Every sketch group I know has lived together in a house. Lonely Island got their name from living together in a house in Culver City, Monty Python famously owned a monastery and, of course, Human Giant had their bone cathedral.

The type that looks fine by itself but once put together turns the room into something so ugly that makes you wish you were blind. Well, that’s where we watch TV.
When it comes to just living in it, our house is great. All of us love giving tours and showing off our weird paintings and antique furniture. But sometimes, when filming, our house works and sometimes it really doesn’t.

I’ll leave you with this:
That’s our kitchen but, mostly, it’s William covered in leeches from the sketch Jalapenos.
