I love how Ricky is the writer and creator of the show and he knows exactly what's coming, yet he's the one who breaks out laughing the most

Think some of this is improv
Andy Smith
@14 Aspen Drive you're right... a lot is improv, probably why Ricky laughs so much because they keep tweaking and changing it 🤣

One thing is thinking of something, and another is watching talented people performing it. Also improv
OfficialWhytey
Most of its improv

Its a mixture of improv and also the delivery of the lines. Writing a joke is one thing, but if it's not delivered well it will fall flat. Bit like how Amy Schumer steals funny jokes yet makes them bad.
Samyak Gadkari
Ricky isn't laughing at the jokes, it's the way the actors deliver the jokes he's written. That means the actors are doing a wonderful job at it.

Tesco Gaming
