Funny Girls (2015)

Rose Matafeo and Laura Daniel created and starred in this New Zealand series, which premiered on TV3 in 2015 and wraps its sketches in a sitcom about making a sketch show. The two play writers producing sketches for a fictional comedy series under condescending male bosses and an oblivious producer, so the frame gives the silliness a running joke of its own. It is a chance to see Matafeo before her international breakthrough, and the youngest, most chaotic energy on this list. A second-season sketch even made headlines when Comedy Central was accused of copying it.
