Going into Thanksgiving is going to be dicey this year. We’d say skip if you can.
Whether that’s possible or not, at least you’ll have a Michael Che stand-up special to look forward to.
Here’s the trailer for Michael Che Matters. It starts streaming on Netflix on November 25th.
Colin Quinn’s latest one man show has been made into another Netflix special that will be coming very soon. This time around, Brooklyn born-and-bred Quinn goes through how NYC came to be the diverse melting pot that it is.
The special is called The New York Story and it’s set to start streaming on Netflix Friday, November 18th.
Here’s a trailer that’ll give you a quick run through of the wide swath of ethnicities that Quinn covers.
So much crazy stuff has happened this election just in the past month that it seems crazy that the rest of it even happened.
You probably even forgot that Jason Selvig and Davram Stiefler starred in a faux documentary where they went along the election campaign trail as two “undecideds” and attempted to see what each campaign was about as well as prank the likes of Jeb Bush, Trump, Clinton, Rubio, Ben Carson, etc. Aasif Mandvi and Jena Friedman from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart are pushing them along the whole way in this crazy journey captured in Undecided: The Movie.
Along with Triumph the Insult Comic Dog’s election coverage, you might feel slightly less on edge leading up to November 8th with this doc. It’s available to stream now on Netflix.
You have both Netflix and Seeso, right?
Christopher Guest’s latest movie and more hijinks parodying Million Dollar Listing should make yet another good weekend, like almost every weekend these days, to binge watch TV. Stream Mascots on Netflix and Bajillion Dollar Properie$ on Seeso now.
Chris Rock Will Do Two Comedy Specials at Netflix for $40 Million
How often will Netflix be outspending HBO?
When it comes to Chris Rock comedy specials, it almost went without saying that HBO was the place that it would be.
That all changed today with Rock reportedly getting a $40 million deal for two comedy specials.
The times have indeed changed and Netflix not only is gaining in on HBO prestige with their increasing number of critically acclaimed and award winning series and specials, but it seems like they’ve got the money to keep this pace up.
This deal puts Rock on the Forbes list for top earning comedians for the next two years by the way.
Above all, we’re happy to hear that the latest stand-up from Chris Rock will be two new hours rather than just a host monologue or a couple of minutes as an awards show presenter.
This is another example that shows that Mike Birbiglia has one of the best independent business models in comedy that integrates live touring, books, comedy specials, movie adaptations, etc.
Over the last few years, Birbiglia has very successfully performed, adapted, and released My Girlfriend’s Boyfriend, Sleepwalk with Me and Don’t Think Twice in various platforms and media.
Birbiglia is now on to his latest comedy special, almost like clockwork, that will cap off the nationwide tour of “Thank God for Jokes. The special will start streaming on Netflix sometime next year.
For now, if you’re in Brooklyn/NYC, you can get tickets for the taping that’s happening on November 4th & 5th at the Brooklyn Academy of Music’s Harvey Theater.
Here’s a friendly reminder that the long awaited next film from the brilliant Christopher Guest, Mascots, is coming this Thursday, October 13th.
Any takers on this being their Halloween costume?
If you’ve dug Joshy, Digging For Fire, or Drinking Buddies, you might enjoy the new anthology series Easy as they’re all from the mind of Joe Swanberg.
The organic, improvisational, dramedy of Swanberg’s finds it way to Chicago with the likes of Marc Maron, Aya Cash, Kiersey Clemons, Malin Akerman, Orlando Bloom, and Kate Micucci in the cast.
You can see what Swanberg has up his sleeve in the trailer here, then look for the episodes to start streaming this week, Thursday, September 22nd on Netflix.
Well, Bill Nye will be in good hands, comedy wise.
First off, you should be happy that Bill Nye is going to have another show, Bill Nye Saves the World, in a dire 2016 where there are people who think the earth is flat, staunchly deny climate change, and are more skeptical of science than we’ve been in recent memory.
Secondly, you should be happy that there’s a designated head comedy writer for the show and that gig has been bestowed on the very funny and clever Mike Drucker. Drucker is a great stand-up and his written for such big cultural institutions as Nintendo and The Tonight Show.
Thirdly, you should be happy it’ll be on Netflix, so you can watch over and over when you want.
Arguably, the father of mockumentaries, Christopher Guest, has his latest film coming very soon to Netflix.
After covering the worlds of hair metal, dog shows, folk music, and more, Guest points his focus towards the world of mascots with his usual suspects of Fred Willard, Jennifer Coolidge, and Parker Posey as well as the delightful Zach Woods, Bob Balaban, Sarah Baker, Christopher O’Dowd, Jane Lynch, Ed Begley Jr., and more.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise, but this is one of the funniest trailers we’ve seen in awhile.
Look for Mascots to start streaming on October 13th on Netflix.
Colin Quinn, Reggie Watts, Michael Che, Dana Carvey, and More Are Getting Netflix Comedy Specials
Netflix has built up its comedy branding so well, especially when it comes to comedy specials, that they now almost deal exclusively in big names.
It’s great to see Quinn having one of his solo shows get turned into a special it’ll also be fascinating to see what Watts does with the freedom of a Netflix special given that his last hour was done live in Central Park.
Neal Brennan is taping a special for his special solo show 3 Mics for Netflix next month. RSVP for your free tickets here.
The rest of our listings for comedy shows/events as well as open mics and maps are embedded at www.thecomedybureau.com.
Boyish Girl Interrupted, I’m Gonna Die Alone (And I Feel Fine), and Neither Here Nor There are now available for the “listening-inclined”.
If you’re either the sort of person that prefers their stand-up with audio only or one that doesn’t have an HBO or Netflix account/password, you can now get to listen to three comedy specials from three of our favorite comedians making the rounds these days.
Tig Notaro’s Boyish Girl Interrupted, first premiered as an HBO special, is now on iTunes.
Jen Kirkman’s I’m Gonna Die Alone (And I Feel Fine), first premiered as a Netflix special, is also now available on iTunes.
Henry Phillips’ Neither Here Nor There is set to premiere as a comedy special on Vimeo On Demand on August 15th, but you can stream the audio version on Audible’s streaming service, Channels, if you’re an Audible member right now. On August 19th, the album version will be available digitally at iTunes and wherever else digital albums or sold.
So, get in on all of these, especially for the fact that you can now probably clock in three new hours of fine comedy while working.
Netflix Accidentally Mashes Aziz Ansari Comedy Special Subtitles With ‘Planet Earth’ Docu-Series
Did this “accidentally” happen or is someone at Netflix just having the right amount of fun making a feature length meme montage?
Here is just your friendly reminder that David Cross’ latest hour of stand-up (it’s been six years since that last happened) is now streaming on Netflix and perhaps you should go watch it before you get caught in the Rio Olympics.
This is another preview clip of David Cross: Making America Great Again just in case you’re not convinced and already on Netflix watching it.
This is just another great morsel from David Cross’ Making America Great Again special that will hopefully keep you satiated until it starts streaming on Netflix this Friday.
Just from this brief announcement video that reveals that the latest Christopher Guest movie Mascots will be streaming on Netflix starting October 13th, you can only imagine the wonderful bickering that Guest has captured in the world of mascots.
We can’t wait to see giant costumed individuals to get caddy.
Mitch Hurwitz Has Finished Recutting Season 4 of Arrested Development Into 22 Episodes
Two years ago, there was talk of Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz recutting season 4 of the show.
Turns out that Hurwitz has indeed finished that project, which happens to include new Ron Howard narration over 22 episodes that run 22 minutes long, a la a typical sitcom running time in contrast to the varying length of the original 15 episodes of season 4 that went over a half hour. There is no word on if or when these “2.0 version” episodes of season 4 might find their way to Netflix, but, with knowledge of their existence, they’re probably bound to come out before too long.
Netflix Renews The Lady Dynamite for Season 2
For such a form breaking series, you can only ponder what Mitch Hurwitz, Pam Brady, and Maria Bamford are going to cook up for season 2.
Also, for those waiting on new Arrested Development to even announce an official date of any kind, this should more than tide you over for a Hurwitz fix.
It’s been a long time coming, but it’s almost here.
That’s right, another David Cross stand-up special, Making America Great Again, is coming next month.
Here’s the trailer to prove it.
David Cross: Making America Great Again starts streaming on Friday, August 5th on Netflix.
The New Mystery Science Theater 3000 Finds Home at Netflix
Announced at Comic Con this weekend, MST3K is going to the streaming service giant, which might make up for that recent price hike.
If you love BoJack Horseman like we do, today should be a pretty good day for you.
For one, the entire 3rd season of Raphael Bob-Waksberg’s amazing animated dramedy is now streaming at Netflix. Also, announced today, BoJack Horseman is getting a fourth season.
So, whatever cliffhanger you’re left at when you inevitably binge watch the whole thing this weekend, take comfort that more of your favorite conflicted celebrity horse is coming.

Full list of nominees for 2016 Primetime Emmys are here.
Netflix Lands Chuck Lorre/David Javerbaum Pot Comedy Series ‘Disjointed’ Starring Kathy Bates
Multicam sitcom mogul Chuck Lorre (Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men, Dharma and Greg, Mom) plus the brilliant David Javerbaum of The Daily Show, An Act of God, and so much more, plus Kathy Bates plus a pot dispensary equals one of the more intriguing series pick-ups for this entire year.
So many worlds colliding here that we’re very curious to see what they’ll come up with and we don’t have any good guesses as to what it may indeed look like.
CW Series to Stream on Netflix Eight Days After Season Finales
