Step into the quirky and absurd world of *Portlandia*, the hit sketch comedy series from creators and stars Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein. Set in a slightly exaggerated version of Portland, Oregon, the show lovingly satirizes the city's famously progressive and alternative culture. Through a series of hilarious skits, Armisen and Brownstein portray a huge cast of eccentric characters, from feminist bookstore owners Toni and Candace to a couple desperate to know the life story of the chicken they're about to order. The show cleverly pokes fun at obsessions with artisanal foods, indie music, and a lifestyle where every choice is a statement. The beloved IFC series has ended, but sign up for a reminder just in case it returns.
