Tosh.0 is an American television series hosted by comedian Daniel Tosh, who provides sarcastic commentary on online video clips, society, celebrities, and other parts of popular culture.
Tosh.0 premiered on Comedy Central on June 4, 2009, starring Daniel Tosh. It focuses on Internet viral videos, sharing a set-up similar to that 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 scheduled for only 10 episodes, but as its popularity increased, Comedy Central extended the first season to 16 episodes. On December 2009, it was announced that Comedy Central had renewed the show for a full second season, with 25 episodes. The second season was set to debut on January 13, 2010.
On April 8, 2010, Comedy Central confirmed that the show has been renewed for a third season. It began on January 11, 2011. In June 2010, the summer season premiere of the show was the #1 show on its timeslot among men within the ages of 18-24. With nearly 2 million viewers, the episode was the most-watched episode of the series. The record was short-lived, however, as the July 7 episode held the attention of 2.4 million viewers, and the July 28 episode attracted 2.7 million viewers, again winning the time slot and also being the most-watched show on television that day among men 18-24, 18-34 and 25-34. The July 28 episode was also the top cable show that night for adults 18-49.
Each episode begins with a cold open of a clip from an online video. Tosh makes humorous comments about the video, and proceeds to do so for a selection of other videos and/or pictures. During this time, for one video or picture, he sees how many comments he can "post" about it, acting as if he were commenting on a video sharing site such as YouTube, stating he gives himself "20 seconds". He noted, however, in the second season, that the "20 seconds" "ends when I run out of jokes". dead link] The last video in this section will go into a "Video Breakdown" segment, where Tosh discusses various elements of said video, pausing several times to comment.
Most episodes feature a "Web Redemption", where Tosh invites a person or group that has a video on the Internet to be on the show. Usually, the video features the person in an embarrassing situation. They are invited to explain their video, interact with Tosh, and recreate the video. During the recreation, the guests will try to place themselves in a more positive light. In one of the web redemptions, Tosh pretends to spend days trapped in an elevator with Nick White, whose 41 hours trapped in a New York elevator were chronicled by The New Yorker and posted on You Tube in 2008. Besides the Web Redemption, there has also been a "Web Reunion", in which a group that Tosh has enjoyed is invited to perform again for the show, a "Web Remix", in which a music artist is invited to remix a song they wrote, and a "Web Investigation", in which Tosh investigates a confusing video by interviewing the subject of the video. One episode had a "Web Retreat" where he went hiking with Paul Vasquez from the viral video Double Rainbow.
Other recurring segments include a segment "Is it Racist?", where Tosh invites people to vote on any racial stereotypes presented in a video. There is also a "Viewer Video of the Week", where viewers of the show can submit their own movies to be shown on the air. The rest of the content in an episode varies, whether it is a video presented by a celebrity guest, a random video that is presented as a weekly video despite it being the only one ("Topless Pogo Stunt of the Week", "Pedophile of the Week", etc.), or Tosh attempting to recreate a video.
