The Caribou Show is a locally produced sketch comedy television show, which was recorded in the Sioux Falls, South Dakota, USA, area. The half-hour show was broadcast weekly on Sunday mornings at 12:30 am on KDLT.

The program's original title was Captain Caribou. Initially, the program started out with a spoof of the long running Captain Kangaroo program, featuring Chuck Brennan as Captain Caribou.

Premise[]

Much of the show's comedy was often based on South Dakota topics, such as the abortion ban, gun control, and home schooling. A number of sketches appeared on the show regularly, including Booby Boobenheimer, Harry Back, and Ag East of Salem. Other sketches were parodies of well known television programs, such as Antiques Roadshow. The show also lampooned local political figures, including Dave Munson and Vernon Brown.

The Caribou Show was written and directed by the show's creator, Todd Magnuson. Much of the show was actually shot in Todd Magnuson's home. The cast included Terri Lawrenz, John Barnes, Chuck Brennan, Amanda Bumann, Dan Eisenhauer, Todd Magnuson, Bart Naasz, T-Roy Nelson, Scott Pearson, and Brian "Ring a Ding" Dingler. Model Terri Lawrenz is the most recent addition to the cast. The show is owned and copyrighted by Caribou Productions.

The Caribou Show was seen locally, and skits were updated on its website. Later, the show planned to expand to other markets.

The program's nearly seven-year run ended with broadcast of the last episode on October 27, 2007. The show's successor was a spin-off from Caribou Productions called Out and About with Terri and Todd. This new program, based on the T n T segments from the Caribou Show, was broadcast on Saturdays at 10:00pm on KCPO-LP. In 2008, Todd Magnuson and Terri Lawrenz started a high-definition educational programs called Nature Adventures, which appears on locally in South Dakota on South Dakota Public Broadcasting, and nationally on Livewell Network, GetTV, and FamilyNet.

Cast appearances on other networks[]

Lawrenz has appeared on the Food Network as well as The Apprentice 6, Magnuson on the hay-oriented , and Eisenhauer on The 700 Club.

Movie projects[]

In 2005, the people from Caribou Productions completed work on their first film, It's Really Something. The movie is a spoof of the 1969 film, It's Alive. The premise of the 2005 remake is that a crazed South Dakota farmer's pet dinosaur feeds on tourists. The film will be distributed on DVD worldwide by Troma Entertainment.

Caribou Productions finished production of their second feature film Lost Valley of Cavemen the following year. This is an original, where campy scientists get lost in a valley of cavemen and dinosaurs. The premiere date was September 29, 2006. "Deery", the comedic television show about a deer who fights crime, is scheduled to premiere on Adult Swim once more episodes are finished.
