Nathan Fielder Blasts Paramount+ for Removing Nathan for You Episode on The Rehearsal

In the recent airing of “The Rehearsal,” Nathan Fielder criticized Paramount+, playfully ridiculing them for deleting an episode from his satirical show, “Nathan For You.

What did Nathan Fielder say about Paramount+ removing the Nathan for You episode?

In the latest installment of The Rehearsal, they reenacted the instance where Fielder found out that Paramount had taken an episode of Nathan For You off their series. Fielder brought Alexander Leiss (previously “Fake Nathan” from the first season) to play Fielder, composing a fictional email response to Paramount concerning this matter.

Fielder clarified through a voiceover (via EW), stating he sent an email to certain acquaintances at Paramount, questioning why a particular episode was taken off the air. The complexity of the situation lay in the fact that Paramount was currently broadcasting another series of his, which hadn’t been renewed yet. How he addressed them could potentially impact his career.

Fielder points out that Paramount acknowledged the removal of the episode, attributing it primarily to “sensitivities,” as they wished to eliminate any content related to antisemitism given their unease about this topic amidst the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, especially in Germany where Paramount+ is based.

The third episode of Season 3, titled “Horseback Riding/Man Zone” on Nathan For You, features Fielder’s attempt to launch an outdoor clothing brand named Summit Ice. This endeavor aims to promote Holocaust awareness, as he discovered that the manufacturer of his preferred winter jacket, Taiga, paid tribute to a man who denies the Holocaust.

In the given episode, Fielder, a Jew, enlists a rabbi’s aid in creating the brand’s logo design. As expected from Fielder, the presentation of the idea was extravagant and was quickly dismissed by shop owners. Regardless of its rejection, the concept of Summit Ice sparked immediate interest among viewers and the actual company (which exists) garnered approximately $300,000 in its initial eight weeks, remaining accessible up to this moment.
