Studio C

Like SNL, this is a sketch show. Although, there's no swearing whatsoever. If your kid wants to watch sketch comedy, show him/her/other stuff like that. It's a simple and wholesome show with funny jokes that'll please your child's sense of humor.

The hard question for Christian, Catholic, Mormon faith based TV is how do you create a show that is funny yet clean.

The answer is twofold. One, don't be religious. Studio C is wholesome and clean but is not religously themed. It will incorporate religious references but not hit you over the head with the meaning.

Two, let it be funny. In order to be funny sometimes you have to be mean or snarky. You do not have to be crude, abusive, or vulgar.

I have yet to see any other religious network find this mix with a show that could even be considered in this show's league.

Beyond that the writing is generally very clever, the acting good, and the jokes funny. Like any sketch comedy show, some sketches are better than others. However, consistently most are funny and some are out and out hilarious. The anthologoy of worst insert profession here is absolutey great. However, it think the best sketch was Shakesperean Therapy - if you have not seen it check it out.

We discovered Studio C half-way through season 2. We wish we had discovered it a long time ago. Luckily we can find any missed episodes on their web page. It's so funny! We can watch and laugh together as a family (4 kids ages 7-19) because it doesn't contain anything inappropriate--no sexual innuendos, no profanity, nothing embarrassing to watch as a family. Also many of their sketches are familiar enough that we can understand the humor, yet there's a lot of creativity. All the actors are very talented, many can sing and dance and are attractive. Mostly they are all hip and funny. We all love it! We're hoping to catch a taping for season 3 if we're ever in Utah. AWESOME!

This is the only show I watch as it comes out instead of getting to it later with no commercials, which isn't to say that I don't go back and watch the individual skits over and over. This stuff is so funny, and you can find all of it on youtube if you need to catch up.

If you're like me and think that SNL only has one funny skit in twenty lately, then you'll love these guys. Just about every skit is comedic gold and all of it is clean and decent. You really can't go wrong here, and if you do check it out on youtube, I can guarantee that just about any skit you click on will be hilarious. When IO go looking to watch one again, I always find myself having trouble choosing the next one from the amazing selection of great skits on the right side. You really gotta check them out. We could all use a good laugh.

Studio C is one of the most clever and funny shows available to the general public. If you like SNL you will love this show AND guess what? No filth. No sexual innuendo, dirty language, etc. Originally written for a college audience, Studio C still has enough to appeal to kids and grandpas and everyone in between. I can watch it with my four year old. Studio C features the band "Mates of States" at times. It also has ongoing sketches like "Dungeons and Dragons", 'Gary and Carl" and "Tweeting Rainbow". They have on- and off-set sketches to mix things up as well. The episodes air on Monday evenings and can be found on the Studio C YouTube channel as well as BYU-TV.
