While most millennial travelers know Hotels.com and Queer Eye’s Jonathan Van Ness individually, it’s time to think of them together with a 10-night comedy series, released on Netflix in November. Dubbed a “cheeky comedy series,” Van Ness explores his dreams of becoming a stand-up comedian, with a docuseries-style reality show to follow.

 

The 10-night tour kicked off in Brooklyn, New York, in early September and continued to spread the confidence and love Queer Eye has become known for through Van Ness’s, and his uplifting costars’, fun, empowering personalities.

 

Hotels.com followed the comedy tour to give audiences an inside look at the inner workings of stand-up comedy and the hilarious, yet lovable, television personality’s sassy brand. Expect cameras on the experience from beginning to end, including flights, hotel rooms, camera confessionals and trudging through the comedy world.

 

The four-episode comedy series will premier to 20 lucky fans who win the chance to attend a premier party screening with its Hotels.com rewards.

 

You may also remember Van Ness from his Emmy-nominated Funny or Die web series, Gay of Thrones, where he recapped HBO’s incredibly popular Game of Thrones episodes.
