The show originally aired on short-lived Dana Carvey Show, of which Colbert and Carell were members of the cast. While the Dana Carvey Show only lasted seven episodes, Robert Smigel had a close relationship with Saturday Night Live and was able to transfer his cartoon to the show. Colbert also landed a short-lived writing gig with the show, and continued to provide the voice for Ace.
