Pretty Things

If you're fortunate enough to live in the united states you'll have been able to catch the show on TV. For those that don't, the internet and DVD are the only options.

Pretty things (or Pretty Thingsss) is a comedy sketch show that follows the lives of dozens of unrelated characters and the characters of the TV shows they watch. Set in the same bizarre world where logic fails to exist.

The format parodies different writing styles/genres in each sketch, to the point.. or more accurately, to point out, that no one is safe from the scalding pain, ridicule, ridiculousness and disappointment the universe can only ever offer. unless of course you're lucky enough to be the shows shining star, Erika. Who always manages to achieve spiritual and mental highs while everyone else suffers.

This is a brilliant show that makes a point to point out the pointless. Sometimes shown by seemingly meaningless, yet strangely entertaining intervals during the episodes that leave you baffled well into the next sketch.

Cynical, sarcastic and just plain weird, if you've got an oddball sense of humour, this is for you. If you don't, steer far far away.
