Too Many Cooks is a surrealist comedy short that aired on Adult Swim in 2014, masquerading as a never-ending 1980s sitcom opening. What begins as a cheerful parody of shows like Full House slowly devolves into a dark, genre-bending slasher film featuring a recurring killer hiding in the background of the credits. The meme is typically used to describe situations where there are too many people involved in a task, leading to inevitable chaos, or to reference the infectious and haunting theme song. It has become a staple of internet subculture for its meta-commentary on television tropes and its disturbing transition from nostalgia to horror.
