Any background on this? I know some of the predator poacher looking stuff was never released, but figured it was for liability reasons.

Yeah there's a lot of background on that. It's been discussed at length but just to give a summary:
Read the thread you insufferable faggot.
WP2 still looks aesthetically pleasing and enticing enough 16+ months after the trailer was posted. But it is awfully suspicious that Sam and crew can go lightspeed to crank out these Twitter politics videos (driving maximum engagement) or book these standup gigs (maximum revenue while performing the same material repeatedly and using notecards on stage to keep focused).
Even the confirmed cultural touchstone that Fishtank came to be, with plenty of investor capital and loaded with monetization aspects, seems to have flexible deadlines at best.
I don't watch 50 minute epic political owns. I don't watch hours of gay webcam friendship simulator. I did go to a standup show and I did have some laughs, despite a palpable autism radiating among the crowd.
I want the FUNNIES, Hyde. The silly quotable skits, the over-the-top absurdity. I can pick any random video on MDE3 and enjoy it a million times more than a 50 minute political snoozefest.

I'm willing to bet that they've been shopping the show around and are expecting it to be bought after Sam gets popular enough through standup.

You just said it yourself. Sam is building up maximum engagement to build a huge audience and hype so he can actually make real money on WP2 when it comes out. The Elon video was made in-house with his own gear and his own editing team that he pays with fent-laced oxy. It was basically free. Extreme Peace started with a one million dollar budget, which is the minimum amount they spent on the project - and he has at least one investor he has to pay back if he hasn't already with the stand-up money.
It's not that different from a band going on tour to promote an upcoming album, or an actor doing an interview cycle to promote his new homosexual movie.

That's retarded. Even actually great stand ups haven't found a place for their TV shows. But the accused Nazi will?

Okay but most artists aren't teasing their big album and promoting it with a tour for 3 plus years with nothing to show for it. Sam's comeback over the last two years has been relatively big, but it's not gonna last forever. Fishtank has it's audience, but it's not this big viral sensation now like it was with season one. PGL is still dogshit, big guests like Adam Friedland and Dasha or not. And seemingly the only thing he's producing now other than shitty tiktok/reels content is Sam showing his ass with these "srs bznz" style of political fireside chats where he says some of the most obvious political takes ever, while still sounding retarded (Elon and Vivek importing pajeets to work for pennies on the dollar = Marxism, apparently?)
My point is at a certain point you gotta shit or get off the pot, the goodwill and more importantly eyes that he has on his content aren't gonna last forever, and if it comes out and it's not even that good? You better believe that's going to have a huge knock on effect on the rest of his ventures, that I'm willing to bet are mostly held together by people who are still subscribed soley because they see it as paying the World Peace 2 tax.
I rag on Sam alot in this thread, but mostly because I can't stand how lazy and gay his content has become. We're coming up on nearly 10 (!) years since World Peace premiered on Adult Swim, and outside of a handful of videos, I can't count really anything of worth that he's produced in that time.
You are a retarded nigger ball washer. Stop making elaborate excuses for why someone can't release a micro show that was done filming years ago lol. What band is touring to promote an album for years on end and telling their fans that they are stuck fixing the graphics?

Is there anyone producing sketch comedy in 2025 that is relevant, doing numbers and making actual money? Is there any right wing sketch comedy at all? Last time I checked YouTube was just red circles with clickbait titles like "This Taco Bell Employee Said What!!!!?" It's podcast clips, reaction videos, twelve hour deep dives into obscure topics, and fake prank videos. Reels on other platforms are the same thing but add a greasy negro in the bottom right corner pointing a finger upwards and making an uncomfortable expression.
Seems like the stuff MDE is attempting to do is pretty much a dead medium that they're trying to revive against all common sense because they enjoy doing it and have something to prove. Seems like Sam has been rebuilding his fanbase to be much bigger than it ever was before Jews and transexuals ruined the internet, while remaining relatively independent. I don't know but it seems pretty easy to blunder if rushed, especially to please "fans" who never really thought his stuff was that good to begin with.

I do wonder what the plan is for releasing it. There's no chance it would come back on Adult Swim. Apparently, Mike Laslzo loved it and still does and just capitulated under pressure from all sides. Despite the recent "vibe shift" and Sam/MDE's second wind of popularity with the new generation, I just don't see it coming back there. There's nowhere else it could fit on legacy television besides maybe Comedy Central. MTV, which did air Wonder Showzen--definitely a big influence on the show, but I remember when it did air, it didn't get much promotion. Besides, MTV seems to be the Ridiculousness repeat 24/7 network these days. With a lot of the show filmed, seems like a moot point since I doubt they wants to deal with censorship and cutting anything they've done which they had to deal with at Adult Swim when there were no problems to begin with.
I doubt streaming networks would pick it up either. Despite Netflix Comedy laissez-faire approach to quantity over quality, I don't think they'd offer much money for Sam to take it. I do think that there are some larger companies willing to give MDE a second shot now despite their past. I haven't seen any of the recent stand up they've been touring, but they're able to book well known mainstream venues. They seem to get a solid turn out everywhere they go too. However, Sam/MDE are probably a lot more protective of WP compared to just touring stand-up. It's a stand alone "art" and their creative baby, it's an important piece in all sense of the word.
The obvious option is to paywall it behind Gumroad or whatever. Not sure how that will help get it out there. MDE already is fairly insular after the first WP incident and even most ride-or-die MDE fans seem to be lukewarm on a lot of the multiple series MDE has outside of the podcast and Fishtank on there. I don't think he wants WP2 to be solely for the current fanbase.
Sam might have a stand alone website made for it and have it pay to view without Gumroad, etc. too. I'm just not sure that's what he either wants or a good idea for WP though. I think the idea is to have it be a genuine follow-up to the original which mainstream, casuals, and non-MDE fans can engage with and be aware of. Sam obviously has business acumen and thinks a lot through that lens, WP has to make a return to investors; but it's also the most important project MDE has and important to Sam "the artist" as a piece of work.

No. Like you said. Just some asshole recording on his phone gets the point across 99% of the time. Like Al jokes is mostly right wing jokes and he's hilarious but it's just him recording himself on his phone.
The barrier of entry to do comedy is 0 so now everyone can do "good enough" comedy for people to enjoy

I'll field this retarded question: Who gives a fuck? Sam isn't the only game in town when it comes to edgy comedy, even edgy sketch comedy. Watering down his stream of content with boring slop like PGL, or actual dogshit like literally almost everything else on the Gumroad, is I guess "growing the audience". But when you bring in the normie adjacent audience with stuff like that and Fishtank, don't be surprised when the content is continually filed and belt sanded down into into something indistinguishable from any other normie internet comedy.
And none of that even matters, they haven't released the only thing of any kind of artistic value that they've worked on since World Peace anyway, so why should I care that they're carrying the banner for the white race by being the only wignat podcast on the internet that says the N and K word (censored on the clip channel tho, we still gotta monetize bro!) like it's some radical thing I couldn't get anywhere else.

Roger Stone probably doesn't care about the money tbf. Sambo could just pay him off with 24/7 access to his crew of wigger boys.

It must have been a few years since you checked in on old Ian. He's become the sort of Glass Joe of internet views, the first bracket of view counts you need before you can start bragging to girls that you own a "successful" channel. Sam Hyde dwarfs him in popularity, and even more so in relevance. Anisa has even talked about how they've had to tighten their belts and consider maybe getting day jobs. I'm not sure if he has a patreon that's contributing or how they're paying their bills, but the situation is grim over at the Jomba household.
Speaking of Anisa, it's questionable to say whether she loves or supports him. He wasn't allowed to go to her family Christmas (or maybe Thanksgiving) and had to stay at home. She's not so subtly hinted multiple times that she find Hasan Piker hot and imagines what it would be like to kiss him. She constantly puts the man down, persuades him to do things like go on psychiatric drugs because she thinks he has a problem and shopped for multiple therapists to find one who agreed with him and complains how she doesn't even want to do the podcast or any shows really. He would respond with that he doesn't want to do them either.
Anisa is a partner in name only, and is the type of wife I wouldn't force on any of my enemies. Sam completely mogs Idubbz in every way.
It's possible he is suffering from the sad reality of our day and age that minimalist effort rewards maximum profits. Creating a show like WP requires a lot of money, time, and effort for a level of success that Fish Tank and a few stand up shows can equal if not surpass.

Look man, I can see from your seething defense that your Sam's number 1 fan. It doesn't change that his content is just not that entertaining to me anymore. I'd take phone videos in his mom's house over hours of dead air on streams with Jet and whatever the fuck fishtank is nowadays every day of the week.
He's not this scrappy starving artist anymore, he's made a decent amount of money over the past couple of years, some of it from me after I bought a T-shirt and waited almost 2 months for it with no shipping updates! Glad he's finally in a position where he's somewhat succesful, but really what is all that worth when that success has produced dogshit like The Great War? To me, not a whole lot. He'll have my respect again if Extreme Peace ever comes out and is at least as good as World Peace. Until then, it's appropriate to call him a lazy grifter, because that's what he is right now.

I find him funny but there is no denying he's a grifter. He's 39 and childless. Which is fine, whatever, but he's made family and procreating a huge part of his messaging. If he recognizes having a family is the main goal, why waste so much time surrounding himself wiggers? You can't tell me he couldn't maintain a successful lifestyle without surrounding himself with drug addled white trash. Yeah man, a super based uber mensch would definitely establish white people who act like niggers as the core part of his day-to-day life.
