You may assume that the popularity of online video would go up over the summer. After all, during this time of year people have more time on their hands, with vacations from school and work. But according to new figures from Nielsen, the number of Americans watching online video, as well as the number of streams per viewer, is actually on the decline this summer. Except for the CollegeHumor network, which is up 23.2%!
CollegeHumor Media is dipping its toes in the pool of long-term weekly series, announcing the launches of Full Benefits, Hello My Name Is, and Very Mary-Kate, AllThingsD reported.
Full Benefits explores the ramifications when a “friend with benefits” is also a co-worker. In Hello My Name Is, a professional makeup artist applies prosthetics to cast member Josh Ruben. And Very Mary-Kate follows a former child star with billions of dollars, a 26-bedroom apartment, and a bodyguard.
CollegeHumor president of original content Sam Reich said, “The whole idea is to get people to start thinking of CollegeHumor less as a comedy show and more as a comedy network.”
