The Dana Carvey Show ran for eight episodes, seven of which originally aired on ABC in 1996. The short-lived sketch comedy helped launch the careers of Steve Carell and Stephen Colbert, while also introducing television audiences to The Ambiguously Gay Duo, which would later achieve fame on Saturday Night Live.

This Just In!: One sketch has Carvey as Tom Brokaw rehearse for a news promo in case Gerald Ford dies. Since this episode didn't air, it was recycled for when Carvey hosted SNL.

Laughing at Your Own Jokes: Carvey and Carell often play pranksters who pay people for service, then quickly run/drive away before being served. Cut to them laughing their heads off.

Exactly What It Says on the Tin: Many of the sketch titles. "Germans Who Say Nice Things" and "Waiters Who Are Nauseated by Food" come to mind.

Refuge in Audacity

comment
Refuge in Audacity: The very first episode opens with a skit of then-president Bill Clinton (played by Carvey) breastfeeding, and it just gets crazier from there.

Product Placement: Every Episode had a new title sponsor, getting more esoteric as the ratings fell to the point a local restaurant was apart of the name of the show.
