I died when stacey chased his car down the street cause he took the toilet paper, and stephen just screamed. he is honestly the most hilarious cast member when it comes to reactions
@@HeyAdamBerg also my favorite part of the video. I didn't know you liked minecraft so much. What is the coolest thing you have ever built in minecraft?
OMG when Whitney said she’s the modified version I was like “Is that an intentional reference to the P90x sketch they did in their Studio C days or was it pure accidental genius?!?”
I find it ironic that Stephen stole toilet paper since in Studio C in the Least Known Greek God He`s Hopernicus, God of running out of toilet paper. 😂😂😂
Stephen: “So this dare, is life or death” *throws toilet paper intensely in the garbage can* I felt like it needed a slow motion replay for that exact moment he threw it in 😂😂
Mall : how hard can it be? Matt: how hard ... oh you're right I just had to change the atomic structure of the straw through nuclear fusion just let me get my centrifuge... am I the only one who freaking love that part and watched it a thousand times?oh ok then.
@@miriamjesse1628 it's a thing that spins really fast so that heavy things go to the inside and lighter things go to the outside. It's used in chemistry pretty often, to seperate different chemicals, like in something like blood, for example. All the cells would go towards the end bottom end of the tube, while lighter things like water would stay up top. It's pretty useful and pretty cool to see in action. I recommend looking up videos about it. Very interesting stuff! C:
I never had my gaydar go off around him, but maybe that’s because before I found this channel he was always in character, not playing himself. Honestly, I can’t see how i never noticed before lmao
1) the noises during the push ups 😂 2) Having the casts comments on the Jason fashion show was amazing 3) Stephen going all Jason Bourne on his toilet paper heist was hilarious 4) Who needs James and the Giant Peach when you have James and the 5/6 chickens?
James: "Here's you go, chickens. What are you going to do now?" Chickens: All but two promptly rush right past him. I think that they got you more than you got them!
hold. up. whit had a crush on trevor cox??? I babysit for him and his wife!! they live down the street from me and we are in the same ward! I knew he used to be av for divine comedy but HOLY COW Edit: turns out they dated for a while. Small world
The Bible doesn't think so.... It specifically condemns men dressing in women's clothing. God would not be pleased with us doing this "for fun." Especially since they claim to be religious.
@@samuelshepherd1868 nobody cares dude nobody.this is just a dare.but besides that plz stop hating and let people do what they want to do.it's not gonna hurt anyone so chill out.there are a lots of men out there who like and want to do this kinda stuff because they enjoy doing it.so stop labeling and judging people.let them enjoy their life the way they want and you can enjoy your life the way you like.in the end we are all human and that's the only thing that matters.
@@ladyrosenrot1514 There are so many problems with what you just said. The first is that a lot of people care. Just about every Christian in fact. I'm also not hating, I'm just expressing a belief that I have on a subject backed by what I think is solid truth (But I totally get it if you don't feel the same way). I never labeled anybody, never was unkind, never swore, I only spoke my opinion and you choose to chew me out??? And no, I'm not going to lay back and allow people to destroy the world with whatever they deem is "right". If someone finds murder fun, I'm not going to let them have at it and shoot my family. Never. You're right, we're all human... and that's the problem. As humans we tend to not give a second thought to rules and truths and we do whatever pleasures us. I'm here to say there is a moral standard we need to live by and we can't just all live so happily doing our own thing. The world doesn't work that way.
Well i try to report them but no use. One of the main reason many people watch is many in my country don't know English so they have to rely on some channel. Even if most page dont give credit
That was a ton of fun, and even a little tense! I hope the JK crew is safe and keep safe and happy through these times, I hope the best for you all. Thank you for the fun video, smiles and laughs!
5:38 ....i had forgotten that stacy had come out and when he said that he literally made me cry, thank you for just being so casual about it and not making it a big deal, its really appreciated by a lot of people :D
@@David98004 i cried because i wish everyone i came out to still talked to me and still wanted to be around me and still wanted to be my friend also because im so proud of him and i know how hard it is for a lot of people to do that. he totally could have just kept it to himself. seeing a member of the church come out is a big deal
I was there at the Divine Comedy show with the Matt masks. I thought it was hilarious when he stabbed one with a pencil, because he was the Joker and he was demonstrating a magic trick. Man, I have followed you guys for a LONG time! Also, I need to watch this with sound when I am not next to my sleeping babies. They both end up in my bed when my husband gets up at 6.

This made my day!
For the record, I *DID* notice the missing toilet paper. But I had no idea Stephen stole it.
Hi!
Sure you did...
Lol
Might have changed your answer to killing Stephen if you knew it was him?
Did u get it back?
I petition for JK studios to start selling Matt masks as merch
Yessss!!
Consider this your second
Third!
And this is your fourth!
Count this as a signature
"My Mind can do 35 more push ups."
One Second later: "Maybe it can't."
So relatable.
Dude I can't crank out 2 so Matt is seriously impressive.
@@syberyah I'm not saying it's not impressive, it is.
I just thought it was a funny quote and showed that he doesn't even have to try to be funny

Can't agree more!
@@HeyAdamBerg also my favorite part of the video. I didn't know you liked minecraft so much. What is the coolest thing you have ever built in minecraft?
1:40: So that’s how Matt trained for the P90X sketch
Lizard Brick I was totally thinking the same thing!😂
Haha Yes!
Ikr
That was like their third video tho
I did our version of the p90x for a school talent show and we won the funniest act!
2:45 flashback to season 1 Studio C “Mallory over here doing modified version” * Mallory eats chocolate *
I thought about the same skit
I was getting the P90X vibes.
Warrior 1
Same
I thought the same thing
OMG when Whitney said she’s the modified version I was like “Is that an intentional reference to the P90x sketch they did in their Studio C days or was it pure accidental genius?!?”
Idk but there are a ton of references so I’m thinking....... they are subconsciously geniuses.

Wonder if he knows they paralyze when you hold them upside down by their claws...

Hi! I loved your video!
Natalie Madsen stay safe Natalie!!!
It makes you want to start another comedy group for all the cabin fever induced ideas
I find it ironic that Stephen stole toilet paper since in Studio C in the Least Known Greek God He`s Hopernicus, God of running out of toilet paper. 😂😂😂
Nice reference!
You just tacked the word ironic to an unrelated sentence. That is in fact not ironic, just interesting. IRONY TAUGHT!
@@Aazu10015 wait your catch phrase is irony taught. You dont even have the powers to restore balance. That's Ironic.

U dont thinks it possible to do that honestly😂
OMG JEREMY is so shaggy
Does anyone remember when jeremy had a massive stache and a bowl cut

Nice pfp
Yea
YAS HE LOOKS LIKE LIKE A PHILLIPINO GANDALF.
@fierro x chase YES
DIE WUNNA WANGA
Fun fact: the more push ups Matt does the more he sounds like he inhaled helium
Have you heard of editing
Jason: 9:22 "These days, [stealing toilet paper] is like stealing someone's baby"
Stephen: 10:37 *proceeds to throw away 6 babies into garbage bin*
*oh no you didn't*
The Matt meese masks are one of the scariest things I’ve ever seen 😂😂
You should see him in real life. :/
*beautiful
HAHAHA YOU ARE WELCOME
Natalie Madsen thank you 🙏🏻
Yet also the best
Adam: gets done explaining how he would kill someone
Also Adam: laughs maniacally in a "nonsuspucious" way
What/ who is Mycroft?
matt while quarantined: *does 100 pushups*
me while quarantined: *hides in blankets and watches disney plus*
I could not relate any more than I already do
Same honey😂👏
Same, finally catching up on the Gravity Falls I've missed out on
I don’t have Disney plus and it’s sad
@@snowinthesummertimed9269 Netflix
James herding his chickens was the best thing I’ve seen since being quarantined, thank you JK Studios
Ok who else got a ad for lume with Stacey and Whitney?
Same!
I did
At the very start
Right in the middle of the video! They only come whenever I watch JK Studios though.
Glenn Bunderson me! And I loved it 😆
Are we just gonna ignore the fact that Whitney did 100+ pushups without even complaining?!?!?!?
Yes because, no offense, she didn't go down very far and was resting on her knees throughout. But still, not something I'd choose to do lol
She didn’t do it correctly Matt did it way harder
I couldn't do the modified ones without complaining so like... Hats off!
Stephen: “So this dare, is life or death”
*throws toilet paper intensely in the garbage can*
I felt like it needed a slow motion replay for that exact moment he threw it in 😂😂
Romni Allen I’ve let ya down 😫😫😫
*stacey sprints after car*
😂😂
Then he went back to grab the toilet paper
Stephen you bad!
Great job!
James chasing the chickens is the quality content I never asked for and will always be happy that I saw
OOOHHHHH Look at the form of those pushups! That is no squeak, but a WARCRY OF PERFECTION from...
SCOTT! STERLING!
The man! The myth! The legend!
I want to like this more than once
Lol, at least he didn't require a stretcher to remove him from the field this time... ; )
$5 says Adam would end up poisoning himself accidentally!!
Lolllll
I mean according to Stacey, Adam has really bad luck, so...I'd take that bet😂
Is it just me or does Jeremy look like Moses with his giant beard
He does!
Where’s my duck - that’s fair
But you know what I mean
He so does he is a modern moses
😂
I was so surprised when Jeremy showed up. From the angle, he looked like a giant like Hagrid. 😂
When Stacey ran after the car to get his toilet paper back made me so scared he was actually going to get it!
For sure thought Adam was about to commit mass murder because he loved everyone equally
It *may* have crossed my mind.
Scott Allan 😳😳😳
Adam Berg 😂😂
Scott Allan ME TOO LOL
Same!
“Or Stephen cause he’s allergic to dogs and.... I just can’t fix that.”
How is Matt so good at pushups like...????
I was not expecting that at all

Relatable 😂
Tori Pence ...sending out an SOS?

Its nice to have a bit of comedy when we are all in a tough spot as they say laughter is the best medicine
Hope this helps! Hang in there!
Hopefully not long to go and with brilliant videos like this the time will fly by
But every time you laugh you gain ten pounds...
@@UrFavBrunette_dancer what? That can't be true, that makes no sense
My daughter is really concerned, Mallory. Did you wash your feet before you ate the banana!?!?
"Oh, that's not a chicken, that's a watering can."
Makes me wonder if James needs glasses.....😂
Soo relatable
Faith Marshall I think the quarantine is messing with his brain...
Timestamp?
I don’t know either
People make fun of Matt's size, but the dude is in pretty good shape.
Is it just me or does James talking to those chickens sound like Lobster Bisque Guy?
This is SO GREAT XDXD When Stacey came bolting out after Steven, oh man I would have been genuinely terrified, he is FAST
Truth or dare is supposed to be between 2 terrible options, but Natalie's truth was just an excuse to torture Matt.
HAHAHA you got me!
Natalie Madsen exposed!
The bit with James and the chickens was my favorite.
When James was trying to hold all of his chickens at once he sounded like that one three year old who tortured all his pets
*CoMe HeRe ChIcKeNs*
Oh my gosh thank you so much for posting. I was really sad about quarantine and no school and stuff and you immediately brightened my day. Thank you.
There were actually 7 chickens if you count James
Yes gurl!!
Lol! *slow clap*
I feel bad for him though I have 9 chickens so I get where he is coming from.
Look at all tose thickens
Stacy: "... I'd still be gay."
Me: *"that's a twist" detective pikachu meme*
I wasn't sure if I heard him right at first. I had no idea
Same. But now I see it so hard

Jason is so good at playing Jeremy! He even grew the moustache!!!
He really commits
So dedicated
I even made him dye it.
Meanwhile Jeremy is slowly turning into Cthulu...
Wait a minute... who plays Jeremy’s UA-cam account?
1) the noises during the push ups 😂 2) Having the casts comments on the Jason fashion show was amazing 3) Stephen going all Jason Bourne on his toilet paper heist was hilarious 4) Who needs James and the Giant Peach when you have James and the 5/6 chickens?
Adam’s murder plot is a little too genius... 👀
Nothing to see here~~~
Adam Berg *stare*
He has been planning for awhile
It may be coincidental but the murder plot is the same as one of Agatha Christie's murder mystery books xD
Stephen and Stacey jazzercising in the background of Matt's dare is a mood! 😂
When James said "this is gonna be easy" Then walked into a tree, I felt that haha.
"This is gonna be easy, bring it on"
