List of Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! Sketches and Characters - Sketches

Sketches

• Uncle Muscle's Hour: Casey Tatum and his Brother (portrayed by Heidecker and Wareheim) perform various live songs lampooning telethon musical acts. The skit is carried over from a series of promos for Tim and Eric's previous collaborative effort Tom Goes to the Mayor. Casey is portrayed as having a very bad case of Eczema, is often covered with sweat, tears, and/or saliva, and is usually uncomfortable, easily overcome with extreme, debilitating stage fright, and often on the threshold of either crying or vomiting, usually both. Casey's brother either dances, acts out the song, or plays saxophone next to Casey, wearing dark sunglasses and usually wearing a black unitard. Casey died in the second season in a fiery car crash at the age of 17, however, he re-appeared in the next season. In the season five episode "Re-animated," Casey's disassembled remains were found in the woods by a young girl, and reassembled by Casey's brother. However, during the duo's Uncle Muscles comeback appearance, Casey's body fell apart limb by limb. The titular host of the show was played by "Weird Al" Yankovic.
• Brule's Rules with Dr. Steve Brule: An inept news reporter/doctor (played by John C. Reilly) who often appears uncomfortable being on air. He is featured in a number of the sketches alongside the Channel 5 Married News Team. This segment lampoons the do-it-yourself segments featured on many local news stations. Brule seems uncontrollably attracted to his Channel 5 co-host Jan Skylar, whose husband, Wayne, disapproves of his advances toward her. His catchphrase is "For Your Health!" which is said at the end of his segments. The spin-off of Tim and Eric, Check It Out! with Dr. Steve Brule is somewhat of an extension of the Brule's Rules segments.
• Cinco: Carried over from Tom Goes to the Mayor, the Cinco Family/Corporation parodies the typical "soul-less corporations." Their cache consists of satirical products marketed with the name "Cinco Chemicals and Toy Division." Companies owned by the Cinco Family include Cinco Dairy, Cinco Sweets, Cinco Home Entertainment, Cinco Banking, Cinco Insurance, Cinco Styles, Cinco Chemicals and Toy Division, and other canon and non-canon subsidiaries. The commercials and infomercials use green screen and special effects with the intent of mimicking the standard format of infomercials from the late 1980s and early 1990s, often lampooning technology from the same era (such as the Cinco MIDI Organizer). Generally, the goods and services sold by Cinco companies are an assortment of seemingly useless products. The product names are often a simple contraction of two words, resulting in very unappealing names such as T'ird (A feathered flying disc with the legs of a turtle), B'ougar (a stuffed bear with the growl of a cougar), and B'owl (a stuffed animal meant to resemble a combination of a bat and an owl). See List of Cinco Family Products.
• Channel 5 Kid Break: A series of pseudo-educational musical segments in which two "children" (Heidecker and Wareheim) rap about personal hygiene and family situations such as sitting down on the toilet while urinating, wearing your father's dirty socks, incest (having a crush on your sister), not wiping one's rear end, bloody nipples, and eating one's boogers.
• Afternoon Review: A daytime show "for women" in which strange men do surreal, odd, and slightly disturbing musical material such as a distorted guitar player, a mime who makes inhuman noises, convulsing men, belly dancing, sub-conscious memory exploration through odd noises, incomprehensible opera singing, drum solos by an old man, and dazed chanting. All of these bizarre performances take place in a room with a single stage, decorated with blue curtains with stars and balloons placed throughout it.
• Child Showcase: A poorly archived Channel 5 program on which "children" (an adult's head - including Rainn Wilson and Patton Oswalt - superimposed over a child's body) perform musical numbers that are somewhat inappropriate in subject matter, much to the chagrin of the host. Child Showcase is typical of many Tim and Eric television programs in that it appears to be played back from worn, low-quality video tape, visually evoking the low-budget programs of Public-access television.
• Video Match: A Dating Service: A series of dating service videos featuring undesirable men looking for love. Such men, who are shown with compressed faces and prominent moustaches, include one with petite, feminine feet and another who is a gamer with only a "tip" for a penis (Rainn Wilson).
• Grum: Grum first appeared in season 1 as a badly rendered animated CGI character who sings songs about how he likes 'crackers and snacks'. He then appeared for the second time in season 4 with Glen Tennis in which they discuss their new animated (also badly rendered) movie "Pillgrums".
• Karaoke Legends: A segment involving bizarre karaoke songs about subjects such as adultery, stalking, and living in an apartment with one's father. An elderly woman named Ruth Carr is featured prominently in two of the segments.
• Steve Mahanahan's Child Clown Outlet: Appeared in Season 1, 3, and Cinco as a series of advertisements in which Eric Wareheim portrays the eccentric owner of a retailer that sells children dressed as clowns for the use of the buyer's amusement. In his commercials he is always shown with constant visual effects and video glitching. He also gave Casey Tatum a ride in the season 1 episode, 'Missing'. Steve Mahanahan also has a brother named Mike (played by Tim) who appeared in one episode and sells shoes for the aforementioned child clowns and like his brother is constantly featured in his commercials with video glitching. Often the two brothers profess their love for each other and their endorsement of their brother's store. In season 5, Steve Mahanahan was arrested for touching a child clown and Mike Mahanahan was shot in the face for no discernible reason. With these two gone, their father Donald Mahanahan (played by Will Ferrell) took over the business breeding child clowns. Donald Mahanahan breeds the clowns using his own seed and women who possess "real clown traits".
• Morning Meditation: Introduced in Season Cinco, this segment is similar to "Afternoon Review" where surreal and somewhat disturbing "meditations" take place involving such things as a woman making strange grunting noises and a man on stilts flailing about.
• All Dolled Up: Another surreal sketch featuring two men sitting in a studio makeup room wearing inordinate amounts of makeup put on them by women in black outfits while discussing and one upping each other on various achievements throughout their respective careers in show business. They always end the show with a fist pound.

Occasionally a sketch will end with a freeze frame; the colors fade to black and white, and a voice announces, "Great job!" while these words are written over the frame.
