Comicview is a showcase for African-American comics on the Black Entertainment cable network. Some of the humor can be raunchy, but because BET is a basic cable network, the comedians can't get as raw as they did on HBO's Def Comedy Jam. Each season a new host takes over the MC duties (after having won a contest for the best Comicview comedian of that year), and usually, that person goes on to better things once their stint is over. D.L. Hughley, Steve Harvey, Bernie Mac and Cedric The Entertainer are all now famous comics who have made appearances on this show. Early on, Comicview used to also show an outrageous soap opera called "Ain't Nothin' But A Woman" about Miss Laura (Laura Haynes) who ran a hotel filled with crazy employees and guests, as well as numerous filmed skits that were shown before the commercial breaks. These days, R&B, hip-hop and rap acts appear frequently at the end of the episodes.
