Pros: Great programming that features incredible originals and modern day classics.
Cons: Fighting robots and less-than-blockbuster movies.
Summary: Being a certified “Couch Potato”, I tend to flip through a number of channels, and after clicking through 70+ networks in a matter of seconds, I always seem to land on one station: Comedy Central, possibly the greatest channel in the world. What other ... read more

Pros: Daily Show, Colbert Report, Fri-Sat nite stand-up, Reno911, Chappelle Show, "Secret Stash" feature movies.
Cons: Lots of repeats, some may find content very offensive on certain shows.
Summary: I'm fairly certain that everyone in the U.S. has at least heard of Comedy Central, if not watched one or two of the many movies, specials, or other programs that the network airs. One show in particular has brought recognition to the network, a show by ... read more

Pros: Funny TV Shows
Cons: So many reruns
Summary: I first started watching Comedy Central back a long time ago. At first I thought it was boring, but after about a year of viewing and new TV shows, I changed my mind and thought it was the greatest, most hilarious channel ever. Comedy Central features ... read more

Summary: My husband found this show and I have to admit, I'm addicted to it! Pop trivia at it's ultimate finest!!! Geeks for each category: Movies, T.V. and Music, and a featured Geek each week!

Pros: Geekdom at its best!
Cons: Can you handle this much geek?
Summary: The cable channel that has been known to push the envelope time and time again has now made it hip to be square. That's right! Comedy Central, the channel that makes it cool to cut the cheese (South Park), brings you a blast from the ... read more

Pros: Lots of hilarious programming
Cons: A few bad shows
Summary: I had trouble getting to sleep on the night of September 11. I tried, but I just could not get those awful images out of my head. I got up, took a walk, talked to some friends, and finally, sat in front of the TV. I turned immediately to Comedy ... read more

Pros: comedy: original programming, old movies and SNLs, standup: it's funny
Cons: they tend to replay their programming alot
Summary: The name says it all... Comedy Central. You have got to love this station. They have skillfully added a melting pot of their own self-produced shows, old movies, and repeat comedy performances and old TV shows.
The variety of programming ... read more

Pros: Strangers With Candy
Cons: Ben Stein, The "Man" Show, Battlebots
Summary: I can't really think very highly of a network that would cancel "Strangers with Candy." The show is a comic gem, a true sarcastic masterpiece. The humor is pretty high-brow, I guess -- that's why you see many of the 17-year-old boys on this site knocking ... read more

Pros: The Daily Show Correspondents are the greatest!
Cons: John Stewart and all the other shows are weak.
Summary: Stephen Colbert, Steve Carell, and Vance Degeneres are some of the funniest guys on TV right now and i don't think they are getting enough attention. They deliver their jokes in a truly original manner that can be appreciated by most people. For ... read more

Pros: Sports Night is a well written, thought provoking, laugh machine
Cons: only 45 episodes were done before Aaron Sorkin left for West Wing
Summary: While Comedy Central has other shows that I frequently watch, this review will only discuss Sports Night.
Sports Night may in fact be one of the best shows ever on television that fell through the cracks because of a bad time slot or ... read more

Pros: I'm beginning to think that Parker and Stone might just pull this off.
Cons: I don't know what's become of TV Funhouse.
Summary: Robert Smigel's TV Funhouse used to be the show that aired on Comedy Central immediately following South Park. Although I think Smigel's cartoons can become tedious, I will confess to having seen an episode of Funhouse that had me ... read more

Pros: Comedy Central shows programs that are both innovative and timeless.
Cons: Begging us to watch not only isn't pretty, but it's infuriating.
Summary: I am not one to go off on a full-tilt rant, at least not often. When something makes me angrier than being on hold for computer tech support, however, the “Hell hath no fury” principle kicks in and I start thinking of all the things I can kill. Thanks ... read more

Pros: Sick sick sick!
Cons: Your jaw may be sore from dropping so often.
Summary: What do you get when you combine a really cocky rooster, a pipe-prone turtle, a tail-obsessed dog, a poop-feasting pooch, an overly-square Captain Kangaroo wannabe, and some sick cartoons? You get TV Funhouse.

Pros: Diffrent genres of comedy for all diffrent tastes.
Cons: Clipped SNL reruns aren't really rotated that much.
