2014 ★ 6.9

The comic/folk duo Riki Lindhome and Kate Micucci hit prime time with their act in this scripted series for IFC. It follows hard-working underdogs trying to make their mark in comedy while muddling through messy dating scenarios, and doing so by performing one satirical (and often quite saucy) song after another. Nothing stops the ukulele- and guitar-wielding twosome from singing about life's unspoken truths, despite it leaving them detached from their peers. The series is titled after Lindhome and Micucci's band name, inspired by "two famous rock 'n' roll second bananas," Art Garfunkel and John Oates.

Wonder Showzen

2005 ★ 7.2

Wonder Showzen is an American sketch comedy television series that aired between 2005 and 2006 on MTV2. It was created by John Lee and Vernon Chatman of PFFR. The show is rated TV-MA. The show's format is that of educational PBS children's television shows such as Sesame Street and The Electric Company, parodying the format with adult-oriented content. In addition to general controversial comedy, it satirizes politics, religion, war, sex, and culture with black comedy. Every episode begins with a disclaimer, accompanied by the sound of someone screaming "Don't eat my baby!", which reads: "Wonder Showzen contains offensive, despicable content that is too controversial and too awesome for actual children. The stark, ugly and profound truths Wonder Showzen exposes may be soul-crushing to the weak of spirit. If you allow a child to watch this show, you are a bad parent or guardian."

Little Britain

Little Britain

2003 ★ 7.0

Die Sendung besteht aus einer Ansammlung kurzer Sketche über die alltägliche Exzentrik der Briten, die durch den Erzähler lose miteinander verbunden sind. Hierfür wird eine Reihe verschiedener Figuren beispielhaft grotesk überzeichnet dargestellt. Diese Figuren verkörpern zumeist soziale Randgruppen und die Abartigkeiten des "kleinen Mannes", weswegen ein starkes Stilmittel der Fäkalhumor ist. Die Kommentare des Off-Sprechers bestehen häufig aus absurden, in ernsthaft-wissenschaftlicher Manier vorgetragenen Nonsens-Informationen über Großbritannien. In den dargestellten Szenen macht man sich oft über „Political Correctness“ lustig. Ein weiteres Markenzeichen der Sketche ist, dass diese aus Serien mit immer wiederkehrenden Darstellern bestehen und die Pointen stets nach ähnlichen Mustern aufgebaut werden, wobei durch leichte Variationen des Ablaufs für Auflockerung gesorgt wird.
