The First Temptation of Christ

2019 · 46 min

A gleefully irreverent, fast-moving sketch-style comedy that keeps poking sacred cows with deadpan silliness and cheerful bad taste.

Overview: Jesus, who's hitting the big 3-0, brings a surprise guest to meet the family. A Christmas special so wrong it must be from comedians Porta dos Fundos.
How it feels: Satirical, absurd, campy and light. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Family, faith, identity, sexuality
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
