I Can Make A Video Too

Gallagher

1992 · 30 min

A prop comic and his daughter parody nineties music videos.

Prop comedy gives way to music video parodies when Gallagher trades the stage for a camera and his eleven-year-old daughter, Aimee. The premise is a straightforward excuse for sketch work: Aimee has a school assignment to produce a music video, and her father decides to help. What follows is a series of tongue-in-cheek recreations of popular hits, marking a hard pivot away from his usual theater act.

Airing on VH1 in 1992, the broadcast arrived as the comedian’s massive eighties popularity was beginning to cool. It operates more as a novelty family project than a traditional routine. Because the video relies heavily on copyrighted tracks, it has vanished from official streaming channels, surviving mainly as a curiosity for lost media enthusiasts.
