Carol Burnett’s Return to TV Will Be on Netflix and Feature Kids Dishing Out Life Advice

August 1, 2017
Uncategorized
a little help with carol burnett, carol burnett, comedy legend, teaser

Well, if you’re looking for a little less cynicism and any thread of innocence in this world that can truly be enjoyed by all ages (and not just in the way that film and TV executives try to guilt parents to see “family friendly” fare that they can’t enjoy), A Little Help with Carol Burnett might just be a prescription you’re looking for.

With Burnett’s presence (i.e. a comedy legend that has maintained being genuine and having a big heart), this show actually seems organic as opposed to viral videos that exploit the viral potential of having kids awkwardly dealing with the grown-up world. 

See for yourself in the teaser.

Look for A Little Help with Carol Burnett to start streaming next year on Netflix.

Keep in mind the second season is the final season of Vice Principals. 

Knowing Danny McBride and Jody Hill work, we have no doubt they’ll being going for broke (even more than they already have) with this series knowing that they don’t have to bring anyone back next year.

So, as a nod to all of that, here’s a teaser of what’s to come on Sunday, September 17th on HBO.

This summer, TV will have two comedies that center on the different events with different characters that take place in same hotel. 

HBO will have The Duplass Brothers’ Room 104 and TBS will have The Guest Book. Both look very intriguing in their own distinct ways and The Guest Book from Greg Garcia also has a pretty nice cast boasting Jenna Fischer, Michael Rapaport, Jaime Pressly, Lauren Lapkus, Michaela Watkins, and Margo Martindale.

See for yourself in the first teaser for The Guest Book, then catch the series premiere on Thursday, August 3rd on TBS.

It would seem anthology series have never been more popular than they are now and The Duplass Brothers are going to take their crack at it with Room 104 on HBO. 

The show, which seems to have some hints of Twin Peaks, is centered through one, supposedly average motel room following several different characters and their offbeat lives. Get a taste of it with this very first teaser.

Look for the premiere of Room 104 on Friday, July 28th at 11:30PM on HBO.

One of the more exciting things, for us (and hopefully for you), coming to TBS soon is the new eponymous TV series from The Dress Up Gang.

If you’re a long time fan, this teaser for the TBS series is the newest bit of Dress Up Gang that has been dropped in quite some time. If you’re new to them, please enjoy this little morsel that captures what they do pretty well.

In either case, it’s pretty swell to see TBS is continuing to put money down on their off-kilter brand of comedy.

The title “Friends From College” is oft used when trying to explain to people you know why you might be associating with some ne’er do wells. 

The upcoming Netflix series from Nick Stoller and Francesca Delbanco seems to hone in on this sentiment as you can see from these two teasers. Also, they’ve got a pretty stellar cast as previously mentioned that including a Fred Savage that loses control.

Look for Friends From College to start streaming on Friday, July 14th.

While the anthropomorphizing of animals isn’t anything new, it’s usually reserved for children’s tales. 

However, the last few years has brought plenty of great animated dramedy that tangle with more nuanced adult issues such as existential despair, complicated relationships, etc.

Phil Matarese and Mike Luciano’s Animals on HBO is one such show and the teaser for their second season looks like it’s promising more exquisite examining of the human condition in the absurd framework of animals both big and little.

Also, the voices of Emilia Clarke, Ice T, Jason Alexander, Kim Gordon, Big Sean, Dan Harmon, Killer Mike, Andy Richter, Mark Duplass, Judy Greer, Fred Armisen, and Jon Lovitz will be featured this season.

If you’re on board, mark your calendars for the season premiere on Friday March 17th at 11:30PM on HBO.

Watch this teaser for season 4 and you’ll hopefully find that you can still enjoy the insanity of the tech world.

While we won’t have an episode of Last Week Tonight commenting on the inauguration of Trump right after it happens, Oliver made a great teaser (some might say pretty, pretty good) to tide us over in the meantime.

While Adult Swim reaches a specific audiences, it’s kind of amazing to think that any actual guest that goes on The Eric Andre Show wouldn’t know what they’re in for.

Yet, this teaser for the latest season shows that is very much the case and that the same bombastic, absurdist comedy the show is known for will keep on rolling. 

Look for the season 4 premiere of The Eric Andre Show on Friday, August 5th at midnight on Adult Swim.

Whatever your feelings about Sex & The City are, you should probably let those go for the new HBO series Divorce that gives Sex & The City star Sarah Jessica Parker top billing once again.

We say that because the great Thomas Haden Church is also starring and the series happens to be created by the also great Sharon Horgan, who is the co-star and co-creator of the critical darling Catastrophe.

The prank show Ladylike is not only going to do hidden camera shenanigans, but do so in a way to balance out the sexes. Catcalling, being treated as crazy for being a woman, etc. are going to get flipped by Nicole Byer and a whole great team of comedians including Megan Gailey, Jade Catta-Preta, Blair Socci, and more.

You saw a bit of that in the first trailer, but there’s more in this latest teaser.

Turner did their Upfronts presentation today and unveiled a teaser for their new scripted series at TBS, People of Earth.

Here’s Your First Look at TBS’ Desert Island Comedy “Wrecked” Premiering June 14th

April 20, 2016
Uncategorized
premiere date, tbs, teaser, wrecked

Will it be a more absurd, funnier version of Lost? Perhaps a darker, but more comedic version of Lord of the Flies with more diverse adults? Maybe a comedy version of Alive set on a remote island? 

TBS’ new comedy Wrecked, which pits survivors of a plane crash to live on said remote island may be any one of those things as you can see from this great, mayhem-filled teaser.

It might be something else altogether (perhaps even better than those educated guesses), but we’ll all have to wait until the series premiere on Tuesday, June 14th at 10PM on TBS to find out.
