America 2-Night(1978)

America 2-Night is a talk-show parody series that aired from April to July 1978 as the sequel to Fernwood 2 Night. Barth Gimble returns as the earnest, bumbling host, with Jerry Hubbard alongside him as co-host, while Happy Kyne and the Mirth-Makers provide musical interludes. The show skewers late-night television conventions through absurdist humor and satirical celebrity interviews, maintaining the mockumentary style of its predecessor. With its short run and cult following, America 2-Night captures the spirit of 1970s comedy through deadpan performances and ridiculous on-air scenarios that parody the formulaic nature of mainstream talk shows.
