Comedy

Longtime collaborators Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter (co-founders of The State comedy troupe, which spawned the same-named MTV show) join forces once again for this twist on narrative and sketch comedies that features the duo as hosts of their own fictitious sketch show. Behind the scenes, viewers see the two Michaels wrestling with how best to run the show, while they simultaneously confront their own issues of insecurity and jealousy as they try to undermine each other.
