Bill Cosby Set for Comedy Central Special

NEW YORK: Bill Cosby’s first televised concert in 30 years, Far From Finished, produced by Levity Productions, is slated to air on Comedy Central in the U.S. this November.

The special will feature material from Cosby’s performance at the Cerritos Performing Arts Center earlier this summer. It will be directed by Robert Townsend and exec-produced by Darryl M. Bell, Judi Marmel, Robert Hartmann and Stu Schreiberg. It is slated to premiere November 24.

Cosby’s last televised concert was Bill Cosby Himself. His other TV credits include I Spy and Fat Albert and The Cosby Kids, but he remains best known for the long-running hit Carsey-Werner Television sitcom The Cosby Show. Cosby has received the Kennedy Center Honors, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor and the Marian Anderson Award.
