This should please fans of his show…

I haven’t been a regular watcher of W. Kamau Bell’s series on FX; I did watch a few of the early episodes, and wasn’t immediately hooked on his style. And with so much else competing for my time, I never really returned to it. 

I’ve caught a few clips from the show here and there, usually when friends share on Facebook or Twitter share. And I’d say that I probably appreciate his interview segments with guests more than his stand-up routine.
But no matter, I’m happy for the brotha, and glad to see that the show continues to blossom, and attract attention. And a hat-tip to Chris Rock for giving him a chance.
I’ll start to work my way back into the series, especially in light of recent news that FX promoted the show from a weekly to a nightly series on its spin-off network, FXX, scheduled to launch this fall, and also, today’s news that the series scored its best ratings ever on May 30.
When it returns this fall to a nightly program, it’ll be going directly up against The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, at 11pm, every night. 
The ratings details via press release from FX:
