The popular ‘Am I the A**hole?’ subreddit is being turned into its very own comedy series. Host Jimmy Carr is inviting the public on to discuss their situations and truly get to the bottom of who the offenders are.

If you’ve ever spent time perusing Reddit, there’s every chance you’ve gravitated towards one particular subreddit. Be it adorable animal clips or driving fails, everyone has their soft spot, and now, it turns out one such soft spot is getting a big glow-up.

The ‘Am I the A**hole?’ subreddit poses the obvious question. Reddit users provide anecdotes from their lives and question whether they were in the wrong or if someone else should be held accountable.

It’s a simple premise, and it’s proven wildly popular on Reddit, drawing just shy of 25 million subscribers to the subreddit. As a result, the often-hilarious write-ups are now getting a bigger stage, as a television gameshow is now in the works.

The concept of the show is to present scenarios similar to the Reddit write-ups, with members of the public stepping in front of the bright lights on TV.

British comedian and regular TV show host Jimmy Carr is set to lead the conversations, while a panel of various comedians will then ask probing questions, trying to figure out who the real a**hole really is.

“These questions will cover everything from jaw-dropping relationship disputes to the pettiest of family squabbles,” as Deadline reported.

The show is set to be filmed in Spring and air later in 2025, however, it’s set to be exclusive to Comedy Central UK upon release. There’s currently no indication of a wider release on international channels.

“There are an impressive number of a**holes in our country and they’re finally getting the recognition they deserve on national television,” Carr said of the concept.

If you’re interested in being on the show yourself, obviously you have to be located in the UK and over the age of 18, but you also need a rather compelling beef. You can register independently or as part of a duo.
