Comedy Central is a prominent American cable television channel that focuses on comedy programming. Launched on April 1, 1991, it emerged from the merger of The Comedy Channel and Ha TV Comedy Network. Originally named CTV: The Comedy Network, it was rebranded to Comedy Central shortly after to avoid confusion with a Canadian network. The channel is now owned by Paramount Global, following its acquisition by Viacom in 2003. The network is well-known for its original programming, featuring hit shows like South Park, The Daily Show, and Chappelle's Show. It also showcases stand-up comedy specials from both established and emerging comedians, providing a platform for new talent. In addition to original content, Comedy Central airs reruns of popular sitcoms and comedy series, making it a favorite destination for comedy fans. The channel has significantly influenced American comedy and continues to adapt by incorporating new formats and talent.
