt is some of the best, dead-on satire I've ever seen:
"What possible reason could there be for you to not email us? Certainly ignorance shouldn’t be a bar. You might not know anything about the issue, but I bet you reckon something. So why not tell us what you reckon? Let us enjoy the full majesty of your uniformed, ad hoc reckon by going to bbc.co.uk/meandmyimportantthoughts (all one word), clicking on ‘What I Reckon’ and simply beating on the keyboard with your fists or head."

More Good Comedy from Current, Plus a Lookalike
Sergio's White Hot Top 5 makes me laugh again. This time with their top 5 patriotic songs edition:
Also, it has finally dawned on me who Sergio looks like. He's kind of the modern day hipster version of Jim Croce.

Lookalikes: Ed Begley Jr. = Boomer Esiason + Beano Cook
I'm watching a little bit of Living With Ed when it dawns on me that Ed Begley Jr. looks like some kind of cross between Boomer Esiason and Beano Cook.
UPDATE: (7/20/08) - This comparison really works best if you actually hear Ed speaking and know what Beano sounds like.
