Kevin Hart’s Hartbeat Partners With BET to Bring Back ‘Comic View’ Stand-Up Comedy Showcase

If BET’s Comic View was the highlight of some of your past days, then you’ll be happy to know it is being revived.

Kevin Hart and his entertainment company Hartbeat have joined forces with the Paramount Global network to bring back the stand-up comedy showcase.

“I’m thrilled to partner with BET for the return of ‘Comic View’ as part of Hartbeat Weekend making this can’t-miss celebration of comedy, music, and culture,” Hart said in a statement. “Having hosted ‘Comic View’ in the past, I understand first-hand the incredible platform this franchise offers for comedians to showcase their talents on a national stage and I’m excited to continue that tradition in Las Vegas.”

The series originally aired from 1992 to 2008, then returned with new episodes from 2012-14.

The relaunch is part of a four-day weekend event in Las Vegas celebrating Hart’s 44th birthday, Variety reported.

The comedian is hosting Hartbeat Weekend in Las Vegas from July 6-9.

Mike Epps was tapped to host the all-new episodes of “Comic View,” which will be recorded in front of a live audience during the four-day event with performances by Tommy Davidson, Tacarra Williams, Tony T. Roberts, Bresha Webb, D.C. Young Fly, and rapper Tip “T.I.” Harris.

T.I.’s show will mark his televised stand-up comedy debut.

“We’re excited to partner again with Hartbeat to bring back our culturally iconic franchise ‘Comic View’ during Hartbeat Weekend. Over 30 years ago, ‘Comic View’ set the footprint for stand-up specials and launched the careers of some of today’s mega-comedy stars. We can’t wait to see this new group of talented and rising comedians. We are so proud to work with this all-star production team, including Mike Epps and the impressive roster of talent that will bring you the best comedy you’ll see all year long,” BET president and CEO Scott Mills said.
