The story
Why watch Team Darryl?
Darryl needs someone new to share his home after Thor leaves. The only response to his advertisement comes from the Grandmaster, giving an ordinary housing problem an extraordinary complication. Jeff Goldblum and Daley Pearson lead the pairing at the centre of this short, which keeps the roommate premise while changing the personality on the other side of it.
Darryl provides a steady point of comparison when the other resident changes. That makes this a useful companion to Team Thor: watch how the comedy shifts when the extraordinary housemate is the Grandmaster. The small setting gives the performances room to carry the scene, without requiring an action sequence to make the contrast clear.

A starting point
Team Thor introduces Darryl's role in the roommate sketches. Start there for the recurring premise, or follow the simple new-roommate setup here on its own. This is optional comedy viewing, not a new preparation requirement.
Story & release
Where it fits
Team Thor is a convenient introduction to Darryl, and Part 2 offers more of that earlier pairing. Thor: Ragnarok is a related character guide for the Grandmaster. Disney classifies Team Darryl as parody and comedy; this page treats the roommate premise as a comic side trip rather than evidence for the main films' chronology.
