I thought that Thomas Lennon and Weird Al were the only funny ones in the video. Loved Al's outfit, but Thomas' speech was much funnier than Al's was.

Humor is subjective. I get what they were saying, just didn't think it was funny. And Al? Stop with the dead pelts on your head.

That's why there's a rating system on the bottom. It's a democratic site. A lot of the videos on FOD are bad. Weird was one of their best though.

I agree about the dead pelts

That wig did Al no favors.

I thought it did him the favor of making the bit funnier. I doubt the wardrobe people were thinking "Let's make sure Al looks as attractive as possible for his many female fans" considering he was portraying a redneck.

Agreed. I think the point was to make Al look like an ugly, ignorant redneck...and they succeeded.

Same here - I thought that Thomas Lennon's bit was the only funny part of the video.

In my opinion Al should continue wearing wigs in both his own videos and other projects, a tradition dating as far back as "Ricky."

I don't mind the good ones. It's the lame ugly ones I don't like. He is funny enough, he doesn't have to resort to cheezy dead pelts for a laugh.
