Supercool is a fictional drug used as a running joke in the second season of the Upright Citizen's Brigade television show on Comedy Central. The last episode of the second season of the show focused solely on the drug, interviewing recovering addicts, people involved in anti-supercool youth programs, and entertainers the Titté Brothers. Supercool is distributed in a colorful paper tube enclosing a dose made to look like Pixy Stix. Pure supercool is a white powder that resembles and tastes like refined cane sugar.

The episode was meant as satire reflecting the War on Drugs and further ridiculed the political initiative by mentioning that there is no law in the United States that forbids the use of supercool and yet the police enact drug busts similar to COPS. These shots often showed the police in a bad light as the busts were enacted on homes and people who the host admitted had nothing to do with the drug supercool. The final bust was on the UCB underground headquarters, where the four-person crew were camouflaged in the rock wall until one finally sneezed.

The episode also poked fun at drug users. Fictional superstars the Titté Brothers purchased an island for the sole purpose of making supercool "the most legal" despite their argumentative band manager, who they would ridicule by singing their national anthem "Gary is an idiot" to the melody of the Olympic Theme. A fashion model is seen in this episode defending her employer by stating she had her teeth rotted surgically independently and not in an attempt to glamorize drug use.
