A very bizarre sketch comedy show that ran on MTV, 'The State' has recently been released on DVD. Despite rave reviews and a small cult following, lack of advertisment lead to sub-par viewer ratings and subsequent cancellation. The short lived 29 episode show was extremely popular among high school and college students. During it's run from 1993 - 1995, catch phrases from the show became part of everyday vanacular for it's younger audience. Known for it's off-the-wall characters and off-colour skits, the creators of the show wanted to do something different from the cookie cutter sketch comedy programs out at the time. Consisting of 11 regular cast members, whom are all still active in Hollywood, there are some familiar faces. Some notable cast members include Ken Marino ('Role Models'), Thomas Lennon ('Role Models', 'I Love You Man', 'Reno 911!'), Joe Lo Truglio ('Pineapple Express', 'I Love You Man' and upcoming movie 'Paul').
