The success of Almost Live! is ridiculous. A two-bit comedy show, no budget, dropped into a black hole of a time slot; it loses its host, goes through a schedule and format change, airs sketches that almost get the station sued and the show canceled. Oh, and for good measure a cast member dies on set. In any sane universe these television experiences would be filed under How to ensure unmitigated failure. But in the bizarre world of Almost Live! apparently normal reality doesn't exist. Over fifteen years the show racked up more than 100 Emmy(R) Awards and becomes a ratings juggernaut. How the hell? Hear first hand accounts from the cast and crew, and relive memories of one of the most beloved and influential television shows in Seattle history. Billy Quan, High Five'n White Guys, The Lame List, Ballard Driving Academy, Cops in Kent, they're all here.
