Reality
Bites Back
If
competitive reality television is your bag, you can't miss
this latest twist on the genre. Ten comedians enter, one
comedian leaves with a fat cash prize to stave off their
side gigs, if only for a little while. Michael Ian Black
serves as ringmaster for this circus of the stand-ups with
parodies of "American Gladiators," "The Amazing
Race," "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?"
and more of your elimination show favorites.

at Gotham
The walls of New York City's Gotham Comedy Club shake with
laughter. Comedy Central's first original multi-platform
series "Live at Gotham" is back for another laugh-out-loud
season. Tune in and crack up as ventriloquist Jeff Dunham
hosts the season three premiere of "Live At Gotham,"

The
Colbert Report
Colbert Report spoofing Fox News's O'Reilly Factor,
Flag-wearing Stephen Colbert hosts this topical semi news
program, with a comdeic twist and the odd addition of
of serious guests. Stephen Colbert's self-aggrandizing
style is the central focus of where the humor and attention
is based.
Lewis
Black's Root of all Evil
Who better to serve as the ultimate decider on all things
evil than Lewis Black? "Lewis Black's Root of All Evil"
pits either two people such as Kim Jong Il and Tila Tequila
or pop culture topics such as You Tube vs. Porn against
each other in an open debate setting. A rotating group of
comedians take the stage and argue who or what is most evil
with Black making the final decision.
This Week:
Peta thinks no one should have a steak and the NRA thinks
everyone should have a shotgun. Animal rights nuts want
to close the zoos, and gun nuts want to kill all the animals.
"Meat is Murder" or "Murder is Fun?"
Who's crazier? To decide, Andy Kindler and Paul F. Tompkins
shoot it out in the court of the Honorable Judge Lewis Black,
the ultimate evaluator or evil. Tune in Wednesday at 10:30
p.m. et/pt on Comedy Central.
Reno 911
Spoofing Fox's COPS the show follows the fictional
Reno Sheriff's Department, NOT affiliated with the real
Reno Police Dept. The show is sketched out, but most of
the dialogue is actually unscripted. Just like the real
"COPS" they deal with family situations, racism,
drunks, and general dysfunctionality. The show is returning
in May with 8 new episodes for its 5th season. In the
debut episode, the deputies reach out to Jackie, the pickle-throwing
hooker, now facing a life-threatening disease. Future
episodes feature the Reno cops training a squad of policemen
from Baghdad, hiring a Hollywood acting coach to teach
them how to go undercover and Lt. Wiegel's estranged father
returning from prison and partying at strip clubs with
her co-workers.
Reno 911 CAST: Thomas Lennon as Lieutenant James "Jim"
Ron Dangle, Robert Ben Garant as Deputy Travis Junior,
Kerri Kenney-Silver as Deputy Trudy Wiegel, Wendi McLendon-Covey
as Deputy Clementine "Clemmie" Johnson, Niecy
Nash as Deputy Raineesha Williams Cedric Yarbrough as
Deputy S. "Jonsey" Jones, Carlos Alazraqui as
Deputy James Oswaldo Garcia and Mary Birdsong as Deputy
Cherisha Kimball.
South
Park
Created and written by Trey Parker and Matt Stone,
this cartoon is Comedy Central's first break out hit. It
takes place in the fictional town of South Park, CO. The
computer animation is based on the original construction
paper design seen in the original pilot. South Park has
been controversal in topics, in language and in theme.
Mind
of Mencia
The fourth Season on Mind of Mencia will premiere on
May 21st at 10:30pm. Carlos Mencia is the host and driving
force of this show which has the benefit of being politically
incorrect from several standpoints. As a (Hispanic) minority
himself, he can mock other minorities with hard biting humor
that just couldn't be delivered from other "mainstream"
comedians. On this season of the show will turn the election,
recession and other tough topics into humor for his series.
Kenny
and Spenny
"Kenny vs. Spenny" is a reality/comedy series
that pits childhood friends against each other in outrageous
competitions. The winner achieves short-term glory and bragging
rights, while the loser is forced to perform a humiliating
stunt of the winner's choosing. Entertainment Weekly says
that "Kenny vs. Spenny "…are quite possibly the
end of civilization as we know it - but not lacking in laughs."

COMEDY ICON MITCH HEDBERG'S NEW CD "DO YOU BELIEVE
IN GOSH?"
RELEASED ON COMEDY CENTRAL RECORDS® TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER
9
The long-awaited third album from the late comedy icon Mitch
Hedberg, "Do You Believe in Gosh?" is set for
release on Comedy Central Records on Tuesday, September
9.
The CD was recorded two months prior to his death and contains
nearly 40 minutes of previously unreleased stand-up material.
"Do You Believe in Gosh?" captures most of the
material Hedberg was working on for what would have been
his next full-length album in a free-form show with a large
amount of audience interaction. Listeners can expect the
same bizarre one-liners like, "Is a hippopotamus a
hippopotamus or just a really cool apoatmus?" delivered
in the drawly, good-natured way only Hedberg could pull
off. Hedberg gives his unique point of view on such topics
as the headless horseman, Medusa, whom he refers to as the
"snake-haired bitch" and squirrels on water skis.
Also included in the CD package is a booklet including never-before-seen
photos and excerpts from Hedberg's private journals. The
CD pulses with Hedberg's unique wit and spirit and is a
document of a comedy master
Comedian Bill Burr takes the stage and tells it like it
is in his all-new one-hour stand-up special. "Bill
Burr: Why Do I Do This?" world premieres Sunday,
August 31 at 11:00 p.m. on COMEDY CENTRAL!
From a stance of "uninformed" logic, Burr confronts
racism and homophobia, relationships and over population
with a simplistic honesty that is just as relatable as it
is hilarious. Burr makes his case against "How to Catch
a Predator" as bad PR for white people, shares his
views against population control for animals and explains
how the Government has used the fast food industry to cover
up conspiracies. This is one hour of comedy that is not
to be missed.
Comedian Jeffrey Ross takes the stage and tells it like
it is in his all-new one-hour stand-up special. "Jeffrey
Ross: No Offense Live From New Jersey," world premieres
Friday, August 22 at 11:30 p.m. on COMEDY CENTRAL!

Stand-up Special Premiere..
Filmed in front of a sold-out, packed house at the Hard Rock
Hotel in Hollywood, Florida, Carlos Mencia returns for an
all-new, one-hour Comdey Central Original Stand-up Special,

annoying hypocrites.

animated series.
Carlos
Mencia 'Performance Enhanced' Live Stand-Up DVD Review:
Carlos
Mencia Live Stand-Up DVD: Very entertaining! Get
ready to laugh at Carlos Mencia's latest stand-up DVD. This
guy has tons of energy on stage and covers tons of topics
in his performance. He's honest and raw. Despite some crazy
language, he tackles the topics that many comedians are
too scared to discuss with an audience. He covers rap, race,
politics and more! Check out the DVD, it's really worth
it if you are a comedy fan!
Chappelle's
Show DVD Reviews:
The
Best of Chappelle's Show Uncensored DVD and
Chappelle's Show: The Lost Episodes Uncensored DVD:
Two DVD's from Comedy Central that will have you laughing
from beginning to end are from none other than Dave Chappelle.
If you are as bummed as we were about the show coming to
a halt after a few seasons, you can grab one of these newly
released DVD's and relive all the hilarious skits over again!
Our favorites are the characters of "Tyrone Biggums",
"Lil' John" and "Prince"! You can't
forget the skits, "The Mad Real World" and "Charlie
Murphy: True Hollywood Stories," either! Dave
Chappelle's episodes were watch over again and can keep
you entertained for hours!
The
Roast of Flavor Flav and Roast of Denis Leary DVD Reviews:
The
Roast of Flavor Flav and Roast
of Denis Leary DVD Reviews: "FLAVA- FLAV!"
Each of these DVD's are hilarious but beware, the jokes can
get pretty downright mean and dirty. You should prepare yourself
ahead of time for the language and sexual innuendo jokes that
celebrities throw at the guest of honor. Personally, I liked
The Roast of Flava Flav a bit better than Denis Leary. The
jokes that came from the stars like Jimmy Kimmel, Snoop Dogg
and Ice-T were much more entertaining. Both DVD's are worth
watching but don't say we didn't warn you, they can get pretty
rough! It's just great to see a bunch of celebs and entertainers
getting together, making fun of eachother and having a good
sense of humor about it!
