Thursday, February 9th at 10PM, CNN will be taking a break from going toe-to-toe with the POTUS and delving into the comedy through scores of years in America in a new TV special, The History of Comedy.
Also, Larry David will be one of many people weighing in. As you can see in this promo, he’s sure to be a delight.
Unlike many comedy retrospectives these days, they’re going to go all the way back to the Ancient Greeks.
CNN is adding to their comedy offerings from United Shades of America with W. Kamau Bell by making a brand new historical comedy series, The History of Comedy, that will trace the evolution of comedy as an art form over time and in branching out of genres within it.
Look for the series to debut sometime next year.
No word on who will host it or some of the guests that will be interviewed, but we’d be really surprised if Kliph Nesteroff didn’t fit somewhere int his.
