while RvB has some of the best jokes i've ever heard, has anyone else noticed that their subtle jokes are great too. maybe it's just me, but i love subtle jokes. it's like, the escense of comedy. what do you think?

my favorite subtle joke is when Wyoming gets that call about the bounty on Tucker and he says "mmhmm....spell that with a T or an F do you?....oh ok, i thought you said something else"

Yes, I also loved that one too. It's the fact that you don't always have to know what the beginning of the sentence was, just that the punchline is soo out of context that it is funny. Like Tucker - "and he says, *Read it? I already ruined it!*" So funny.

Tucker told a masturbation joke.

I LOVE the gag from season 1 where Church tells Caboose to watch the red base, and the next cut shows Caboose watching blue base.

I like the one where Griff says to Simmons right as Donut first appears "And then you said, 'I'm not going to the Vegas Quadrant' The next thing I know, your in an escape pod..." This is about the guy who plays Simmons not wanting to go to Las Vegas one time. Great...

And yea, Tucker said a masturbation joke.

ya, i was thinkin about the Vegas Quadrant one too as a subtile joke. though that one requires a little more research into RvB

In reply to LordDeos, #8:

That's what you'd call an in-joke, I think, since the creators are the only ones who would really get it. There's a couple others like the fact that Grif keeps thinking that Simmons is Mexican when, in reality, Simmons' voice actor actually is Mexican and how Caboose's first name and initial "Michael J." is Burnie's real first name and initial.

I think that the funniest one is when they find the switch and tucker is al hunkered down lookin at it and the red team comes over and is like "what are you doin?"... its a subtle blowjob joke

But the image and the punchline are part of the same joke. You can't seperate them into to different elements.

lol, that was a funny/screwed up episode, but that wasn't subtle at all lol

and true, when you don't know what they're saying, it can be pretty funny to fill things in with ur mind too. but when it comes to the guys at RT, they can come up with better stuff then what ur mind can come up with sometimes

Best subtle joke ever?

Yellow Church, hands-down. You don't know what the hell happened to him, nobody else does, and you're trying to come up with a theory... only to realize that the good ones have been taken by the guys in the Yellow Church thread. *shakes fist*

The Yellow Church stuff isn't subtle just...weird...and confusing.

I just realized something, Simmons' full name is given as Dick Simmons, as in Richard Simmons. Do you think there's any connection between him and that weird fitness trainer guy of the same name?
