Sean's Show is a British television situation comedy, first broadcast on Channel 4 between 15 April 1992 and 29 December 1993. Stand-up comedian Sean Hughes co-wrote and starred as a fictionalised version of himself, aware that he is living in a sitcom.[1] The show's style drew heavily on It's Garry Shandling's Show (1986–90).[2][3][4]

It received a nomination for the 1992 British Comedy Award for Best Channel 4 Sitcom.
