Tosh.0 (pronounced "Tah-sh point oh") is an American television series hosted by comedian Daniel Tosh, who provides sarcastic commentary on not only various online video clips, but society, celebrities, and several other parts of popular culture.
History
Tosh.0 premiered on Comedy Central on June 4, 2009, starring Daniel Tosh. It focuses on internet viral video in the style of Web Soup. The first season proved a surprise hit, averaging over a million viewers per episode. Within 10 weeks of its premiere, Tosh.0 became the second most watched cable network show in its time slot among 18-34 year old males, a sought after advertising demographic.
The show was originally only scheduled for 10 episodes, but as its popularity increased, Comedy Central extended the first season to 16 episodes.
Comedy Central confirmed a second season consisting of 25 episodes.
Currently
Tosh.O has switched days and is currently aired on Wednesdays at 10:30. He films his shows the previous Thursdays, so many of his jokes, sketches, etc. are extremely outdated, seeing how the internet is always changing. While his show is filmed in front of a studio audience, he does many takes and is constantly screaming at audience members for "looking at him in a demeaning manner" or giving him the "look."
In season 2 he has switched from his normal attire. Last season in every episode he wore a hoodie. This season he has switched to the new/more hip "casual jacket." He never fails to mention his attire.
Some of his most popular sketches are "Is it Racist?" "Viewer Video Clip of the Week" "Web Redemption" and "Unanswered Questions."
