The Big Pitch with Jimmy Carr is a brand new comedy podcast where each week a different celebrity guest pitches an idea for a film based on one of the SUPER niche sub-genres on Netflix. From ‘Steamy Crime Movies from the 1970s’ to ‘Australian Dysfunctional Family Comedies Starring A Strong Female Lead’, our celebrity guests will pitch their wacky plot, their dream cast, the marketing stunts, and everything in between. By the end of every episode, Jimmy Carr, Comedian by night / “Netflix Executive” by day, will decide whether the pitch is greenlit or condemned to development hell!
Where does Nick Mohammed’s mind go when asked to make an ‘Everybody’s Home For The Holidays’ film? What’s the narrative arc for Romesh Ranganathan’s ‘BRB Crying’ tearjerker? What on earth would Michelle Wolf’s ‘Coming of Age animal tale’ look like? Find out on The Big Pitch. Listen on all podcast platforms and watch on the Netflix is a Joke YouTube Channel.
New episodes every other Wednesday starting May 28th!

London Hughes Pitches a Gender Bending Doppelganger Drama!
This week, London Hughes joins Jimmy Carr, and her subgenre is… Teen Supernatural Drama.
Maybe our most combative episode yet? London comes into Jimmy’s office to pitch a strictly caucasian film. Along the way, they argue about ghosts, doppelgangers, Jimmy being a ‘spicy white’ and why black people never go camping. And Florence Pugh. It’s a very funny episode. Enjoy!
