Matt Zoller Seitz

Jul 8, 2013

The phrase "stream-of- consciousness" doesn't do it justice. Geyser-of-consciousness is more like it. What holds it together is the program's unique comic voice. [12 Sep 1997]

Richard Leiby

Jul 8, 2013

Scenes fold into themselves and mutate with a chaotic precision not seen since Python. [23 Oct 1997]

John Haslett Cuff

Jul 8, 2013

Always unpredictable... It's by turns sophomoric and dazzlingly original. [14 Feb 1998]

Rick Marin

Suffice it to say that they're edgier and better than anything on "Saturday Night Live." [29 Sep 1997]

I'm hard pressed to find a sketch comedy show better than this one. The way each sketch molds into each other gives it a sense of unpredictability similar to that of Monty Python.
