National Commercial

Hallie on your telly! My Tracfone commercial has been running all over the place. “I got it!”

I stopped by the new Chris Gethard Show studios where we’ll be shooting our new show for the Fusion Network! There’s already a blow-up palm tree and a paper mache alligator head in my dressing room. Promising. Very promising.

Get ready for our debut on Fusion on Thursday May 28th!

UCB Comedy Radio

This was so fun. I sat down with real-life lovers Murf Meyer & Diana Kolsky for their super sexy/funny/weird podcast, Menage A Trois Radio. Hear us talk about the effect of gravity on nipples, the dreaded “pink sock”, and the best 80’s movie (Overboard, of course):

Fusion! Yes yes yes

Getting super, super excited about being able to call the Fusion network our home come the spring. For so many reasons, this network just seems incredibly, incredibly cool, and such a good fit for TCGS. This is just one of those reasons:

Goodbye, MNN!

Bittersweet! Last week TCGS’ final week at The Manhattan Neighborhood Network, before we make the jump the Fusion network in April. Fusion “engages and champions a young, diverse, and inclusive America with a unique mix of original reporting, lifestyle, and comedic content that is both smart and irreverent.” Sounds like the right fit to us 🙂

Lots of love and thanks to all the folks at MNN.

It’s IFC! It’s Netflix! It’s MTV2! Nope, nope, nope. I’m happy to say that everybody can stop making guesses as to what cable network has picked up The Chris Gethard Show. We were finally able to announce it on the show this week…. It’s FUSION! It’s a young network, and we think it’s going to be a really great home for us. I, for one, am really proud to be a part of their growing reputation for sharp, daring, & humorous programming. Reach The Atlantic’s article about it here:
