“Goodbye mailbox.”

If you were at the Portlandia panel today at the Paley Center, Julie Klausner brought up our shared love for the “TAT’S ALL FOLKS” ending to their recent Eddie Vedder sketch. She also quickly mentioned the ending of THIS sketch from The State. Truly one of my favorite scenes of all time. I used this as an example when I used to teach sketch writing at UCB. Basically, if you don’t like this… you’re a TERRIBLE PERSON.

I unfortunately missed the Portlandia Paley Center Panel but I’m glad I was THERE IN SPIRIT obviously.

this is one of my favorite sketches ever. I’ll level with you.

The State was my favorite show when I was a kid.  Whenever I end a sketch on a non sequitur I call it a “Goodbye mailbox” ending.

    Yep. Possibly the best ending to a sketch ever. Plus it makes me want tacos. Wins all around.
