Several well-known comedians have stepped up to judge the Netflix comedy competition, Funny AF with Kevin Hart.
Keegan-Michael Key, Tom Segura, Kumail Nanjiani, Chelsea Handler and Nikki Glaser are confirmed for the show, which will premiere with four episodes on April 20.
Episodes 5 and 6 will air on April 27 and the last two episodes will stream live May 4 and 5.
The winner will be awarded their own Netflix stand-up special.
“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,” a press release said.
“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. 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.”
