PEN15 is a comedy web television series that premiered on Hulu in 2019. The show was created by Maya Erskine, Anna Konkle, and Sam Zvibleman. It follows the lives of two 13-year-old girls, Maya and Anna, as they navigate through the ups and downs of middle school in the year 2000.

Follow along with the lives of several aspiring soon to be medical professionals who must endure the fast paced, physically demanding world of medical training. Medical interns have always been expected to complete this "trial by fire" method of learning and though the "burn out" rate is low many find it the most difficult time of their lives. Scrubs deals with the trying times of interns through much humor and a fast paced script each week. The actors are encouraged to improvise with their character's dialog in each episode, making the show interesting and always including something unexpected. Among the cast are Sarah Chalke (Rosanne, How I Met Your Mother) as Dr. Elliot Reed, Zach Braff (Manhattan Murder Mystery, Twelfth Night) as Dr. John Dorian, Donald Faison (Clueless, Remember the Titans) as Dr. Chris Turk, and Neil Flynn (The Middle, Re-animated) portrays the janitor who torments Dr. Dorian in what was supposed to be a one episode appearance but grew into a permanent character role. Scrubs shows the humor inside the manic determination that is part of becoming a doctor and this fast paced show always offers something different and fun to watch.

And so does the original title which was Are You There Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea. The shows protagonist character, Chelsea Newman is based on Chelsea Handler and her friends who are a group of working class folks from New Jersey. The real Chelsea is Chelsea Joy Handler, a comedienne as well as TV talk show host who wrote the book. In this sitcom we find Laura Prepon (That 70's Show, October Road) playing the main role and even the real Chelsea Handler has a minor role as Sloane. Others include Jake McDorman (CSI: Miami, Greek) as Rick, Dee Dee is played by Lauren Lapkus (a stand up comedian and improvisationist), Melvin is portrayed by Lenny Clarke (Rescue Me, The John Larroquette Show), and as Olivia is Ali Wong from Breaking In, Chelsea Lately. Many of the characters are based on the book by Chelsea Handler and take place in the sports bar the character works. Expect to see plenty of outrageous behavior from this twenty something social group.

Scheduled as a mid-season replacement for "The Defenders" on CBS, "Chaos" is scheduled to premier on April 1, 2011"”just in time for spring sweepstakes. The producers describe "Chaos" with the oxymoron "comedic drama," which can translate to brilliant satire and much wry laughter, or which can degenerate into serious genre-confusion and disaster. A veteran small-screen cast and an eight o'clock time-slot give hope to producers and CBS programming execs. In "Chaos," a group of CIA renegades combat serious threats to national security under the auspices of "Clandestine Administration and Oversight Services," a hint the writers coined the acronym before filling-in the words. The group includes a young, ingenuous-looking super-sleuth, a psychologist turned spy with a gift for tactics and motivation from severe paranoia. "CAOS" also includes a disgruntled former employee of the British Secret Service, and a seasoned CIA veteran with the capacity to morph into a human weapon. The collection sounds like a sure-fire formula for chaos, and the "Chaos" ensemble has potential to wring big laughs from total incompetence, but they remain vulnerable to looking like the farm team for TNT's "Leverage."

As Larry David developed "Seinfeld," he openly and unabashedly acknowledged it was "a show about nothing." Now, "Curb Your Enthusiasm," Larry David's show about Larry David similarly is a show dedicated to complete dramatization of practically nothing. Somehow, it manages to be funny anyway. Larry David stars as Larry David, who is a fictionalized version of Larry David. No narcissism in that set-up. The coincidences persist through the rest of the cast: Cheryl Himes plays Cheryl, Jeff Garlin plays Jeff, and Susie Eastman plays Susie, making it much easier to play along on the home version. A semi-retired television writer, David has trouble adapting to the social conventions in Los Angeles, and he devotes a great deal of time and energy to correcting or making-up for his mistakes"¦except when he correcting other people's rude or outrageous behaviour. In its way, "Curb Your Enthusiasm" testifies to David's and the cast's comic genius, because he outlines the plot for each episode, but the actors improvise all of the dialogue, keeping their own enthusiasm well under control.

Former Daily Show with Jon Stewart correspondent Stephen Colbert is a political humorist and that means he has a license to poke fun at politicians and just about anybody else that gets in his creative path. It's a stretch but Stephen Colbert plays fictional anchorman Stephen Colbert, or in other words, he portrays himself in a spoof and political pundit filled show that has earned a slew of award nominations. If it's a serious news event you can bet it will show up on the Colbert Report, often with a unique twist. Some stories don't need to be embellished upon because they play out humorous no matter what and that's life. Some times the show has cultural influence as in the case of a bridge being named after Colbert by the Hungarian Ambassador, who presented Colbert with a declaration certificate when a vote declared him the winner. As it turned out Hungary does not name their bridges after living people so it never happened but he did win the vote. It just goes to prove how powerful having a television show with your own name on it can be in the U.S.
