Welcome to STATEMEDIA.NET, a site designed to serve as an online media archive of THE STATE, quite possibly the greatest show ever made. Every State sketch that appeared on MTV is (or will be) available for download, as well as extras such as the Stella videos. To use this site, you must have Quicktime 6 and Real Video.

Reno 911, a new show starring Tom Lennon, Kerri Kenney and Ben Garant premieres July 23rd, at 10:30, right after an all new South Park. You will watch it!

Finally, at long last, the members of The State are working in conjunction with MTV Home Video to make the ultimate, REAL, DVD collection of The State. We going back to the original master tapes and loading it with great extras too, including commentary, interviews, unaired material, etc. Save your money! Stop buying bootlegs! We don't know when exactly this new DVD will be released, but the second we do it will be posted here, and on the stellacomedy.com mailing list.

Before their MTV series, The State wrote, produced and filmed segments for Jon Stewart’s show “You Wrote It, You Watch It” This one’s part of a “people on the street” series where they interviewed people and then edited it together with their own reenactments. Watch It!

Here's a brand new short movie that was shot this past week! Directed by David Wain, it stars Joe lo Truglio, Wain, Nina Hellman and Callie Thorne. Though shot this weekend, it was written by David Wain, Michael Ian Black and Kevin Allison back in The State days. Enjoy!
