Written by John Edward Betancourt Truly one of the biggest benefits of this era of peak television and streaming, are the variety of programs that come our way. Because the demand for content is there and that’s allowed for streamers to tap into genres and types of programming that were all but ignored back in the day. Such as stand-up comedy. For specials for that used to be regaled to comedy-centric networks and pay cable. But now they are popping up often on streamers now. Giving up and coming comics their big shot at showing their skills to the masses, while giving other well-known comics a chance to really cultivate the special they’ve always dreamed of or use one to tell the jokes they’ve always wanted to. Of course, it’s the audience that benefits because they get nothing but great laughs from the comfort of their homes, and well... the wonder of this is top of mind today, simply because another incredible comedy special is about to hit the digital airwaves and make history for a streamer in the process. For earlier today it was announced that Whitney Cummings’ new special, Mouthy, will be coming to OFTV on November 15, 2023. Allowing for Whitney to wow us once again with her brilliant comedy, while also giving OFTV… its first ever comedy special, and to properly pay respect to this important news, here are all the details regarding this incredible announcement, courtesy of OFTV. “MOUTHY” MARKS THE ONLYFANS STREAMING PLATFORM’S FIRST STAND-UP SPECIAL 'OnlyFans today announces that Whitney Cummings’ next stand-up special “MOUTHY” will be released as an OFTV original, premiering exclusively on the platform on November 15, 2023. Taped in front of a sold-out live audience at The Comedy Store in Los Angeles this September, the show will be Cummings’ sixth career special and the first stand-up comedy special for OFTV, OnlyFans’ free-to-view, safe-for-work streaming platform and app. MOUTHY comes on the heels of the successful OFTV original comedy series WHITNEY CUMMINGS PRESENTS, which Cummings created and executive produces. Since premiering in April 2023, the series has aired the roast of Bert Kreischer, as well as Whitney Cummings herself, with a star-studded lineup of comedians and celebrity guests including Tom Segura, Dan Levy, Ke$ha, Bob the Drag Queen, Trevor Wallace, Miranda Cosgrove, Robin Tran, and more. The premiere episode, WHITNEY CUMMINGS PRESENTS: The Roast of Bert Kreischer, remains the most watched episode of OFTV original content to date. “For my 6th special I really wanted to experience the same creative freedom that I feel when I perform in live venues and recreate that tension for the audience,” said Whitney Cummings. “Working with OFTV has been the closest experience to a live show that I can remember and they have been so supportive - especially as I made this special while 7 months pregnant! They understand that comedy fans are smart and understand nuance, and I knew they would be the perfect partner to create a special that I would typically only be brave enough to perform in a non-taped show.” Keily Blair, CEO of OnlyFans, added: “Following the success of The Roast of Bert Kresicher, we knew we had to collaborate with Whitney again. Her creativity as a comedian, and her desire to push boundaries in comedy, embody OnlyFans and OFTV’s aim to provide a space for creators to express themselves freely. This special is another example of our commitment to supporting the comedy community, to showcase their original work and grow their fanbase without unnecessary censorship.” OnlyFans, which exists to provide creators from all genres with a place to monetize their content, is home to a growing community of comedians. Further programming on OFTV includes its flagship comedy show LMAOF and Creative Fund: Comedy Edition. Both series aim to bring together and elevate up-and-coming comedians, helping them to grow their audience, and in the case of the Creative Fund, giving them the career-changing opportunity to win a cash prize. As well as comedy, viewers can tune into OFTV for content ranging from fitness to cooking, music, and more. This includes reality series House of Sims, which was recently announced to be taping its second season, dating series Miss/Match, and the athlete docuseries Rise & Grind.
