800 Pound Gorilla goes direct-to-fan with a comedy streamer

Gorilla Comedy+ brings 250-plus specials and a windowing strategy meant to boost value across YouTube, AVOD, and beyond.

A new streaming service is betting that comedy doesn’t need to be a category; it can be the whole platform. On May 5, comedy distribution company 800 Pound Gorilla Media will launch Gorilla Comedy+. The boutique streaming service will feature a 250-plus-title library of stand-up specials, including new sets from Patton Oswalt, Pete Holmes, Emmy Blotnick, Jourdain Fisher, and Nish Kumar, alongside the company’s existing catalog.
