After an uproarious and Emmy-winning run of “John Mulaney Presents: Everybody’s in L.A.,” the comedian will soon be back with more. Mulroney announced this week that new episodes of his live talk show for Netflix, set to debut in March, will be titled, “Everybody’s Live in L.A. with John Mulaney.” Billed by the streamer as a “live variety talk show,” the series will air weekly for 12 consecutive installments. “We will be live globally with no delay. We will never be relevant. We will never be your source for news,” Mulaney joked at a media preview in Hollywood on Wednesday. “We will always be reckless. Netflix will always provide us with data that we will ignore.” “This is a really fun experiment. Not since Harry and Meghan has Netflix given more money to someone without a specific plan,” he added, referencing Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, who have a production deal with the streamer. “Everybody’s Live in L.A.” follows Mulaney’s six-episode “Everybody’s in L.A.” live talk show that was presented as part of the Netflix is a Joke festival last year. That project won a Primetime Emmy for outstanding picture editing for variety programming. Mulaney is no stranger to being a big Netflix draw. He has had three stand-up specials on the platform: 2015’s “The Comeback Kid,” 2018’s “Kid Gorgeous at Radio City” and “John Mulaney: Baby J” in 2018. The latter two earned Emmys for outstanding writing for a variety special.
Justin Baldoni’s legal team on Tuesday released footage from the set of “It Ends With Us,” the film at the center of his ongoing legal battle with co-star Blake Lively, that they say supports his claim that he acted with “respect and professionalism” toward the former “Gossip Girl” star, who has accused him of sexual harassment.
