In fact, Baroness von Sketch Show arguably makes a perfect companion piece with HBO’s freshman sketch comedy series A Black Lady Sketch Show, with the two highlighting opposite racial ends of the feminine spectrum, yet simultaneously covering a number of similar issues. Which, again, speaks to the impressive relatability of the series. * There is a sketch this season all about characters moving from Toronto to Hamilton (in Ontario, Canada), which may not track with United States geography but certainly captures the spirit that anyone can recognize about moving deep into the suburbs and away from all of your friends in the city. Because, despite the aspects of the series that make it very specific and come from a very underappreciated perspective and demographic (again, in addition to the Canada of it all*), it still is able to cover a large amount of the feminine perspective, regardless of race, ethnicity, and/or age. A similar resonance and connection actually comes with Baroness von Sketch Show, on an even greater scale-and despite the aforementioned Canadian middle-aged white women perspective. Regarding another recent Canadian/CBC comedy import, Workin’ Moms, I wrote about how, despite not being a “workin’ mom” myself, I’ve been able to greatly relate with and connect to the show, based on certain emotional universalities. (IFC has also already renewed the series for a fifth season.) It’s notable not just because of its status as a Canadian sketch comedy series-which is quite the lofty standard to live up to-but because it’s a sketch series from and starring four middle-aged white women, a fact it wears proudly on its sleeve. (10 episodes were available for review, and six episodes have already aired in Canada.) The sketch comedy series-starring, created by, and written by Canadian sketch comedy quartet Carolyn Taylor, Meredith MacNeill, Aurora Browne, and Jennifer Whalen (who also serves as showrunner)-originally premiered on Canada’s CBC Television in June 2016 before IFC started airing it for audiences in the States in the summer of 2017. Tonight, Canadian import Baroness von Sketch Show returns to IFC for its fourth season.
