Caitlin Peluffo, a finalist on Netflix’s “Funny AF,” announces first full-length YouTube special, “Prosciutto Rose”

Peluffo’s debut stand-up special is set for release on YouTube on June 11, after her run to the finals of Netflix’s Kevin Hart comedy competition series “Funny AF.”

Caitlin Peluffo, who advanced to the finals of Netflix’s Kevin Hart comedy competition series “Funny AF,” has announced the premiere of her first full-length stand-up special, “Prosciutto Rose,” on YouTube. Deadline reported that the special will debut on June 11, giving audiences a direct-to-platform release timed shortly after her appearance on the streaming series competition.

Peluffo, described in the report as originally from San Francisco, is framing the special as a milestone after her “Funny AF” run. Deadline characterized the project as an exclusive, with the premiere date set for June 11. The announcement did not include details about the themes or material the special will cover, indicating that further information is expected to be released closer to launch.

Deadline also noted that Peluffo will be releasing “Prosciutto Rose” a month after making the finals of “Funny AF.” The Netflix competition series follows comedians through rounds that culminate in a winner receiving a Netflix comedy special. In a separate Netflix Tudum write-up, the outlet reported that Ron Taylor won “Funny AF” with Kevin Hart, and that Taylor earned a Netflix comedy special as the result of winning the competition.

While Peluffo did not receive the Netflix comedy special associated with the competition’s win, her upcoming release reflects a broader entertainment distribution pathway for finalists and other competition participants. Rather than a Netflix debut, “Prosciutto Rose” is slated for YouTube, which can provide a different promotional cycle, discoverability mechanics, and audience reach compared with a subscription-only launch.

The June 11 premiere date places the special within a short news window around the conclusion of Peluffo’s participation in “Funny AF.” Deadline said that “no word yet” was available on what the special will explore, adding that details should be available in the following days. As of the announcement, the reporting did not specify runtime, production credits, or whether the special will be accompanied by additional promotional programming.

In practical terms, the release also sets up a test of how comedy competition visibility translates into independent streaming releases. “Funny AF” is a Netflix property, but the new special is scheduled for YouTube, meaning Peluffo’s audience growth will rely on platform search and recommendation systems as well as standard marketing channels rather than only Netflix’s subscriber base.

“Prosciutto Rose” will be Peluffo’s first full-length stand-up special, according to Deadline. For viewers who followed her on “Funny AF,” the project offers a chance to see how her comedic voice develops beyond the competition format, while for industry observers the announcement underscores that finalists can build on high-profile exposure to secure standalone release opportunities.

Why It Matters

  • The June 11 YouTube premiere highlights a direct-to-platform distribution path for comedians emerging from streaming competition shows.
  • Timed releases after “Funny AF” can help determine how quickly finalists convert competition exposure into a broader, standalone audience.
  • Because “Funny AF” is associated with a Netflix comedy special for the winner, Peluffo’s separate YouTube release reflects distinct outcomes within the same competition ecosystem.
  • The lack of early detail on the special’s content means promotional and informational updates may shape audience expectations in the run-up to release.
