Michelangelo, interior decorator, and no green screen for Toby Stubbs
The week's one sketch imagines the Renaissance master taking on a modern home, and the comment section mostly wants to know where the usual backdrop went.

If Michelangelo Decorated Your House #comedy #history #interiordesign
"If Michelangelo Decorated Your House" is the one new sketch on Toby Stubbs' channel this week, and its premise sits right in the title: the man who painted the Sistine Chapel ceiling, let loose on an ordinary living room. The tags bring Raphael and da Vinci along for the ride, so the Renaissance seems to be out in force.
What viewers noticed first was not the frescoes. The most liked comment, and a dozen more behind it, point out that this is a Toby Stubbs sketch shot somewhere real, without the green screen his regulars expect. One commenter offers a good deal on a home Sistine Chapel. Another admits thinking of the other Michelangelo, the one with a shell and nunchucks, and someone has already suggested pitting the painter against the turtles.
The heavier lifting still belongs to "Building the Trojan Horse 🐴," a sixteen-day-old sketch past 1.7 million views that remains the channel's busiest. "God Creates the Fly 🪰" follows at a similar pace to the new upload.
It was a slow week overall: views ran well below the channel's usual pace, and the subscriber count held steady at about 1.1 million. Among comedy sketch channels of a similar size, dinocornel and INAFISH had the big weeks, while Olga Manassyan was the one running ahead of her own usual pace. History, it seems, is still where Toby's best jokes live.
