German Fediverse lights up because John Oliver has stumbled upon "Bernd das Brot", a depressed loaf of bread made for a German kids TV channel.

Attached: 1 video John Oliver hat 10 Minuten über #Bernd das #Brot gemacht und erstaunliche charakterliche Übereinstimmungen festgestellt. 😂

public disclosure: I have worked on one of these TV night-time loops where Bernd is hassled in front of a white background or floating in space ;-)

@compfu Bernd is a cult figure. Children and adults like him. Children also understand German black humor, perhaps even more so than John Oliver does. His shows are splendid too.

@tocomplymeanstolie for some reason I found the part where John Oliver talks to Bernd not super funny. But I can't put my finger on why that it is. Maybe Bernd is talking too much.... or "The Void" is too annoying.

@compfu @tocomplymeanstolie the setup to the Bernd scene was way better than the scene itself. I also found the void not that clever, but the rest was great.

@prefec2 "The Void" wasn't clever. But the rest was jolly. @compfu

@compfu "The Void" was shitty. Just that simple.
