My name is Frank Nicotero, and I'm a comedian and the host of a WILDLY popular short-form program on the Web – if I do say so myself – called Primetime in No Time on Yahoo! TV.  The show, otherwise known as PiNT ('cause who doesn’t enjoy a good booze reference) recaps the best watercooler moments from the previous night in all of three minutes.  See, I stay up late watching Jimmy Fallon attempt comedy and Spencer and Heidi attempt dramedy so that you can be the king or queen of morning kitchen conversation without going through the trouble of watching it all.

It’s been less than two years since we launched this show, so you can imagine my astonishment when we surpassed over 280 million streams and became the most watched show in the history of the internet.  As a longtime comedian and TV host, I was used to going it alone onstage and was content to continue doing so as the one and only host of the one and only original program on Yahoo! TV, but a partner in crime would be so much cooler!   Enter my fearless counterpart, Nikki Boyer, and Daytime in No Time on Yahoo! TV, a show recapping – you guessed it – the best moments of daytime TV.  Really, what is a conversation around the company coffee pot without all the daytime TV details to gossip about too?!  Nikki and I quickly ruled the roost over here at Yahoo! TV.  We got matching mugs and took all our lunch breaks together (ok, actually, we tape at different times, but we would if we could), and before we knew it, we learned our twosome would become a foursome.

The tribe had spoken; Yahoo! TV decided that you the viewers should get a say in the best moments of the week in television. What a great concept, huh?!
My newest friends, and hosts of the recently launched interactive show What’s So Funny? on Yahoo! TV, Shira Lazar and Mike Bachmann, debate the absolute funniest clips on TV from the day prior in a he said, she said format.

She of CBSNEWS.com, Reelz Channel and The Tomorrow Show with Mo Rocca fame, amongst many other hosting gigs, and he of ABC Family’s hit “Make it or Break it,” guest starring gigs on Gilmore Girls and Ugly Betty and my personal favorite - a writer for PiNT.  Monday through Friday these seasoned vets engage in friendly banter regarding the merits of the clip each has chosen from the previous day, but viewers get to make the ultimate decision by casting in votes.  Over the weekend, Shira and Mike reveal the winning clip from each night and present the “Top 5 Funniest Clips of the Week,” as selected by Yahoo! viewers.

It’s a great show, and I must say, I’m so proud to see the family growing. So “suit up,” enjoy the ride and welcome to the team, Shira and Mike, and just remember, I like my coffee with two sugars and creamJ  You know you love me.

xoxo,
Papa Frank Nicotero
