Comedy Central has announced a new late night series with David Spade.
The “Grown Ups” and “Dickie Roberts” star will lead a new 11:30 p.m. series featuring his signature take on the pop culture news of the day. The yet-to-be-titled nightly series will include a rotating group of Spade’s comedian and celebrity friends, while also incorporating field segments that mirror his popular Instagram stories. The show will follow ”The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” on Monday through Thursday nights starting later this year. The show is executive produced by Spade, Alex Murray and Marc Gurvitz. Brad Wollack and Tom Brunelle of Free 90 Media serve as executive producers and showrunners.
In addition, the network announced the return of “Crank Yankers”, the world’s favorite profane puppets that prank on phones, social media, e-sport platforms and any venue where trouble can be made.
The series, running for 10 episodes in this first batch of eps, will be produced by Jimmy Kimmel’s newly formed production banner KIMMELOT.
