In the second episode of Funny Or Die Original Sketches season 1, titled The Time Travel Dietician, viewers are treated to a hilarious take on what would happen if time travel were combined with the always popular diet industry. With a runtime of just over five minutes, this sketch packs a huge punch with its clever writing and talented cast.

The sketch begins with a woman named Karen visiting a dietician's office. As she expresses her frustration with her inability to lose weight, the dietician reveals that she has a solution - time travel. With the help of a time machine conveniently located in the corner of her office, the dietician sends Karen on a journey through time to visit her past selves and find out what went wrong with her diet in previous years.

What follows is a hilarious series of scenes as Karen visits versions of herself from different times in her life. From her teenage years spent eating junk food with friends to her twenties filled with late-night snacking, Karen discovers that her poor dietary choices have been plaguing her for years. But each time she returns to the present, the dietician is there to offer sage advice and a new diet plan based on Karen's findings.

Throughout the sketch, the writing is clever and witty, with plenty of jokes that will have viewers laughing out loud. The cast is also top-notch, with each actor bringing something unique to their role. The dietician, played by the talented Sarah Burns, is particularly funny, with her deadpan delivery and no-nonsense attitude providing the perfect foil to Karen's frustration.

But perhaps the real standout of the sketch is its use of time travel as a comedic tool. The idea of visiting past versions of oneself in order to solve a present-day problem is a classic trope of time travel stories, but The Time Travel Dietician puts a unique spin on it with its focus on dieting. By showing how Karen's dietary choices have evolved (or devolved) over time, the sketch not only provides plenty of laughs, but also a surprisingly insightful commentary on our societal obsession with food and weight loss.

Overall, The Time Travel Dietician is a must-watch for fans of sketch comedy. With its clever writing, talented cast, and unique use of time travel as a comedic device, it's a hilarious and thought-provoking take on the diet industry that is sure to delight viewers.
