"The Underground" is a sketch comedy series produced by and starring Damon Wayans. It airs on Showtime. Wayans describes the show as "In Living Color" on steroids." [ [http://www.sho.com/site/announcements/060120underground.do Showtime Announcements & news - Official Site ] ] In fact the show features raunchy, sexist, and racist behavior, and as Wayans states in his opening monologue, "We decided to test the limits."

The description of the show information is "The future of comedy is here in Damon Wayan's hilarious and uninhibited comedy sketch show where no topic or taboo goes unturned." This mistakenly leaves the letter 's' off Wayans' name when giving it a possessive quality.

Some of the notable continuing sketches and characters in the show are:
*Protest Stripper
