XM Launches Original Comedy Interview Show 'Unmasked'
New Series Kicks Off September 22 with Comedic Icon George Carlin
WASHINGTON, Sept. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- XM, the nation's leading satellite radio service with more than 8.2 million subscribers, today announced the launch of "Unmasked," a new, original comedy series that will feature one-on-one interviews with some of the most talked about names in comedy. Comedic legend George Carlin will be the inaugural guest when "Unmasked" premieres exclusively on XM Saturday, September 22 at 8 p.m. ET.
"Whenever I do an in-depth interview like this, I'm surprised that I learn things about myself and my work I hadn't realized before. It always opens my eyes," said George Carlin.
Recorded before a live studio audience, "Unmasked" offers up candid, one- on-one interviews with both established and emerging comedic talent for an uncensored look into their creative process and the lives that shape their comedy.
In addition to being the series premiere, the "Unmasked: George Carlin" episode will also be featured in the upcoming George Carlin career retrospective DVD box set, George Carlin: All My Stuff, which will be released September 25. The 14-disc collection includes Carlin's full "Unmasked" interview, filmed live in the Performance Theater at XM's Washington, D.C. studios.
"We at XM are thrilled that George Carlin, celebrating his 50th year in comedy, will be the first guest as we launch this new thought-provoking show that offers an inside look into some of today's most compelling comedic minds," said Eric Logan, executive vice president, programming for XM. "Since XM became the first to offer the 24-hour uncensored comedy format anywhere on radio, our comedy programming has grown from mere concept to include original shows like 'Unmasked' and five dedicated comedy channels with some of the strongest listenership on the platform."
The series premiere of "Unmasked" with George Carlin debuts Saturday, September 22 at 8 p.m. ET on "XM Comedy" (XM 150), with new episodes of "Unmasked" airing every other Saturday. Future episodes of "Unmasked" will feature Jeff Garlin, Jim Norton, Patrice Oneal, Bob Saget, Brian Regan, Carlos Mencia and others. Additional programming information and encore schedules are available online at http://www.xmradio.com/unmasked.
XM's programming lineup features five dedicated comedy channels that offer a range of round-the-clock comic programming - uncensored comedy on "XM Comedy" (XM 50), family comedy on "Laugh USA" (XM 151), Canadian comedy on "Laugh Attack" (XM 153), short-form sketch comedy, standup and satire on "National Lampoon™ Comedy Radio" (XM 154) and irreverent comedy and talk from Opie and Anthony and Ron and Fez on High Voltage (XM 202). XM also offers other original comedy programming, including "Stand Up Sit Down," which features long-form interviews and stand-up routines from a who's who of comedians, including Lewis Black, George Carlin, John Cleese, Dane Cook, Bill Cosby, Jim Gaffigan, Gilbert Gottfried, Mitch Hedberg, Robert Klein, Larry the Cable Guy, Richard Lewis, Kathleen Madigan, Paul Mooney, Ron White and many others.

i dont share your confidence given that they didnt mention sonny fox in this one.
looks like the standard XM move of focusing entirely on celebrities with the broadest appeal

yea, when I got the weekly email for XM events, I actually had to find it, they aren't really advertize it a lot. Also, I haven't heard a single commerical for Unmasked. I mean, I've heard a shitload of Stand Up, Sit Down stuff for Lewis Black or something like that.
I wonder who they're going to handle the videos of Unmasked. Streaming??

No mention at all on the other XM channels, if it weren't for Ron and Fez I wouldn't know unmasked existed. If XM bags Ron and Fez when that fuck’em merger goes through I am going to shit-can :flush:my XM satellite of love and just wait to see where they resurface. Ron and Fez are the best, I love that show, and Fez has been on fire this week (Ronnie is always great!)
SEEYA!

i had thought of that. i'm thinking it was because he only did the one. if it wasn't carlin i wouldn't have been shocked if they just ditched that interview altogether.

QFT ( and made me giggle like an intern flirting w/the "muslim temptress")
BTW: RE: the Newhart announcement; imo his "button-down" series ( i have a few from "Warner archives") would probably be appreciated by many R+F fans.
Even tho i never liked his ~80s TV show (the Inn, Daryl,Daryl,... )and can only faintly recall his "classic" psych series; the cd's are bloody brilliant.

Unmasked on XM
Saturdays | 8PM ET | XM Comedy - XM 150
Sundays | 2PM ET | The Virus - XM 202
Encores:
Tuesdays | 3AM ET | XM Comedy - XM 150
Wednesdays | 10PM ET | XM Comedy - XM 150
Featured Performances
Carlos Mencia Sat, 10/6 | XM Comedy - XM 150 Sun, 10/7 | The Virus - XM 202
One of the most talked-about personalities in comedy today, Carlos Mencia is always in the thick of things. He's got his own TV show on Comedy Central, he's starring with Ben Stiller in The Heartbreak Kid, and this week he spends an hour with Ron Bennington being brutally honest about everything from stolen jokes to saved lives. You REALLY get inside the Mind of Mencia on this week's Unmasked.

It probably is Mencia. The announced schedule was that there would be a new Unmasked every two weeks, so there won't be another new one until next weekend.
