Buzz is a Canadian comedy television series that airs on the Comedy Network. The show is hosted by Mista Mo (real name: Morgan Oliver Smith) and Daryn Jones. In 2001, the show won a Gemini Award in the "Best Writing in a Comedy or Variety Program or Series" category. The 2003 season saw them take the show to New York, London, Amsterdam and Frankfort. The show ended in 2005 after six seasons. Originally created in Toronto, the show found a place on the Comedy Network when The Tom Green Show left to MTV. The show uses sketch comedy, non-sequiturs and guerilla comedy. The two hosts, Daryn Jones, a geeky theatre major, and Mista Mo, an "almost real rapper" [1] often riff on the racial tensions between them.
