    Season Three Premieres Tonight and Features Sets From Shaffir and Sal Vulcano

NEW YORK, October 13, 2016 – Comedy Central’s storytelling stand-up series, “This Is Not Happening” will return for a fourth season in 2017, it was announced today by Kent Alterman, President, Comedy Central. Executive produced by Ari Shaffir, Avalon’s Sam Saifer, Jeff Tomsic, who directs, and Eric Abrams also acting as showrunner, the third season premieres ten episodes beginning tonight at midnight ET/PT.

“’This Is Not Happening’ is a great platform for comedians to tell true, personal stories of humiliation, degradation and supreme embarrassment,” said Alterman. “Or put another way…of being human.”

“This season was awesome,” said Shaffir. “We got this amazing mix of legends like Stanhope and Regan, new comics that I love being able to introduce to the public, and returning favorites like Diaz, Siddiq, and Kreischer. Nothing I ever do will be as great as Season 19 of ‘South Park,’ but this is something I’m really proud of. And I can’t wait to start finding new comics with crazy stories for Season four.”

“This Is Not Happening” features Shaffir and his comedian friends telling true-life, long-form stories in front of a live audience at Cheetahs in Hollywood. The third season includes stories from Gastor Almonte, Louie Anderson, Maria Bamford, Greg Behrendt, Lavell Crawford, Joey Diaz, Greg Fitzsimmons, Sean Flannery, Al Jackson, Bert Kreischer, Bobby Lee, Julian McCullough, Bonnie McFarlane, Big Jay Oakerson, Tom Papa, Russell Peters, Steve Rannazzisi, Brian Regan, Rory Scovel, Ali Siddiq, Steve Simeone, Doug Stanhope, Nick Thune, Liza Treyger, Sal Vulcano and Andrew W.K. reliving their favorite, most embarrassing, or funniest true-life tales about mortality, the law, romance, adventure, drugs, family and more! Each episode features a custom open in which Shaffir meets a different gruesome death time and time again – all brought to life by director Tomsic.

The premiere episode, titled “Scumbag,” features stories about encounters with the worst people imaginable from Shaffir and Vulcano. Sometimes those terrible people are themselves. “This Is Not Happening” originally debuted as a digital series on cc.com and the site continues to feature exclusive digital stories from Sofiya Alexandra, Aaron Berg, Pete Johansson, Joe List, Dave Ross, Scruncho, Ryan Sickler and Dan St. Germain throughout the run of new episodes. Anne Harris and Ryan Moran are the Executives in Charge for Comedy Central.
