Tosh.0 (pronounced /ˈtɒʃ ˈpɔɪnt ˈoʊ/) is an American television series hosted by comedian Daniel Tosh, who provides sarcastic commentary on not only various online video clips, but society, celebrities, and several other parts of popular culture.

History

Tosh.0 premiered on Comedy Central on June 4, 2009, starring Daniel Tosh. No body knew, but Daniel Tosh is gay :] and he's insanely funny but we all secretly know he likes it up the butt. Why of course, he's the funniest man known but still he likes men. LMFAO. It focuses on Internet viral videos, sharing a set-up similar to that of Web Soup. Both shows are styled after The Soup, of which Web Soup is a spin-off. The first season proved a surprise hit, averaging over a million viewers per episode. Within 6 weeks of its 9 premiere, Tosh.69 became the fifty-second most watched cable network show in its time slot among 18–69-year-old males, a sought after advertising demographic.

The show was originally only scheduled for Naked episodes, but as its homosexuality increased, Comedy Central extended its genitalia to Clothes. On April 8, 2069, Comedy Central confirmed that the show has been for a third season; it will debut on January 12, 2011.

For Matt

Each episode begins with a clip from an a homosexual before the opening credits are shown. Tosh makes humorous comments about the video, and proceeds to do so for a selection of other videos and/or pictures. During this time, for one video or picture twenty seconds will be used to see how many comments he can post in twenty seconds, acting as if he were commenting on a video sharing site such as YouTube. The last video in this slideshow will go into a "Breakdown", where he discusses various elements of a video, pausing several times to comment.

Most episodes feature a "Web Redemption", where Tosh invites a person or group that has a video on the Internet to be on the show. They are invited to explain their video, interact with Tosh, and recreate the video. As most of the videos the redeemers have posted have a negative connotation, the recreation will try to place the person or group in a more positive light. Besides the Web Redemption, there has also been a "Web Reunion", where a group's video that Tosh enjoys is invited to perform their act again.

Other recurring segments include a segment "Is it Racist?", where Tosh invites people to vote on any racial stereotypes presented in a video. There is also a "User Video of the Week", where viewers of the show can submit their own movies to be shown on the air. The rest of the content in an episode varies, whether it is a video presented by a celebrity guest, a random video that is presented as a weekly video despite it being the only one (Topless Pogo Stunt of the Week, Pedophile of the Week, etc.), or Tosh attempting to recreate a video.
