Testees is a Canadian television series, created by Kenny Hotz (of Kenny vs. Spenny) and written and produced by Kenny Hotz and Derek Harvie (of The Tom Green Show). Testees originally aired on Thursdays at 10:30 PM EST on FX and ran from October 9, 2008, to December 18, 2008. and debuted on October 14, 2008, on Showcase in Canada. The show is filmed in Toronto and Hamilton, Ontario. Testees is now showing on FX in the UK, I.Sat in Brazil and Comedy Central in Germany, Austria and the Netherlands. After one season, Testees was not renewed by FX.
The series follows two friends (Steve Markle and Jeff Kassel) as they work as human test subjects at Testico, a product testing facility. Besides being an obvious play on testes – including the descended double "e" in its logo – the show's title plays up the vulnerability of test subjects, which is the source of much of the humour in the series.
Paradox Entertainment released the entire series on DVD in Region 1 (Canada only) on February 22, 2011.
On April 26, 2011, Entertainment One released the entire series on DVD in the US.
