In terms of expansive fantasy worlds, they don't come much grander than Skyrim. While not the biggest game ever made, not even for the Elder Scrolls series, it's generally considered one of the best open-world games of all time, alongside the likes of Minecraft, GTA 5, and Elden Ring.

What's quite clever about My Two Pence's mashup is the subtitles have changed some of the words to make it more relevant to the lore of Skyrim. Ted's name is replaced with «Dragonborn,» and when being accused of having a problem with people from Greece, it swaps it out the word for «Dunmer.» It's a brilliantly hilarious scene, and a classic from the show itself.
This is also not the first time something like this has been done. A while back, YouTuber Pertinax created a crossover between
