NEW YORK, NY - Cringe Humor Entertainment is pleased to announce that it is teaming up with comedian Bonnie McFarlane for a new web series covering the Who, What, When, Where, & Why of the comedy world. The W5 is a unique look into Bonnie’s world of stand up comedy, shot from her own perspective.

Each episode will include video footage shot by Bonnie at various comedy related events. From interviewing other comedians she works with, to covering special events she is a part of, Bonnie shares her vision of being a stand up comedian in each edition.

“If you are looking for in depth analysis on all things comedy than this isn’t it, but it’s still kinda funny,” Bonnie said.

Patrick Milligan, CEO, Cringe Humor Entertainment added: “Working with Bonnie is always pleasure, even though she’s a bit high maintenance. But hey, she’s been on HBO so she must be doing something right.”

The debut episode features exclusive coverage of the Storytellers with Lynn Shawcroft special set to air on Srius/XM Radio’s Raw Dog Comedy Channel this week. It features a glimpse into the legacy of Mitch Hedberg, including footage of never released material from the late comedian’s writing. Storytellers is set to air on Wednesday, May 25th at 5pm EST on Sirius/XM.

The W5 series kicks off Wednesday, May 25th, with the pilot episode, and will be featured on the online home of Cringe Humor cringehumor.net and w5comedy.com. You can get a sneak peak of the pilot episode here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1bPHjcb-O0

A veteran of the stand up comedy circuit for over 15 years, some of Bonnie McFarlane’s credits include her own HBO special, being a finalist on Last Comic Standing, and several appearances on Comedy Central, including her very own Comedy Central Presents special.
