SeeSo is an all-new streaming service, being offered by NBC, that focuses exclusively on comedic content to tickle your laugh buds. This service is designed to offer comedy content to you for the reasonable rate of just $4 a month. The best part? It's completely free of ads, so you can focus on laughing rather than watching undesirable ads.
Unsurprisingly, SeeSo will take full advantage of NBC's library of content including Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock. However, it will also be producing original content as well as some exclusive content such as Monty Python's Flying Circus and The Kids in the Hall.
