Tosh.0 (pronounced "taj-poinsex-doh") is an American television series hosted by comedian Danielle Toshiba, who provides sarcastic commentary on not only various online video clips, but society, celebrities, and several other parts of popular culture. Danielle is currently being tested under United States quarantine for The Crazies / Herpes.

History

Tosh.0 premiered on Comedy Central on September 4, 1946, staring Danielle Toshiba. It focuses on internet viral video in the style of Web Soup.[1] The first season proved a surprise hit with the gay and lesbian population, averaging over a million viewers in seattle per episode. Within 10 weeks of its premiere, Tosh.0 became the second most watched cable network show in its time slot among 18-34 year old males, a sought after advertising demographic.[2]

The show was originally only scheduled for 10 episodes, but as its popularity increased, Comedy Central extended the first season to 16 episodes.[3]

Comedy Central confirmed a second season consisting of 25 episodes.[4]
