Pablo Francisco brings audiences to boisterous laughter in his one-hour, World Premiere Stand-Up Special titled "Pablo Francisco: They Put It Out There," debuting Saturday, November 5 at 11:00 p.m. ET/PT on COMEDY CENTRAL.

Filmed at the Margaret A. Webb Theatre in Santa Ana, CA, Francisco weaves together an arsenal of characters, spontaneous outbursts and clever insight to highlight the social truths of the late night club scene, techno DJs and impromptu dance-offs. In his second one-hour special to air on COMEDY CENTRAL, Francisco combines his sharp wit and rhetoric to propel the audience through his views on owning hybrid cars, qualifying for the Porno awards and what it would be like growing up with midget parents.

Francisco is not a stranger to COMEDY CENTRAL fans. His first one-hour special, "OUCH!" debuted in 2006 and he has also appeared on "COMEDY CENTRAL Presents," "The Show Biz Show with David Spade" and "Mind of Mencia." Additionally, he has been seen on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," Fox's "Mad TV," TBS's "Frank TV" and Howard Stern's "Howard 100." In 2001 and 2002, he toured as part of "The Three Amigos" with Carlos Mencia and Freddy Soto. Francisco has done multiple tours in over a dozen countries across Europe and in South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. His global fan base has put his MySpace Comedy page within the top 25 out of 33,000, placing it in the top three most visited on the site and his outrageous laugh-getting material has hooked over 75 million viewers on YouTube. Francisco has been nominated for Comedian of the Year by the American Comedy Awards.

"Pablo Francisco: They Put It Out There" was executive produced by Francisco, Judi Brown-Marmel, Robert Hartmann, Stephen Kroopnick and Stu Schreiberg and was directed by Manny Rodriguez.
