In 2009, a late night talk called The Chris Gethard Show was born at UCB. In 2011 it became a cult sensation public access show. A few years after that it became a cable television show that had some legendary moments and legendarily bad ratings. In 2018 the whole thing came to an end. Until now. One night only, TCGS is back, helping to re-launch the theater where it all began fifteen shockingly long years ago.
