Facing fresh competition from the launch of Comedy Central in Australia via FetchTV, The Comedy Channel on Foxtel is stepping up its game promoting the fact its airing more award-winning comedies, more local and international stand-up, and more Express from the US hit shows delivered to Foxtel homes than ever before.
The Comedy Channel will now have to share broadcast rights for much of its Comedy Central content with its new Fetch TV rival.
In addition to Comedy Central’s The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Workaholics, Tosh.0, Broad City, and many other series airing Express from the US or within just a few days of US broadcast, the latest instalment of Inside Amy Schumer Season 4 will launch Same Day Express on Fridays from April 22 at 8.30pm.
Straight from Amy Schumer’s provocative and hilariously wicked mind, Inside Amy Schumer explores sex, relationships and the general idiocy that is life with sketches, stand-up comedy, cameo performances, and woman-on-the-street interviews. Executive produced by Schumer, Dan Powell and Jessi Klein, the series has been awarded many titles including winning two Primetime Emmy Awards in 2015.
The Comedy Channel is currently airing series from Comedy Central, HBO, FX and more. The Comedy Channel is the only place to watch HBO’s award-winning weekly satirical current affairs program Last Week Tonight with John Oliver airing Mondays at 7pm Express from the US, as well as HBO’s Silicon Valley Season 3 which launches Tuesday April 26 at 8.30pm Express from the US.
The Comedy Channel is also filming events from the Melbourne and Sydney Comedy Festivals to create stand up series, and also regularly screens stand up specials from the best talent across the globe.
We’ve got your favourites Who’s Line Is It Anyway?, Archer, Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, The Big Bang Theory, and South Park, as well as new comedies Animals, Baskets, Another Period and more all in one place.
The Comedy Channel content is available on Foxtel Go and Foxtel Anytime* so you can watch on multiple devices, whenever it suits.
