Wisecrackin, a virtual livestreaming weekly comedy game show, is being developed into a pilot. Comedy manager Barry Katz is consulting on the project.

Angie McMahon, faculty member at The Second City and creator of the show said, "We have our 40th show on Friday March 5, 2021 at 8pm CST at Wisecrackin.com . As the show has changed and developed we are now looking for what the next steps will be."
