Stu Osborn Show

Stu Osborn Show

The Stu Osborn Show is a web viral video advertisement for Microsoft. It is made to look like a mockumentary of a fictional television interview show of the same name. It stars Michael Hitchcock as Stu Osborn, the awkward and somewhat disoriented "host" and Fred Willard as a failed businessman-turned-author who is Osborn's "guest." Much of the dialogue is improvised by the actors. The video is directed by Christopher Guest who is well known for being the creative force behind other mockumentaries like "Waiting for Guffman" and "Best In Show". Both Hitchcock and Willard are frequent performers in Guest's films.

Microsoft presents the video through its MSN Soapbox service.
