Bassprov is a two-person longform improvisational comedy show. The main characters, Donny Weaver (played by Mark Sutton) and Earl Hinkle (played by Joe Bill),[1] are middle-aged central Indiana blue-collar men who spend their free time fishing and talking about sports. The show begins with an audience suggestion of a current event and "something you can stick your fingers in." From there, a completely improvised dialogue is created while interconnecting events from the characters' lives and the suggestions, all while the two men fish.
