Exclusive: Comedy Central Gets Into “Cancel Culture” Conversation In Tonight’s “Fairview”

Posted on by

Comedy Central’s Fairview is getting into “cancel culture” tonight. More specifically, whether or not an artist’s content is subject to “cancellation” if that artist is part of unsubstantiated accusations. Contemporary examples include Marilyn Manson, Kanye West, and others, though in Kanye’s case at least he got free tickets for the Super Bowl.

In any event, here’s a full preview with an exclusive clip for tonight’s episode that features “Sammy Sugar” who was just canceled. Check it out below with an episode synopsis:

Fairview doesn’t cancel their anthem “Baby Let’s Rock” even though its musician Sammy Sugar faces harrowing accusations. Meanwhile, Breckman becomes a magician in hopes he’ll be considered too talented to cancel.
