Bo Burnham releases unseen scenes from Netflix special Inside

Bo Burnham, a comedian, just published an extended video with deleted material from his comedy special "Inside." To commemorate the one-year anniversary of his award-winning Netflix special "Inside," he did so. This almost hour-long film, labeled "The Inside Outtakes," debuted on Burnham's YouTube channel Monday evening.

In April, Burnham returned to the footage and started editing the supplementary footage into a coherent piece. The comedian and singer-songwriter hinted at the release of this one-hour deleted part on Twitter. He tweeted "stand by..." before posting a follow-up a few minutes later.


"The Inside Outtakes" includes a combination of actual recordings from the special, brand-new songs and comedy not seen or heard earlier; and humor satirizing YouTube, the platform on which Burnham released the outtakes.

During the COVID-19 epidemic, he revealed that he had decided to release a previously unseen video from "Inside." As a result, he directed, filmed, sound edited, and cut all of the segments himself. Inside was launched in May of last year. The picture was a massive hit in theaters, running for a week. Burnham also shot a few comedy and song scenes at his home without an audience or crew.

An award-winning film
The special's music was also released on an album titled "Inside (The Songs)," which premiered at the top of Billboard's comedy albums chart. Now it is among the top 200. The record, however, was ruled ineligible for the Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album and instead competed for Best Compilation Soundtrack For Visual Media.

The special was well-received by critics and went on to win a slew of awards. Burnham won Emmys for the direction of music, variety-special directing, and variety-special writing at the third Creative Arts awards.

You can enjoy watching "The Inside Outtakes" on YouTube. The actual "Bo Burnham: Inside" special is available on Netflix.
