 dOc DVD Review: Upright Citizens Brigade: The Complete First Season (1998)
From their secure underground bunker, UCB agents Adair (Besser), Colby (Poehler), Antoine (Roberts), and Trotter (Walsh) would launch a series of themed assaults (marketing, cyborgs, sex, etc), and that would form the underlying theme of the sketches to follow.
There are also a pair of live performances from the UCB Theater, with the troupe performing Little Donny (04m:20s) minus the pixelated penis, and Andre The Giant (03m:01s), where they sing an homage to the hulking wrestler.
There are also two Comedy Central UCB trailers (for a total runtime of 02m:38s), along with clips from Reno 911, Strangers With Candy, and South Park.
