The Comedy Central comedy sketch show, Key & Peele, ran for five strong and hilarious seasons and centered on Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele in every skit as countless different characters. Both Key and Peele have the ability to play level-headed characters or completely outrageous characters so it’s always a surprise who will play who or if they’ll both be playing outrageous characters in any given sketch.

After the show’s end, both have moved onto film as Key has turned to acting and Peele has turned to directing. It’s great to see both of their careers thrive after Key & Peele, but we’ll never forget their iconic sketches from the show, let’s revisit the top-rated episodes of the series.

Key plays a girl power popstar who has some questionable songs and deals with some tough questions from fans.

The three real-life victims of a Human Centipede reunite with two happy to see each other and the third just hoping to move on past the trauma. There’s also a Harry Potter spoof as we visit an inner-city wizarding school that doesn’t get as much funding as Hogwarts. An episode that’s worth a watch at any time of the year, but definitely worth a Halloween watch!

4 Georgina and Esther and Satan (S4 E3) – 8.2

Key and Peele play two elderly church ladies who describe how they would deal with Satan if the devil doesn’t let go of their relatives, in an outrageous sketch that continually escalates to a hilarious conclusion.

The first skit of Key’s iconic substitute teacher character sees him take roll call and is frustrated as he feels he’s correctly pronouncing everyone’s names and they’re just messing with the substitute.

1 The End (S5 E11) – 8.3

The last episode of the series sees Peele sing a few other movie themes as Ray Parker Jr., who sang the Ghostbusters’ theme. Key tries to snap Peele out of it when he can’t stop saying “deez nuts” even in the most depressing of situations. Key has to call 911 but can’t focus on the safety of the woman who fainted because he’s falling in love with her.

Peele sings in a movie musical version of an all-black town where they all live in harmony and don’t have to worry about being prejudices. It’s a good send-off for the show as it ends with a few minutes of fun bloopers, Key and Peele finally reaching their destination, but immediately turning around and driving off on the stranded highway.
