October 03, 2008 : Watch Russell!

On Saturday, October 4th, watch Russell as he performs on The Secret Policeman's Ball - the annual benefit for Amnesty International. Russell recorded his segment during his performance on September 20th in Kitchener, Ontario.

If you can't be at The Royal Albert Hall (just like Russell couldn't be there), you can watch the star-studded comedy special at theatres across the UK and North America.

 

June 06, 2008 : Chris Rock's Brother Has a New Project

This fall, audiences can see the other Rock family talent in his own show: MyNetworkTV's The Tony Rock Project, a reality-comedy series. Also known as Chris Rock's younger brother, Tony has appeared in a number of shows and movies, but he's getting center stage with the new gig.

In the Project, Tony Rock will conduct man-on-the-street interviews, use hidden cameras and other types of segments to shed some light, Borat-style, on society's quirks, hang-ups and stereotypes. The series comes from MyNetwork vets C to the B (who brought us Flavor Flav's Under One Roof) and Langley Productions (Jail, COPS), and will air Wednesdays at 8:30 pm/ET.

Will the younger Rock keep audiences laughing? Does the format have potential, or sound played-out? — Anna Dimond
