With a history stretching to seven years and 13 Emmy Award nominations, SCTV was a huge success straight from its inception as a television show in 1977. By 1981 it was in syndication on NBC and winning plaudits from peers and fans alike. The incredible cast included comedy favorites such as John Candy, Eugene Levy, Martin Short, and Rick Moranis among many others. The sketch-based format offered some biting contemporary satire, and has frequently been compared to Saturday Night Live. This release offers nine episodes from the first NBC season in their entirety, as well as some fascinating behind the scenes material.DVD Features:Region 1Boxed SetFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital Stereo - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Audio Commentary - 1.
