"Brody Stevens: Enjoy It!"
Midnight - 1:00 a.m. (Season-Finale Episodes) "Boston Me Party" and "Born in the Valley, Hollywood Finale"
Tune in for Comedy Central's first-ever dramatic comedy series, "Brody Stevens: Enjoy It!" following the emotional-rollercoaster life of stand-up comic Brody Stevens, one of the funniest comedians you've never heard of. The camera tracks Stevens as he pulls his life back together after suffering a mental breakdown that is witnessed by the world via Twitter.
After spending time in the UCLA
Psych ward, Stevens is back on his meds and trying to mend his relationships as well as revive his career. In this week's back-to-back season-finale episodes, "Boston Me Party" and "Born in the Valley, Hollywood Finale," Brody travels to Boston to shoot his half-hour
Comedy Central special and interviews 17 other comedians who are there to tape their own specials. He then dates a new lady friend and takes a trip to Miami, and also invites family, friends, and guests from previous episodes to a rooftop birthday party.
