I think he said NFY was basically over in an interview

I remember something about how S3 & S4 struggled a bit with finding people who didn't recognize what kind of show it was - he's not exactly a household name but the show's popularity sorta worked against it. plus it was apparently a very difficult show to film, because you couldn't go out of order and you just had so much footage

I'll miss it but I'm excited for whatever's next, hopefully it won't be as uncomfortable to watch

why deny him his strongest comedic asset?

more awkwardness, please

I imagine it was quite taxing to produce; intrigued to see what he has coming up.

it is so weird watching him try to act

Meet your new TV-comedy dream team: Nathan Fielder and the Safdie brothers. According to Deadline, the former Nathan for You star and Uncut Gems directors have a new TV project in the works at Showtime, and it sounds very promising. Titled The Curse, the half-hour comedy pilot is about “how an alleged curse disturbs the relationship of a newly married couple who star in Flipanthropy, their troubled HGTV show.” Fielder will star as the husband, while Benny Safdie will play the producer of the HGTV show. Fielder is credited with writing the pilot, while the Safdie brothers will direct and executive produce.

Starts tomorrow!

looks fascinating, definitely planning to watch (if i remember)

Finally, a show about New York, the quirky little city that could.

that looks awesome

Def. intriguing!

I'm gonna throw some money down for this because I have complete faith in Nathan's comedy instincts and he has yet to disappoint

psyched for this

I worked on this! It's a culmination of my friend John's ambition of 10+ years and is amazing. Can't wait for everyone to tune in.

Awesome, congratulations! Always looking for something good to watch with my wife.

wow, that's cool tomorrow! i'm definitely going to be checking it out

36 minutes remain

this absolutely delivers

Yes

also having just watched a second time....pretty sure that was actually Kyle maclachlan

for sure

his old shorts are still up on Vimeo:

New scaffolding episode is best-of-the-year tv

good show

yup

I know what I'm about to say is corny and a bit hyperbolic but it's been awhile since I've seen something like How To which makes me see the world around me in a new way, what a show

How To is wonderful and this i really don't mean this as self-promo but it is weird to encounter a piece of art that feels like a cousin to our own weird thing we made this year, an interactive "game"/film/hard-to-explain for yr phone: http://www.motto.io

like the same appropriation of unseasoned real-life footage, using storytelling as a way of projecting meaning, decency and sincerity onto it

probably no Red Hot Chilli Pipers content though right

looking forward to checking that out Sean

no Chi Peps but some donna summers!

*summer

zinoman agrees with me

my god, the end to this one.

Don't

the Mandela Effect

yeah this is so good. I dont want to consider it Nathan For You Jr or something, but its definitely a worthy successor
