For the past 36 years there have been a lot of sketch comedy shows that have come and gone, shows like "Friday's," "Mad TV," "The State," "The Kids In the Hall," "Mr. Show with Bob and David," "The Ben Stiller Show," and countless others.

Hope you enjoy.

Oh, and here are the links to the online sketch groups and sketches we were talking about.
