This season was a goldmine. If you want more of Jess, you can listen to her and Zach's podcast "Off Book: The Improvised Musical" wherever you get your podcasts.
1:03 the delivery of “portrait of a child on a pane of glass” is absolutely impeccable 😂 I know there’s a lot of hilariously dumb bits in Play it by Ear, but this was one of my faves!
oh my god the move of going absolutely still, no one else in the scene having any idea what's goin on, and then Jess revealing that she's just "blending in" followed by a quiet "did i look like the mona lisa?" at 2:12 made me curl up in fetal position from laughing too hard
Subscribed a month ago, the only regret is the effect on my free time. And even after I've watched everything, I will keep my subscription to support them. The one company that actually deserves money (because they give it to the people that actually provide the service).
3:15 the way John took Alice's Bruce the hamster breeder character to make this perfectly timed joke cracks me up every time 😂also I absolutely loved how not just Zach but pretty much the rest of the cast just hyped Jess up whenever she broke character laughing. great embodiment of improv theater 👏
I love dropout so much but my anxiety could never handle the karaoke-esque episodes for some reason, so I never tuned into Play It By Ear. Thank you for this gift I didn't know what I'd been missing. I screamed at "HLUGE" especially lmao
To add to the running theme of some of the added text, in context the hugooesh breaks are because of Zach setting it up in the opening (read ending) song. Her cracking when she processes what she'll have to do later is also really good.
I didn't even smirk watching this. There's nothing worse than "comedians" who laugh at their own jokes. Never a good sign. I guess you have to have watched the show to "get it" because I really don't understand what's funny here.
you know you're free to just scroll by and not interact with a video that's clearly about a comedian breaking at their own jokes? it's literally in the title
Find someone who looks at, listens to, and supports you the way Zach and Jess look at, listen to, and support their platonic comedy partners.
Platonic (most of the time)
@@maxcraftobjectssituated5519 Most of the time? /genq
Jess: that is the dumbest thing i've ever come up with
Zach, proudly: YES IT IS!!!!!
the "dumb bitch" bit got me so hard that i had to pause and then replay it. it got me several times because of this. i love jess sooooooooo much.
It is SO UNBELIEVABLY hilarious!!
"Hluge" fucking broke me into bits
i love that when jess breaks it's mostly either because of zach, or because she said something that broke both of them
“quest for knowledge…dumb bitch” is one of my favourite lines
It's absolutely HILARIOUS! 🤣
I keep coming back to this compilation just to listen to "there's only one Dornk I'm gonna Slunrk, if everything goes according to plan"
2:58 I'm so obsessed with Rashawn's immediate "What? 😀" as Jess falls apart. I love funny people being funnier together, my god
I love that she was actually right about the mayor of New York, but she's just _so unsure_.
I think that she was mentally searching for a New York mayor in her mind and the only one that came to her was Laguardia, because of the airport.
1:03 the delivery of “portrait of a child on a pane of glass” is absolutely impeccable 😂 I know there’s a lot of hilariously dumb bits in Play it by Ear, but this was one of my faves!
They're all just so delightful. I love seeing them crack up at their own jokes, one of my favorite things about Play It By Ear!
"Licking kids... sorry" made me choke on my own spit
i saw her live at a long-form improv show with ben schwartz in september! she was WONDERFUL!
oh my god the move of going absolutely still, no one else in the scene having any idea what's goin on, and then Jess revealing that she's just "blending in" followed by a quiet "did i look like the mona lisa?" at 2:12 made me curl up in fetal position from laughing too hard
Everyday I grow weaker and weaker to the call of a dropout subscription. This compilation has greatly intensified this struggle.
Best 6 bucks I spend every month tbh
Literally the best streaming service on the market
Come to the dropout side, we have cookies! And soooo much comedy

zach with the battu at 4:39 i KNEW he had a dance background
zach loves making her laugh so much
I love how in each break you can see the inner turmoil so visibly AND audibly
(timestamp for me 0:21)
this is one of my favorite moments 😭 and then her immediate "no scratch that"

Iconic!
That last joke deserves to win an Oscar!
If they aren't COWARDS!
“Hey coward? Be brave enough!”

ross' physicallity on "bereft of life" just really puts the cherry on top
This brings me so much joy. I love her. Thank you for making the compilation!!

Gods this brings me so much serotonin haha 😂
honestly some of my favourite moments lmao
pls protect her at all costs
this made me so happy LMAO
3:24 Zach and Jess's reactions are killing meeeee
I LOVE how they lose their shit, It makes it thousands times better to watch 😂😂
Now Zach, I beg you
How the hell have I never heard of Play it By Ear?!
"shove him in a hamster wheel" has to be the best bit from this show lmao
this makes me so happy thank you for making this!!!!
THE ACADEMY ARE COWARDS FOR NOT AWARDING HER FOR THE DENTIST JOKE
0:46 i think about bat wheels on the daily
my face hurt watching this in the best way
It’s especially funny when she physically cannot move anymore
i want to listen to offbook so badddd but i absolutely need subtitles orz
Jess on Breaking News, now!
Jess should join Breaking News from now on, at least once

If you don't like people laughing at their own jokes, why did you click on a video about an actor "breaking"?
you must be fun at parties
my word.
