Exclusive: Comedy Central is launching the first new original series under ViacomCBS network’s current push in adult animation. Fairview, executive produced by Stephen Colbert and the team behind Paramount+’s Emmy-nominated Tooning Out the News and Showtime’s Our Cartoon President, will debut Feb. 9 at 8:30 pm, following South Park.
Comedy Central in 2020 signaled a programming shift focused on ramping up adult animated content and building an original slate around South Park. The eight-episode Fairview, produced by ViacomCBS sibling CBS Studios, was one of a slew of series ordered, including Daria spinoff Jodie and a Beavis and Butt-Head revival.

Voice talent includes Marina Cockenberg, James Austin Johnson, Aparna Nancherla, Jeremy Levick,...
