skitcom

Sketch comedy TV show.
Derived by combining "skit" (another word for a comedy sketch) with "com" (the beginning of the word comedy).
Sometimes confused with sitcoms by people with no understanding of comedy or basic script structure.

Monty Python's Flying Circus, Saturday Night Live, All That, and Roundhouse are all skitcoms.

skitcom

A web series where the episodes are filmed/acted in a sitcom style, but usually revolve around one joke and are the same length as a skit.

Examples are Jake and Amir & CollegeHumor's "Hardly Working".

"Hey man, that latest CollegeHumor skitcom was sick! Dawg."
