Mea Culpa 100 limite
Several years ago, a group of unknown comedians created a television humor lab called 100 LIMITE. They exposed and sliced through everything they found ridiculous with the sharp blade of satire. Today, with the benefit of hindsight, they feel the need to confess. For four special episodes, André Robitaille, Jacques Chevalier, Pierre Brassard, Yvon Landry, Richard Z. Sirois, and Ghislain Taschereau reunite for one final MEA-CULPA 100 LIMITE. Will they truly ask for forgiveness?
