Welcome to TV Revivals: Reality Show edition! Over the course of the month of February, we’ve taken some time to discuss many of our favorite scripted TV properties we’d love to see come back at some point in the future. Today, we’re doing something a little different and touching base on five of the different […]
America's Got Talent, Dancing with the Stars, Emmys, Last Comic Standing, MasterChef Junior, So You Think You Can Dance, Survivor
We’ve covered well over a dozen categories in our 2016 Emmy preview, but today, we’re here to chronicle the very last category of the summer in Outstanding Reality Host. There are six names that we’ve included below that span the spectrum of the genre, whether it be live competition shows, pre-taped strategy games, or skill-based battles starring […]
Tonight, it all came to a close on “Last Comic Standing,” and while we didn’t get a Challenge Round or some of the other stuff that we’ve liked in the past this season, we were at least happy with the final five going in. Did we think all of them had a real chance of […]
Wednesday night is going to be a particularly significant night for NBC, and also for many comedy fans in general. It marks the finale of “Last Comic Standing,” and what is ultimately a chance to see whether or not Clayton English, Andy Erickson, Dominique, Ian Bagg, or Michael Palasack ends up being the season 9 champion. […]
Before we get into talking the comics that performed on “Last Comic Standing” last night, we do have to spend a moment discussing the DRASTIC format change from last year. Maybe it’s a budget or a time thing, since it certainly feels much more cost-effective to do a head-to-head round than a challenge round like […]
As we start to near the end of this round of “Last Comic Standing,” we do so with perspective now on the field of ten comics that have been assembled: They’re rather good. Sure, we did lose two comics we really like in Amy Miller and Shakir Standley, but we’re not going to quibble with […]
“Last Comic Standing” is making quick work now of some of the remaining comics, organizing its semifinal round in a way where a mob of them compete, and then only five go through. Remember all of that time you spent getting to know some of those performers the past month? You barely saw some of […]
Well, wouldn’t you know it? Something did come out of the development deal that Rod Man received for winning this past season of “Last Comic Standing.” We will be honest here in saying that after the past year went by without really hearing anything at all about the comic getting his own show, we assumed […]
We are now officially through with the invitational round of “Last Comic Standing,” and it feels like there is a single word that we would use at the moment to describe how we feel: Bittersweet. It is so hard to say goodbye to this round, since we’ve been introduced to some really great comics. However, […]
We’re now three episodes into “Last Comic Standing,” and we’re in a little bit of an interesting place with this show. From one vantage point, we have a pretty great crop of comedians now that the show has established itself again on NBC. We love Anthony Jeselnick as host, and Keenen Ivory Wayans is a solid, […]
