INSIDE COMEDY, the new comedy documentary series from comedy forces comedian David Steinberg ("Curb Your Enthusiasm") and Steve Carell will premiere on Thursday, January 26th at 11 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME. The ten, half-hour episodes feature Steinberg interviewing some of the world's biggest comedians such as Chris Rock, Ellen DeGeneres and Jerry Seinfeld, to comedians of the past five decades such as Mel Brooks, Don Rickles and Jonathan Winters, as they share career-defining moments, personal struggles and the idols that inspired them, in an uncensored and hilarious one-on-one format.

Steinberg will also direct all ten episodes.
