“Rent:
The Allergy Season”
www.youtube.com/
This parody of the Broadway musical
and movie is set in Upstate New York, instead of New York
City. The characters suffer from allergies, not AIDS. The
bit with the citronella candle is especially humorous.

Love Service”

If you are allergic
to Fido or Fluffy, here is your solution. It’s a
toss-up as to which is funnier – the expression on
the wary black cat’s face or the very hyper commercial
pitchman.

Panda”

“Ed and
Oucho”
www.youtube.com/
Ed and Oucho the Cactus are CBBC
characters, featured in many YouTube clips. (The CBBC is
the British Broadcasting Corporation’s channel for
children.) In this clip Ed is battling hay fever, much
to Oucho’s dismay. The pile of wadded-up tissues
in front of them just keeps growing.

“Allergies
be Gone”
www.youtube.com/
A boy has a super allergy multiplier
quantum destroyer. Alas, he blows himself up trying to

young actor does a great job with different voices.

accidentally sprayed himself or herself in the face with
