Schitt's Creek

Schitt's Creek is a TV show available for streaming on the BINGE platform.

5 videos

Why it worked

The video uses humor and relatable exasperation with responsibilities (even if exaggerated with Tamagotchis) to create an engaging narrative. The quick back-and-forth dialogue and the unexpected mention of 'leggings' add to the comedic effect, making it shareable.

Summary

Alexis complains to David about the overwhelming responsibility of caring for six Tamagotchis, which she likens to a full-time job. David retorts that he left her with six healthy Tamagotchis, and they were all dead by the time he returned, implying she was neglectful. The conversation shifts to Alexis needing help with boxes, and she mentions her mom texting her at 3 AM about leggings, suggesting a humorous distraction from her Tamagotchi woes.

Structure

1Alexis expresses frustration with Tamagotchis
2David defends his actions regarding the Tamagotchis
3The conversation shifts to needing help with boxes

Original caption

That time Alexis killed 6 adults. Stream Schitt's Creek now on BINGE. #SchittsCreek

Product placement

Schitt's Creek (TV show) - APPEARS - removing it would not change what happens in the video. BINGE (streaming service) - ACTS - it is the platform where Schitt's Creek can be streamed, removing it would change where the show can be watched. Tamagotchi (toy) - ACTS - it is the subject of the conversation and the source of the conflict, removing it would change what happens in the video.
