The Sifl and Olly Show

The Sifl and Olly Show is a comedy TV series that incorporates sock puppets, animation, and musical performances.

Lynch left Kent State and the duo was separated for a few years, but they reunited in Nashville, Tennessee in the 1990s and recorded the comedy album Camp Sunny Side Up on a 4-Track.

Lynch had been inspired by a series of British commercials by Aardman Studios and had hoped to do stop-action clay animation, but he did not have the money or the equipment for it.

Lynch chose the name for the puppets from a fake commercial Crocco had made for one of their recordings, and Sifl & Olly were born.

The popularity of the clips led to MTV America offering a half-hour format called The Sifl & Olly Show in July 1998.

Often preceded by familiar intro screen and a short theme song, the segments included: Fans of the show call themselves "sockheads".

There is also an online group of Sifl and Olly video traders that are petitioning MTV to release the entire series on DVD.

One group of fans even recorded a tribute CD recreating some of their favorite songs called Banging on Some Pots and Pans.

On one episode of his TV show The Boondocks, Huey exclaims to his grandfather's girlfriend that he is doing "prostitute laundry", which could be a direct reference to Sifl and Olly's song of the same name.

On September 2, 2012, a promo appeared on the Machinima YouTube channel for a new show called Sifl & Olly Video Game Reviews.

After the credits of the eighth video game review episode which aired on October 28, 2012, it was announced that Sifl & Olly were being moved to the Nerdist YouTube Channel.
