Michelle Maryk welcomes you to one more Upfront, for the little-known WLC network, at The PIT

Are you still trying to make sense of this week's fall TV Upfront presentations by the broadcast and cable networks for media and advertisers? Well, allow me to blow your mind with one more. Actually, allow comedian/actress Michelle Maryk to blow your minds with her show, Upfronts, at The PIT.

Maryk plays Tater Simkins, head of programming for the WLC network, as well as the star or co-star of five different shows for WLC. It plays off of the ridiculousness of the real network Upfronts, with fake clips for the fake new shows, preceded and followed by appearances by the fake stars. Here's a clip from one of these programs, called Blind Rx. It features Maryk, Amy Landecker and Matt Ballard, as well as sexually suggestive themes (women kissing women! swimsuits! other things!). Roll it.

You can catch Upfronts on May 22 or June 10 at The PIT in NYC.
