Spot the hepcat in the background.
The frog is fruitcake frog (Pepe, which is short for peepee). They have the same hands and tongue, and make retarded noises. Pepe is a parody of dipsticks and their wacky memes on the internet, so this frog is a parody of a parody. Surreal.
Lots of interesting things and metaphors to look out for.
Fruitcake frogs phone battery is usually on the last bar, and his bank account is lacking, as you would expect.
Security Guard ~ look out for the satellite.
Factory ~ ideal job for the Meedja Morons now that they are unemployed (and unemployable . . . ).
Launderette ~ fruitcake frog obviously has a lot of dirty laundry.
Farm ~ the dangers of meme farming.
Removals ~ a familiar looking pop star.
Observatory ~ satellite dishes (possibly a Pharos project).
Movie Extra ~ making a sci-fi film with green screen fun.
Cinema ~ the sci-fi film, hypnotoad, Shakespeare and satellite dish.
I haven't seen them all yet but there will be more fruitcake things in there.
Hopefully there will be a second series.
