- You don't wanna miss this.
We have dunking doggies, fatigued felines,
heartwarming homecomings, masterful monkeys,
a hair-triggered horse, and a man's best friend
proves that sometimes three is a crowd.
All this today and more,
right here on "World's Funniest Animals."
Hello and welcome to World's Funniest Animals.
If you're a fan of hilarious animal videos,
then boy, are you in the right place.
I'm your host, Elizabeth Stanton,
joined today by my partners in crime, Hank and Ruby,
as well as our awesome team of panelists,
Daniel, Carmen, and Devon.
And we're off.
We've seen pets who can do some pretty amazing tricks,
some natural athletes, pets who even play sports.
Let's take a closer look in our segment, All-Stars.
(playful music)
- [Tractor Driver] Woo-hoo!
Let's go.
- Now, that is the height of laziness.
This guy can't even exert himself enough to take the dog
for a proper walk.
He has to drive.
One of these days,
that lack of exercise is gonna catch up with him.
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
- See, now that just goes to show
that you don't have to be tall to play basketball.
Take it from me, okay?
(plastic sliding)
(audience laughing)
- How to be the perfect goalkeeper.
Just imagine the ball is a mouse.
It works every time. (laughs)
(smooth jazzy music)
(audience laughing)
- (imitating bird cawing) Polly want a cracker?
No, let's shoot some hoops.
(audience laughing)
- It's not all just running around and playing fetch.
Sometimes our pets can take all that energy
and express it in a more creative way.
Here's Arts and Crafts.
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
- Okay, this blows me away
and this guy definitely doesn't have just junk in the trunk.
He's got some real art up in there.
(upbeat music)
- You either come up with some serious treats right now,
or that huge spotless wall is next.
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
- You know, I've seen some modern art where I thought,
"Come on, any monkey could do that."
Well, there you go, proves my point exactly.
(upbeat music continues)
(audience laughing)
- This whole charade is just so she can get your prints.
When she compares these to the ones
from when the ham disappeared
from the table last Thanksgiving, one
of you is busted.
- Now it's time for some clips that I put
at the top of my funny list.
Here's the two biggest new action heroes
to hit the silver screen since Bruce Flea.
It's Cat Damon and Tom Cat Cruz
starring in an upcoming science fiction
action blockbuster, "The Perminator."
(audience laughing)
I saw this animal in the travel book.
It's a coati.
It walks like a raccoon,
has a ring tail and likes to eat sandwiches.
Yep, that's it all right.
(audience laughing)
Here's a green energy backup solution
that doesn't need the sun or wind,
just water and a balanced diet.
It's the cat charger.
Don't be caught napping.
You'll sleep better knowing your home is protected
from cat-astrophic power failure.
(audience laughing)
"Here, no, you take it."
"No, you."
"Please, I insist, you first."
"No, you."
"Really, sir, I don't want it."
"But you gotta have it."
"I don't want it, please, no."
"Really? It's for you.
I've got 100 brothers and sisters.
I can do this all day.
It really needs a wash."
(audience laughing)
What?
You, think I want some of that chicken?
Not at all.
Just taking a little cat nap.
(audience laughing)
Just chilling out, stretching the old legs.
But if you're twisting my arm, okay, I could eat a bite.
(upbeat country Jamboree music)
Anyone know where the reset button is on this thing?
(upbeat music)
Okay, reverse, reverse.
Oh, I'm on the curb.
Oh, reverse.
Wait, oh, this can't be good.
I meant to do that.
Our pets are caught red-handed guilty
coming up next on "World's Funniest Animals."
(upbeat music)
Welcome back to "World's Funniest Animals."
In this next segment, we take a look at some pets
who were not on their best behavior.
Here's Guilty.
- [Owner] Bailey, did you chew these up?
Bailey, did you do this?
- It wasn't me.
Then why are you looking over there?
What about your friend here?
Oh, yeah, he definitely did it.
I'm not taking the rap for him.
That dog is learning the lesson
all criminals find out.
When it comes right down to it,
even your closest friends will always flip on you.
(audience laughing)
(upbeat music)
- [Owner] What did you do?
- If this were in a court of law,
the prosecutor would likely say Luna was looking down
and very embarrassed proving her guilt in the crime.
Well, if I'm the defense attorney,
I'd be saying, "Look, judge, if you were forced to wear
a stupid cutoff pink sweater and a ratty pink collar,
you'd be looking down and embarrassed too."
I rest my case. (audience laughing)
- [Owner] Hmm.
Look at all that trash.
I wonder who did it.
(audience laughing)
Hmm?
Who did it, Mayna?
You know?
- Now that's admirable.
He did it, he's owning up to it, he's really sorry,
and he really needs some help
getting unstuck from that thing.
- [Owner] Did you do that?
Did you do that? Aries?
What did you do?
Why did you eat the cookies?
Come here, Aries, what did you do?
Look at his eyes.
What did you do, Mr. Aries?
- This dog is thinking,
"Wow, this guy is really some kind of idiot.
I mean, he keeps asking me, 'What did you do?'
If he's not smart enough to know,
then I'm sure not telling him."
(audience laughing)
- Time moves differently for our pets.
They say every year is seven dog years,
so if we're gone for six months,
it could feel like 3 1/2 years to them,
which explains why the pets in this next segment
are so excited.
Here's Homecoming.
(gentle upbeat music)
(door clicks) (alarm beeps)
(audience laughing)
(owner speaking in muffled voice)
- Okay, now that's a great welcome
when you walk through the door.
I'm sure this guy avoids picking up groceries
on the way home, though.
Probably just has them delivered.
- [Owner] Is that your dad? (wings flapping)
Oh.
- Hi.
- [Owner] Oh.
Oh.
- Oh, hi.
- [Owner] Oh, there's your papa with the kissing.
There's your papa.
- Some men are unhappy that they work all day, come home,
and the most attention they get
is just a little peck on the cheek.
In this case, though, I'm sure he doesn't complain.
He wouldn't wanna ruffle any feathers.
- [Owner] Get it, Chevy, get it, get it, Chevy.
(upbeat music)
- [Owner] Where you been?
(audience laughing)
(indistinct)
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.
- Surprise.
Okay, now that is a dog
winning the canine lottery right there.
(slide swishing)
- More hilarious animal videos coming up.
Jealous next on "World's Funniest Animals."
(upbeat music)
You're watching "World's Funniest Animals"
and I'm your host, Elizabeth Stanton.
What's better than one pet?
More pets.
But no matter how much you tell them
you don't have a favorite,
sometimes they can get a little jealous.
(upbeat music)
- [Owner] Well, my goodness, what's going on here?
Did you get a little jealous?
- I think this woman is reading a lot more into it
than what's really happening.
The bird just doesn't like anything
with a shell, except peanuts.
(audience laughing)
(upbeat music)
- The dog's like, "Hey, what's the deal?
I was here first and he still gets all the attention?
What happened?"
(people speaking indistinctly)
(audience laughing)
- These two think the dog doesn't want them to kiss.
I think it's more likely the two of them had BLTs for dinner
and the dog just can't resist that bacon breath.
(slide swooshing)
- Pets have so much energy.
I wish I was as excited in the mornings as my dogs are.
They don't even need coffee.
But with all the hyperactivity, eventually comes the crash
and then it's nap time.
- You buy that exercise machine with the best intentions,
but it's not long before it just sits there,
and after a while you're just hanging clothes on it,
or your cat. (audience laughing)
- What is this thing?
It's like way too small.
Who could ever think this is comfortable?
Oh, oh, okay, now we're talking.
That's comfy.
- Psychologists say your sleeping position
says a lot about your personality.
The pillow hugger position.
You're a sentimental snuggler.
The log, you're chill, ooh, and relaxed.
The yearner, you're an adventure seeker,
ready to embrace life with open arms.
The starfish, you're a good friend and a listener.
Beetle, you're tough on the outside,
marshmallow on the inside.
The soldier, you're quiet, reserved,
and hold yourself to a high standard.
There you have it.
Which one are you?
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
- And this is how the Astro dogs sleep in outer space
on the way to the Canine Space Station.
Houston, we have a problem.
We're running low on dog treats.
(upbeat music)
- Finally, somebody came up with a better cat bed.
The problem was always, where do you put your legs?
This is genius.
Problem solved.
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
- Come on, is this real?
He's actually that sound asleep?
I don't believe it.
I think that ferret is just playing opossum.
(slide swooshing)
- Here are more of my favorite clips.
(beat music)
You thought it was just going to be another quiet day
at the barbershop.
Next thing you know,
some crazy monkey is chasing you all around the room.
(monkey screaming)
(audience laughing)
Hey, at barber school,
they never mentioned anything about this.
(beak, cup clicking)
It's the amazing new drink shaker.
(beak, cup clicking)
Add your favorite ingredients and it shakes and mixes them
to absolute perfection.
(audience laughing)
(beak, cup clicking)
These baby ducks are in great paws.
The Golden Retriever is a born bred duck dog
so he has a lot of experience
and the cat is eager to learn the job.
They are the perfect caretakers.
(audience laughing)
This dog's really showing his sled-pulling roots.
Look at him go.
Skateboarding, no less, California style.
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
So this squirrel either has been spending a lot of time
with bats at night, or he's figured out a pretty smart way
to eat and work on his abs at the same time.
(audience laughing)
Respect.
If science fiction is any indication
when animals start using tools,
it never turns out well for humanity.
I've seen "Planet of the Apes."
Okay, I can read the sign language here.
The guy wants the elephant to lift him up.
Whoa, that was a launch, not a lift.
And the reward, a big treat for a big animal.
Everybody's happy.
(slide swooshing)
Stick around, we have even more hilarious videos.
Surprise- - Oh, geez.
- Coming up next.
(upbeat music)
Welcome back to "World's Funniest Animals."
Just like humans, animals have a bit of a mischievous side,
but it's all in good fun.
Animals love a good surprise.
(suspenseful music)
(glass shattering)
- You just wait.
I'm gonna get you.
Pow, kitty litter everywhere.
(bird boinging) (audience laughing)
- Well, that's why Schnauzers do not make good bird dogs.
They're scared to death of birds.
(upbeat country music)
- [Owner] Ah, geez.
- He's like, wow, these horse flies
are really big this time of year.
Very heavy.
(audience laughing)
(playful cartoon music)
- Our pets are capable of things you wouldn't even imagine.
With enough treats and dedication,
just about anything is possible,
but it all starts with training day.
(electro dance music)
(audience laughing)
- Gotta get in shape.
Summer's almost here.
It's beach season, baby.
Gotta look good in my bikini.
(upbeat music)
- Little kitty workout while mama's on the treadmill.
- Okay. I know there are some low-cost treadmills out there,
but the cat powered model is really taking it too far.
(audience laughing)
(upbeat techno music)
(audience laughing)
- When I first saw this video,
I wasn't quite sure what was going on,
but now I got it crystal clear.
You've got a Boston Terrier
in training for the Boston Marathon, of course, right.
(audience laughing)
(upbeat techno music)
- Even though it's an ancient movie, I have always loved it.
And now they're finally doing it.
The remake of "The Sound of Music."
I'm so happy I cannot wait for it to come out.
(upbeat dance music)
- Now drop and give me 20, come on.
My grandmother can do better push-ups.
Give me 10 more.
(slide swooshing)
- 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 workout wonders, batty birds,
a scrappy scoundrel, kamikaze cats, sprinting sidekicks,
a cat that thinks it's going to ride a horse,
and a big welcome home for a hometown hero.
(upbeat music)
Thanks so much to our panel, and thank you for tuning in.
I'm Elizabeth Stanton.
We'll see you next time on "World's Funniest Animals."
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
(owner laughing)
- Oh. - That hurts.
(audience laughing)
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
(plastic cap clicking)
