Amy Schumer, Louis C.K., and Denis Leary To Be Final Guests on “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart”

Jon Stewart is going to have a ball on his last week.

Next Monday will be the start to Jon Stewart’s final days as host of The Daily Show. As such, he’s having three comedians, Amy Schumer, Louis C.K., and Denis Leary, all of whom he loves having on the show and subsequently had some of the best interview segments during Stewart’s Daily Show tenure.

That’s three guests, but Jon has 4 episodes left coming to an end on Aug. 6th, which means that there’s probably something special for a finale. It’s probably not an interview with Donald Trump over pizza, but we can always dream, right?

We’re not saying that you weren’t planning on it, but you should probably check out The Daily Show next week.

10PM Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll series premiere
10:30PM Married season 2 premiere

A new hour comedy block is back at FX with a new Denis Leary series, Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll where rather than the firetruck and fire house that he used to man on Rescue Me, he now takes the stage as a band’s embattled front man donned in leather and big hair.

Following that series premiere, Married, one of FX’s three comedies that chronicle different stages of life/relationships (the other ones being You’re The Worst and Louie) returns for its second season.

Like we said above, catch both tonight.

You got a preview of his flowing mane on The Daily Show over a year ago and now you get to see it action.

Denis Leary is an aging rocker in his new series Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll, but still very much in the wheelhouse of the Denis Leary we’ve come to know through stand-up, Rescue Me, and otherwise.

You can get your first look of the show in these two clips to show you what we’re talking about.

Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll doesn’t premiere until Thurs. July 16th on FX, so we’re sure a full length trailer is on the way soon.

(via Deadline)

Louis C.K.: Live From The Comedy Store premieres May 28th and “Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll” and season 2 of “Married” premiere July 16th.

FX gets the first TV dibs on Louis C.K.’s latest special “Live at The Comedy Store” that will make its TV debut almost two months after the season 5 premiere of Louie.

Following that, Denis Leary’s new comedy and hair in Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll and the second season of Married will round out FX’s comedy schedule for a while.

Between this, Netflix’s upcoming comedy, Veep and Silicon Valley returning, etc., the only time you might have freed up is those few months between Letterman leaving The Late Show and Colbert taking over.

Joining a network that has a show about a comedian doing a podcast, a meta talk show, a sketch show based on and out of Portland, and a set of mini-series sourced from a fictitious series of novels will be a comedy about obsessively playing amateur hockey.

Announced this morning, IFC has ordered 8 episodes of “Benders” from Denis Leary’s Apostle that indeed will follow friends desperately trying to obtain amateur hockey glory.

It has yet to be seen, but this could fill a need for when The League comes to an end soon.

We’d say that, by now, comedy has worked out for IFC. So, they’re now beefing up their development slate for this upcoming pilot season with a new scripted project from Denis Leary’s company Apostle.

Following with Apostle’s success with Maron at the network, the project, Uncle Chubby, follows the path of an intramural hockey team in an attempt to win a league title.

No talent is currently attached, but hopefully Liev Schrieber’s character from Goon can make a cameo.

FX Orders Denis Leary’s ‘Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll’ To Series

Denis Leary has returned to FX after a hit run with Rescue Me with his rock comedy series Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll. Leary plays Johnny Rock who is trying to get his life back together as well as reunite the band, which could be fun to watch with Leary as a former rock star.

We’re curious to see if FX or FXx will ultimately air this come next year. We’re guessing FX.

More Late Night Interviews Should Be Like The Ones with Denis Leary and Jon Stewart

As actual long time friends, Denis Leary and Jon Stewart, in lieu of a typical interview, bicker wonderfully when Leary’s on The Daily Show like he did last night. It’s better than hearing most celebrities and what interesting thing happened to them in the past month and we wish that more interviews were like this.

Watch it here.

FX Tries For Another Rock Comedy with Pilot From Denis Leary

Two years ago, FX had Dana Gould and Dave Grohl developing a rock comedy, which we’re really excited about, but ended up not going very far beyond development.

In 2014, a force behind one of their longest running series in Rescue Me, Denis Leary, is taking another crack at a rock comedy in a pilot called Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll.

Perhaps, this one will fare a little better.
