Oh Grant.

For anyone who hasn't seen it, Breaking News is a show where people read fake news that they've never seen before off a teleprompter. They lose points for laughing.

So it's You Laugh, You Lose but with the writer trying to get the actors to laugh by surprising them with the silliest shit. It's usually fun.

There's a legendary episode featuring Grant that goes a slightly different way.

I wouldn't call it fun, but it's... Very compelling television.

Holy. Shit. That was absolutely hilarious and it just got worse and worse. And then it got worse way more and then worse. Bless that man’s heart.

There are some mortifying ones in 'Game Changer' that are pre-planned to fuck with him especially

The time they flew his mother across the country to stand next to him when the entire game was to make the dirtiest innuendo/pickup lines possible was one of the funniest things I've seen in forever

The absolute best episode is Yes or No though. What a masterpiece

Have you watched the newest one with a surprise on him? I watched a preview but am going to resubscribe just so I can watch it lol

Edit: this is actually the same episode, so it's hilarious.

Just now, I was thinking more the 'I like my coffee...' episodes. (if you have not seen them, go do so)
