YouTube™ and comedian Damon Wayans have announced the debut of Wayans' official "WayOutTV" channel on YouTube. The new "WayOutTV" channel (www.youtube.com/wayouttv) will serve as a creative haven for up-and-coming writers, directors, producers, actors and musical talent by showcasing the funniest sketch videos Wayans has to offer and allowing undiscovered talent and fans to respond directly.
"We are eager to bring our funniest comedy to the YouTube community and watch how they react -- it's like 'In Living Color 2.0,'" said Damon Wayans, creator of WayOutTV. "For too long, comedy has been a one way dialogue, with comedians talking to an audience rather than with an audience. My entire goal is to make people laugh and at the same time find a way to be creative and collaborative with people who want to be a part of the process."
"We're excited to work with talented, original content creators like Damon Wayans for WayOutTV who not only see YouTube as a great way to connect with new audiences worldwide but are truly committed to providing a consistent experience for the YouTube community," said Jordan Hoffner, head of premium content partnerships for YouTube. "With his new YouTube channel, Damon has an opportunity to retain full ownership of his material while building a loyal subscriber base of fans who will tune in regularly to see, share, rate and comment on his latest sketch."
WayOutTV channel will showcase fresh sketch comedy videos produced by Damon Wayans featuring aspiring young comedians handpicked by the "In Living Color" star and sketch veteran.
Wayans will also serve as the guest editor of the YouTube home page on Saturday, February 16 at 12:00PT, which means he handpicked all of the featured videos on display. The WayOutTV channel can be found at HERE.
