- You're not gonna wanna miss
what we have in store today. (doorbell rings)
We've got playground pooches, chasing chickens,
a wild raccoon, ogling owls, cowardly canines,
and a toddler's tennis ball is taken by a tenacious thief.
All this and more right here on "World's Funniest Animals".
Hello and welcome to "World's Funniest Animals",
the one-stop shop for all of your funny animal needs.
I'm your host Elizabeth Stanton
joined today by my partners in crime Hank and Ruby
and our amazing panel Anna, Carmen, Daniel, and Devin.
Here we go.
Perhaps most of the pets are furry or fluffy,
but for some people, underwater is where it's at.
Let's take a look at some aquatic action
in this segment, "Feeling Fishy".
(bouncy pop music)
- [Woman] Oh my gosh! Oh my lord!
- I don't know why guys always hold up
pictures of fish on social media.
This fishing thing looks pretty easy.
- I'm here on Coney Island Beach
and there's no signs of- (percussion sounds)
- I don't know what this weather lady is getting paid
but it's not enough. (percussion sounds)
Get her a raise.
When's the last time you had to deal with this at work?
- Most of the time, our pets are calm, cool, and collected.
But every so often we catch them flipping out.
(weird synth music)
- Aye!
Calm down!
- I get that pedestrians always have the right of way,
but this is why you look both ways before crossing.
(energetic electronic music)
- I see Beethoven is still up to his usually antics.
Proceed!
(bouncy electronic music)
- Ah, the witching hour.
Someone just had dinner and is now having
their evening zoomies.
(energetic electronic music)
- See, this is what happens
when you take city folk to a farm.
I don't know what they did but they messed up.
I've never seen 30 chickens chase someone down like that.
(bouncy pop music)
(dog barking) (baby giggling)
(bouncy pop music)
- Everyone has their own favorite animal clips.
Here are some of mine.
- [Man] Okay. (dog whimpers)
- [Man] Can you say I?
Look at my mouth. "I."
I. (dog whimpers)
I.
Love. You. (dog whimpering)
I love you. I love you. (dog whimpering)
I love you.
- [Elizabeth] Someone get this dog his own TV show.
Okay, now this is my dream come true.
I look out my kitchen window
and I see a panda bear frolicking on a tree swing.
This is wild and wacky stuff, look at him!
He couldn't be happier out there.
I don't think anyone else is ever gonna get a turn.
He's flipping out!
All right, someone else can have a turn now.
Well, this is one way to make eating easier.
(bouncy Reggaeton music)
I just hope he doesn't you-know-what where he eats.
Otherwise, knock yourself out, little one.
(bouncy Reggaeton music)
I know I left that bone somewhere in here.
What, maybe it's over there.
Nah, it's definitely here.
Definitely. Definitely.
(audience cheering) (upbeat country music)
Sure, let's try water skiing.
It'll be great. It'll be fun.
The horse will love it. What could go wrong?
(upbeat country music)
All right, this isn't so bad.
Giddy up.
(upbeat country music)
Whoa.
Whoa!
Next up, we try to welcome some unwelcomed guests.
- [Woman] Should we get the gun or something-
- [Man] I'm not gonna shoot it!
(upbeat pop music)
- Welcome back to "World's Funniest Animals".
In this next segment we explore what happens
when a wild animal winds up in your neck of the woods.
Here's "Unexpected Guests".
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing) (upbeat music)
- I am sorry, if I had a play set in my back yard that
attracted bears, we're tearing it down and just having to
go to the park from now on.
- Where is it? Where is it? Where is it?
(screams)
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh!
- What? (screams)
(upbeat music)
Okay- (woman screams)
- [Man] Oh my gosh, okay, it's a little scary.
Look at his feet. - Should we get the gun-
I'm not gonna shoot it, baby.
Okay. - Oh, he's kinda cute.
- [Woman] We need to let him out...
- [Man] Look at it, oh! So cute!
- Please- - Okay, okay, okay, okay.
- Now they say social media ruined younger generations.
But if we weren't trained to bring out our phones
and record everything,
we never woulda gotten this priceless video.
(bouncy hip hop beat)
(woman laughing)
(audience laughing) (bouncy hip hop beat)
- This is the ideal friendship for a cat, you get to hang out
but you are on the other side of the window. It's on their
terms and they can just walk away whenever they want.
- Beachfront propriety seems like a great invesment
until you realize sea creatures will show up trying to break
into your house.
- I was always jealous of the kids who had trampolines,
and they get adorable sheep in their backyard?
It's an embarrassment of riches!
- There's a whole syndicate
of highly trained acrobatic cat burglars.
It's rare to catch them on camera like this.
He must be losing his touch.
- Whether their still young or all grown up,
our pets are absolutely adorable.
I mean, they take up a solid 75% of our cameras
and for a good reason.
Let's take a look at some pets
that give us a cuteness overload.
(chill hip hop beat)
- [Woman] She thinks she's shoe.
Hey, cutie.
- There's few reasons I would give up any of my closet space
but this, this is one of them.
I'll swap out a pair of shoes for you.
- [Man] Are you behaving like I asked you to?
Excuse me.
Are you behaving like I asked you to?
Hey!
- This is why I have a cat.
Hardly looks at me, it's like an aloof college roommate
that secretly thinks what I'm majoring in
will never be as cool as his degree.
(chill pop music)
(upbeat hip hop beat) (audience laughing)
- See, this is what happens
when you leave the kids with grandpa.
They getting spoiled rotten.
(bouncy R&B beat)
- [Elizabeth] Coming up, we have even more hilarious dogs,
ponies, and lions?
Oh my.
(upbeat music)
Welcome back to "World's Funniest Animals".
Walking around in our day-to-day,
when we see a friend or even a stranger
and want them to know we're okay,
we flash them a quick smile.
Well, it seems like our pets are adopting that behavior
in our segment "Put On A Happy Face".
(chill electronic music)
- Just stand still and you'll get your treat.
They'll get bored soon
and they'll text the video to their friends,
realize this joke is mid,
and you'll never have to do it again.
Hang in there, you got this, buddy.
(bouncy hip hop beat)
(audience laughing) (bouncy hip hop beat)
- Dogs are so pure,
they just get so excited over the simplest things.
- Do people just have owls as pets now?
What is this, "Harry Potter"?
- [Man] Smile for the camera.
Smile for the camera. (audience laughing)
- Does this bring you joy?
Does this bring you joy?
- Let's have a little fun and horse around
in our next segment, "Hit the Hay".
(upbeat country music)
- Come on!
Come on! (bell dings)
(upbeat country music)
- Look, I'm no venture capitalist,
but I don't need to be to recognize
a Fortune 500 founder when I see one.
(soft country music) (audience laughing)
(doorbell rings)
- [Man] Aye!
Get off my porch! (audience laughing)
(doorbell rings) Aye, go home!
- Oh no, it's a great neighborhood.
You're gonna love it here.
Everyone loves to horse around.
(upbeat rock music)
- [Man] put your window down.
Oh my god.
hello, we gotta go.
Hey, hey, don't be biting (beep)!
(audience laughing) (upbeat rock music)
- Toll roads are a little different in the south, huh?
(bouncy hip hop beat)
(audience laughing)

(audience laughing)
(bouncy hip hop beat)
- Wow, I've never really been big into soccer,
but now after seeing Neymar in action
I'm gonna have to watch more.
- Everyone has their own favorite animal clips.
Here are some of mine.
Check this out.
Oh, she's got company.
This looks like a nice soak. Cool.
Wait, is that a different one or is that the same,
what's going on here exactly?
Oh, okay, you fooled me.
Well played, guys, well played.
What a time to be alive.
Oh yes. I think I just found my spirit animal.
Dog 1, fancy food feeder 0.
This is my mouse.
I finally caught one, now get away. I caught it.
Look, you go and just catch one yourself.
Bye bye.
(upbeat music)
Now this dog is earning his keep.
Aww, he's struggling a little bit.
But maximum effort.
- [Woman] Come on, puppy king, you can do it!
- He's got this. - Good boy!
- [Elizabeth] Tail's wagging.
He knows he's getting a reward.
- Good boy! Good boy! - Now he's waiting on them.
- All right, can we go in?
I got your newspaper.
(dog whimpering)
Yeah, anytime today would be great.
(bouncy synth music)
So while this cute little Mission Impossible wannabe
strategizes his next move brilliantly,
the dog's composure is absolutely legendary.
He's not even budging.
Like one of those royal guards in the UK
with the big crazy hats.
(bouncy synth music)
Is he gone yet?
Next, we'll explore the more mischievous side of our pets.
Stick around.
(dog barks) (man laughs)
(upbeat music)
Welcome back to "World's Funniest Animals".
Sometimes our pets can be like our children.
They make up their own friends or pretend friends,
and sometimes, well, there's fake friends.
(bouncy hip hop beat)
(puppy barking) (audience laughing)
(bouncy hip hop beat)
(puppy barking)
- I love how the dog just looks at the owner,
like, "Come on, man, back me up!
"Say something!"
(audience laughing)
(dog barks and growls)
(dogs barking and growling)
(woman laughing)
(dogs barking and growling)
- To be fair,
how would you react if there was a lion in your house?
I think this is a totally normal reaction.
(soft guitar music)
- Now this is proof that cats are just wild animals
that we keep in our homes.
Aye look, there's another animal.
I'm gonna immediately attack it.
At least a dog would give it a couple sniffs first.
(girl giggling)
(man meows) (girl laughing)
- You know they were walking through the store
and they saw that mask and they bought it
just to for the sole purpose of this video.
Leave the cat alone, man!
- Animals and pets' strongest motivators
are food and attention.
And sometimes, either knowingly or not,
they turn to a life of crime in search for those two things.
Here's "Stop Thief".
(dramatic orchestral music)
(audience laughing)
- No, bad dog!
You have to let it rest for 10 minutes, everyone knows that!
You're missing out on way more tender and juicier steak.
(upbeat R&B beat)
- Your Honor,
this video should not serve as evidence for theft,
but instead for entrapment.
I'm filing a motion to counter sue.
My client is innocent.
- [Woman] Here you go, throw it for Simon.
Where'd it go?
It's not in your hand anymore.
It's right there.
- The look of absolute shock on that baby!
(chill pop music)
She just experienced betrayal by her best friend, no less.
- 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 daring dogs, crazy chickens,
fighting fish, dunking doggies,
galloping goats, kooky cats,
a rambunctious raccoon, a cat chasing a crab,
and a bear just looking for a place to play.
(upbeat electronic music)
Thanks so much to our hilarious panel.
Bye guys, and thank you for tuning in.
I'm Elizabeth Stanton, we'll see you next time
on "World's Funniest Animals".
