TOTALLY BIASED WITH W. KAMAU BELL
August 9, 2012  | By David Bianculli

FX, 11:00 p.m. ET

 
SERIES PREMIERE: Chris Rock is damned smart, and damned funny, about popular culture and race, and he’s the executive producer of this new FX standup comedy series featuring W. Kamau Bell, who is damned smart, and damned funny, on those same topics as well. Like the same network’s BrandX with Russell Brand, this series is performed and taped at the last minute to increase topicality – but grading on a Bell curve, expect a lot more substance, as well as genuine laughs, here. Take, for example, his unforgettable mathematical proof about why black culture can lay claim to country music: “Country Music = The Blues Minus Slavery.”
