These include: *''TripTank Reception'' - A scenario starting Steve (Jonah Ray), the receptionist for the show's animated broadcasters, and the janitor Roy (Eric Magnussen) who sulks around the lobby. The scenes are normally of Steven receiving calls from random people who watched the show, either to praise the show or express distaste for the content. After listening, Steve puts the caller on hold while he "transfers them to that department." There are also segments where Roy talks Steve into doing things that he normally wouldn't by himself. *''Versus'' - A show hosted by Death, in which two groups of unfairly matched combatants are pitted against each other in a fight to the death. Examples include a 3rd grade soccer team versus the Mongolian Horde. *''Jeff and Some Aliens'' - A trio of aliens come to Earth and invade the personal space of Jeff (Brett Gelman), who they consider to be the most average man on earth.

Comedy Central has picked up an animated series based on this segment. *''Suicidal Attention Whore Chicken'' - A short about a chicken who gets people to do whatever he wants by making suicide threats.
