As far as musical comedians that rose to visibility during the Internet era, it is difficult to find one more loved than Bo Burnham. More than just a guy who can make a fun, catchy tune, he has convinced himself as a great creative (not only if he is hilarious). Unfortunately one of his first creative aspirations in Hollywood after getting to the stars to YouTube, MTV exhibition title “Zach Stone is famous” It was a very short life, the premiere in 2013 and lasted only one season online.
The series focused on Zach Stone (Burnham), a young man who, after graduating from high school, decides to skip going to college and instead tries to become famous without any abilities, in any way the necessary means. Burnham, even though he was in the early 20th century at the time, not only ended the exhibition, but he also created it with Dan Lagana, in addition to being one of its main producers and writers. Talking Hollywood Reporter At that time, MTV’s representative had to say about cancellation:
“We are huge fans of Bo Burnham and the whole creative and talented team behind the” Zach Stone on “event is famous.” When we are concerned about many factors, we have ultimately decided not to move in the extra season of the series.
So what were these factors? The thing that was true then and is now true is that the networks depend on the ratings to justify the cost of a particular exhibition, and “Zach Stone is famous” was not a monster in any part of the imagination. The series was launched with only 650,000 viewers and when moving to several intervals, it saw the viewer decreased from there. Now loved exhibitions have been canceled with better classifications, Fox’s “Scream Queens” app has one example. When granted, the cable beam was often lower than it was in network exhibitions during the pre -season, but in the same way, MTV had no reason to have a risk of decreasing viewers during the second season.
Could Zach Stone become famous ever to return?
“Cancellation adds great poetry to the last episodes as Zach finds himself running out of money and possibly losing his beloved camera (and show) forever,” Burnham said in his letter to his fans at that time (through Cartoon). In addition, Burnham refused to comment on why the show could not find the audience, but he wanted to make it clear that he did not want to blame it to the intended audience of the series:
“I don’t think MTV’s audience is stupid. I don’t think young people are usually stupid or stupid or low. I love my generation. I do. I believe that” internet generation “… is very misunderstood and underestimated. What many older people reject when my generation pushes short attention.”
Eventually, Burnham succeeded in creating art that resonated with the audience. His 2021 Netflix-Specific “Inside” met almost universal thanks. He wrote too and guided the highly prestigious 2018 movie “eighth grade” for A24 and has selected as an actor in the films, including “funny people” and “promising young woman”.
More than a decade later, one can wonder: could a “Zach Stone” group ever happen? Burnham mentioned after cancellation Lisa Kudrow’s “Return “as a brilliant one -season show before HBO revived it later. He admitted that the show had died on MTV, but it may have the future elsewhere:
“” Zach Stone “forever? In MTV I think so. But after making a show program, I had thought/found that it could be a one -season show (like Lisa Kudrow’s” Rewack “)), so we made sure this season could independently be their own thing. But if the friends continue to look at the program and show it.
