On March 10, 2015, the series was green-lit for an eight-episode season.[1] The series premiered on July 8, 2015, on Comedy Central.[2] The show was meant to provide a look into the host's mind with episodes undertaking social issues through sketches, man on the street interviews, special guests and stand-up in front of a studio audience.[3] In December 2015, Hannibal Buress confirmed the series would not return for a second season.[4] He told the New York Post that "it wasn't the ideal format for me."[5]
