sketch show

A sketch show is a television program consisting of a series of short, humorous scenes called "sketches." Each sketch is a self-contained parody or comedic scenario that often satirizes everyday life, culture, or current events. The show features various characters, settings, and styles, typically performed by a cast of comedians or actors. Sketch shows rely on quick wit, clever writing, and timing to entertain, with little to no ongoing storyline. They are a popular form of comedy that offers a variety of laughs within a single episode, often reflecting societal themes through satire and parody.
