Overview

The program features a well-known stand up comedian as an emcee who introduces four or five lesser known comedians looking for a big break on television. Each comedian presents a short set of jokes, which is edited to last about five minutes on the airing of the show.

Many alumni have gone on to have their own Comedy Central Presents specials, including Mitch Hedberg, Stephen Lynch, Demetri Martin, Dane Cook, B.J. Novak, Darrell Hammond, Mike Birbiglia, Wayne Federman, Daniel Tosh, Gabriel Iglesias, Pete Holmes, and Ron White.

Hosts

Each year the show would get a new comedian to serve as host for each of the season's ten episodes. The hosts were:

  • Kathy Griffin (1997)
  • Jim Breuer (1998)
  • Tommy Davidson (1999)
  • Harland Williams (2000)
  • David Alan Grier (2001)
