The Flying Liftboy

Pupil Abel is the victim of Laura's nasty prank, yet gets accidentally blamed and overreacts. His ma withdraws him from school and gets him a job as lift-boy. But its' a special lift: when he pushes the forbidden green button, it takes him, Laura, Jozias Tump and Maria Klaterhoen to Manhattan. There he's mistaken by a rich woman who looks like his mother for her long missing son Johnny. When a police helicopter comes to tow the lift cabin, the Dutchmen get back in. It takes them to a Latin American country, Perugona. The new revolutionary leader realizes presidents live about one year, so he gives the job to Mr. Tump, who saved his life. The news coverage attracts Abel's and Johnny's family, in time for an even weirder finale.

Jiskefet - Good Morning

Good morning, this morning! After six full-length (and sold out!) HMH performances of "The Do You Still Fucked Tour" with De Lullo's April last year, is now the turn of Edgar, Jos and Storm to make their appearance in a real Debtors / Creditors Musical. This DVD will report on the seven special performances. The characters can escape from their office life and with other types Jiskefet immerse themselves in a Van den Ende world. What the men do exactly, we can not tell yet, but it's at least as hilarious as Lullo's tour will be sure. Tsjesus!

De Lullo's

De Lullo's is a satirical series that parodies Dutch student fraternity culture. It follows three wealthy, arrogant, and lazy students living in a fraternity house. The sketches mock their elitism, misogyny, and detached lifestyle. I was made by the Dutch absurdist comedy show Jiskefet and originally aired on the VPRO network.

Debiteuren Crediteuren

Debiteuren Crediteuren is a satire of boring office life and repetitive corporate culture. The series focuses on three colleagues and their secretary working in a financial administration office. Each episode follows a rigid pattern: mundane small talk, bad jokes, office supplies obsession (like "stiften"), and lunch breaks involving specific sandwiches. I was made by the Dutch absurdist comedy show Jiskefet and originally aired on the VPRO network.

De Dierenwinkel

De Dierenwinkel (The Pet Shop) is a recurring sketch from the Dutch absurdist comedy show Jiskefet that aired between 1992 and 1995. It primarily features a pompous, eccentric shop owner (played by Herman Koch) and a polite, equally strange customer (played by Michiel Romeyn). Common plot points involve the customer seeking a specific or rare creature, only to be sold a completely different (and likely non-existent) animal described with bizarre biological "facts."
