TV Series
Notes Satirical news program similar in concept to The Daily Show. A spinoff of another news spoof, This Hour Has 22 Minutes, which co-starred Mercer. In his own series, Mercer pokes fun at - and/or criticizes - news events of the day, primarily involving Canadian politics. Although technically a comedy, the show also includes travelogue-style segments as Mercer travels across Canada exploring little-known parts of the country, and also include serious moments such as supporting a campaign to raise money to purchase mosquito netting to prevent the spread of disease in Africa. The show (which, as it gained popularity, was retitled the Rick Mercer Report and is also widely known as simply Mercer Report) is best known for Mercer's "rant" segments - fast-paced editorials delivered in a single take while Mercer walks the alleyways of Toronto. Prior to the launch of its 15th season, Mercer announced he would be retiring The Mercer Report in April 2018. Images
