Key & Peele: Seasons One & Two

This is a great collection because you can see the progress Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key made from the first to the second season. The two originally met as cast members on Mad TV and then launched their own series in 2012.Season 1 has a great start with skits about Lil Wayne being in prison, reality TV cooking shows, a mama joke competition between a doctor and the son of a patient, etc., but the standout sketch was President Obama and his anger translator Luther who appeared several times. Along the way there were some stinkers however.In Season 2 they got more consistent. The opening is Key and Peele acting as hitmen who get disrupted by a piano, birds, and other interferences. There’s Jesus, Mary and a pimp Gala Leroy, Joseph a man who can’t dance trying out for a reality dance show, and that was all just in the first episode. There were still some failures in there but they were fewer and farther between the good ones compared to the first season. The best of the best were the names of black football players, a return of Pres. Obama and Luther his anger translator, and two substitute teacher pieces.Overall, a great collection.

With 18 episodes of a great show for (currently) $17, the value/cost ratio of this disc set is already pretty huge, and the solid extras put it over the top. Season one has four commentaries, some small featurettes and a decent collection of outtakes. The second season unfortunately dropped the commentaries, but they replaced them with the Vandaveon & Mike webisodes, which are 3-minute sketches where two idiots (played by K&P) offer constructive criticism of the show.As for the show itself, it's great -- best sketch comedy show currently running, if you ask me. The first season was solid and had a lot of good stuff in it, but the second was where the show really came into its own. Something Key and Peele really excel at is the short sketch. Whereas a lot of sketch comedy winds up running premises into the ground and stretching everything out to be four or five minutes long, a lot of Key and Peele's best scenes last two minutes or less, and very rarely does a sketch feel like it goes on too long. Their sketches are not only hilarious and clever, but also well-produced. The show's aesthetics are like none I've seen in any other sketch show, thanks to the masterful direction of Peter Atencio. Whether it's a Power Rangers spoof, an unearthed home video of a young Barack Obama, an even older video of a man at a civil rights rally trying to speak after Dr. King, a scene where an aging Rambo-type considers returning to active duty, or the famous "football player names" sketch; pretty much everything looks just like it should. But most importantly, it's just a really, really funny show.

i loved watching this show on tv and wanted the combo since i saw it on shelves at a wal-mart. love it so far!one thing to note for all future buyers(it is already mentioned in the discussion below) but the set has is labeled as 4 discs, which is false it only comes with 2(1 per season). it is a little off putting because when you look at the season 2 disc it says "season 2 disc 1". it seems everything thing is there the only thing i am confused about on season 2 are some of the episodes dont seem to be the same on IMDB/wiki. for example it says season 2 episode 3 on the disc is "country music" but on wiki and imdb it says its "Puppy Dog Ice-T". maybe i am missing something but otherwise great set!

My wife was talking to me the other day about how she like Key and Peele. I JUST bought the DVDs and was excited to watch them. Then she changed her mind and don't wanna watch them no more. I couldn't believe it. Bruh, I looked at her dead in the eye...I'm talking right in her eye sockets....and I said......I said...

One of the funniest shows ever. But the blu-ray presentation is weird. It says there are 4 discs but its only 2. Season 2 is not available separately so if you already bought Season 1 you own it twice. Season 1 is the same exact disc that's sold separately. I'm glad I waited and didn't buy Season 1. Also Season 2 says "Disc 1" on it. They might have re-used the label from the DVD version. Season 2 Disc 2 blu-ray doesn't exist. I'll wait and see if they'll combine Seasons 3 & 4 before buying Season 3 separately.

When I need a hearty laugh, I put these on. They also motivated me to see Peele's "Get Out," accompanied by the Chicago Sinfonietta.

Happy with first 3 discs but could never get 4th one to work.:( New set, sealed so I know notvendors fault. Just bad set.

Each episode of K&P must be viewed more than once because it is difficult to watch both faces at the same time. Both faces are perfect in their roles, talents, exchanges, and it does take at least a 2nd watching to catch everything. Each is a perfect talent in their own, together is a hit. They may be a 'short run', but each episode will become CLASSIC.

Saw clips of this on TV on comedy central, looked it up to see what the show was called. Hasn't been broadcast here in the UK i don't think, so i thought yep lets see what its like. So glad i did, excellent sketches throughout. Hilarious stuff

Love these two. Just beware if you're buying from the UK as this CD is not deigned for that region. May need a specialist DVD player.

very funny, loved them on Mad TV

very nice i liiiiike
