The first four episodes of Funny AF with Kevin Hart are now available to stream on Netflix. What do we know about Kevin Hart’s new Netflix show?
Funny AF with Kevin Hart is a comedy competition series hosted by Hart as he searches for the next comedy star from a line-up of rising stand-up comedians coming from New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago. The contestants are also judged by comedic actors Keegan-Michael Key, Tom Segura, Kumail Nanjiani, Chelsea Handler, and Nikki Glaser. Episodes 5-6 will be dropping on April 27.
Meanwhile, the semi-final (Episode 7) and finale (Episode 8) will premiere live on Netflix at 6 PM PT/9 PM ET on May 4 and May 5, respectively. “Kevin Hart knows what it takes to turn a mic and a dream into comedy superstardom. In Funny AF, he’s searching for the next comedian ready to follow that path.
In this uncensored comedy competition, rising stand-ups from across the country step into the spotlight, hoping to make the same leap Kevin once did from grinding it out in small clubs to headlining their own specials,” reads the official synopsis. “Along the way, Kevin and a circle of comedy heavyweights will decide who progresses in the competition, offering a behind-the-curtain look at the pressure, triumphs, and occasional bombs that shape a career in stand-up. The mission is simple: find the next great voice in comedy with the guts, perspective, and punchlines to become the next household name.
The competition builds to live final rounds where a global vote will determine the ultimate winner.” Funny AF hails from showrunners Bill Dixon, Liz Cook, San Heng, and Jason Raff. This marks the latest collaboration between Hart and Netflix. Executive producers are Hart, Jane Lipsitz, Dan Cutforth, Nan Strait, Dan Volpe, Luke Kelly-Clyne, Meghan Hoffman, Jeff Clanagan, and Jenny Groom. It is a production by Hartbeat and Alfred Street Industries.
