Super happy to announce this, and to have all these great shows and producers on board! 

nextnewblog:

Next New Networks launches shows and networks about twice a month.  In July, we launched a total of nine shows and our food network, Hungry Nation, especially swelled with talent this time around.

Next New Networks has been working with a growing roster of talented producer in our Next New Creators program and each of the shows launched in July and listed below are part of the program. 

As manager of the program, I’ll be introducing each new show and the producers here on the NNN blog twice a month. We’ll also be posting frequent NNC Stories highlighting episodes, milestones, and other successes from producers and shows working in the program.

To start it off, here’s a look back at the busy month we had in July.

July 2010 Show Launches:

Keep the Heat

Keep The Heat is a musical comedy show focusing on all aspects of pop culture and the entertainment industry. From pop music to top movies to popular celebrities, Alex Negrete (host) creates musical parodies and hilarious spoofs for everyone to enjoy. Ranked #159 in all of YouTube, Keep The Heat allows you to control the content by submitting challenges in the form of text comments. Negrete takes your challenges and he will turn them into pure amusement. 


Candy Slice Comedy

Candy Slice Comedy is a collective of lady writers, performers and crack-
up artists based in New York City. They met while honing their improv and sketch chops at NYC’s Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theatre and have been making beautiful comedy together ever since. While they first made their name with uber-current pop culture spoofs, spot-on celebrity impressions and geeky gangsta rap videos, they’ll do pretty much anything to make you laugh. Their first “viral” video, a behind-the-scenes send-up of Beyonce and Lady Gaga’s Videophone, has racked up nearly 3 million YouTube views, and the hits just keep on coming. If you want to hear them talk for hours without stopping, just ask them about unicorns. Or their moms.
