The Chris Gethard Show is coming to Facebook. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Fusion will stream the talk show on Facebook Live.
Hosted by comedian Chris Gethard, the show features several segments, including games, public call-ins, and celebrity interviews.
Launching the show on Facebook Live will be new for Fusion, but not necessarily for The Chris Gethard Show. The variety series began as a live public access show in 2011 and currently, Fusion livestreams it on their website. Using Facebook Live will allow viewers to interact with the show by commenting and participating in polls as it streams.
From Gethard:
We’re so happy to take interactivity in our live shows to the next level. We’re always happy to take chances and push things further into the 21st century, and this technology gives us another chance to connect one-on-one with the fans who make our show great.”
The first Facebook Live episode of The Chris Gethard Show starts tonight at 8 P.M. ET. Lena Dunham and They Might Be Giants are the guests.
