Michael Showalter unearthed a clip from an obscure sketch show with Stephen Colbert

Though he was ostensibly there to promote Netflix’s Wet Hot American Summer sequel or The Big Sick (which he directed), Michael Showalter took some time out of a recent appearance on Stephen Colbert’s Late Show to unearth a weird artifact from their past. As comedy fans surely know, Michael Showalter was part of MTV’s short-lived (yet beloved) ‘90s sketch show The State, and Stephen Colbert was part of Comedy Central’s similarly short-lived ‘90s sketch show Exit 57, but after both of those had ended they briefly teamed up for a VH1 sketch show called Random Play that also featured Jim Gaffigan, Andy Richter, and a few other comedy people who have gone on to better things.
