Can I Kick It? first came around in the glorious days of Nerdmelt @ Meltdown (RIP). It was a comedy show the hysterically dissected hip-hop by riffing on music videos, revisiting “out there” deep cuts, and even live rap battles.

Hosts, all great comedians and hip-hop aficionados, Tone Bell, Al Jackson, and Joe DeRosa will be bringing all of this and more to Hollywood American Legion Post 43 (2035 N Highland Ave.) this Sat., Jul. 20th at 8:30PM.

Tickets are only $10 and you can (and should) pick them up here.

Andrew Santino, Andy Woodhull, Barry Rothbart, Beth Stelling, Brooks Wheelan, Hampton Yount…

…Joe List, Liza Treyger, Michelle Buteau, Phil Hanley, Randy Liedtke, Sam Morril, Sean Donnelly, and Tone Bell will be your line-up for this year’s round of half hour stand-up specials on Comedy Central’s The Half Hour.

There you have it folks. You’ve probably seen many of these great comics recently on late night talk shows, panel shows all over cable, viral videos, in various roles on sitcoms, web series, and on SNL for a season, but now you can finally watch them in more than 3-5 minute increments.

You’ll be able to catch these specials either being taped in Boston as Comedy Central usually does or on Comedy Central much later in 2015.

(via The Hollywood Reporter)

FX’s latest addition to their development slate, they’ve picked up a script from comedians Tone Bell and Mark Agee for a sitcom following four guys from different backgrounds trying to live in peace.

There isn’t any word whether this would head towards FX or FXx or whether it’ll be single camera or multi-cam (with this premise, either could work), but we’re glad to hear that Bell and Agee have their own project possibly coming up for pilot season.

The very funny Tone Bell and Shane Mauss both got to perform stand-up last night on late night talk shows. See their sets on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson where Bell got called over to the couch and Conan where Mauss got a nice amount of applause breaks.
