Seeso was an over-the-top subscription streaming service owned by Comcast through NBCUniversal,[1][2] launched on January 7, 2016, and closed on November 8, 2017. It provided comedy content such as original and broadcast television shows.

History

On December 2, 2014, Evan Shapiro joined NBCUniversal as the Executive Vice President of the newly formed NBCUniversal Digital Enterprises division of NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment Group after his job at Pivot[3] to work on a digital project for the division.

On October 15, 2015, Seeso was officially announced with certain titles in its library.[4] On December 3, Seeso was launched in an open beta that lasted from December 3, 2015 to January 6, 2016.[5] Seeso was officially launched the day after.[6]

On September 30, 2016, Seeso announced its first event called the "Stand-Up Streaming Fest", in which a title of comedy content would become available within a week, bringing a total of 12 specials for 12 weeks.[7]

On May 3, 2017, Evan Shapiro announced his departure from the company. He was replaced by Maggie Suniewick, president of NBCU digital enterprises.[8]

On August 9, 2017, Seeso announced via its Facebook page that the service would be shutting down by the end of 2017.[9] On November 8, Seeso shut down its streaming service.[10]

Content

Seeso offered comedy shows, including Saturday Night Live, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Office (UK), Parks and Recreation, The Kids in the Hall, Fancy Boy, and Monty Python.
