Everything we know about the upcoming comedy The Charlie Puth Show

Charlie Puth is ready to become “a bigger artist” with his new TV show. The brand new trailer for The Charlie Puth Show has just been released and here’s everything we know about it.

The singer just tied the knot with his best friend Brooke Ashley Sansone and has now announced his own comedy series The Charlie Puth Show which will premiere on the Roku Channel. From the trailer, it’s clear that the show is completely unhinged, with a star-studded cast including Will Ferrell, Courteney Cox, John Legend, Wiz Khalifa, “Weird” Al Yankovic, Charlie’s best friend Mike, and many others.

The show is likely to be one of the first real acting gigs on the multi-talented musician’s resume. Aside from his MVs, Puth also previously starred in a short film with Sabrina Carpenter. That’s not how it worksin 2023.

What does the trailer reveal?

The trailer begins with Charlie’s co-workers informing him that he needs to get back into the “cultural zeitgeist” through a reality TV show. To keep things interesting, they suggest hiring more people. So he recruits Ruby, a Gen-Z assistant, and Corporate Natalie, an influencer, to be his mother. Many other artists such as Will Ferrell, Dorinda Medley, Courteney Cox, Wiz Khalifa and Law Roach join him on this hilarious journey.

Next, Puth and his musician friend John Legend try to make a jingle for the Roku Channel. And he’s also trying to set a national record. We then see Puth sitting with a group of teenagers asking him questions about who he toured with that they might like, and when he mentions Wiz Khalifa, Meghan Trainor and Shawn Mendes, one of them comments, “Shawn Mendes is the better version of you”.

The trailer also pays homage to Taylor Swift’s praise of Puth in her song “The Tortured Poets Department,” in which she sings, “We stated that Charlie Puth should be a greater artist.“Coming back to this, the trailer cheekily reminds us all that Charlie Puth WILL be a greater artist.

When and where can you watch The Charlie Puth Show?

Produced by showrunner Carrie Franklin, David Collins, Rob Eric, Renata Lombardo, Michael Williams, Charlie Puth, Ty Stiklorius and Mikaela Puth, the six-episode comedy show will debut October 4 on The Roku Channel.

The official synopsis of the show reads: “The Charlie Puth Show follows Charlie as he tries to scale the zeitgeist by going beyond pop star and becoming a multi-hyphenate talent after being told that just being a musician is no longer enough.

Featuring artists, comedians and icons from all corners of the pop matrix, the famous faces populating the show help Charlie navigate his heightened reality, where his career neurosis and musical perfectionism often get in the way of his peace and sanity ultimately parodying the zeitgeist that Charlie is trying to capture.”
