Bruce McCulloch of "The Kids in the Hall" presents the next generation of Canadian sketch comedy with an all-out, boundary pushing expedition to the edge of decency. Starring Isabella Campbell, Shane Cunningham (co-creator), and Jillian Smart, with music by Executive Producer Max Kerman, THE DESSERT is an audacious and rapid-fire celebration of the absurd. Inspired by sketch comedy shows like “I Think You Should Leave” and “Kids in the Hall”, THE DESSERT is Crave’s first ever original sketch comedy series. Several sketches, such as ‘The Kiss’, ‘Sexy Drifter’, and ‘Jumpman’ have gone viral on TikTok.
