Greg Thomey portrayed Ernie Post, a caricature of a lifestyle program host. The show was conceived as a satire of "Martha Stewart Living", with up to six sketches per episode.
Rick Mercer Report Rick Mercer Report (or the Mercer Report, or RMR; formerly known as Rick Mercer's Monday Report or simply Monday Report) is a Canadian television comedy series which airs on CBC Television. Launched in 2004 and hosted by comedian Rick Mercer, the weekly half-hour show combines news parody, sketch comedy, visits to interesting places across Canada, and satirical editorials, often involving Canadian politics. The show's format is similar in some respects to satirical news shows like Mercer's prior series, "This Hour Has 22 Minutes", and to Jon Stewart's "The Daily Show" – however, the "Mercer Report"'s on-location segments are usually played relatively straight in comparison to those on the other shows, since participants are usually aware of Mercer's identity and purpose, showing similarity to Stephen Colbert's "The Colbert Report".
