Boemerang Sketch A shortened version of the show Boemerang, in which host Erik Hartman (played by Tom Van Dyck) has a fit of hysterical laughter due to the high-pitched voice of his studio guest, who recently had throat surgery, gained widespread popularity online. In the full show, the host is shown in a flashback discussing this fit of laughter, which he claims ruined his television career. He is then shown sitting in a radio studio introducing a song. Due to its authentic portrayal, the sketch is often mistaken for a real talk show and was presented as such on the German program RTL Exclusiv.
