Hailed as "the funniest thing on Canadian television since 'The Kids in the Hall,'" the award-winning "Baroness von Sketch Show" premieres to a U.S. audience courtesy of IFC. The all-female comedy series is created by and stars veteran Canadian actor Meredith MacNeill and Second City alumni Carolyn Taylor, Aurora Browne and Jennifer Whalen, who satirize modern life's everyday concerns, from the pretentiousness of ordering a fancy coffee to office and sexual politics. Other popular skits include a riff on being relegated to the over-40 section of a gym locker room, and a theory of what a women-only leadership summit would be like.

While Baroness Von Sketch Show is by no means the first hilarious all-female sketch series -- it does make notable strides in being less about pop culture parodies than about exploring the feminine perspective. Go to Full Review Jenny Nixon Common Sense Media 10/10/2017
