The program features surrealistic and often satirical humor, public-access television–style musical acts, bizarre faux-commercials, and editing and special effects chosen to make the show appear camp. The program featured a wide range of actors, spanning from stars such as Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, David Cross, Bob Odenkirk, Will Forte and Zach Galifianakis, to alternative comedians like Neil Hamburger, to television actors like Alan Thicke, celebrity look-alikes and impressionists. The creators of the show have described it as "the nightmare version of television."

Thank God You Came!

2006
TV Show

An improvisational show in which celebrities and stars are covered with a thick layer of makeup and launched into non-standard everyday situations from which they must extricate themselves by showing a sense of humor. It turns out pretty funny. After all, the most interesting thing is when a star gets into a mess! And this is in almost every program. Every game is judged by the referee and the funniest friend is handed a useless gift - a plastic door.
