This looks like the worst thing on American television ever. It makes The Sketch Show look like a masterpiece, if the onsite clip is anything to go by. Is it always this bad?

I don't know, I prefer it to SNL usually. Debra Wilson is especially good. Her Whitney impersonations were hysterical.

Will Sasso is the only cast member keeping the show afloat, everyone else is deadweight.

I've seen a few sketches on it that made me laugh pretty hard, others were completely flat. I guess it's patchiness is inherited from the magazine.

incredible cast, better one than snl has had since like 95 (hilarious: phil lamarr, orlando jones, nicole sullivan, dude who played michael bolton in office space, omfg!!) but sadly the writing is v poor

five years pass...

where is that thread where skot got all sore butt defending it? I owe him an apology, an extremely half-hearted one but nonetheless...
The hospital show parody is occasionally genius, and all the ones I've seen tonight are well structured.
