[quote Aldehyde]The Hillywood Show does amazing music video parodies if you love certain tv shows & films. Their Supernatural one is probably the best known but they've done Doctor Who, Sherlock, Stranger Things, Suicide Squad, Hocus Pocus & more. Their M.O. is to pay homage to the originals by getting as close visually & audio-wise to the originals as they can, given that the lead roles are played by the two young women. They are ridiculously talented.

Forgot to add, they choose existing songs that match the show/film characters & change the lyrics, but often still match elements to the original music video too. It's a mashup that's very clever & you have to know the show & the original music version to catch all the references.

I fear IKEA by the Lancashire Hotpots to the tune of Wild Rover.

@Soubriquet
Glad you enjoyed it, as a SN fan it's a delight. They did a 2nd one too, plus behind the scenes vids that are really interesting in their own right. The amount of work & collboration that goes into them is huge Smile

I’ve gone down a rabbit hole with these now Grin

Some of these are brilliant.
I also love Tom Lehrer, and Half Man Half Biscuit.

And though they were not strictly a parody act, Ill Wind by Flanders and Swann via Mozart is just brilliant.

I remember this one when Trump got voted out. Still brilliant
