The puppeteer's timing on Jerry seems so good with Paul's dialogue for the character. I know there was a script but it works so well here.

Would have liked to see the commercials also!

Being a ventriloquist myself, it’s no problem to use my hand to sync my dialogue with the figure’s mouth, because it’s all me. But I can’t figure out how the guy manipulating Jerry is perfectly matching up with what Paul is speaking because he has no way of being inside Paul’s head as he thinks up quips on the spur of the moment!

Love the kid's NY accents.

It’s really hard to ignore the long hair stuck in the gate. Still a pretty funny show, though.

That was going to be my comment too.
