They really should release this show on DVD. As Adam noted before, it really is quite amazing how clever and ahead of its time it was, and equally amazing the caliber of talent that worked on the show in front of the camera and behind the scenes.
After the jump are several videos of Steve Carell and Stephen Colbert on The Dana Carvey Show. They've gone their separate ways, but if you include their work here and on The Daily Show and as Ace and Gary on Saturday Night Live, they could have been the next great comedy team. And then they would have gotten sick of each other and broken up and not spoken for 20 years and then reunited by Jon Stewart on a telethon.
Here's Colbert as a newsman, long before The Colbert Report:
Here's Carell as the Tin Man and Colbert as the Scarecrow in a Wizard of Oz parody (and that's Robert Smigel as Gene Shalit):
Here are Carell and Colbert as background dancers for "Madonny:"
Here are Colbert and Carell, as waiters nauseated by food:
And more Colbert as a newsman, and wearing a lot of makeup for some reason:
