The Second City has a deep vault of material shot over the years that they've posted on YouTube -- including a special made-for-TV show called "The Second City's 149½th Edition" made for A&E. The 48-minute show featured a young Steve Carrell and Jackie Hoffman; Stephen Colbert and Amy Sedaris were among the writers. It's hard to tell whether it ever aired, but it was available on VHS from A&E Home Video. Watch the whole thing, sans commercials, here:

Um, NO Stephen Colbert and Amy Sedaris WERE NOT writers. I was there; I know. Steve was the "next big thing" as we shot that show and as fame would go, he wasn't the "next big thing" until 15 years later.
