- You don't wanna miss this.
We have bathing bears, confused K-9s,
frightened felines, howling huskies,
and this plug-pulling pig.
All this and more right here
on World's Funniest Animals.
(theme music)
Hello, and welcome to World's Funniest Animals,
where your pets take center stage.
I'm your host, Elizabeth Stanton,
here with my favorite co-hosts: Hank and Ruby,
as well as our team of panelists,
Daniel, Carmen, Anna, and Devon.
We're so happy to have you here.
Let's kick things off
with some extremely talented animals
who have some mad skills.
(upbeat music)
(audience laughs)
- Aww.
Finally, there's one member of the household
who doesn't complain about laundry day.
Or, if he does, keeps it to himself.
And maybe a few other things, as well.
It does seem like more and more of my socks
have been disappearing lately.
Hmm.
(audience laughs)
- This dog is better than a boyfriend.
I mean, can you imagine being this well
taken care of while you're sick
by someone so cute?
- [Owner] Say hello.
- Hello.
- [Owner] Good girl.
Do your car alarm.
(bird imitates car alarm)
(audience laughs)
What's your name?
- Corvelle.
- [Owner] Let's hear a rooster.
Say "cockadoodledoo!"
(bird imitates rooster)
A kitty cat.
(bird meows)
A dog.
(bird barks)
Howl!
(bird howls)
All right, Corvelle.
We're gonna do some coughing.
(Corvelle coughs)
And how about some singing?
Sing!
(Corvelle sings)
Say goodbye.
- Bye bye!
- [Owner] Aww.
- I love you!
- Is this real, or just a really good ventriloquist?
(bird screams)
(piano notes play)
(audience laughs)
- Ah, yes.
"Winter," by Vivaldi.
What a beautiful rendition.
(casual music plays)
(audience laughs)
(crowd cheers)
- Wow.
Forget Tony Hawk.
This dog is like Evel Knievel.
You go, dog!
- Sometimes, the best pets are the rarest.
And we're positive these oinkers
will win you over.
Here's Pet Pigs.
(energetic music plays)
(audience laughs)
- When you get that itch that you just can't reach
and there's nothing around for miles,
you'll do anything to scratch it.
- [Owner] Good, girl, Penelope!
Good girl, Penelope!
- I'd buy a back scratcher that size.
It should be an option.
This one clearly enjoys it.
- I know, I'm a sound sleeper, too.
(audience laughs)
Then, suddenly, "all right, I'm up, I'm up!"
- [Owner] Get up, baby.
(vacuum shuts off)
(audience laughs)
- We've all heard the term "pigsty."
Well, this guy is just making sure
it stays that way.
- I love these costumes.
I got em' for my pets online.
Now, this is the extended model.
Mhm.
I had the original version last Halloween,
with real french fries in it,
looked even better,
but they ate em'.
Right away.
- The panelists have had some fun,
but now it's time for the clips I wanna see.
Here's "Lizzy's Favorites."
- Peek-a-boo!
- [Elizabeth] They say some games never get old.
Well, this one just did.
Okay, mom, I did it.
Give me the cracker already.
Come on.
(audience laughs)
It's the ultimate squirrel party trick:
opening a bottle with your teeth.
Never fails to get the crowd laughing.
What do you do when you get yourself
into a really tight spot?
You just roll with it, baby.
(audience laughs)
Just a reminder that sometimes,
all it takes is a bubble machine and a backyard.
Welcome to Ralphie's Rave.
(club music plays)
(energetic music plays)
What could be better than a sprinkler
to bite on a hot day?
Two sprinklers to bite!
Yay!
Keep on watching,
we've got some perplexed pets coming your way
next on World's Funniest Animals.
(theme music)
Welcome back to World's Funniest Animals.
I'm your host, Elizabeth Stanton,
and if you think the world is
tough for us to understand sometimes,
imagine what it looks like for our pets.
Here's Confused.
- [TikTok Voiceover] Pretending
I can't see Cash.
- Cash, where are you?
Where are you?
Hello?
Where are you?
(audience laughs)
Cashie?
Cash?
Hello, Cash?
Cash?
- Wait, Mom, I'm right here.
Can't you see me?
Can you hear me?
Mom?
- [Owner] Thor.
Get away from that door.
Get away from that door,
you understand?
Don't you ever dare think about
coming here.
- Okay, I get it.
You're having a little fun with your dog
over the intercom.
At his expense.
Won't let him back into his own house.
Well, someday, you're gonna lock
your keys inside the house
and you'll be standing out there,
while he's looking out the window at you,
just laughing.
(audience laughs)
- What do you mean the thing I've been chasing
for five years is now used to help MeeMaw walk around?
You can't see how this would cause confusion for me?
(audience laughs)
- Yeah, two things that blow my mind, too.
Quantum physics and memory foam.
- It's no surprise that when animals
see us with our phones in our hands
taking picture after picture,
they wanna get in on the action.
This next segment's called "Selfie."
- Good morning.
Hope everyone's having a great day.
Just got here to the farm.
You know, opening the gates.
Gonna head up the hill, I'm gonna feed everybody.
Just, you know, regular day
at the sanctuary.
Sometimes I feel like
I have a burden on my back.
I'm not sure what it is.
- Whoa, whoa, lady.
"Burden on my back?"
I make the puns around here!
She's coming for my job.
(techno music plays)
(audience laughs)
- Downward dog, downward dog.
That's all you hear!
Finally, some upward cat!
(hip hop music plays)
- Just wanna watch the news.
All I wanna do is watch the news.
- I never heard a more dad comment in my life.
"I just wanna watch the news!"
(audience laughs)
- We get it.
You and your dog are active.
Just take a normal selfie, sheesh.
(owner laughs)
(audience laughs)
- Man, talk about rabid fans!
This one will do anything to stop a goal
from the other side.
- Better get a stretch in
before our next segment because we've got
pets pumping iron.
Rex gets ripped, next on World's Funniest Animals.
(theme music)
Welcome back to World's Funniest Animals.
Now that we've got you warmed up,
it's time to grab your mat,
water bottle, and protein shake for our
next segment, Working Out.
(audience laughs)
- Now this personal trainer's the real deal!
He knows how to motivate.
They start to wimp out, yeah, you just
scratch em' and bite.
That'll get em' going.
- [Owner] No.
(audience laughing)
- Imagine having a trainer that, right after lunges,
makes you do more cardio.
This is one tough pup.
(audience laughing)
(rock music plays)
- Oh, this is a waste of time.
This is so lame.
We could be out doing something useful,
like chasing a ball.
Dogs live by one rule:
If I'm not having fun,
I'm going to sleep.
- He's working on his pecks.
- As technology advances,
most of our devices are now so simple
that even our pets can use them.
Don't believe me?
You will after our next segment, Meta Mammals.
(phone ringing)
(receiver thumps)
- Hello, Mr. Whiskers's office,
what can I do for you?
No, we are all set on office shredding services.
All of our workers are extremely adept at that.
Thank you.
- [Cameraman] I wanna see if he actually
can pull it off.
He's unscrewing it.
Oh my god, he's unscrewing it with his bottom legs.
There it goes.
- I've heard of cat burglars,
but have you seen a raccoon burglar?
(wolves howling)
(dog howling)
- He just looks so sad that he can't
be with his friends.
It's like watching everyone at a party
that you weren't invited to!
- Get ready for some water-logged waggers,
our P-E-Ts get some H2O, next on
World's Funniest Animals.
(theme music)
Welcome back to World's Funniest Animals.
If you think hot days are tough for you,
imagine if you had to wear a fur coat.
That's why these animals are cooling off.
(water splashing)
- Okay, get ready.
Here we go.
One, two, three, cannonball!
(audience laughs)
- These dogs just have to
do everything around here, huh?
Hot day?
Fill up the pool all by themselves.
Where are the parents?
(audience laughing)
- Okay, yeah.
This is a springer spaniel,
so I would expect he'd be a natural
on a pogo stick,
but a scooter?
Yeah, that does blow my mind.
- If there's one thing our pets like to do,
it's show off their pipes,
so bring your furry friends to the screen
and see if they want to join in
for our sing-a-long.
(man singing)
(dog mimicking singing)
- All right.
Not sure who's giving who the singing lessons here,
but sounding good.
- [Owner] I love you, Loki.
(dog howls)
I know, I know.
Ready?
I love you, yeah.
(both howl)
- Aww, they say long-distance
makes friendships hard.
These guys are still besties.
- [Owner] I know, I know.
(piano music plays)
(dog howls)
♪ My baby left me ♪
♪ Without even a bone ♪
♪ She broke my heart and left me all alone ♪
♪ I got the doggone blues ♪
♪ I got the doggone blues tonight ♪
♪ Hoo hoo ♪
(harmonica plays)
(dog howls)
- He looks like someone who would
sing at a blues bar.
This fits perfectly.
(dog howling)
(man singing "Circle of Life" intro)
(donkey brays)
- Okay.
There have been so many spinoffs from the movie.
This is the latest touring version.
(man continues singing)
And I'd say it's ready to hit the road.
Think it might be the best one yet.
(donkey brays)
- Well, that's about 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 pampering puppies, purring pianists,
pushy pigs, confused kittens, K9 coaches,
and bathing bears.
(theme music)
Thanks for laughing with us,
and thanks so much to our awesome panel.
We hope you'll join us again
next time on World's Funniest Animals.
I'm Elizabeth Stanton.
Bye.
