BBC Three have today announced that they have commissioned Jason Lewis for a 30 minute new pilot after the success of his Sniggers With Attitude sketches on the BBC.

Through the pilot they will be able to enjoy the return of characters such as Nanny Discipline (the kick ass granny, as well as a host of new additions including David Cameron, Prince Harry and Dizzee Rascal.

Cheryl Taylor, Controller of BBC Comedy Commissioning, said: "Jason is an incredibly talented young comedian, who has so far starred alongside some comedy veterans as well as building up a loyal online fan base for his own work.

Making The Cut


Jason Lewis is featured in this month's edition of The Cut...


By Ronnie Grebenyuk

Here at The Cut we are inspired by the fierce Do It Yourself attitude of comedian and actor Jason Lewis, whose hard work and independent projects have been rewarded with his very own MTV show The Jason Lewis Experience, all at the tender age of 24. If you don’t already recognise him from cult spoof virals Too Many Weave and Black Boys then where have you been all these months? We command you go to youtube now! Well, after you’ve read this…

Sssssssshhhhhhhh......A small secret.....

Now I cannot say too much about this because its hush-hush at the moment, but whilst working on many BBC projects I have also found time to work with another terrestrial channel by the name of ITV.

Now…..All I can say is that I’m currently writing a project with my partner in crime Daniel Kaluuya for ITV. THAT’S ALL I CAN SAY FOR NOW! But there is more to tell so listen out……

Armstrong & Miller Show



Now Back to the BBC…..BBC One this time……again…….I’ve been luck enough to be cast in Season 3 of the Armstrong & Miller Show. Now young actors in the game PLEASE TAKE NOTE….its important we show range in this business, we cant always keep playing the same thing for example….the Hoody, the Bad Man.


We have to show we can do more, so being included on this show for me is a big deal. To know that 6 million people on average tune into this show every week makes me excited to be involved. I am part of the main cast so you will see my face many times throughout the series. I’ve included some pics for you to look at.


This is just the beginning people, I’m just getting started and good things are already happening. I encourage ANYONE who reads this to use me as an example if need be and CHASE YOUR DREAMS.

Two years ago I was working in retail part time whilst doing my own online sketches….It was a struggle but the hard work is finally beginning to pay off. Look out for my next post, as it will feature my new BBC Pilot Sketch Show.



Thanks for you’re continued support, walk with me……….

Jase.

What's the latest?


So I’m beginning to see a pattern arise here……BBC…..again…..this time a voice over for a show on their BBC Switch station. It was a lot of fun and I bumped into my stable mates Mr Rufus Hound and the very talented Paul Kaye (Dennis Pennis/Mike Strutter).

We all have the same agent so it was nice to see them and have a chat. Cant remember the name of the show I did the voice over for….POOR I know but its been a looooooong month. Jobs are on top of Jobs right now and I’m not complaining!

Dynamic duo Watson & Oliver


I received an offer, which was a pleasure to do, for a pilot sketch show for a dynamic female duo known as Watson & Oliver, who are being hailed as the new French & Saunders.


I also got to work with the lovely Director Juliet May again. We worked with each other before on the hit show Miranda for BBC2 last year.

I did three sketches for the Watson & Oliver pilot, which was a nice look for me.

Update from me :)

Hello people. Its been a while. But I’ve been VERY BUSY!

First of all, I shot my brand new BBC sketch show pilot which is coming out in May. We’ve been very lucky to have some good people involved such as:

Noel Clarke, Adulthood
Paul Whitehouse, Harry and Paul
David Schnieder, Alan Partridge
Daniel Kaluuya, Skins
Rufus Hound, Winner of Let Dance for Sport Relief
Adam Deacon, Adulthood
Ciara Janson, Hollyoaks

Just to name a few…..

And all of this was directed by the great Al Campbell, Director of Charlie Brookers Newswipe.

Do not ask me how the hell I managed to get TWO BAFTA award winners (Paul and Noel) onboard because I don’t know. All I can say is that someone up there likes me!!!!!! Without spoiling the surprise I’ll be playing a range of characters from Jay Z to Super Nanny aka Nanny Discipline.

Life Talkin' Trash Talkin'

In November 2009 Jason was cast in the short film Life Talkin' Trash Talkin' a real life story about NBA Basketball Player John Amaechi, the first openly gay NBA player, after coming out in his memoir Man in the Middle.

Jason stars in the lead role as John Amaemchi himself; an NBA player who enjoyed a professional career spanning over 8 years and notoriously turned down a $17 million contract offer from the LA Lakers, opting to remain with Orlando Magic for $600,000 per year.

Life Talkin' Trash Talkin' is directed by Student Academy Award nominee Sunny Midha (pictured).

Confessions of an Urban hoodie Part 2...

Happy new year everyone! Once again my marketing team have been pestering me to write this blog WHILST I’M TRYING TO WORK! Part of me wants to make them to wait…..But the team is full of women who’s needs must be fulfilled…..And I must…..ahem…..do my part… or at least give them a part….. ;)

I recently made an appearance on 2009 Most Annoying People….Now I was simply COMMENTING on them I wasn’t on the MOST ANNOYING LIST. If you missed the show check out both Part 1 & 2 on the BBC iplayer to see ya boy on fine form! That’s right I’m bringing light-skinned brothers back! (Well Obama did it first but I’m following through ok).

Pre-production for The Jason Lewis Experience BBC is fast approaching……So believe me when I tell you I’m gonna make sure it’s the BEST thing you’ve seen from me to date. I wanna tell you more about what else I have in store for you but I shall let it be a surprise…My actions will speak for me…..


Btw before I go I’ve noticed this boy pop group JLS recently cuz my lil sister likes them……They’re not exactly the most masculine of boy groups are they? And one of them looks like he’s covered in grease! You know the short one with the girly voice? Wait…. they’ve all got girly voices so I should be more specific. He the one who always looks like he’s soaking wet. Like he decided cocoa butter just won’t do the trick so he had to grab the Sunflower Cooking Oil in order to moisturize his face. Then there’s the other dude who can’t seem to close his eyes….he’s always got this surprised look on his face, ever noticed that he doesn’t blink? Like he’s surprised people are paying attention? Amazing! Ah well people are buying they’re music so congrats to JLS. And good luck…..(sigh).

I’m outta here….Bye for now.
