OK, we’re in 2021/a new month/a new week/just another day. It’s off to the races with all of that and, as such, we’d like to lift your spirits by reminding you one of the best live-streams to be born out of live comedy being forced to largely live online, Comedy Crossing, has another date set for Wed. Jan. 20th at 7PM PT/10PM ET.

Jenny Yang hosted the wild, wondrous, truly zany stand-up live-stream in the world of Animal Crossing all throughout 2020 and will do so again in 2021 (as live comedy is still pretty much going to be on pandemic hiatus for awhile). As always, the show accepts donations for very worthy causes and has gangbusters line-ups.

Go RSVP for tickets sooner rather than later here!

2020. Was it the year that comedy took a “little nap”? Was it a year where the effects of the pandemic will forever change the business dynamics and artistic direction of the art form of comedy? Were the latest seasons of Corporate and What We Do In The Shadows some of the year’s best TV?

As it’s the last week of 2020, TCB’s Jake Kroeger gets to the bottom of all these questions in a very special, year-end wrap-up episode of the TCB Field Report. He’s joined by one of the sharpest minds in comedy, veteran indie comedy producer Joel Mandelkorn to shout out their favorite/most sturdy/noticeable things in comedy in 2020 as well as what lies ahead for comedy in 2021 if the world hasn’t sunk into total mayhem at that point.

Shout outs to: What We Do In The Shadows, Corporate, How To With John Wilson, Baited with Ziwe, Eddie Pepitone: For the Masses, @aparnapkin, @danadonly, @saraschaefer1, Comedy Crossing, and Laurie Kilmartin.
