While the news cycle make the perception of time distorted where two years ago might seem like a long, long, long time ago (JGLG premiered Oct. 2016), Jon Glaser Loves Gear’s 2nd season is finally just around the corner.

The guide to “gear” show/meta comedy made our annual year end list and we couldn’t wait to see how Jon’s obsession with gadgetry takes a dark toll on his personal life would play out in a second season. From the looks of the trailer, it seems like season 2 will not disappoint.

With a season 2 premiere date of January 9th on TruTV, this might be the first great thing in comedy in 2019.

Jon Glaser Loves Gear absolutely showcases Jon Glaser’s undying love of gear.

That being said, Glaser loves gear itself, but, it would appear, that he may not so much love the activities surrounding said gear.

You can see this underlying tension in action when Jon Glaser Loves Gear does an episode on hockey/Jon’s desperate need for validation in any way he can get it/his attempt to impress his son.

“Jon Glaser Loves Gear” Looks Pretty Damn Good in These Preview Clips

Jon Glaser Loves Gear is set to premiere next week on Wednesday, October 26th on TruTV. Leading up to now, the show has been shrouded in a bit of mystery, especially, for how layered it is.

Jon Glaser plays himself doing a show that reviews “gear” of all shapes and sizes and categories (bikes, tactical armor, socks, GoPro cameras, etc.). That’s one level of the show. Then, Jon also has to deal with the underlying universe in which the show operates. That includes a tense relationship with his wife, having an actress play his wife on his gear review show, having a somewhat sentient smart phone voiced by John Hodgman, etc. This kind of silly chaos is Glaser’s forte.

As all of these preview clips show, Glaser pulls this very meta premise off with flying colors and we think you should make a note now to watch the premiere Jon Glaser Loves Gear next week on October 26th.

Also, the theme song is extremely catchy and will undoubtedly get stuck in your head (in a good way).

We like where TruTV is going with this comedy thing.

Since they rebranded as a comedy network from playing Court TV a lot, TruTV has come a long way in, we think, the right direction. With Those Who Can’t from The Grawlix ready to come out next year, this latest announcement of their new series and pilot orders with people we think are really funny is even more exciting.

First off, Jamie Lee will be hosting 10 Things, a comedic countdown/breakdown of ‘out there’ topics. Then, Almost Genius will look into people that live up to the show’s title and will be hosted by April Richardson and Chris Fairbanks. On top of that, truOriginals: Inside Iconic Comedy will explore the story of the funniest films in the cinematic canon.

For pilots, they have Jon Glaser Loves Gear where the one and only Jon Glaser obsesses over outdoor gear and Naomi Ekperigin hosting Inside Caucasia where she dissects what white people like doing from the perspective of a black woman.

We can’t wait to see all of this soon.
