SCTV to Stream in Full on Prime Video for First Time
Canada’s iconic comedy sketch program ‘SCTV’ is set to be available on streaming in its entirety for the first time. Prime Video recently announced that all six seasons of this beloved series will be accessible to Canadian viewers starting on March 3.
Originally adapted for television by The Second City Toronto, ‘SCTV’ graced our screens from 1976 to 1984 on various networks like Global, CBC, and NBC. With its offbeat, surreal sketches, ‘SCTV’ played a pivotal role in the careers of legendary Canadian comedians including Catherine O’Hara, Eugene Levy, John Candy, Martin Short, Rick Moranis, Andrea Martin, and Dave Thomas.
In recent years, finding the complete series was quite a challenge, with only snippets available on platforms like YouTube. However, the wait is finally over, as fans can now binge-watch all seasons of ‘SCTV’ in one place.
In recognition of its cultural impact, the City of Toronto plans to honor ‘SCTV’ with a heritage plaque, set to be unveiled on March 24. This celebration coincides with the launch of the 91st Mainstage Revue, marking almost a century of comedy excellence.
The availability of ‘SCTV’ on Prime Video is a monumental occasion for Canadian comedy enthusiasts, as it keeps the legacy of this iconic show alive for generations to come. So get ready to laugh out loud and experience the magic of ‘SCTV’ like never before!
