So I think there's the kernel of an entertaining idea here, regarding how idioms translate, but I have such an immediate, visceral reaction to how unfunny Pete Holmes is that I'm not really feeling charitable here. I think as soon as the woman whose head was underpants showed up, we crossed the line past anything that could be salvaged.
I'm not familiar with Pete Holmes but it would have been nice to have Paul Wesley voice Kirk to provide some aural continuity.
I watched "Too Many Cooks" in preparation for Very Short Treks and so thought "Skin a Cat" was tame in comparison. I enjoyed it. 'Twas silly.
I don't think the character was supposed to be Kirk. The credits on the youtube video's page just has Holmes credited as "The Captain".
Obviously no good is going to come of overanalysing the joke, but maybe it was a Jellico situation?
A Jellico cat perhaps?
I don't think that was supposed to be Kirk, it was credit as just "Captain".
