Comedy Central: Difference between revisions

Comedy Central is a [[Networks|network]] on U.S. cable/satellite TV, created by a merger between Viacom's HA! and Time Warner's Comedy Channel in the early 1990s. [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|It tends to have a lot of comedy shows and movies]], including [[Stand Up Comedy]] showcases, [[Sit ComSitcom|sitcoms]] and [[Sketch Comedy]]. Their content includes reruns from other channels (such as ''[[Scrubs]]'' and more recently, ''[[ItsIt's Always Sunny in Philadelphia]]''), but most of their best-known shows are originals. It has thus far successfully avoided even coming close to [[Network Decay]] (unlike MTV, Cartoon Network, and A&E have in recent years), at least partly because comedy is such a broad topic (though it has come under fire for airing 'comedy' shows that rely on shock value to be funny, like ''Mind of Mencia'' <ref>though that show is now treated as an [[Old Shame]] and Mencia himself is the butt of many jokes</ref>, ''[[Mad TV]]'' reruns <ref>especially by viewers who were used to seeing ''Saturday Night Live'' reruns on Comedy Central</ref>, and the Comedy Central [[The Roast|Roasts]] after the one honoring Pamela Anderson)
