The Ben Stiller Show
This comedy/variety show specialized in parodies of movies and television shows and commercials. Often, they would also have a special guest (e.g. a TV actor) join them in the comedy sketches with hilarious results.
For nearly half a century, 'Saturday Night Live' (SNL) has been a cornerstone of American television and comedy. Created by Lorne Michaels and first aired in 1975, SNL introduced audiences to a unique format combining live sketch comedy, parodies, satirical news segments, and musical performances. The show's enduring appeal lies in its ability to evolve with the times while maintaining its core essence: making people laugh by holding up a mirror to society.
Each week, a celebrity host joins an ensemble cast of comedians to perform sketches that parody contemporary culture and politics. This rotating roster of hosts keeps the show fresh and unpredictable. From George Carlin's inaugural hosting gig to recent appearances by modern icons, SNL has featured some of the most influential figures in entertainment. The guest hosts are supported by an extraordinary cast known for their versatility and comedic talent.
The show's current lineup includes seasoned veterans like Kenan Thompson, who holds the record as the longest-tenured cast member in SNL history. Thompson's ability to embody various characters has made him a fan favorite over his impressive career span on the show. Other notable cast members include Cecily Strong, Kate McKinnon, Colin Jost, Michael Che, Aidy Bryant, Fred Armisen, Seth Meyers, Darrell Hammond, and Bobby Moynihan—each bringing their unique flair to the stage.
