By now we all know that just because you’re a quote-unquote adult doesn’t mean you actually know what you’re doing. There are always lessons to be learned from your own experiences, from friends and experts, and, in the case of Hello! It’s Hobert, from a DJ and a talking clam.
Hello! It’s Hobert isn’t CAN TV’s usual fare. Thompson’s not sure how the folks who come to the channel to watch meetings with their alderman or religious programming will react to him singing about his prostate exam, but he worked to make the show as accessible as possible while hopefully introducing some of the best comedic talent in the city to a new audience. Thompson says watching the series’ eight episodes two years after production first began, is like looking at a comedy yearbook.
Thursdays at 8:30 PM on CAN TV19 and streaming on YouTube
