Comedy Central Summer 2015 Schedule; Sitcom Stars on Talk Shows (Week of May 25, 2015)

Comedy Central

Comedy Central has the perfect escape from the heat this summer. The coming months promise a sizzling lineup highlighted by the series premieres of Another Period, which follows the insanely ridiculous and debaucherous life of Newport, RI's first family, and Why? With Hannibal Buress, featuring Buress' hilariously brilliant off-beat perspective on every topic in the zeitgeist. The summer months also bring new episodes of Key & Peele and Tosh.0, new seasons of Drunk History, Review and The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail, and all-new Comedy Central Original Specials from Natasha Leggero, Jeff Ross, Bridget Everett and Nick Swardson. Another Period will premiere Tuesday, June 23 at 10:30pm. Before others claimed their fame, there was one American family that stood for all that was spoiled, shameless and stupid. Meet the Bellacourts - Newport, RI's first family of the Gilded Age. They are The Original Ballers. They have tons of money, live in a big-ass mansion and employ a whole team of Fonzworth Bentleys. However, the Bellacourts' servants have to do a lot more than hold umbrellas. The original out of touch reality family is coming to Comedy Central in Another Period, a turn-of-the-century historical and satirical scripted series that follows the insanely ridiculous and debaucherous life of the Bellacourts, who have more servants than relatives and whose days are filled with money, sex, drugs and more money. Another Period centers on the Bellacourt sisters, Lillian (Natasha Leggero) and Beatrice (Riki Lindhome), who only care about being rich and becoming super famous (which is a lot harder in 1902). Lauren Ash, Michael Ian Black, Paget Brewster, Beth Dover, Brett Gelman, Christina Hendricks, Brian Huskey, David Koechner, Jason Ritter, David Wain and Armen Weitzman will appear alongside Leggero and Lindhome.

Other summer dates include: The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail (Tuesday, June 30 12:30am); Key & Peele (Wednesday, July 8 10pm); Why? With Hannibal Buress (Wednesday, July 8 10:30pm); Review (Thursday, July 30 10pm); Tosh.0 (Tuesday, Aug. 25 10pm); and Drunk History (Tuesday, Sept. 1 10:30pm). And finally as far as original comedy specials go... Nick Swardson: Taste It (Saturday, May 30 10pm); Jeff Ross Roasts Criminals: Live at Brazos County Jail (Saturday, June 13 11pm); Bridget Everett Original Stand-up Special (title and premiere date TBA) and Natasha Leggero Original Stand-up Special (title and premiere date TBA).
