Asylum
Asylum can be. Set at a mental asylum, it ran into one series of six episodes. Unlike traditional sitcoms or humor television shows, it turned out to some extent an opportunity for standup routines by several comedians, mixed with an overall narrative. It is significant for between a significant number of comedians, many who've gone on to work with some of the previous decade's humor programmes. It marked the first collaboration of Jessica Stevenson, Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright, who'd go on to make cult sitcom Spaced. A number of the characters names were the same as the ones of the actors who portrayed them. David Devant & His Spirit Wife were the"house band" for the set, performing segments in every episode, by their very first record, Work, Lovelife, Miscellaneous. The lead in track"Ginger" functioned as the programme's title music. The show has yet to be published on DVD. The episodes have been viewable on the website of Norman Lovett.
