Plus: AT&T gives up on its...

What a joyous day it is! Why, don't you know? It's renewal day! Both NBC and ABC announced their 2021-2022 broadcast slates. You'll never guess which shows didn't make it. Maybe you will.

200 episodes later and Chad's still talking. How can he still be talking? What's he talking about? A stupid theory about why a streaming service pulled a move? Or maybe it's a TV acquisition? He's so predictable! You know who the MVP of this show is? Me: the description writer. All thanks goes to me. Plus: PARAMOUNT delays movies; JUSTICE LEAGUE screenwriter has some choice words; and SONY starts...

This episode IS NOT brought to you by San Pellegrino. In fact, they'd greatly appreciate it if we stop mentioning the San Pellegrino brand all together. C+ Comedy is not affiliated with San Pellegrino whatsoever. Nor Perrier. But wouldn't it be delightful if either San Pellegrino or Perrier gave us free drinks for life? Here's a couple of free tag lines. San Pellegrino: Ohh ahh these bubbles are g...

Our good friend Ellen DeGeneres is facing more trouble as her ratings fall. Don't worry; she'll be alright. She told us so.

Join Chad as he talks the new subscription price, what shows to expect, and all around what's coming to the strea...

This episode was recorded in front of nobody. Viewer discretion advised. Chad gets too detailed about his neighborhood. He talks about diversity. It's all textbook Const. What's Const?

WWE Network joins Peacock Peacock signups top 33 million YouTube on paying artists, transpare...

Plus: APPLE's newest podcast ventures could include paid aspects; SPOTIFY is paying f...

Look at all this news in the news! Why waste time writing a proper description when there’s so much to talk about? Also, who reads this anyway? Nosy people.
