This is pretty much the 'best' original comedy Germany has to offer. Real comedy died in the early 2000s over here, right when they stopped doing the American formats (SNL used to be "RTL Samstag Nacht", "Die Wochenshow" & "Freitag Nacht News" - The Late Show with David Letterman/Conan O'Brien/etc. was represented by "Die Harald Schmidt Show" ).
We had a good run of copying the real thing in the 90s. Thanks to the internet, we can all watch the originals now - Stewart, Colbert, Letterman, Fallon, Kimmel, Ferguson, Conan, Arsenio. Even Carson bits, old SNL and MADtv episodes can be found out there.. HALLELUJAH

The sad thing is that this sketch would have been just as funny without the tree (#8 potted plant)section. For example I always find it amusing that when people find gloves or hats on the pavement they pick them up and put them on a wall? whereas I'm sure if I lost a glove or a hat that's the last place I would look. Maybe she could have put the dog on a wall

#12 Exactly - although I feel like Don Rickles was the one who came up with that. I guess great minds think alike. Quotes like that would likely be considered hate speech over here.
The kind of humor in this video however, is basically the light/animal version of the southern U.S. racists laughing at blacks being lynched and killed for entertainment. It is actually a little disturbing to see such low-level comedy genuinely making people laugh... like watching a child torturing small animals with creativity and getting a kick out of it. Russians have a similar thing going on with all sorts of minorities - mostly gays though. Just dehumanize them and watch basic societal empathy disappear.
That's why all those super fucked up news storied are always out of Germany or Florida - or nowadays Russian dash-cam videos.
Considering how ethnically homogenous most communities are over here, Europe is actually more racist in context and less socially progressive than most communities in the U.S. when you just dig below the surface a little. Regional soccer is the best example - or even upper league - where black players are to this day sometimes greeted with bananas thrown onto the field.
The cultural diversity of the American population just leads to racism appearing more blatantly than the systemic, low-key racism in Europe, which can easily give rural areas in the South a run for their money.
That's why popular comedy is such a good indicator for the state of social issues and morality, because laughing at something is such a visceral response.
