From a tweet that many folks thought was a straight-up Mr. Show reunion, we have now come all the way around to what is Bob Odenkirk and David Cross’ new sketch series With Bob & David, which is set for release on Netflix on Fri. Nov. 13th.
You’re probably already itching to see any of it at this point, so there’s this teaser to tide you over until a full trailer or clip will be posted to tide you over until the actual release.

Anomalisa is set for a limited theatrical release on Dec. 30th.
What started as a stop motion that received a whole lot of love on Kickstarter has gotten a whole lot of love on the film festival circuit.
The brilliant Charlie Kaufman wrote and co-directed, with Starburns Industries’ Duke Johnson, Anomalisa, which Paramount Pictures has acquired while at the Toronto International Film Festival for distribution very soon.
So, come Christmas time, we’ll get to see both Star Wars and Kaufman’s vision of “a man crippled by the mundanity of his life”. Sounds pretty great to us.
It all starts at 10PM.
Comedy Central has a big animated night ahead of them as their latest animated series Moonbeam City makes its big debut and long time Comedy Central institution South Park is marking its 19th season all in a few hours.
Catch the 19th season kick-off of South Park at 10PM, then the series premiere of Moonbeam City right after at 10:30PM on Comedy Central.
Andy Daly continues to marvel with his comedic prowess as life reviewer Forrest MacNeil on Review, attempting to review those Magic 8-Balls that would offer a more or less affirmative answer to questions that you posed to it.
Watch what could go wrong absolutely go wrong with such a simple endeavor here.

We knew it was only a matter of time before Pete Holmes got another show.
Pete Holmes has written a pilot about the time in his life where he just gotten divorced and was crashing on a couch of comedian friends, hence the title.
You’ve probably heard plenty about this on Pete’s podcast You Made It Weird, but seeing it actually played out on a sitcom is very intriguing.
It would seem more than probably that Pete would have all his friends on the show, which would mean we’d all get to see Kumail Nanjiani on yet another premium cable show.

What started as a wonderful way to get your local weather has become a full fledged show as David Krumholtz has taken his eccentric, freewheeling grandmother character Gigi and adapted it to the upcoming Gigi Does It coming to IFC.
Get a feel of what’s to come from Gigi in this trailer then look for the series premiere on Tues. Oct. 1st at 10:30PM on IFC.

Craig Ferguson is damn good at talking to people on TV and we’re glad that he’s getting to do it without the impetus of guests promoting things.
In an interesting turn for the History Channel, they’re going to have a panel debate show hosted by a comedian, Craig Ferguson, on Join or Die. Famous folks and historical experts will mix it up and debate various best/worst queries throughout history.
16 episodes have been ordered and we can’t help but think that comedian history buffs Conan O’Brien and Nick Offerman will want to be guests.
The master impressionist and one of our favorite comedians around, James Adomian, got to bring his latest and greatest impression on @midnight with Chris Hardwick last night.
Of course, James gave a great glimpse of what the spirited Sen. Sanders could bring to the podium of a game show along side Heather Anne Campbell and Jon Daly.
Please enjoy some shouting and pointing that wasn’t in the Republican presidential debates last night.
Maybe Sen .Sanders will have Adomian’s impression of him as a running mate?

Leave it to a show on a niche cable network having celebrities, many who are comedians, to fight for climate change awareness.
Years of Living Dangerously, a show covering the reality of climate change, on the National Geographic Channel just got picked up for a second season and is really going for it in terms of their guests this time around.
So far, they’ve got David Letterman, Ty Burrell, Jack Black, Cecily Strong, Don Cheadle, Olivia Munn, Ian Somerhalder, James Cameron, and Arnold Schwarzenegger on board for the show in some aspect or another.
Letterman will specifically be interviewing the Prime Minister of India.
Hopefully, this show will present climate change in an entertaining way that isn’t just laughing at certain presidential candidates that seem like they’re spouting off nonsense.
Enjoy your daily recommended servings of both Paul Scheer and Abbi Jacobson.
Online publication Vulture tasked Broad City’s Abbi Jacobson with interviewing the hysterical multi-hyphenate Paul Scheer about everything he has going on right now.
Instead, they did this fun meta interview.
We are excited to announce that @amyschumer will be honored at this year’s #Britannias! pic.twitter.com/YJ0tRtNfEQ
It’s already been a banner year for Schumer and we guess we have to make that banner a little bit bigger.
Amy Schumer is set to join the esteemed group of Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Sacha Baron Cohen, Matt Stone & Trey Parker, Ben Stiller, and Betty White for winning the British Academy for Film and Television Awards/BAFTA’s Charlie Chaplin Award for Excellence in Comedy.
We’ll be curious to see what Amy has in store for 2016 that might possibly top her 2015.

If you haven’t committed the name Jermaine Fowler to memory yet, you’ll end up doing that soon with what he has in the works.
Not that it’s a surprise to us, but Jermaine Fowler has got a lot of great irons in great fires.
An hour comedy special, Jermaine Fowler: Give ‘Em Hell Kid, that mixes stand-up and interviews with family and friends is coming to Showtime in mid December. On top of that, Jermaine is developing a semi-autobiographical multi-cam sitcom following his very young parents trying to raise him and the rest of his family.
In case you haven’t noticed, another era of shows based on the lives of comedians is riding high right now.
Comedian and breakfast thief Andrew Sleighter did quite well in notching in his first stand-up set on Conan last night.
Watch his set (as well get some helpful breakfast tips if you know what we mean) here.
With the very funny Julian McCullough and Annie Lederman at the reins of E!’s new pop culture debate show, We Have Issues, you might want to carve out time at 10:30PM tonight to check out the premiere.
If you’re worried this was going to cut into your going out and drinking time tonight, we’re sure you could work in a drinking game while watching a show where people argue over pop culture.
Leann Bowen, a writer/director on UCB’s Los Angeles Digital Team, dreamt up the nightmare that would be an entire family having competing YouTube shows that they just had to do all the time, even if they’re eating dinner.
Enjoy the madness of a YouTube Family here.

The prodigal network’s comedy line-up seems to be returning to Tina Fey, Mike Schur, and now Amy Poehler.
NBC’s latest addition to their comedy development slate comes from Charlie Grady about a reluctant prince that gets thrust into power and having life thrown out of order. Amy Poehler is on board as an executive producer along with her Paper Kite Productions.
With Poehler, Fey, and Mike Schur all having shows in various very committed stages at NBC, one can’t help but think of that magical time when 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation headlined their comedy line-up.
The legendary sketch series The Carol Burnett Show has stood the test of time and Burnett endures as one of America’s comedy treasures to this very day.
So, of course, you would want to see episodes, personally picked by Carol Burnett herself, that haven’t been seen for 40 years including the debut episodes, on-set pranks, and more.
All of that’s on this new 6-DVD box set for The Carol Burnett Show: The Lost Episodes that was released earlier this week. Get it like you know you’re going to here.

Undoubtedly, one of Fallon’s favorites, Bargatze served up another great, homespun yet, deft insight about his everyman sort of life.
Watch it here and see why Jimmy has made him a regular stand-up on his show.

However, they’re open to other things outside of a series.
In a recent interview during the shooting of season 6, Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein revealed that the 8th season of Portlandia that IFC has ordered will be its last.
A movie, musical, or some sort of one off could be possible, but don’t fret about the exit of the show yet. Season 6 is in production and seasons 7 and 8 have yet to be even conceived of.
Still, we’re sure they’ll start thinking of some great collector box set that comes with plenty of birds to put wherever you want.

Looks like Buffalo Wild Wings and Comedy Central have taken different approaches to handling this week’s Steve Rannazzisi debacle.
Despite getting a lot of heat for his admission that his 9/11 escape story was a lie, Steve Rannazzisi’s apologies seem to have been enough to keep his new hour special, Breaking Dad, from being pre-empted, moved, etc. at Comedy Central.
Its premiere is set for 11PM tonight on Comedy Central and we’re sure that some folks will be probably trying to fact check every single bit.
Seeing how all this spun out of control years after the lie was told, it would be thoroughly intriguing now to see Steve be interviewed Brian Williams on his new show if they went in-depth into their fabrications.
