Exclusive: Epix comedy documentary series Unprotected Sets is moving from television to podcasting with a 12-episode audio series.
MGM and Audio Up, the podcasting company that the studio invested in earlier this year, will launch the series on August 5.
It is the latest MGM series to move into the podcast form after the company launched audio series based on its unscripted franchises including Lauren Lake’s Paternity Court and Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader.
The Unprotected Sets TV series ran for 12 episodes, launching in October 2018, on Epix. Exec produced by Wanda Sykes and Page Hurwitz, it featured rising comedians including Zainab Johnson, Mia Jackson, Becky Braunstein and Paris Sashay.
Epix President Michael Wright inherited the series when he took the network job and said he “loved it” but told Deadline last year that he wasn’t sure that a weekly comedy series works on Epix.

I've spent a good portion of today half convinced it was Thursday. I'm sure this happens to everyone now and again, the persistent feeling that it's a different day than it really is, but seeing as how I'm going out of town on Thursday and I haven't even finished packing yet this particular bit of cognitive dissonance is more confusing than usual and is causing me the occasional mild panic until I remember that it's not freaking Thursday and I maybe need some more coffee. This is similar to those times that I wake up from a dream where I slept through my alarm by hours only to realize that it's still dark out and I begin to wonder if my brain is driving me crazy and then I think "how can one's own brain drive them crazy?" and then I realize that my brain can totally tell I'm onto its plan.

I have a migraine today. I'd say something witty about that, but mostly all I can think about right now is that I'd like everybody to just be very very quiet and for the Excedrin to do a little more than just allow me to have basic levels of functioning back. Here's tonight's TV:
8:00pm: "Breakthrough with Tony Robbins" on NBC. Series premiere.
"Hell's Kitchen" on Fox
"Pretty Little Liars" on ABC Family
9:00pm: "America's Got Talent" on NBC
"Cupcake Wars" on Food Network
"Deadliest Catch" on Discovery. Sixth season finale.
"Gene Simmons Family Jewels" on A&E
"Hawthrone" on TNT
"I'm Pregnant And..." on Health. The addendum on this episode is "A Drug Dealer." Uplifting!
"It's Effin' Science" on G4
"Make It or Break It" on ABC Family
"Masterchef" on Fox. Series premiere. Somehow, Gordon Ramsay has a new show, only now with amateur chefs because they're...
