Overview
Filmed in and around Portland, seen on IFC, this sketch-comedy series won three Emmys and a Peabody for brilliantly parodying Portland. Starring Fred Armisen (
SNL) and Carrie Brownstein (of the band Sleater-Kinney), executive produced by Lorne Michaels, it’s been called “charming and funny” (
Los Angeles Times), “snarky but not sneering” (
Slant), and the “smartest sketch comedy show on TV” (
Salon). Each season is 6–11 episodes, 2–3 ¾ hrs on 1–2 DVDs.
