Next Time on Lonny



"Eddy: "You ever uh, huffed a human soul?""

Next Time On Lonny is a Web Original comedy series that parodies the Reality Show genre. The eponymous character in the Show Within a Show Lonny is "a flavorless twenty-something... [meandering] through his hipster existence desperately trying to meet girls." But "On the Next..." Lonny, "things get interesting... very interesting."

 * Deconstructive Parody
 * Disposing of a Body: "We have to bury the body... there's a landfill not too far outside of town. We'll inject the body with some embalming fluid and then toss it in a grave that I started digging early last week."
 * Fantastic Drug: Played with, since the episode had already shown cocaine and marijuana use before Lonny and Eddy huff human souls.
 * Foreshadowing: Lonny talks about his friend coming from his hometown, says "Chippewa Falls, my hometown, what, represent!" and flashes a gang sign. One episode later...
 * Freeze-Frame Bonus: The credits to Lonny change each episode, and include "Fluffer Consultant" James Cameron, "Police Supervisor" Rodney King, and a "Special Thanks" to Carlos Estevez.

 * Hey, It's That Guy!: Brian McElhaney and Nick Kocher of BriTANick make appearances, and you might know Alex Anfanger (Lonny) from a few of BriTANick's sketches.
 * It Got Worse: Nearly every episode, but especially Episodes 3, 4, and 5.
 * More Dakka: "My gun go off, nukka!"
 * N-Word Privileges: Hilariously played straight. Gangsta Lonny is the "token" white gang banger in his crew, but he can only call his boys "nukkas."

 * Oh hey look, Garrett's alive again.
 * Humanity was a  for a while, but everything's cool now.

 * Shoots his gun off to the side and straight up into the air.
 * "Points" at anything of interest with the gun.
 * Points it at his own head during the music video.
 * And yet, Lonny still exercises good trigger discipline...
 * Refuge in Audacity: Justified, because with a few less murders and psychotic breaks Lonny would fit well between True Life and The Real World.
 * Rule of Funny: Pretty much the only reason the show makes any sense.
 * Start of Darkness:
 * Shout-Out: And how.
