Netflix announces new stand-up specials from Iliza Shlesinger, Bo Burnham, and more

Not content to just let Hannibal Buress take over the whole platform, Netflix has announced a new batch of stand-up comedy specials that will start streaming later this year. They come from a pretty wide range of comics, including Jim Jefferies, Bo Burnham, Ali Wong, and Iliza Shlesinger, but the biggest draw—probably not for you, but for a ton of people who aren’t you—is a two-man show from Jeff Foxworthy and Larry The Cable Guy. That special, titled We’ve Been Thinking…, will feature both comics doing separate sets before moving onto a Q&A with the audience that the press release refers to as “a show stopping encore” (either because it’s really good or because they literally end the show with it).

The list of new stand-up specials, along with their premiere dates, is below:

Ali Wong: Baby Cobra—May 6, 2016

Bo Burnham: Make Happy—June 3, 2016

Jim Jefferies: Freedumb—July 1, 2016

Jeff Foxworthy And Larry The Cable Guy: We’ve Been Thinking—August 26, 2016

Iliza Shlesinger: Confirmed Kills—September 23, 2016
