The veteran comedian and actor will be bringing a sketch comedy show starring an up-and-comer to Comedy Central
hris Rock has thankfully
returned to the television industry, this time with a more
behind-the-scenes role. Rock will be serving as executive producer on an
upcoming Comedy Central sketch comedy series entitled "D-Raw." The series will center on Deshawn Raw --- an up-and-coming comedian whose YouTube
rap battle parodies have garnered millions of views --- along with his
eclectic group of friends as they use art to imitate their life
experiences.
Raw, who will also serve as co-producer of the series, brought in his
creative partner to direct the pilot, which has already been greenlit by
Comedy Central. Given Rock's extensive network and reputation, it's
also likely that a few comedy pro's will have cameo appearances on the
show. No word yet as to when the pilot will air.
