Netflix announces new Patton Oswalt comedy special for October
Patton Oswalt has gone through a lot since he recorded his last Netflix special in 2016, including winning an Emmy for the special and a Grammy for the album version of it. More importantly, his wife, Michelle McNamara, died on the day before it was set to be released, and Oswalt has been fairly open about how devastating it was to lose her. Now, Oswalt has lined up another Netflix special, and it sounds like it’s going to be primarily about how he’s been using humor as a coping strategy.
