Today's Question comes from Emily B who asks
""Which are your favourite ""Kicking the 4th Wall"" eps?
-- Mine: so so many Boston Legal episodes, but of course when Carl Sacks says:
""The only show on TV with starring roles over 50 is Bo--.""
Carl points at the camera.
""Well, I can't say the rest...it'll break that wall.""
And epsiode 200 of Stargate SG1 jumped around there too...."
For those that have not heard the term before here is the Wiki definition.
"Speaking directly to, or otherwise acknowledging, the audience through the camera, in a film, play or television program, is referred to as "breaking the fourth wall.""
Emily provides a great example and one that I enjoyed a lot. Boston Legal especially in it's final season managed to do this a lot and was generally used to poke fun at ABC who decided to cancel it.
I believe Supernatural recently did a an episode where they broke the 4th wall as well but I've not seen it yet so hopefully Supernatural fans can let us know in the comments how that went.
Another show that I enjoy is Family Guy and they are always doing this :)
So what about you, what TV Shows have broke the "4th Wall" and which ones did you enjoy.
Sound off in the comments.
