YRU-Up is a live, late-night Educational-access television cable TV show that is broadcast on BEC-TV ( Bloomington Educational Cable Television) in Bloomington, Minnesota. It features live callers and pre-taped sketches. Billing itself as "Bloomington's Favorite Live-Late-Night-Call-In Show", YRU-Up was started in 1991 by Bloomington Kennedy High School student Andrew Starks and BEC-TV Director Tom Ringdal. People who have gotten their start working for the show and have continued in the television, movie, and entertainment industries include award-winning animators & composers, Hollywood actors, standup comedians, television hardware and software executives, and Hollywood writers, including the team who writes the National Lampoon " Dorm Daze" movies and the animated series Golan the Insatiable ( Patrick Casey and Worm Miller). Produced at Bloomington Educational Cable Television, the show airs every Saturday morning (late night Friday) from 12:30 AM to 2:00 AM. The show can also be seen streaming live on the web at www.tbc14.org. The show seems to be the second longest running live late-night comedy show on television. The longest is Saturday Night Live, and since SNL takes summers off - and YRU-Up never reruns programs - YRU-Up has passed Saturday Night Live in total number of live shows over the years.
