“Please keep this kind of content going,” was another popular comment, this time from content creator Shane Donovan.

Lane himself captioned his photo saying, “I’m shooting my special today so to celebrate here I am in a speedo. (Give me this one day, tomorrow I’m back to the jokes).”

The stand-up special he refers to was taped last night at the Eli and Edythe Broad Stage in Santa Monica. It will air exclusively on Hulu at a later date.

In a press statement announcing the Hulu special, Lane said, “I am thrilled to be part of the Disney Hulu family. This is the closest to becoming the fifth Golden Girl.”
