Up Late NW is hosted by Emmy Award winning Northwest television personalities Pat Cashman and Chris Cashman, who are a father (Pat) and son (Chris) team.
Each weekly, half-hour episode is shot before a live studio audience at Fremont Studios in Seattle, Washington; and features pre-recorded digital sketch comedy shorts, live audience interactions, special celebrity guests, and performances by both Northwest stand-up comedians and musical guests. The content of the show is centered on the interests, inside jokes and culture of the Pacific Northwest communities, and regularly showcases local residents.
Guests have included: Jeff Probst, Joel McHale, Kenny Mayne, Danny Bonaduce, Roger Fisher, Shawn Kemp, Luke Willson, Taylor John Williams, Stephanie Ann Johnson, and many more.
It is often considered a successor to the Seattle-based productions of Almost Live! and The (206), mostly because of the involvement of Pat and Chris Cashman. Up Late NW is a production from production company, Artists think Tank, LLC. Pat Cashman and Chris Cashman are co-executive producers with showrunner B Anthony Nelson, and partners with Head of Production Christopher Sherlock and EVP Distribution/Associate Producer Ryan Craig.
Up Late NW is the highest rated original regional (non-news) program in America, and reaches audiences throughout Washington, Oregon, Northern Idaho and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Although Up Late NW can boast a number of business partnerships, the Presenting Sponsor of the series is the Northwest-based mutual insurance company PEMCO.
The slogan for Up Late NW is: The PNW Gets It.
