Great news, wine lovers!
Comedian Matt Bellassai—who you may know from the weekly BuzzFeed webseries where he “gets drunk at [his] desk and complains about stuff”—is about to have a lot more projects for you to follow.
Variety announced Tuesday that the Whine About It vlogger has signed to CAA, and that his series will soon be taking a hiatus so he can focus on a book, a podcast, and other new projects.
At the end of this week I'll be stepping aside from BuzzFeed to start work on a bunch of new and exciting things

For anyone worried about Whine About It cutting off mid-season: Don’t! Bellassai has a finale episode in the works to hold everyone over during the hiatus.
ALSO TO CLARIFY: Tomorrow we'll be launching the finale of this season's Whine About It and then we'll be on hiatus!
