Bo Burnham Releases 63 Minutes of ‘Inside’ Deleted Scenes

Bo Burnham released an extended video featuring deleted material from his 2021 Netflix special “Bo Burnham: Inside” on Monday evening.

The video, titled “THE INSIDE OUTTAKES,” comes in at nearly 63 minutes long, just 24 minutes shy of the 83-minute runtime of the original “Inside.” Burnham revisited the footage in April, beginning to edit together the extra footage into a cohesive video.

The comedian and singer-songwriter announced the debut as a surprise through Twitter, first teasing with a simple tweet that read “stand by…” before firing off a follow-up a few minutes later.

He wrote, “a year ago today, I released a special called inside. i’ve spent the last two months editing together material that i short for the special but didn’t end up using. it will be on my youtube channel in one hour. i hope you enjoy it.”

Burnham wrote, directed, shot, sound edited and cut together “Inside” by himself over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic inside his own residence. It was released on the streamer in May 2021 and enjoyed a one-weekend theatrical run. Burnham also released the music from the special in an album titled “Inside (The Songs),” which hit No. 1 on Billboard’s comedy albums chart and eventually climbed to No. 7 on the Top 200.

The special was met with a warm critical reception and went on to a successful awards run. At the third Creative Arts ceremony, Burnham took home Emmy statuettes in the categories of music direction, variety special directing and variety special writing awards.
