[via press release from MTV2]

MTV2 LAUNCHES AN ALL NEW ORIGINAL PROGRAMMING BLOCK FRIDAY NIGHTS, STARTING APRIL 1 AT 11:00 P.M. ET/PT

All New Season Of "Uncommon Sense with Charlamagne" Premieres At 11:00 p.m ET/PT. Followed by the New Series, "Binge Thinking" Hosted By Mac Lethal at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT

MTV2 today announced the return of "Uncommon Sense with Charlamagne" on April 1 at 11:00 p.m. ET/PT and the debut of new series "Binge Thinking" hosted by rapper Mac Lethal and Amber Diamond immediately following at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT.

Hosted by Charlamagne Tha God, the weekly half-hour comedic talk show makes "uncommon sense" out of the biggest stories trending in pop culture and social media. Season two will now feature a live studio audience with fan favorites Andrew Schulz (MTV2's Guy Code, IFC's Benders) and Crissle (Comedy Central's Drunk History, Loudspeakers Network Podcast "The Read") permanently joining Charlamagne at the desk. MTV2's Desus & Mero are back to address moments from the week are "Classic or Trash" and Charlamagne will close each show by dishing out his trademark "Righteous Ratchet Wisdom."

"Binge Thinking" is the ultimate bar crawl, game show on TV that will finally discover the truth behind the question: think you're smarter after a few drinks? Host, Mac Lethal (Youtube star, rapper), along with co-host Amber Diamond ("Nick Cannon Presents: Wild 'N Out"), visit a different city's party spot each week and whip up an impromptu game show with unsuspecting (and sometimes a bit "lubricated") contestants. The games cover everything in pop culture from trivia, to physical stunts, to prop-based gameplay all aimed at testing the contestants' ability to think while they drink.
