Bill Cosby ‘Far From Finished’ Premiere Later This Month

Bill Cosby ‘Far From Finished’ Premiere Later This Month

After three entire decades, Bill Cosby’s latest comedy special will hit TV on Comedy Central on Sat. Nov. 23rd 8PM under the very appropriate title Far From Finished.

In semi-Cosby style, it’s a 90 min. special rather than the traditional hour special. It will also be on Blu-Ray/DVD the following Tues. Nov. 26th.

So, just know that this is what you will be watching on that Saturday (we were there and it was everything we’ve expected from watching Cosby from start to finish) and this will be the gift you will be giving to the comedy fan in your life (even if that’s you or they have already got their own copy because they’ll want two).

Oh, and Here’s a Clip From Bill Cosby’s Far From Finished Too

Oh, and Here’s a Clip From Bill Cosby’s Far From Finished Too

We’d honestly feel remiss if we didn’t post the just uploaded clip from Bill Cosby’s Far From Finished at EW.com even though we just posted about the special premiering later this month Comedy Central (see our post below for more details). 

So, click the link and enjoy some brand new Cosby.

Amazon Sets Premiere Dates for ‘Alpha House’ and ‘Betas,’ to Make First 3 Episodes Free

Over the next two weeks, Amazon Studios will finally premiere the first two of their original comedy series. Betas, that has the awesome Jon Daly, and Garry Trudeau’s Alpha House will roll out on Amazon and everyone will be able to watch the first 3 episodes free of charge.

We wonder if this will work versus Netflix’s release of all episodes to subscribers only.

While a Daily Show-esque program, Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell features stand up comedy. Not only do they have a bunch of great stand ups on the show, but they’ll have the likes of the very funny Sheng Wang do a set on the show. 

It’s definitely something good to see considering that stand up during late night isn’t just a given anymore.

Watch Sheng Wang’s set here.

‘Breaking Bad’ Creator Vince Gilligan to Guest Star on ‘Community’

Despite Breaking Bad being one of the most intense dramas ever, you can’t ignore the fact that the show has had comedians Bob Odenkirk, Bill Burr, and Matt Jones in roles and is undoubtedly a comedy aficionado. 

That’s why it’s only slightly surprising that he’s making a guest appearance on Community (the surprising part being about him acting).

FX Buys Modern Day Odd Couple Comedy From Randall Einhorn

FX/FXx adds another intriguing project to their slate with a Randall Einhorn (Wilfred, The Office) an adaptation of an ‘odd couple’ type novel that’s a little bit of a departure from the typical odd couple fare, but relies on the same dynamic. 

That is, unless we’re mistaken, and The Odd Couple featured gang members and drug use.

While Doug Liman is more action oriented, it’s good that offbeat romantic dramedy is where Starz is staying genre wise.

Steve Rannazzisi First Hour Stand Up Special ‘Manchild’ Premiering Next Week on Comedy Central

Many of you might know Steve Rannazzisi from The League on FXx, but he’s also a great stand-up comedian as well. That’s why you should check out his very first hour long stand up special ‘Manchild’ next week on Comedy Central, and, if you really like it, drop $5 to buy the extended and uncut version.

Knowing how well Steve channels his anger in his stand up, it might be worth it to spend 5 clams.
