Irony conceals jest behind seriousness, and satire conceals seriousness behind jest, and here you will find all these genres together: jest, satire, and irony (according to the Brown Spelling Book) about language and literature, readers and writers, doers and whiners. Profound and superficial. Licentious and literary.

Warning - Now that we no longer view men and women as objects of desire, thank God, it is good to remember how unrestrained things were in the Netherlands long before the restoration of Christian norms and values in 2007/2008. In twenty-seven scenes, which have never before been released on video or DVD—and which you have therefore never seen, not even once on VPRO television—the boundaries of sexual ethics and the resilience of our physical relationships are explored by Walter de Rochebrune and De Vieze Man, Carla and Frank van Putten, Ralph and Thea Ternauw, Jet and Koosje Veenendaal, F. Jacobse and Tedje van Es, Dirk, Koos Koets, Koot and Bie, and about twenty-five other reprehensible, white Dutch people. And this for over a hundred minutes.

Which includes the parody of the seventies craze of the sensitivity training, the simplistiese on culture, the stencil war, the slide with the clowns. And of course many other highlights from the first carpet-beater-years. Additional seen on this DVD: the four cinema advertising films that Lord Koot and Lord Bie made to promote the Postgiro. (The material on part 10 was aired between 1974 and 1976 by the VPRO television.)

Since the Dirty Man on television was introduced in society, his values deteriorated fast. The CPB recently estimated the number of dirty men in the Netherlands 406 350. The seventh part in the Van Kooten & De Bie series Our Look Our contains the dirtiest scenes of the One True Dirty Man. That there are still decent Dutch, prove the Sisters Veenendaal, mother and son Van Putten, Ralph and Thea Ternauw and many others who are also on display. A selection of nitrous oxide, ijzing- and repulsive topscènes and songs aired between 1977 and 1998.

"Keek op de week" was a satirical television program by the duo Kees van Kooten and Wim de Bie. In it, Van Kooten and De Bie discussed current events, usually through sketches featuring their various characters. They often held "conversations" with these characters via a screen, which in reality was just a blue screen. They also provided commentary on the news in a columnist-like style. The rug beater logo of Van Kooten and De Bie's "Simplisties Verbond" was still present, though placed modestly in the background. The song "Duke of Iron" by saxophonist Sonny Rollins served as the show's theme music.
