How do you get a show on Netflix?

How do you get a show on Netflix?

A stand-up comedy joint.

Do you... Everybody wants a show on netflix a stand-up comedy joint do you everybody everybody wants a show on Netflix but i would say why no no i'm just asking you because i'm saying like it's in getting that

right it's not it's not about getting it you can get on any platform but what's your what's your

reason right like what's your what's the reason for it so with this

younger generation of comedians you got to understand that the comedy special game and world is not

what it once was right everything changes there's there's obstacles and there's periods when you

think about there's a time where the HBO special was the biggest thing you can get? And when you look at the comedians that were fortunate and blessed enough to get an HBO special back in the day, it was the biggest thing ever for them. The HBO specials then changed and Comedy Central got into the face. Comedy Central gave out half hour specials and our specials. If you got a half hour special, our special

on Comedy Central, you would be in a rotation and you'll be seeing. It propels some careers.

Okay, wow, the world of special seems like it's growing. Now, Netflix came and Netflix gave a

different idea of what a comedy special should be. And the comedians that did specials on that platform, in the beginning, it was a lot. Some were seen, some weren't. But Netflix's identity was all based off of the foundation of stand-up comedy in the beginning. They were redefining the world of stand-up comedy. And then they started to get a whole bunch of other content, right? But then they said, fuck it, we're going to go out, we're going to get the biggest comedians,

we're going to get them to do specials, and we're going to make the special again. Not that they weren't. They said, we're going to make them special again. So they threw this money at them, and a bigger comedian said, fuck it, we're going to do it. So they got Chappelle, rock, myself, Louis C.K., Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes, Jerry Seinfeld, Ellen DeGeneres.

Like the biggest names of comedy went there and they started doing them.

But now everybody else started getting special.

So now the world of comedy specials, it's there, but they're not as special.

They're not as special because everyone isn't in demand.

That's not a bad thing.
