We’re already seen some high profile spoofs of "True Detective," but this one takes the cake. Ellen Page and Kate Mara have teamed up with Funny Or Die for "Tiny Detectives," and the results are glorious.
The actresses play a detective duo who are much too short for their jobs. If evidence is on a high shelf or if they’re seated behind a tall dude in a police briefing, they are completely ineffective. And don’t even ask how they manage to drive around. It’s a hilarious, 2 minute long example for sketch writers everywhere that sometimes shorter is much better. Watch below.
not funny at all
The only cake this takes is urinal cake.
i died.
So funny! Being height challenged, I get it, and the change from the very serious and dramatic parts they played is hilarious.
love it
not funny
Another unfunny Funny Or Die skit that is going to get praised & passed around the Internet as "Hilarious" simply because it features two famous Hollywood actors slumming it for an afternoon. This stuff is trite click bait.
I am impressed, it\’s funny and simple.. it doesn\’t really get to the \’elements\’ of True Detective but it\’s just a funny concept put within that framework of gritty cinematography
Hmm… Not impressed. It\’s not really a parody of True Detective at all. In fact, other than the title of the sketch and the image of them sitting across the table from two black men who are questioning them, it doesn\’t even feel like the creators of the sketch have actually seen True Detective. There are so many iconic elements of it that could be parodied, and this one doesn\’t hit any of them.
