Studio C is an American sketch comedy television show originally created by Matt Meese and Jared Shores. Produced by BYUtv, the show aims to be a clean, family-oriented comedy for a national audience.

The show traces its roots to the Brigham Young University sketch comedy troupe Divine Comedy, which shares some cast members with Studio C. The show's name is a reference to the studio in the BYU Broadcasting Building where the show is primarily taped.

As of May 2023, the Studio C YouTube channel had over 2.7 million subscribers and had received more than 2.6 billion total views.

In August 2018, it was confirmed that Studio C would have a 10th season but the ten original cast members would be leaving after the 9th season to create and star together on a new family-comedy network called JK! Studios. In addition to Johnson and Pence's return, the 10th season and onward feature all-new cast members.

In October 2020, it was announced that Jason Gray would return to Studio C as a permanent cast member in the fourteenth season during Fall 2021.

On July 19, 2023, JK! Studios released a full length movie titled "Go West" in Utah theaters, containing the original 10 cast members of Studio C. It was released nationally on August 11. In 2024, many of the members of JK! Studios, in conjunction with Canadian improvisational comedian Colin Mochrie (of Whose Line Is It Anyway? fame), announced plans to release Villains Inc., a self-funded production with plans to use crowdfunding to pay for independent distribution.

On April 27, 2024, Studio C announced that Matt Meese would be returning for seasons 19 and 20 of the series, which will air Fall 2024 and Spring 2025.

On September 25, 2024, BYUtv announced special guests for season 19 (Steven He and Terry Crews), and season 20 (Jack McBrayer and Will Forte) of Studio C. BYUtv also announced that the Studio C YouTube channel had just reached 3 billion views.

Cast Performance Review

A recurring sketch theme starring Chuck Meegan, the fictional executive of the show's network, BYUtv.

An Unabridged Adage From Benjamin Franklin

A series of short sketches showing Benjamin Franklin (played by Ike Flitcraft) at a desk writing in his journal. Franklin starts by going off on some humorous and seemingly random rant. He then states an actual adage from the writings of Benjamin Franklin that is funny in the context of what he'd said before.

The Fainting Goat Boys Show

A fictional sitcom starring Garret Allen, Tanner Gillman, and Matthew Galvan as three teenage boys that snuck onto a farm one day to cow-tip. To their dismay, there were only goats on the farm, but they tried to tip them anyway. The farmer wizard who lived on the farm was angered and half-turned them into myotonic (fainting) goats as punishment. The show always ends in the boys being scared by something and fainting, causing an outburst of canned laughter.
