LOS ANGELES, CA –
Diverging from its traditional slate of sketch and situational comedy, tonight’s
episode of Key & Peele will make fun of the differences between black people and white people. “We wanted to try something totally new,” explained Keegan-Michael Key, who stars alongside Jordan Peele in the Comedy Central segment that
airs Wednesdays at 9:30CT. The African-American comedians have noticed that
their lives can sometimes deviate from those of their white counterparts. “We
talk differently; we behave differently; and we have very different cultures.
We feel that it would be amusing to emphasize those disparities in a comedic
fashion.” “But it’s more than that,” Mr. Peele added. “Throughout history,
whites and blacks have had their challenges, and we both believe that making
light of those variances might create a catharsis, if you will, by allowing
people to laugh at and yet celebrate their very diverse backgrounds. As far as
we know, it’s never been done before.” Following the groundbreaking episode,
Comedy Central will air a brand new Daily Show that will feature Jon Stewart
humiliating Fox News.
They might show how men and women are different too. |
