What are some Sketch comedy shows that seem to have been lost to time? I'll start with one so obscure that I cant even find any promos for it, Comedy Central's Limboland, a short-lived one that had the sketches performed on a plain white backdrop.

A British show called the oh so original title The Sketch Show which featured Lee Mack among others.
They ended up making an American version produced by Kelsey Grammer, who would appear in the first and last sketch, the cast includes Lee Mack returning, as well as Mary Lynn Rajskub, Kaitlin Olson and Paul F. Tompkins.

House of Buggin'.
Fox's attempt to create a Latino In Living Color.
The one and only thing I remember from it was a skit where someone says, "Vanna White, you've just been outed! Your new -- and better -- name is, VANNA BLANCA!"

The Newz. Which was unique because it was a nightly show. I only remember Mystro Clark from it though.

I only vaguely remember that as the show where Jennifer Aniston started out and the cast was Kenny McCormicked every week in violent demises. |

My favorite part of Buggin was actually the movie commentary, especially when they freaked out over Kirk’s death in Star Trek Generations (that was actually a pretty controversial call, looking back). |

Fancy Boy
An Australian sketch comedy from just a couple of years ago that was buried late night on the ABC’s secondary channel. Had sort of twisted dark humour like a repeating sketch featuring a newly elected U.S President being forced to give an grotesque alien BJs in exchange for technology advances, and a kid’s swimming pool entertainer dying mid performance and the family keeping the body in the pool for practical reasons.
Only had one season. Because it had little to no promotion.

I liked House of Buggin' a lot when I was a kid. First time I ever saw John Leguizamo in anything.

Roundhouse on Snick was All That before All That. I liked Roundhouse because it was both funny and pretty smart. |
