Whatever Happened to the Cast of ‘SCTV’?

SCTV (a.k.a. Second City Television and SCTV Network) was a legendary sketch comedy show from the Great White North that originally aired from 1976 to 1984. Though the show was known for its beloved characters, from Bob and Doug McKenzie and Johnny LaRue, it was most famous for its cast of comedic geniuses, including John Candy, Catherine O’Hara, Eugene Levy, Martin Short, Andrea Martin, Rick Moranis, and Joe Flaherty, who would go on to define funny TV for the next 50 years.

An offshoot of the Toronto branch of The Second City improv troupe, the sketch show centered on the fictional television station Channel 109 in the town of Melonville and offered parodies of pop culture with an edgy take.
