Jason Stuart has won Best LGBTQ Comedian at the Worldwide Comedy Contest & Awards that were presented at The Comedy Chateau Sunday August 28th in North Hollywood, CA. Jason was nominated among the best of the best LGBTQ comedians including Margaret Cho, Billy Eichner, Judy Gold, Hannah Gadsby, Tig Notaro, Steven Roberts, Wanda Sykes, Bowen Yang & Gina Yashere. Stuart stated, "It's an honor to be included among so many funny & diverse comedians. So much has changed since I came out in 1993 which I am so grateful for. But there is still so much more to do, as bias is still among us". This comes on the heals of Jason’s Award winning performance as Best Actor In A Comedy for The Indie Series Award for his Amazon / Revry TV show SMOTHERED he co-created with Mitch Hara. "Smothered" is a fabulous must-see comedy series that brings much needed comedic relief with a 30-minute binge session of 7, 5-minute episodes of outrageous, irreverent & laugh out loud bliss. The series is about a longtime gay couple that cannot stand each other but can’t afford to get divorced. They decide to try & save their relationship by navigating their way through couple’s therapy. They're currently shooting season 2 with guest stars Amanda Bearse, Jai Rodriguez, Aida Rodriguez, Armand Fields, Jasper Cole & more. I talked to Jason & Mitch in 2020 about what they hope to accomplish with this hysterical comedy series & their spin on our LGBTQ issues in this exclusive audio interview.
