There is no down-time in the Showtime Comedy Specials. Almost every day, Showtime showcases a well-known, or up-and-coming comedic personality. Some specials are revivals of comedians who have been on hiatus, but still captivate audiences. Others, are fan favorites with routines that always produce great ratings and continuous laughter. Solo stand-up isn't the only format for Showtime Comedy Specials. World tours, physical shtick, and group collaborations keep live audiences rolling in the aisles, and viewers at home entertained. The list of comedic styles range from family-friendly and ethnocentric, to adults only and boundary-pushing. Whichever special is chosen, the Showtime crew puts the viewer on stage with the featured headlining comedian so not one word, pun, or unique facial expression is missed. Showtime Comedy Specials are movie-length productions created at sold-out theater and studio venues.
