Synopsis Sketch comedy show set around the fictitious TV station SCTV. The programs broadcast by SCTV were parodies of films and other television shows. They included "Farm Film Report", Woody Allen's "Play It Again, Bob!", "Monster Horror Chiller Theatre", and "Great White North." Other skits involved the staff of SCTV, like president Guy Caballero, clueless newscaster Earl Camembert, washed up actor Johnny LaRue, and leopard-skin print wearing station owner Edith Prickley.

Product Description
SCTV’s incredible 5th season (yes, that’s Volume 4) finds the show renewed on NBC and still in the 90-minute format. Three cast members have departed, Dave Thomas, Rick Moranis and Catherine O'Hara—although Catherine makes a memorable return in "The Christmas Show," but Martin Short's star rose in their absence. His inimitable character Ed Grimley finds his way into many of the sketches. The Shmenges are back and John Candy introduces Mr. Mambo.
The Volume 4 box set features four Emmy-nominated shows ("Towering Inferno," "Christmas Special," "Midnight Cowboy" and "Sweeps Week"), plus Robin Williams as a guest in the "Jane Eyrehead" episode; it also includes musical guests John Mellencamp, Joe Walsh, and Crystal Gayle.

SCTV - Disc 1 - One on the Town & Polynesiantown
Read reviews, description, details, and more!
Product Description:
By popular demand, the first single SCTV DVD releases are now available. This DVD features two classic 90-minute shows along with bonus material.
One On The Town:
Highlights include "Leave It To Beaver 25th Anniversary," "Masterpiece Theatre: All The Long-Leggedy Beasties" and "Play It Again, Bob"— a superb parody of Woody Allen and Bob Hope’s comedic styles.
Polynesiantown:
The 5 Neat Guys spot and the Sammy Maudlin Show on drugs in Hollywood are ace, but the "Polynesiantown" film send-up — with the final crane shot that would become a running gag in future shows — is the real classic.
Bonus Feature:
SCTV Remembers – behind-the-scenes stories from Eugene Levy, Joe Flaherty, Catherine O’Hara, Andrea Martin and executive producer Andrew Alexander.
