Revision as of 05:00, 31 January 2014
Watershed early '90s Sketch Comedy show that produced 13 episodes (12 of which aired) on the FOX network. Originally a sequel to a show that lasted about as long on MTV a year earlier.
Tropes used in The Ben Stiller Show include:
- Dueling Movies: Played with, when Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula gets followed up with Woody Allen's Bride of Frankenstein.
- Still The Eighties: Notably averted.
- Unintentional Period Piece: One of the most beautiful depictions of the early 90s that survives today (see Still The Eighties above)
- Why We're Bummed Communism Fell: Well, Yakoff Smirnoff is certainly bummed.
