John Oliver’s New York Stand Up Show is a comedy show from Comedy Central, hosted by John Oliver, correspondent and Emmy Award-winning writer for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Oliver, who has also won myriad other awards from the world of comedy, presents both well-established and up-and-coming comics as they take the stage to present new material and keep the crowd in stitches. The Daily Show star takes his fake air of arrogance and Brit-living-in-America perspective from Jon Stewart’s set and gets a chance to shine as the solo host of the special. Oliver opens each of the episodes with a small routine, then introduces four stand-up guests over the course of the hour-long show. Some of the featured comics include Pete Holmes, Janeane Garofalo, Eugene Mirman, Maria Bamford, Brian Posehn, Nick Kroll, Greg Fitzsimmons, and many more. John Oliver’s New York Stand Up Show premiered in January 2010.MORE
