WHY? WITH HANNIBAL BURESS
July 8, 2015  | By David Bianculli

Comedy Central, 10:30 p.m. ET

 
SERIES PREMIERE: This new series is produced and put together so closely to its air date that no episode will be available for preview. So prejudging this new series is tricky. On the one hand, it’s a vehicle for Hannibal Buress, whose outspokenness about the allegations surrounding Bill Cosby put that long-simmering issue on boil – and whose Comedy Central appearance at the recent roast of Justin Bieber was hilarious (he told Bieber, to his face, “I hate your music more than Bill Cosby hates my comedy”). On the other hand, promos for Why?, showing Buress vamping in a fake audition to replace Jon Stewart on The Daily Show, weren’t inspired or amusing at all. But we’ll see which Buress we’ll get, beginning tonight. It’s worth a tune-in to find out.
