"Chris Hardwick: Mandroid" - COMEDY CENTRAL Original Stand-Up World Premiere
Saturday, November 10 from 11:00 p.m. - Midnight
The Nerdist himself, Chris Hardwick, celebrates all things nerdy in his first one-hour COMEDY CENTRAL stand-up special, "Chris Hardwick: Mandroid." Hipsters beware: there is no irony in Hardwick's affinity for Captain Picard, Comic-Con and the Atari 2600. "Mandroid" features candid comedy tales that cover virginity, chess club, shark vaginas, awkward childhood, awkward adulthood (which in this case is an extension of awkward childhood) and a myriad of other topics which may or may not include Quidditch.
"A Very Sunny Christmas" - COMEDY CENTRAL Premiere
Saturday, 11/24, from 10:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m.
Ah Christmas, chestnuts roasting on an open fire, the pitter-patter of reindeer hooves on the roof, and a completely naked Danny DeVito crawling out of a couch. No one does Christmas like the gang from "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia!" Tune in for the COMEDY CENTRAL premiere of "A Very Sunny Christmas" and watch Mac, Dennis, Charlie and Dee look back on their holiday pasts and learn what Christmas is really all about.
"Kyle Kinane: Whiskey Icarus" - COMEDY CENTRAL Original Stand-Up World Premiere
Saturday, November 24 from 11:00 p.m. - Midnight
Shot at The Fillmore in San Francisco, "Kyle Kinane: Whiskey Icarus" is an all-new one-hour special from a journeyman storyteller. Tune in as Kinane shares tales of an airline passenger who travels with pancakes in a bag, a wallet-emptying drunken cab ride to Wendy's and the day he spent laughing at headstones. Kinane's introspective exploration dissects the limits of personal tolerance, wisdom gained versus knowledge learned, and a defense of spiritual fence-sitting. Oh, and pizza and hot dogs, of course.
"Russell Peters: The Green Card Tour" - Network Television Premiere
Friday, November 30 from 1:00 a.m. - 2:00 a.m.
International comedy sensation Russell Peters is back with his all-new stand-up special "Russell Peters: The Green Card Tour," filmed at London's massive O2 Arena.
