Slo Pitch (2020–…) watch online

Slo Pitch is a Canadian comedy web series, co-created by J Stevens, Gwenlyn Cumyn, and Karen Knox. The series centres on the Brovaries, an underachieving softball team for LGBTQ women and non-binary players. Despite being perennial losers, most of whom are more concerned with drinking beer and meeting women at after-game parties than they are with the sport, they unexpectedly find themselves in the league championships playing against their arch-rival Toronto Blue Gays.

Slo Pitch features a fully female and/or non-binary led creative team, a key cast that is 50 percent BIPOC, 70% of the cast and crew identifying as female or non-binary, and 80% of key cast identifying as LGBTQ+. The cast includes Kirsten Rasmussen, Gwenlyn Cumyn, Karen Knox, Lane Webber, K Alexander, Khadijah Roberts-Abdullah, Amanda Cordner, Aisha Evelyna, and Chelsea Muirhead.

It premiered August 3, 2020 on OUTtvgo in Canada, and aired on OutTV's linear television channel in 2021. Slo Pitch was picked up by IFC (U.S. TV channel) and aired on their platform October 18, 2021.

Shortly after being picked up by IFC, Season Two premiered in June, 2022.

The series was produced by Shaftesbury Films (Paige Haight) and Boss & Co (Michael Schram, Cumyn, and Knox), with funding from the Independent Production Fund and the Bell Fund.

Co-writers Knox and Cumyn met 12 years ago at George Brown Theatre School where they started collaborating on plays.

The show’s theme song is called "Play the Field", by Partner.
