LOS ANGELES, CA - (October 29, 2010) - Jamie Kennedy has the wit and hilarity to keep anyone on their toes in UNCOMFORTABLE - a one-hour stand-up special premiering on Saturday, November 6th at 9:00 PM (ET/PT) on SHOWTIME. Best known for his work as an actor in more than 40 films (Romeo + Juliet, Scream, Three Kings) and with approximately 190 episodes of television under his belt (The Jamie Kennedy Experiment, Ghost Whisperer), Kennedy has no limits in his latest stand-up. As he candidly details his rollercoaster life in the public eye - from who he's dating, to his house getting burglarized, to the size of his little Jamie - viewers will experience it all. This comedy special is the latest installment of the Network's on-going SHOWTIME LAUGH OUT LOUD comedy franchise.
Kennedy, best known for his breakthrough performance in the hit horror film Scream and subsequent sequel Scream 2, landed his big break being cast in Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet, alongside Leonardo DiCaprio.

In 2002, Kennedy created his own sketch television comedy show, The Jamie Kennedy Experiment, best described as a combination of Candid Camera meets Saturday Night Live. The series quickly became The WB's highest-ranking new show, attracting three million viewers each week. Among the wacky characters played by Kennedy, the all-time favorite - Brad Gluckman, the white �wanna-be rapper� from Malibu - lead to 2003's feature film, Malibu's Most Wanted. In 2006, Kennedy's company Wannabe Producers produced MTV's Blowin' Up and his comedy special, Unwashed for Comedy Central. Additional projects include Son of the Mask, Kickin' It Old Skool, Heckler, The Cleveland Show, and the highly rated CBS drama Ghost Whisperer.
