Chelsea Handler To Not Renew Contract at E!

Chelsea Lately has had many a great comedian on, either as writer or panelist, including Greg Proops, Matt Braunger, TJ Miller, Fortune Fiemster, Jen Kirkman, Kurt Braunohler, Ryan Stout, and way more over the last several years during Chelsea Handler’s stint at E!.

However, Handler is looking to move her show elsewhere once her contract is up at E! around the end of this year, which might offer an expanded format (i.e. radio, etc.). Wherever she ends up moving, it will be a big move, especially as the only female late night host.

Amazon Picks Up ‘Mozart In The Jungle’ and ‘Transparent’ To Series, Renews Alpha House

From their latest crop of original pilots, Amazon picked up 6 new series, two of which are the comedies Mozart In The Jungle starring Gael Garcia Bernal and Jill Soloway’s Transparent.

On top of that, Amazon is bringing back one of their first comedy series in Alpha House from Garry Trudeau for a second season.

So, together, this means that Amazon is quietly building up their resume of original series, especially with regards to comedy, and might be getting to the level of Netflix.

Comedy Central Sets Up Cop Comedy Pilot From Happy Endings’ Caspe/Libman/Tarses

Procedural comedies seem to be the hot commodity at the moment, perhaps, thanks to Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s success just in its first season. There’s Tribeca from Steve Carell at TBS, Sober Companion with Nick Frost at Fox, and now a cop comedy pilot from the creator, writers, and producers of Happy Endings David Capse, Matthew and Daniel Libman, and Jamie Tarses.

For the overflow of hour long procedural dramas and their numerous spin offs, we’re liking this trend.
