Richard Jeni hosts a 1992 episode of A&E’s Caroline’s Comedy Hour, corralling a lineup that jumps between standard club stand-up and musical acts. Jeni delivers his reliable, fast-paced observational material, anchoring a showcase of distinct stage personas. The Canadian trio Corky and the Juice Pigs handle the musical portion, while Matt Weinhold steers his set toward science fiction and pop culture.

The rest of the broadcast highlights the staples of the early nineties cable comedy boom. Steve McGrew works through relationship material from a divorced perspective, and Rick Corso leans into his New Jersey Italian roots. Rick Overton rounds out the bill with character work and impressions.
