Nathan For You is some of the most fantastic shit in recent memory, and I’ve been jonesing for Nathan Fielder to give us a follow-up since it ended. So, fuck dude, this rules.

Pitchfork:

In 2018, comedian Nathan Fielder announced the end of “Nathan for You,” his beloved docu-reality/comedy series on Comedy Central. Now, according to Variety, he has signed an overall deal with HBO. Under the deal, Fielder will write and direct an as-yet-untitled comedy pilot, in which he will also star. He will also executive produce the upcoming docu-series “How To…With John Wilson,” which Variety describes as “a half-hour, first person documentary series hosted by an anxious New Yorker (Wilson) who attempts to give everyday advice while dealing with his own personal issues.” Fielder tweeted, “New stuff coming” with a link to Variety’s report.
