"The Onion" TV Show Coming To IFC

DToTheJ

DToTheJ

One of the new series on IFC's schedule is a new series based on the popular fake newspaper. It is slated to debut next winter.

"Inspired by the weekly newspaper and based on the web series of the same name, “Onion News Network” on IFC will be a weekly report of nonsensical news, hilarious headlines and over-the-top debates between the show’s news anchors and guests."

Full story and press release:

Just the mention makes me think it will be the funniest concept since the origional Weekend Update on SNL.

Jeff in Sa-ra-so-ta!
 
In a related story, Comedy Central will debut "The Onion Sports Network" next winter.

(Gee, I wonder which Wednesday night it will debut... ::) )

So, let's see: Onion News on IFC, Onion Sports on Comedy Central... now, all we need is Onion Weather - no, wait, The Weather Channel is actually doing a good job presenting that all by itself...
