Ellen DeGeneres is going back to her roots.
On Tuesday’s season 16 premiere of her talk show, the comedian discussed filming her first stand-up special in 15 years. (Her last was 2003’s Here and Now on HBO.)
“I mentioned that I worked a lot over the summer,” she said. “What I did was I went back to stand-up. I didn’t do stand-up for 15 years and I decided … I just all of a sudden was like, I miss stand-up, I want to do it. So I made a deal with Netflix, and I was working on stand-up all summer.”
The special, titled Relatable and premiering Dec. 18, was taped in Seattle at Benaroya Hall during her eight-show run last month.
