Comedy / TV / Theater "Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell"—and with Hari Kondabolu—Hits FOX
Posted by Brendan Kiley on Tue, Aug 28, 2012 at 1:17 PM
The hyper-educated, hyper-funny comedian, activist, and occasional Stranger contributor Hari Kondabolu has a new TV show called Totally Biased with his friend W. Kamau Bell. Kondabolu is one of the writers, Bell is the main talker, Chris Rock is the producer, and it's on the FX network every Thursday night after Louie (with Louis C.K.). It's part talk show, part sketch show, part on-the-street interviews and pretty goddamned funny.
A segment about the NYPD's stop-and-frisk policy:
And one about marriage equality:
Even better: the studio bigwigs decided to give Biased a shot on the big network—"the one The Simpsons is on," as Kondabolu put it—this Saturday at midnight.
Your mission is clear: Buy 53 televisions, bribe someone to hook you up with a bunch of those Nielsen TV monitors, and watch the shit out of it this weekend.
