One of my favorite genres, always looking for more. Bonus points if it’s currently on streaming.

I’ve watched the absolute hell out of That Mitchell and Webb Look, Kids in the Hall, Whitest Kids U Know, and obviously SNL and MadTV but both of those had a lot of ups and downs.

I saw the one season each that Astronomy Club and The Moth Effect had and they were both pretty good. I’ve seen some A Bit of Fry and Laurie, but can’t find a good place to stream it. TripTank was basically a sketch show with cartoons, and I liked that a lot too.

    It’s definitely not for everyone. My wife and I have a lot of overlap in our comedy preferences and are both big fans of SNL and everything Mitchell & Webb have done. On the other hand, I Think You Should Leave is my all-time favorite sketch show, but she couldn’t even get through the first season. It’s got a real sense of absurdism and weird social interactions that aren’t for all tastes.

    Don’t feel bad if you can’t get into it - there’s tons of great TV out there. No need to waste your life on one show just in case you don’t like it. If you weren’t into the first few episodes you probably won’t like the rest as it’s all the same style.
