Every Irish kid remembers Bosco, everyones favourite little redhaired rosey cheeked jack in the box. He/She took us on magical adventures, taught us how to make paper maché and sang songs about being road safe.
Everyone knew that after the cameras stopped rolling Bosco hit the bottle hard and was pretty difficult to work with, why else do you think they had so many actors work with him/her.
We expose other Puppets all around the world for the racist, bomb making, wild and dangerous little wooden/rubber/foam/sock creatures they are!
Devised and made by Niall Cicierega, an American comedian and filmmaker, Potter Puppet Pals exposes the dark and sometimes terrifying reality about life at Hogwarts. It shows the characters for who they really are once the Hollywood glamour fades and the sets fall silent.
Potter Puppet Pals originally started as a flash animation seven years ago but they didn’t prove too popular and so were recreated for YouTube as real live puppets.
Nothing says racism more than a man with his hand shoved up the puppet corpse of a dead Islamic terrorist. Achmed the Dead Terrorist and his creator Jeff Dunham have had audiences choking with laughter and countries seething with rage. Dunham doesn’t just try to offend Arab nations, the man pokes fun at Christians, black people, white people, gay people, old people, straight people and drug addicts. He has received various awards but one that stands out most was his recognition by the Islamic Human Rights Commission in 2009 for his ‘outstanding islamophobia’
Spitting Image raised the bar for British comedy, the show was satire at it’s very best. Poking fun at Politicians, Royals and celebrities of the day, no subject was considered too taboo and no one was safe from the sarcastic and downright hilarious touch of the writers. The above sketch is a dig at Prince Andrew and Fergie’s lack of children and one possible reason why the two had yet to procreate.
Finishing with a racist tone, here the gang at Avenue Q, Broadway’s favourite show tell us all about racism and why everyone has a little racist inside of them…
