Along with the likes of Amy Schumer, Ali Wong, and Hannah Gadsby, Nikki Glaser has been one of comedy's golden girls for several years now. With her vulgar honesty and unapologetic love of all things sexual, Nikki — who's known as herself a "curious perv" — is understood for hilarious units about the realities of relationship and bedroom actions. So, it isn't unexpected that her 2016 Comedy Central talk show, Not Safe with Nikki Glaser, encompassed the similar topics.

"If there's a sex or relationship topic that would make a normal TV host blush, Nikki Glaser will tackle it with an enthusiasm as shameless as it is entertaining," Comedy Central's site states of the series. With ridiculous segments involving sex-related interviews with her parents (newsflash: her dad apparently has an above-average-sized bundle) and the "Single Person Bill of Rights," Nikki's bold sense of humor and bubbly, likable persona shined in Not Safe.

Premiering in February 2016, Not Safe With Nikki Glaser used to be at the start picked up for 10 episodes. In a pleasing turn of events, the collection' first and only season was once extended to 20 episodes, in step with Deadline. Given this, and the incontrovertible fact that it earned a Rotten Tomatoes rating of One hundred p.c (out of just seven opinions, on the other hand), it's a disgrace that Not Safe never saw a sophomore season. Gone too soon. So, why was once it canceled?

Why was late-night talk show 'Not Safe With Nikki Glaser' canceled?

Though Comedy Central made it recognized that it used to be excited about exploring other alternatives with Nikki, her smart and wonderfully sex-positive talk show did not achieve an target audience fairly like The Daily Show with Jon Stewart did from 1999 to 2015.

"While never a giant hit, the show was a low-key charmer that inspired enough confidence at Comedy Central for a double order of its initial 10-episode run," Kaitlin Fontana wrote for Vulture in 2016. This is about as a lot of a proof as we are going to get. Though rankings were not stellar, Nikki Glaser certainly is.

Nikki's reality show 'Welcome Home Nikki Glaser?' just lately premiered on E!

TV hasn't noticed the remaining of this blond humorous girl. Since Not Safe was canceled, the podcaster and roast queen launched her 2019 Netflix stand-up special Bangin' and appeared in The Comedy Central Roast of Alec Baldwin, which, too, premiered in 2019. In May 2022, she's right here to present us with a truth collection. Premiering the first two episodes on May 2, Welcome Home Nikki Glaser? follows the titular big name as she ditches her ultra-chic Hollywood lifestyles to transport back house to her place of birth of St. Louis, Mo. Why? A bit thing referred to as the COVID-19 pandemic changed her plans.

There, Nikki spends loads of time with her folks, Julie and E.J. Glaser, her adolescence BFF Kerstin Robertson, and her roommate, Andrew Collin. While she finds her footing in the familiar city, working extra onerous to ensure her occupation continues its upward trajectory, Nikki by accident rekindles a romance with her ex-boyfriend, Chris Convy. Is the nostalgia getting to her? Or is that this what destiny has in store for the comedian? We've observed Nikki get non-public in the previous, but this is a whole different degree of intimate.

"Who knows, maybe St. Louis is home now," she says in the series' trailer. You'll just have to watch and find out.

New episodes of Welcome Home Nikki Glaser? air on Sundays at 10 p.m. EST on E!
