Synopsis

Tracey Ullman brings her signature brand of spot-on impersonation and comic timing to Tracey Ullman's State of the Union, a new sketch comedy series that takes a satirical look at a day in the life of America.

The show features a kaleidoscope of original characters and impersonations in a wide collection of irreverent and hilarious skits that range from sardonic parody and social satire to Bollywood musicals.

The series is a snapshot of modern day America as seen through the brilliant comedic mind of Tracey Ullman.

Tracey tackles the country's celebrity-obsessed, 24-hour news culture by portraying a variety of characters from celebrities such as Cameron Diaz, Renée Zellweger, Dina Lohan, Tony Sirico and David Beckham to politicians and pundits like Nancy Pelosi and Arianna Huffington.

Additionally, Ullman has created a new line-up of original characters that reflect a cross-section of American society from an Indian pharmacist to a homeless woman without health insurance to a soldier on temporary leave from Iraq.
