Comedian and TV star Hasan Minhaj is on tour for his comedy Off With His Head since September and the tour is expanding into June & July now with more venues and dates added. Hasan Minhaj is as fearless as ever in his entertaining new stand-up show. With his signature irreverent wit, he tackles controversy head-on — from politics to immigration to parenting. The Emmy and Peabody-winning comedian is best known for his Netflix series Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj. He previously served as a correspondent on The Daily Show with both Jon Stewart and Trevor Noah. His comedy specials Homecoming King and The King's Jester are currently on Netflix.
One of the new June additions is in New Jersey. Hasan Minhaj is returning to New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) in Newark, NJ with this comedy night on Saturday, June 15 at 7PM. Tickets are now on sale. Don't miss your chance to experience this amazing comedy tour by purchasing tickets at NJPAC.org, calling 888.GO.NJPAC (888.466.5722) or by visiting the NJPAC Box Office.

Comedy Central announced a 10-episode order of Golden Axe, a new animated series based on the popular Sega video game series, featuring a star-studded cast including Emmy(R) award winner Matthew Rhys, Danny Pudi, Lisa Gilroy, Liam McIntyre and Carl Tart. The series is produced by CBS Studios in association with Sony Pictures Television and Original Film. In a hilarious and loving homage to Sega's 1989 video game series, Golden Axe follows veteran warriors Ax Battler, Tyris Flare and Gilius Thunderhead as they once again battle to save Yuria from the evil giant Death Adder who just won't seem to stay dead. Fortunately, this time they have the inexperienced and underprepared Hampton Squib on their side.
Matthew Rhys (The Americans, Perry Mason, Brothers and Sisters) will play Gilius Thunderhead, a grumpy battle dwarf with exceptionally poor hygiene and a chip on his shoulder. Danny Pudi (Mythic Quest, Community) as Hampton Squib, a naive, inexperienced first time adventurer who has dreamt of questing his entire life. He hopes his can-do attitude can make up for his inability to actually do stuff. Lisa Gilroy (Jury Duty, Interior Chinatown) as Tyris Flare, a fearsome battle sorceress, deadly in a fight and even deadlier with her sharp wit. Liam McIntyre (Spartacus, The Flash) as Ax Battler, a barbarian warrior with a strict code of honor and sweet golden retriever demeanor. His brawn outweighs his brains, but his heart outweighs his brawn. Carl Tart (Grand Crew, Star Trek: Lower Decks) as Chronos "Evil" Lait, originally from Golden Axe III, is a 100% badass humanoid panther. At least that's how Chronos describes himself. In reality he's uncomfortably cheesy and can't read a room. Fans can anticipate plenty of exciting cameos from the world of Golden Axe.
