- Get ready to laugh
because today on the show, we have a hopping husky,
a doting duck, a canine with cowboy aspirations
and a photogenic flamingo.
These clips and much more to come
here on World's Funniest Animals.
Hey there and welcome to World's Funniest Animals.
I'm your host Elizabeth Stanton
and these are my trusty sidekicks, Hank and Ruby.
Joined today with a few of my friends and panelists,
as well as a celebrity guest, James Maslow.
- Hey everybody?
Blue and I are happy to be here.
And we're excited to see what is in store tonight.
- Thanks for being here, James.
Our pets are so cute
that we just wanna kiss and squeeze them
because we can't stand at how cuddly they are,
but sometimes they just wanna be left alone.
Let's take a look at what happens
when animals feel like
their personal space has been invaded,
Don't mess with me.
Brought to you with commentary from our first panelist
actor, writer, director and musician Maiara Walsh.
- Hey Liz.
Thank you so much for having me,
I'm so excited to watch these clips.
- This video shows us a dog owner taking a selfie
with their less than pleased pet.
- Now if an animal is angry,
I'm making a 180 and getting out of there immediately.
- Hey selfie ready?
Go!
- I mean, what could go wrong?
- For your next clip we have the hilarious comedian,
Brian Cooper.
- Hey Liz.
I'm happy to be here ready for some funny clips.
Let's do this!
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
- Now we are joined with one of my favorite comedians,
Neel Ghosh.
- Hey Liz?
- We have a video with an angry goat
and a girl trying to take a video with him.
- Angry goat, brave girl.
Can't wait to see how this turns out.
- It's trying to head pat me bro.
- That's a concussion.
- It's trying to head pat me bro.
- And now our final panelist, actress, Carmen Hodgson.
- Hey Liz?
Yes, I'm so excited for these
because animal videos are seriously my favorite videos.
Next time bring the carrots!
When this guy is asked how he relaxes,
he pets his little dog
who is clearly not a fan of being touched.
- You see petting your dog
is one of the most relaxing things you can possibly do.
It releases a hormone called oxytocin, which reduces stress.
Also it lowers your heart rate
and it lowers your blood pressure.
Plus people who pet their dogs are five times more likely
to live longer than people who just have cats.
Plus--
- Some of my favorite movies feature a great escape,
with the main character against all odds
manages to sneak away.
These animals must have similar tastes in entertainment.
Here is Jailbreak.
Okay, can we get a freeze frame on that face?
Cats are pretty genius!
Easy.
He does this every day.
- Where there's a will there's a way.
- Not even a thank you from the dog.
- So the myth that cats don't have bones
obviously it's true, there's no way.
- On today's episode,
we've got James Maslow from Big Time Rush.
We love animals, you love animals
tell me, have you ever worked with any animals on set?
- You remember a film with a snake?
It was an episode of Big Time Rush
it had this huge yellow boa constrictor
something around there.
- A boa constrictor?
You're braver than I am James.
- I'm not a huge fan of snakes.
And they're like, oh always cool I'm like okay,
I'll take one for the team and I'll do it.
We did like three or four takes
and he started tightening a little more.
Eventually I just had to stop it honestly freaked me out.
It was a nice snake, but like there's still wild reptiles,
I don't know, I just don't need a, eight foot snake murder.
- If you think that's funny, just wait for what's coming up.
We have a robotic cat feeder, a dumbfounded dog
and a horse who has decided it's time to leave the stable.
All these and more, next on World's Funniest Animals.
Getting excited to eat
is definitely something I can relate to,
but these animals take it to another level.
The hunger is real in this next segment
when it's Dinner time.
- You know what would make this clip better?
Skates.
Hello?
I would like to speak to your manager.
- Wow!
Way too much time on your hands?
How the cat clearly terrified clearly horrified,
please why don't you just feed me?
- Variety is the spice of life.
These next animals would have to agree in our segment,
Opposites attract.
- Okay, this has to be one of the cutest things
I've ever seen.
No offense Blue you are out there too but you saw it.
- No, that is a baby goat.
Hey look, it's Tom Brady's son.
When did this scene of Harry Potter come out?
- Aaaw cute!
- How's it going James?
- All right Blue?
Or just say hi, wave, hi.
- Blue seems like a good boy.
Does he know any tricks?
- He didn't learn a whole lot of obedience
wherever he was before this.
Blue is good though at walks and runs,
we do like six or seven miles a day
'cause he is a gigantic beast.
He's also good at eating things,
whether it's food in his bowl or food on your plate,
or your socks or your hands
when you give him out for a snack,
he might just eat those, kidding, kidding
but also not kidding.
What else is he good at?
Annoying Dad!
He's so good at annoying me.
- Even more surprises from the animal kingdom
when we come with World's Funniest Animals.
Don't you hate when you're stuck at home with nothing to do?
I know I do.
Sometimes you just gotta escape and get some fresh air,
turns out animals feel the same way
as we found out in this next segment, Planned escape.
- Oh, that's flexible!
That's how you know yoga is paying off.
- The stable door is securely locked because otherwise
the horse would just,
nevermind.
- That's a high fence!
I know humans that couldn't climb that.
- If this dog jumps, I'm gonna flip out.
Don't do it!
Don't jump.
Owh, okay.
- And he clears it, okay.
If I can just squeeze.
There's gotta be a way to get out of here.
Hold on wait a second.
There it is!
I knew I shouldn't have that last snack.
Cats can open doors, escape through windows.
If you have a cat,
you just need to be contained with them
going where they want.
- Sometimes you just wanna be left alone.
Everyone needs to recharge every once in a while
and our pets are no exception.
Take a look at these grumpy animals
in our segment, Up the wall.
- Trying to get a selfie with you.
- Flamingo slap!
- We need to see that in slow mo.
- Just a five foot tall bird
what's the worst that could happen?
- It's what you get, trying to outdo a flamingo
at the beach.
- It's not a horror movie that's like
an espionage film.
'Cause like the ocean sent the seal
to remove its oxygen source.
- Oh, the cat's a vegetarian that's it.
- Duck duck, you're gonna get stumped, I can tell.
- That cat is more patient than I am.
Eat your vegetables, eat up.
- Oh my God!
Me and this dog are the same,
we don't like housekeeping chores.
Just a good Samaritan trying to help a baby goose
off the curb.
They gonna peck you.
Mama goose is not having it.
At least that little guy is safe and off the streets.
- Play with me Mom, play with me, play with me.
Huh?
Why can't you just stick your head out of the window
like a normal dog?
A kitty slap from the stairs?
- Owh!
That's what you get for taking a selfie.
- Just like hey man, can I chill on the couch with you?
It's a nice chair, can we hang?
No!
- Coming up on World's Funniest Animals,
unlikely animal friendships.
- We'll be right back with more of World's Funniest Animals!
- Cats and dogs are like oil and water,
they don't usually mix well,
at least that's what cartoons I used to watch taught me.
But we found some pretty cool animal pairings.
I know I was surprised what we discovered for this segment,
A world of difference.
- Hey, this ain't no dog and pony show.
- Nevermind that's exactly what it is.
That dog seems so happy.
Could it be the fact that he's riding a horse?
Or it could be because he has an amazing outfit.
- That's real love right there.
- Oh my gosh!
My heart melts when I see the dog kiss the cow back.
- Oh yeah that's the spot, you get in there bestie,
you get in there, like a massage.
- I wish I made friends at the beach as easily as that dog.
Now I wanna know what the plans to do
if he does catch the dog.
- It's about the thrill of the chase sometimes.
And you can stop hogging all the attention.
- I absolutely love to eat and I know my pets do too.
Get ready for our next segment, Supper club.
- People put actual vegetables on their snowman?
Hair noses and stuff?
- You see the other deer runaway
like oh man, get outta here.
- If someone asks me if I want a snack and I say no,
I always regret it and look exactly like this dog.
- This dog is like the Oprah of carrots.
You get a carrot, you get a carrot, everyone gets a carrot.
- I just love the salad bar.
Always fresh, always organic.
Me too Mich
but the early bird special
is getting out of control these days.
- All right and the test results are in.
You appear to be 70% fluff and 30% celery, healthy.
- My doctor told me I have to chew up to 30 times per bite.
- Oh my goodness!
What is this stuff?
- Give me food, give me food!
Must eat food!
- I'm not sure if she realizes she's a bird.
- Well, that's almost it for us,
but just in case you missed anything.
Here's a quick recap of all of the funniest moments,
a bouncing sibling rivalry, an interesting pairing,
a wild west woofer, a flamingo who is totally over tourists,
a dog who has no time for chores,
some bunnies with their very own butler
and a horse who has decided
it's finally time to move out of their parents' house.
That's all the time we have on our show.
Thanks again to our panel
and to our celebrity guest, James Maslow
for bringing his pup by to chat with us
on World's Funniest Animals.
- Thank you so much, Liz it was our pleasure.
Blue has had a good time being on the couch,
which he's not usually allowed to be.
So say thank you and say bye, bye.
- I'm Elizabeth Stanton we'll see you again soon
with more crazy animal clips, until next time.
