Netflix Orders Live Variety Talk Show From John Mulaney, Set for 2025

Netflix has given an order for a live variety talk show from John Mulaney, who will host, serve as co-showrunner, and executive produce.


You don't need to tell us just how eye-bleedingly talented John Mulaney is – we've been a big fan of the actor and comedian for years. With that said, even we were impressed with last May's John Mulaney Presents: Everybody's in L.A. (part of this year's Netflix is a Joke Fest) and how it took the concept of the talk show (morning, daytime, and late-night), deconstructed it, and then reassembled it into something that was truly engaging in a number of different ways. Well, it looks like Netflix was very impressed, indeed – giving an order for a live variety talk show to be up and running in 2025. Mulaney will not only host the show, but he will also serve as co-showrunner and executive producer (through his Multiple Camera Productions). Unfortunately, it looks like we'll have to wait a bit longer to learn more about the show's format and other details.

Following that, a man (Mulaney) receives a toy "Podcast Set" as his going-away present at work- a present that will pave the way for him to Joe Rogan-like, brain-numbing success:
