One great gift the Mormon community has given the world is the completely inoffensive and totally hilarious Studio C TV show and Youtube channel.
Four Brigham Young University alumni--Matthew Meese, Mallory Everton, Whitney Call, and Jason Gray--began writing the show after they formed a friendship in the Divine Comedy troupe at the university. They invited other alumni from the troupe to join them, and the show, produced by BYUtv, has run six seasons. The Youtube channel has segments from the show, and has racked up over 1 million subscribers and nearly 600 million total views.
And why the name "Studio C"? Not very exciting. Apparently the BYU Broadcasting Building has a studio they call "Studio C" where they run this show in front of live audiences. Leave it to unimaginative building name-ers to come up with a name for a show this great. It works, though, and I guess that's most important.
Since the rest of the world is trying to reduce their carbon footprint, it’s time that the Amish did their part.
11. Flirting Academy / Flirting Academy Graduation
For the socially challenged, Studio C is here to help. Whitney valiantly tries to help her fellow cast members to overcome their fear of the opposite gender.
10. The Medieval Presidential Debate
Surely King Arthur’s resemblance to a current presidential candidate is purely coincidental.
Studio C brings international drama to the grocery store—and the stereotypes are spot-on.
A normal weather announcement takes a very unexpected turn—for the worse.
When you thought that prom dress fashion couldn’t get any more frightening, Studio C steps it up.
After making it past shopping as a couple for the first time, Matt and Mallory face their second challenge: carrying all the groceries in to their apartment on one trip.
5. Lady Gordon’s Fainting Spells
When Studio C takes us back to the Revolutionary War era, we learn that chivalry can be more overwhelming than we imagined.
Who is "that person" the cast members keep vilifying?
3. A Mother’s Overbearing Love
Jeremy finds that therapy isn’t helping him— but sometimes the cheapest option isn’t the best one. The line you can appropriate for your own use? “I’m not saying, I’m just saying. I’m not saying, I’m just saying.”
2. Prop Switch
Probably the only Studio C sketch where the dialogue sounds memorized, but it’s worth it. Matt and Mallory run the same sketch with identical lines, but change a key prop half-way through.
Steven and Whitney play a couple who (inexplicably) decides to add a “third wheel” to their relationship. The incomparable Matt plays a candidate who interviews for the job. Best line? “Thank you for showing me the life I’ll never have!”
