- You don't want to miss this!
We have careless cats, door-damaging dogs,
sheepish shepherds, and a goose
who has an affinity for extreme sports.
All this and more, right here
on World's Funniest Animals.
Hey there, and welcome to World's Funniest Animals.
We have searched far and wide
and are bringing you all of the most hilarious animal clips.
I'm your host, Elizabeth Stanton,
joined by my partners in crime, Hank and Ruby,
as well as our panelists
and our special guest, Parker Bates.
- Hey Liz, we're so excited to be here!
- Excited to have you here!
Our animals communicate to us in all sorts of ways.
One of their favorites is jumping up and down
and letting us know how happy they are.
Let's explore that in our segment,
jumping for joy.
Starting with actress, Carmen Hodgson.
- Hey, Liz.
- How good is your dog at gymnastics?
- I'm sorry, one more time?

on Zoom once a week. You do not want to miss it.
- Next up, we have singer/songwriter,
Brandon Rogers.
- Hey, Liz, how's it going?
- Great. Now, Brandon, as a musician,
what are your thoughts on dinner and a show?
- Well, you know, really depends on the show.
(upbeat instrumental music)
(laughter)
(laughter continues)
This is one of those restaurants
where performers dance on a table during your meal.
It's pretty fancy stuff.
(continued laughter)
- Now, we're joined by comedian and singer, Mikalah Gordon.
- Hey, Liz!
- At night, when you're getting ready for bed,
does your pet ever help you brush your teeth or hair?
- Wait, is that like a normal thing? Do your dogs?
- Why don't we ask this woman?
(upbeat music) (laughter)
- Nobody believed me.
Nobody believed me.
Had to record it.
- What do you expect? You put a cat bed
on top of your head, lady. Duh.
(upbeat music continues)
(laughter)
- My nightly routine
(continued laughter)
- And, finally, we have stand-up comedian, Brian Cooper.
- Hey Liz, I can't wait to see
what we got going on this episode.
- What happens when you have a goat raised by kangaroos?
- Kangaroo?
Uh-oh. Australian clips are crazy.
I never know what's gonna happen.
(xylophone music)
(laughter)
(music and laughter continue)
- This farm is hopping.
(electronic music)
(laughter)
(electronic music continues)
(laughter)
- Grab your pets a treat,
because they are about to be jealous of the animal
in our next segment,
FEEDING FRENZY.
(disco music)
(laughter)
(disco music continues)
- A little for me, and a little for me. Thank you.
(disco music continues)
Luckily for this dog, his partner eats like a bird.
(happy instrumental music)
- Be a lamb and grab a bottle of milk for me, would you?
Thanks!
(happy instrumental music)
People never realize how much work these farm dogs do.
(upbeat instrumental music)
(laughter)
(upbeat instrumental music continues)
(laughter)
- Honestly, this is horrifying.
I could never!
(upbeat instrumental music)
(laughter)
(happy techno music)
(happy techno music continues)
(laughter)
- This is training academy for dogs
and they have a pretty interesting way
of feeding all their students.
Talk about a frenzy!
(happy instrumental music)
(happy instrumental music continues)
- [Dogs Educator] Go!
(laughter)
- Let's check in with our special guest.
You may know him
from starring in the critically acclaimed show,
This Is Us.
We have Parker Bates.
- Hi Liz, we're so excited to be here!
- Happy to have you here, Parker.
And who do we have here with you?
- This is my dog Archie.
She's part poodle and
well, I think she's part human too.
- Human?
Why do you say that?
- She has a lot of different emotions.
She likes to go crazy and play
with her brother and me and my brother.
And she's really lazy.
And she's obviously very relaxed right now.
She just sits like a human sometimes. It's really funny.
- How long have you had Archie
and what are some of her favorite things?
- We've had Archie for about three years now.
She was a rescue, so we got to rescue her.
It took us a little bit to just like train her
and just kind of get her to not be so skittish
because she was really scared when he got her,
but now she loves everyone.
Archie loves to cuddle and watch movies,
and she also likes to go kayaking on the lake
with me and my brother.
Her favorite treat is definitely bacon.
- Bacon might be my favorite treat too.
Why don't you two grab a treat
and we'll come back in a little bit.
We'll be back with more of world's funniest animals
right after this.
(upbeat instrumental music)
Welcome back!
Whether it's squirrels, birds, lizards or mailman,
Hank and Ruby are always on the chase.
I mean, just look at these crazy kids.
Okay. They're totally harmless.
But you have to admit, Ruby is faster than she looks, right?
Let's check out some more ferocious
fur balls in our segment,
I'M GONNA GETCHA.
(happy music)
(happy music continues)
(dog barking, window smashing)
(laughter)
- What just happened?
Did the dog go through the window?
(dog barking, window smashing)
- [Carmen] Even the dog knows
he messed up.
He's like, okay, I'll admit I took that a little too far.
I'm sorry!
(upbeat instrumental music)
(speaking Russian)
(water splashes)
(laughter)
- It's an hour past feeding time
and lunch is basically right there.
I don't blame him.
(upbeat instrumental music)
(water splashes)
(laughter)
(upbeat instrumental music continues)
(relaxing instrumental music)
(laughter)
- Every night they wrestle and the winner
gets to sleep on the bed.
(laughter continues)
(relaxing music continues)
- Our dogs all want the windows down when they're in the car
but this video serves as a reminder
maybe it's not always the best idea.
- [Dog Owner] Oh, where are you?
- He didn't choose the farm life,
The farm life chose him!
- Although we've been taught to believe
that cats and dogs and other animals don't get along,
turns out there is no limit
to the kinds of friends our pets can have.
Let's take a look
at the unconventional friendships in our segment,
BEST BUDDIES.
(relaxing music begins)
(relaxing music continues)
- Yeah, sure. This is always so cute, until...
(relaxing music continues)
(laughter)
(upbeat instrumental music)
(laughter)
(upbeat instrumental music continues)
- So is rabies not a thing anymore?
(laughter)
(upbeat music continues)
(rhythmic music)
- Ah-ah.
(rhythmic music continues)
(laughter)
- [Pets Owner] What are you doing now?
Are you cuddling again?
(laughter)
- The animals at this sanctuary are so well taken care of.
They even have their own therapy pets.
I have to admit though, if I was this cat,
I would be a little nervous.
(upbeat instrumental music)
- Oh, guys! I think you put me in the wrong enclosure!
(laughter)
- We caught these animals, red-handed or red-pawed?
Either way, guilty animals coming up next
in BUSTED
on World's Funniest Animals.
We all make mistakes.
Even our pets.
Sometimes they miss us so much
when we are out running errands or at work,
they lash out a little.
Let's take a look at some
of these minor
lapses in judgment in our segment BUSTED.
- [Dog Owner] So this is what I just woke up to
this morning.
Hey Fenway,
Fenway,
Fenway.
You ate couch!
- The tail is the dog's lie detector.
- [Dog Owner] Did you do it?
(laughter)
- [Dog Owner] Cooper, did you eat all of your treats?
Cooper!
- He doesn't look guilty at all!
He didn't do it!
- [Dog Owne r] Cooper!
I'm going to record this, 'cause no day is easy,
not one day.
That
was chaff,
which they've demolished because they're in the feed store.
Oh look, just broken the floor, excuse me.
Ah!
Absolute
carnage.
Saddles on the floor,
Very naughty Rufus.
Empty feed bins.
Cheers horses.
Yep, just been in here a while.
And
Right .
Do you want to get out?
- Must've been raised on a farm.
Look at that mess!
- [Horse Owner] Yeah, next!
Oh, lovely job.
(upbeat music)
(laughter)
(upbeat music continues)
- I think all cats are little OCD.
- Some animals just love the water.
Others,
not so much.
Let's see how these animals feel about this age-old debate
in our segment,
SPLISH SPLASH.
(water splash)
(laughter)
(instrumental music)
- He stood up on two feet, ready to fight!
(techno music)
(water splashing)
- They're actually camping
and he's just doing his laundry in the lake.
- I'm telling you, the fish love this.
(water splashing)
(laughter)
- Hey! Thanks for stopping by my house.
Now, get out!
(upbeat music)
(water splashes)
- Wow. Full clearance?
Didn't even get his back legs.
That's impressive!
(laughter)
- I don't even know how they found the tub
big enough for this guy.
I have to say,
I'm glad they did because this is adorable.
(upbeat techno music)
(water splashing)
(laughter)
- Oh, come on, man, just five more minutes!
(techno music continues)
(water splashing)
(laughter)
- We're back with Parker Bates.
I heard Archie had the opportunity to join you
during one of your recent projects. Is that true?
- Archie got to be in my movie, Magic Max.
After I read the script, I realized
that there was a dog at the end of the movie.
So, I asked the producer if Archie could be in it with me.
And she said, "yes!" She got to be on set with us every day.
And even got her own cash chair.
- She's really moving up in the world.
Speaking of which, it's a pretty unique name.
How did you come up with that?
- Archie was actually named from Archie
from Riverdale, because when she was little
she was completely red
and she turned white about a year later,
and it was really weird
because we thought we had a different dog for a minute.
- Imagine coming home from school one day
and your dog was a totally different color.
Well, thanks for joining us, Parker,
and for introducing us to Archie.
Flying animals and disappearing dogs.
You won't want to miss what's coming up next
on World's Funnest Animals.
Some animals are born to fly.
Others just love getting some airtime.
Let's take a look at some
of these aviator animals in our segment
TAKING FLIGHT.
(dramatic orchestral music)
(laughter)
(dramatic orchestral music continues)
- This is exactly what people indoor skydiving look like.
(dramatic orchestral music)
(laughter)
(upbeat music)
(upbeat music continues)
- If dogs like the windows down in the car,
imagine how this guy feels.
(laughter)
You fly the glider, I'm on bird watch.
- The next two are for flying down the mountain
and I'm not sure who is more impressive. Nicely done.
(upbeat instrumental music)
(laughter)
- I have so many questions.
Did he meet the bird there? Is that his pet bird?
Like what is going on here?
- Every once in a while I'll be walking around the house
looking for Hank or Ruby and I can't find them.
And just as I'm beginning to panic,
there they are, in some new hiding spot.
Let's check out these aspiring illusionists in our segment,
VANISHING ACT.
(upbeat music)
(laughter)
- This is why my free shipping takes forever.
Just finish packing my order, man.
(upbeat music)
(laughter)
- If I was constantly being videotaped,
I would probably hide in a cardboard box too.
(laughter)
- [Dog Owner] Simba!
(laughter)
- Oh-ho-ho, that smile! He is so happy with himself.
- [Dog Owner] Simba!
(laughter)
(upbeat music)
- Beautiful setting, check!
Happy Husky?
Check!
Magic trick?
Check!
You're going to want to see this next clip.
(happy instrumental music)
(laughter)
- I am just as confused as the dog is.
That it's crazy. Where did he go?
- Well, that's almost it for us.
But in case you missed anything along the way,
here's a quick recap of all of our funniest moments.
We had garish goats, curious cats, feeding friends,
hidden huskies, slipshod stables, angry apes,
splashing stingrays,
and a cat who was ready to hunt for his own dinner,
but just needed a little more work on that long jump.
(happy music)
Thanks so much to our panel
and our special guest, Parker Bates.
- Bye Liz. Thank you so much for having me!
Say "Bye," Archie. Bye everyone!
- Bye Parker. And thank you for tuning in.
I'm Elizabeth Stanton
and we'll see you next time on World's Funniest Animals.
