The Iliza Shlesinger Sketch Show Season 1 Episode 5 Episode 5

  • April 1, 2020

The Iliza Shlesinger Sketch Show has been a go-to for those looking for a hearty laugh and the fifth episode of season 1 has brought out more fun scenarios and characters. Episode 5 is an installment that is marked by an abundance of spontaneity and chaos. It's almost as if the show is a tightly-wound coil of energy, just waiting for the right time to spring loose.

The episode starts off with a funny sketch where Iliza and the other comedians are having a discussion on a couch. They're desperately trying to take love advice from each other and of course, it ends up in a hilarious disaster. Iliza's character, as usual, is a high-energy ball who never fails to deliver her lines with perfection. This sketch alone sets the tone for the rest of the episode - wild, wacky, and full of surprises.

In another segment, the audience is introduced to a character named Lil' Tony. Lil' Tony is one of the standout characters of the episode. He's a street kid who's always getting into trouble, thanks to his love for breaking and entering. In this sketch, he and his gang plan to steal a statue from a fancy hotel. The group has a fun banter and there's something incredibly charming about watching them work together.

The third big sketch is called "Mystery Team Murder Squad". It's a parody of all those shows that deal with murder mysteries. Members of the sketch comedy group dress up as detectives and go through a few scenarios that are hilariously over-dramatic. They consult with an inexperienced psychic and try to make sense of an obvious clue that circles around the wrong culprit. Fans of shows like CSI or Law and Order will appreciate this one for its playful take on a genre that has become familiar to us through the years.

One segment that will be remembered by audiences is the "Angry Dad" scene. Angry Dad is a character who is always extremely angry. You wouldn't think it's possible, but it turns out his family, wife and kids included, are just as angry as he is. This may be the most relatable sketch in the episode as everyone has probably experienced a family argument or two. The range of emotions and epic verbal outbursts will leave you laughing out loud.

Finally, the episode ends on a segment called "New Baby". It’s a hilarious take on new parents trying to figure out the right way to take care of their newborn. Iliza is in perfect form - her slapstick humor makes for an instant classic as she fumbles with a baby carrier while her husband perseveres through the trials of vacuuming. It’s a perfect ending sketch, pointing humorously at the naivete of fresh parents learning on the job.

Overall, episode 5 of The Iliza Shlesinger Sketch Show is all about outrageous and creative comedy. It reflects all the trends and trademark styles that fans know and love about Iliza. The absurdity level keeps peaking with each sketch, yet the humor remains brilliantly consistent throughout. It may be just what audiences need in this time of extended isolation - a bright, funny world to escape into.
