Sketch Comedy Collage

One of my favorite TV program genres for the past several years has been sketch comedy. Funny television programming often cheers me up when I need it, plus I enjoy watching live episodes of SNL late at night before going to bed. (I enjoyed watching MADTV as well prior to its cancellation, often switching back and forth between the two on Saturday nights throughout my high school and college years.)

A couple of years ago, I worked another one of several collages I made in the past few years. This one consists mainly of photos of the ensembles from various sketch comedy and improv groups of the past and present which I have viewed on TV and/or the Internet throughout my life, along with certain screencaps from certain indivudal sketches.



List of sketch comedy groups and programs included in this work: SNL, MAD TV, Monty Python's Flying Circus, The Benny Hill Show, In Living Color, All That, You Can't Do That On Television, SCTV, This Hour Has 22 Minutes, Almost Live, Royal Canadian Air Farce, The Carol Burnett Show, The Abbott & Costello Show, So Random!, Fridays, Mr. Show with Bob and David, The Ben Stiller Show, Blue Collar TV, Studio C, Studio 60 On The Sunset Strop, The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, That Big Gay Sketch Show, Chappelle's Show, Red Green, The Kids In The Hall, and Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In.
