Groundlings Go Online (Finally)
April 23rd, 2008 by Alec McNayrPosted in Comedy, Online |According to Cynopsis, the famed improv and sketch comedy school in LA is finally going online. Their famous SNL-legend alumni wasting away in photos on their lobby wall no more, the always-hilarious main cast will deliver some well-done viral vids to Crackle. I hope the Sunday Company (and two friends in particular) are part of that opportunity as well.
“Look for characters such as Pee Wee Herman and Pat to come to a platform near you. Sony Pictures Television signed a deal with the famed LA-based improv troupe The Groundlings to create 50 original digital shorts over the next year, reports Variety, mining both past and newly created characters for one offs and series. The first few 3-5 minutes skits are due out this week on mobile and online via Sony’s Crackle.com and other outlets.”
