ComicView Reunion Set for 2025 BET Experience

BET is bringing the laughs this summer with the return of one of its most beloved comedy staples. The network has officially announced The ComicView Reunion, taking place June 6 and 7 at The Miracle Theatre in Los Angeles as part of BET Experience 2025, presented by SheaMoisture.

Hosted by comedic heavyweights Chris Spencer and Sheryl Underwood, the reunion will feature a powerhouse lineup including fan-favorite Rickey Smiley. The two-night event revives the energy and legacy of ComicView, the iconic BET series that helped launch the careers of some of the biggest names in stand-up. With surprise guests, bold cultural commentary, and a mix of comedy legends and rising stars, it’s shaping up to be one of the most anticipated moments of BET Weekend.

Spencer, a veteran comedian, writer, and producer, brings decades of experience and a reputation for discovering talent, while Underwood, an Emmy-winning host of The Talk, is known for her sharp wit and fearless humor. Add Rickey Smiley’s magnetic presence and storytelling to the mix, and fans can expect a nostalgic yet fresh celebration of Black comedic excellence.

The ComicView Reunion is just one highlight of a stacked BET Experience weekend, which leads into the BET Awards on June 9. The weekend will also include the popular BETX Open Casting Call on June 7, giving aspiring actors a rare opportunity to audition live for BET+ originals like Diarra From Detroit, Carl Weber’s The Family Business, a new Tyler Perry Studios series, and the upcoming Varnell Hill project.

Tickets for The ComicView Reunion are available now at BETExperience.com, where fans can also register for access to other weekend events, including Fan Fest concerts featuring GloRilla, Mario, and Amerie, as well as performances by Pretty Ricky, Keri Hilson, and more.
