May 23, 2022 Andrew Buss Ricky Gervais, This Week In Comedy
This week in comedy: Ricky Gervais has a new Netflix special coming out. Titled Supernature, in this special Gervais “gives us his take on the rules of comedy, spoiling his cats and how super actual nature is in his second Netflix stand-up special.” P.S. Since we know you’re reading this Ricky, please RT.
Also this week, The Canadian fan-favorite series Letterkenny is getting a spin-off series! In Shoresy, “foul-mouthed, chirp-loving, mother-loving fan favorite character Shoresy joins the Sudbury Bulldogs of the Northern Ontario Senior Hockey Organization (aka the NOSHO) on a quest to never lose again.”
And finally, fresh off wrapping up another season of SNL, Michael Che is back on HBO Max with a second season of That Damn Michael Che. The trailer for the new season features a look at sketches and some of Che’s stand-up he inserts into the series. Plus, it features cameos from David Alan Grier, Tim Meadows, and yes, Colin Jost.
