This is an amazing split-screen comparison of Jerry Lewis in The Errand Boy (1961) — where Jerry the lackey is miming being the boss — and the "Brian & Stewie" episode of Family Guy (2010), put together by YouTuber MrEthernex. The music is Count Basie's "Blues in Hoss Flat" and appears in both original versions in lieu of dialogue.
