TV Squad's High Hopes for Aisha Tyler Talk Show
AOL’s TV Squad is excited about Aisha Tyler’s new syndicated deal for her own talk show, changing the comedy talk show wasteland of quality programming with a beautiful female at the helm.
ABC has given the green light for Aisha develop a pilot for a hybrid style talk show that incorporates sketch, stand-up and other variety comedy into a fully wired show that will communicate with their audience over the “Internet's series of complex tubes.”
A syndicated deal means the show could land just about anywhere on broadcast or cable television. But, as many people, including TV Squad believe, “Ms. Tyler is funny, witty, full of energy on stage, has plenty of experience in front of a camera as a host and an accomplished actress, and she sure is purdy to look at. Combine that with her tomboy love of all things geek and you've got a good chance of scoring the widest possible audience for a talk show from girls who love hearing disses on celebrity gossip to lonely geeks with carpal tunnel only in their thumbs.”She's also been down this road before, even if it was only for a week. Tyler was one of the final contenders for Craig Kilborn's vacated “Late Late Show.” But this time, we think she’s going to score!
