Mitchell & Webb Launch Global YouTube Comedy Hub

David Mitchell and Robert Webb, the acclaimed British comedy duo, have established an official global YouTube channel, marking a significant move for their careers and signaling industry trends. The @mitchellandwebbofficial channel is set to offer a definitive space for their work, combining beloved past sketches with new material. Initially, the channel will release multiple weekly installments from Channel 4's 'Mitchell and Webb Are Not Helping,' a series that gained traction as the broadcaster's most-watched new scripted comedy in six years. These sketches will be made accessible to international audiences, allowing for wider discovery of the pair's comedic output.

Beyond showcasing existing work, the channel plans to feature a forthcoming YouTube-exclusive series titled 'Mitchell & Webb Talk About Some Sketches in a Pretend Room.' In this new show, Mitchell and Webb will delve into the creation process of their recent sketches, offering insights into how concepts like 'Sweary Aussies' and 'Bad Therapist' came to fruition. This initiative is a collaboration between their company, That Mitchell & Webb Company, and Big Talk Studios, with support from WME Creator Labs for development and management, reflecting a growing trend of traditional media embracing YouTube platforms.
