The Comedy Network celebrates the virtual world of instant fame (or shame) by dedicating an hour of primetime television…to the web! Premiering Thursday, June 3 at 10 p.m ET/PT, Tosh.0 returns with more mockable online wonders. Then, at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT The Comedy Network premieres new original series, UPLOAD YOURS, compiled from submissions to the network’s user-generated website of the same name. UPLOAD YOURS gives viewers a healthy dose of raw Canadian comedic talent, uncut and uncensored. These two shows about the web can also be caught on the web on-demand, at thecomedynetwork.ca.
Daniel Tosh returns with 16 new episodes of TOSH.0, the weekly, topical hit series that exposes and skewers the endless array of ridiculousness on the Internet. In the premiere episode, the fan-favourite "Web Redemption" segment features the Lightning Bolt Larper (aka Brendon Boucher). Boucher, famous for casting his lightning bolt spell on the Internet, is brought to Los Angeles to recreate his famous larping video on Tosh.0, accentuated with special effects.
Following TOSH.0, The Comedy Network's new original series, UPLOAD YOURS shines a spotlight on videos uploaded to The Comedy Network’s user-generated comedy site uly.thecomedynetwork.ca. Since its launch last year, more than 1,200 videos have been uploaded by funny people across Canada. The Comedy Network has pulled the most “unique” of these videos and thrust them into the broadcast spotlight for the entire country to laugh at, or share-an-awkwardly-long-uncomfortable-silence-with-friends-or-family-members-before-being-excused-to-go-to-the-bathroom-moment.
To kick-start the premiere of these two digital-focused darlings, The Comedy Network is celebrating online comedy (both intentional and unintentional) with a live comedy event at Toronto’s Rivoli at 332 Queen St. W., June 1. Additional details on this event are to be announced.
