Comedy lovers, prick up your ears: Anthony Jeselnik's Comedy Central show The Jeselnik Offensive has been cancelled and will not return for a third season. No apparent motive was given for the show murder, but apparently ratings have been steadily declining, and SplitSider suggests that low numbers plus the occasional controversy was a bit too much for the network to endure.
That's too bad! Overall, I enjoyed this show—and while certain aspects were a touch too formulaic for my tastes—it was a great place to see comedians like John Mulaney, Nick Kroll, Kristen Schaal, and T.J. Miller really pushing the envelope. (It was also the show that reminded me that I don't like Eric Andre very much.) Some people don't really prefer Jeselnik's humor, but even when a joke doesn't hit, I appreciate how much thought and plotting goes into each one. Check out this monologue for a taste of what you may have missed, followed by a funny bit from "bear expert" T.J. Miller.
