Sundays at 8:30pm et/pt on The WB

An innovative new half-hour sketch comedy show from former top Mad TV writers Scott King, Lanier Laney and Terry Sweeney (of the uproarious Felicity parody Intensity), Hype skewers all things hyped, setting its sights on popular culture and the never-ending media frenzy that feeds it. From The WB to MTV... Britney Spears to Prince William... Regis Philbin to Lil' Kim... Patsy Ramsey to Princess Diana -- no cow is too sacred.

Combining the talents of a diverse ensemble cast and three of television's hottest comedy writers, Hype serves up fast-paced, fearless satire and cutting-edge parodies as they lampoon television, movies, sports, fads, news, advertising, the Internet and politics. Framing the zeitgeist-of-the-week within pervasive pop culture icons, the show's creators liken Hype to a "Laugh-In" for a new audience.
