Lynch got the most name recognition for his 2002 single, United States of Whatever. Since the show’s end, his career has been prolific and unpredictable. Lynch is grateful that fans no longer have to settle for janky tapes or heavily pixilated YouTube uploads to see the show, and he says he’s proud of MTV for actually getting it done, but it’s not like he’s been idly waiting for a Sifl & Olly revival. “They had sold everything and they finally got to the back of the closet and they were like, ‘What’s this? Sifl & Olly?’” Its bizarre segments included interviews with the planet Mars, and commercials for something called lice monkeys
“Maybe with MTV it’s a desperate, ‘What else can we sell?’” says Lynch. Then, after Lynch had been told five different times that it was coming, it finally happened. More than a decade later, the show makers and followers had basically given up hope. Show and Get a Life, but no sets appeared. There was a possibility in the early years of the 21st century that Sifl & Olly would get an official release on DVD, like other alt-comedy touchstones Mr. After its cancellation, bootleg VHS copies of Sifl & Olly were sold on eBay, though repeated compressing, dubbing and tape degradation often made the images on these versions look like moving Pointillist paintings.
In a 1998 article in Spin, Lynch and partner Matt Crocco (who also provided the voices for the titular characters) mentioned that Portishead once told them that the show provided some much-needed laughter while the group was making their second album.
While Sifl & Olly was an acquired taste, it did have dedicated fans.
