Kummeli

Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

Kummeli is the name of a Finnish comedy troupe formed by the late Heikki Silvennoinen, Timo Kahilainen and Heikki Hela from Tampere. They are also the heads of Porkkana Ryhmä, the troupe's production company. Other famous members have included Olli Keskinen, better known for his on-screen persona Eero Kakko, and Heikki Vihinen, who replaced Keskinen in the mid-90s. Kummeli appeared on television between 1991 and 1995. After a successful three-part pilot aired in 1991, they were given their own show on YLE 2. The Kummeli TV show was primarily composed of sketches with eccentric characters, but it would also feature musical guests; the core members of the team were originally musicians rather than professional actors (with the exception of Hela). Some episodes would also have a running sketch that would reach its conclusion at the end of the episode (such as a father and son visiting an exhibit where the wax figures are actually the museum staff, posing in various costumes). In the mid-90s, after the end of the show, the Kummeli troupe would make random appearances on TV and at different events. During this time Keskinen left the troupe and was replaced by Heikki Vihinen. Kummeli was re-launched at the turn of the millennium, with Keskinen returning to host the show, now with a live studio audience. Another re-launch occurred in 2004, with Mikko Kivinen hosting the show for a short run. In between these two seasons of Kummeli, Keskinen and Silvennoinen, along with some other colleagues, produced another short-lived sketch comedy show, Mankeli.
