Seeso's Evan Shapiro
posted December 8, 2015 #
Given the business I'm in, I see a lot of new networks popping up all over the Internet. We power several of them! One of the more recent high-profile launches has been an all comedy network named SeeSo. It's powered by NBCUniversal and is entirely comedy focused. It brings together a ton of British TV shows (Monty Python, The Office), American shows (30 Rock, SNL), Standup specials and new original series - including one from UCB and one from Dan Harmon. Long story short, it's an interesting experiment.
This interview with Ben Shapiro (head of the project) is quite interesting as he explains the thinking behind the service and the implementation of always having video playing, utilizing a constantly playing queue instead of a singular Browse Forever and Watch experience that we've all become familiar with.
I welcome this future of TV and all the experiments that come with it.
