Infomercials (TV specials)

Infomercials is an umbrella title for independent, quarter-hour television comedy specials airing on Adult Swim.

Most of the specials closely resemble & lampoon the format of infomercials, while others parody tropes in niche media such as closed-circuit hotel information channels, industrial films, sitcoms, outdated reality television formats, and public-access television.

A number of the titles have a purposeful standard definition look and framing, to match a dated aesthetic.

There is no title card or common identifier for the specials, and on some program guide listings, it can be confused with an actual segment of paid programming; if there is a description, it is sometimes blank, with no season or episode numbers.

It contains a long-form introduction sequence common to 1980s and 1990s TV shows, except with a seemingly endless cast that continues to be introduced for 11 minutes straight.
