WBNK

WBNK is an imaginary television station created by my brother, Kevin and I (hence the name: W B 'n K). WBNK showcases our collection of strange and yet oddly amusing videos made from our high-school and early college days. These short clips were made with Super-8 and VHS-C cameras and were based mainly on sight gags and the humor of the popular Saturday Night Live (SNL) television skits. The following is what a normal day of broadcast programming might look like for WBNK. It begins with our early works and ends with recent broadcast parodies from SNL, Comedy Central, and Public Broadcasting System (PBS).
