Initially a live show at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in New York,[1] the show debuted on public-access channel Manhattan Neighborhood Network on June 22, 2011.[2] In 2015, it moved to the cable channel Fusion, where it ran for two seasons before moving to truTV in 2017.

The show moved to truTV for its third season, with 16 live hour-long episodes beginning in August 2017.[3] truTV later ordered an additional 10 episodes, bringing the third season total up to 26.[4] The new batch of episodes premiered on March 20, 2018.[5]
