While Joel McHale’s Soup-like show never caught on with Netflix crowd {in spite of its adherence to the original’s insouciant spirit}, the indomitable show that finds comedy in TV clips returns with either its second or sixth host — depending on if you count the Talk Soup days. This time, the reality show bits will be stitched together by Brazilian comedian Jade Catta-Preta

The Soup [E!, 10p]
