Based on Hughley's life, the comedy will follow Hughley at home and as a radio host.

Stand-up comedian Hughley stars in his 5th stand-up comedy special "D.L. Hughley: Reset." In addition, Hughley's first humorous book title, "I Want You to Shut the F*ck Up," is out in bookstores. Hughley also created and starred in the satirical documentary special for Comedy Central "D.L. Hughley: The Endangered List," which premiered in October, and has been honored by the Television Academy and with a prestigious Peabody Award.

Hughley served as host of his own late night talk show on CNN, "D.L. Hughley Breaks the News." He is a regular on the late night talk show circuit, including always-memorable appearances on "Real Time with Bill Maher," "Ellen: The Ellen Degeneres Show," "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," and "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno."
