The last of the six episodes of SBTV produced in Austin in 1997. Hopefully you’ll enjoy the rolling out of the New Toast from the National Toast Board. I highly encourage you to fast forward through the black and white Beatles sketch as soon as you get the slightest bit bored. We made the stupid decision to pad out the episode with it and it frankly bites. Otherwise enjoy!

The fifth episode of the 1997 Austin TV show. Probably the best of the six episodes. Features a thread of skits including, a TV announcer who takes his job home with him, a woman with a sound effects speech impediment, and a commercial for the horror film BUTTERFLIES.

Episode four of SBTV sees quite an improvement in camera and lighting. I believe several of these skits were shot on High 8.

Three of six in the series of SBTV I’m reposting. PLease remember to keep in mind that this was done in 1997. Also keep in mind that we’re not all as sacreligious as we might appear int his episode. But some of us definitely were.

Here’s the secondd of six SBTV episodes. It features American Analog Set’s Andrew Kenny as the star of “The Short Skit”. I miss Keny.

A classic from 1997 Austin. This is the first (and roughest) episode of SuBBrilliant Television, co-production of myself and Russ Pitts. We are currently in a dispute over who has the worst hair in these episodes.
