Returning Series

De Dierenwinkel (The Pet Shop) is a recurring sketch from the Dutch absurdist comedy show Jiskefet that aired between 1992 and 1995. It primarily features a pompous, eccentric shop owner (played by Herman Koch) and a polite, equally strange customer (played by Michiel Romeyn). Common plot points involve the customer seeking a specific or rare creature, only to be sold a completely different (and likely non-existent) animal described with bizarre biological "facts."
