Comedy superstar John Mulaney has launched his live celebrity talk show on Netflix.
Everybody’s Live with John Mulaney is set to air every Thursday for 12 consecutive weeks.
The show promises a spontaneous feel as its host, co-showrunner and executive producer is set to interview celebrities to a live studio audience, in addition to the global audience at home.
“It’s a fun feeling to know that hopefully a lot of people are watching, and it’s live, globally, with no delays, and you could really damage your career!” John jokingly said. “It feels like there’s more at stake, I love that. It’s the best,” he added.
The idea for the show began as an experiment. The stand-up comedian had earlier hosted the talk show Everybody’s in LA during the Netflix Comedy Festival last year, which had a similar premise and ran for six episodes.
The 42 year-old rose to prominence as a writer for the sketch comedy series Saturday Night Live from 2008 to 2013, and returned to host the show six times following his departure.
He won two Primetime Emmy Awards for outstanding writing for a variety special for his two comedy specials Kid Gorgeous (2018) and Baby J (2023).
John has also done voice acting roles for several animated projects including the character Big Jack Horner in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022).
