THE WORLD TELEVISION PREMIERE OF "BERT KREISCHER: COMFORTABLY DUMB" DEBUTS SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 8 AT 11:00 P.M. * ON COMEDY CENTRAL

NEW YORK, January 21, 2009 -- Keep the New Year alive and kickin', laughing all the way to the couch! Funny man Bert Kreischer is rocking the mic in a big way in the Network Television Premiere of "Bert Kreischer: Comfortably Dumb" premiering Sunday, February 8 at 11:00 p.m.

Bert Kreischer is a husband, father, and quasi-felon � seriously, he did time in Disney jail! If viewers think they've ever made poor choices, try dropping acid before going on a Peter Pan ride, entering a birthing room or, dear Lord, winning a spouse fight. Kreischer is ready to share his hard-won wisdom and although he might be comfortably dumb, he's also funny as all get out!
