Tally Hall's Internet Show (abbreviated: T.H.I.S.) is a ten part bi-weekly variety-show series by the band Tally Hall, which debuted on September 15, 2008. Each episode is ten minutes long and was posted on the band's official website tallyhall.com. The content includes skits, sock puppets, music videos, and pictures of bodily functions, as well as including one-off characters such as Ben, Sally and Peter.

With the release of the first episode in September 2008, it became clear that many music videos would be released within the Internet Show. "Good Day" was the first music video to be seen in episode one. Other music videos included "Welcome To Tally Hall", "Two Wuv", "The Whole World And You", "Greener", "Ruler Of Everything" and "Hidden In The Sand".

Around 2011, the entire series would be taken off of tallyhall.com due to rights issues with Atlantic Records, who funded the Internet Show. On February 15th, 2013 however, Tally Hall made the entire series available for viewing on Vimeo, along with a never-seen-before episode named South By Southwest 2007. This would imply they now own the rights to the series.
