What happens when an Indian, a Scot and a comic all walk into a bar? Join COMEDY CENTRAL for the premiere of Scotland's favorite Indian comedian, Danny Bhoy, and get his take on bagpipes, why he acts like a Frenchman when he's in America and the reason behind his intense love of accents.

"Dan Cummins: Crazy with a Capital F" - World Television Premiere

Saturday, 3/13 at 11:00 p.m.

Live from his current hometown of Spokane, Washington, the quirky Dan Cummins performs his uniquely cynical brand of observational humor for a sold-out crowd. Join Dan as he explores the joys of drunk-gifting yourself, the absurdity of iPod vending machines and the perils of the "Tooth Gremlin."

"The United Nations of COMEDY CENTRAL"

Saturday, 3/6 from 8:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.

"South Park's Hidden Identity"

Tuesday, 3/9 from 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.

In a judgmental town like South Park, it's not always safe to be yourself. Super heroes, super villains, spies and demons must all pose as mild-mannered citizens in order to protect their greater efforts.

"South Park Marathon" (working title)

Sunday, 3/14 from 9:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.

Vicious monsters and diabolical aliens may inhabit planets in the alternate universes of "Futurama," but that hasn't stopped them from visiting the small American town of South Park. Stop by everybody's favorite city in Colorado this Sunday night for some close encounters of the funny kind.

"South Park's Ultimate Fighter"

Tuesday, 3/23 from 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.

The best fights this year won't happen in any ring or eight-sided cage. Viewers won't see them on YouTube or in Tiger Woods's driveway, either, because they're all on COMEDY CENTRAL tonight! Check out the four best fights in cartoon history with "South Park's Ultimate Fighter."

"Saturday Night Fights" (working title)

Saturday, 3/27 from 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.

Are viewers ready to rummmmmble?? COMEDY CENTRAL's getting a little bit tougher: forget the dangers of seedy comedy clubs and heckling fans, because the network is pitting comic against comic in a knock-out, no-holds-barred death match. Watch comics like Joe Rogan and Carlos Mencia or Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy settle old scores and create new wounds every Saturday night.

"Grudge Match"

Saturday, 3/27 from 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.

It's opening night, and Ned "Carlos" Mencia faces the mighty Joe "Fear Factor" Rogan in an epic battle of vengeance. Rogan may have accused Mencia of plagiarism but tonight Mencia will take the first swing with his hour-long comedy special, "Performance Enhanced" at 9:00 p.m. But does "Men-steal-ia," as Rogan calls him, have what it takes to suppress Rogan's powerful blows? Find out at 10:00 p.m., with the Network Television Premiere of Rogan's "Talking Monkeys in Space."

"South Park Gets Punked"

Tuesday, 3/30 from 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.

Pranks are fun�Unless, of course, Eric Cartman is the one doing the pranking. Whether he's dressed as a robot or putting balls in his mouth, there's no denying that Ashton Kutcher's got nothing on Cartman. Watch the most dangerous kid in town take it way too far when "South Park Gets Punked."
