Netflix announces new stand-up specials

There’s always been a ton of good stand-up on Netflix, and as of late they’ve even started producing their own specials, like Aziz Ansari’s great Buried Alive. The streaming service has just announced which specials it will soon be adding, and it’s a pretty good list:

Chelsea Handler, title and date TBA

Jim Jefferies, BARE  (August 29)

Chelsea Peretti, One of the Greats (November 14)

Bill Burr, I’m Sorry You Feel That Way (December 4)

Bill Cosby, Bill Cosby 77 (November 28)

Wow, that’s four great comedians and Chelsea Handler! If you haven’t done so already, go watch Bill Burr’s Let It Go, Why Do I Do This, and You People Are All the Same. Also, they have two Chelseas, two Bills, but only one Jim. What was Jim Gaffigan doing that kept him too busy to uphold the symmetry? Ruining jokes by over-using that high-pitched voice he’s so reliant upon? It’s probably that.

Thanks to Vulture for the heads up.
