Gordie’s Midday Gossip - Kevin Hart wants you!!

Kevin Hart is teaming up with Netflix for a new competition series to find the next big stand-up comedian. He’ll be joined by a group of comics, who will be announced at a later date. Netflix says the contestants will, quote, “face rigorous tests that mirror the real-life journey of a comedian, from brutal open mics to bombed sets and rewrites to the pressure of big-stage performances. “The competition will give viewers an unvarnished look at comedy’s darkest corners and brightest spotlights with challenges inspired by some of the comics’ actual career trajectories.” The show doesn’t have a title yet, but there will be eight episodes. It’s set to come out sometime next year.
