This show, which I haven't seen broadcast here in the United States for several years now, was very refreshing. Alot of my friends who should have enjoyed this show could not get over the fact that the show stars sock puppets. The puppets are actually very clever. The puppetry is also very good. The humor is irreverent, free wheeling, touches a wide range of topics, and threatens to dissolve into nonsense at any moment. Indeed, one of the creators best tricks is to make you think just such a thing is happening, and then to have the characters respond to it and pull it back from the brink, or burst out in seemingly spontaneous laughter when they fail to do so. If you are Ok with sock puppets, you will like this show. My only criticism is that when I watch my taped episodes, a few are somewhat dated now.

This show is THE FUNNIEST SHOW you will ever see! Where else can you witness sock puppets with amazing senses of humor (and great singing voices, to boot) interview planets, mushrooms, plants, and batteries? Nowhere. Much like cheese, you have to experience it for yourself to understand it.

this show is just brilliant. Its mtv's fault for yanking it. It never got a chance to truely be good. Up until now I didnt know such a brilliant and funny show could be made on such a small budget and with friggin sock puppets. chester was the man. god I loved this show. (@#&*$ mtv!

"Sifl & Olly" always made me laugh. My friends and I bonded together with the show, giggling about the llama song and Chester getting girls by keeping cereal in his pocket and Olly pretending to be an inventor who created velvet and the dance floor. I made some recordings of the show, and I treasure them. I would love to see a "Sifl & Olly" VHS collection. To the guys who created the show -- great job! Please give us more imaginative programs.
