Hunter March is reacting to the news that his E! show Nightly Pop has been canceled by the cable network after four years. The television host found out that the late-night show was ending after undergoing spine surgery. “This surgery was really tough,” March said on Instagram Stories setting up his joke right out of surgery.
“One thing that kept me going was the idea that I’m getting better so that I can get back to my job and make people laugh on Nightly Pop ’cause that really means the world to me. ” In a second story, March delivered the punchline flawlessly adding, “Nevermind, just found out Nightly Pop was canceled. ” “The funniest part about Nightly Pop being canceled joke is that it was not a joke.
Those are the best jokes — when they are real and announced during your surgery,” he added. Related Story E!
