Joel McHale, Aziz Ansari to Headline the New York Comedy Festival

Plus: several comedians who aren’t even part of NBC’s Thursday-night lineup. The New York Comedy Festival just announced this year’s headliners. Appearing at ten different city venues between November 3 and 7 are: Aziz Ansari, Adam Carolla, Margaret Cho, Louis CK, Kevin Hart, Gabriel Iglesias, Luis Jimenez, Maz Jobrani, Joel McHale, Rosie O’Donnell, Brian Regan, and Nick Swardson. “I’m thrilled to give the New York Comedy Festival another try this November,” says McHale in the press release. “To be playing Carnegie Hall is a milestone in the Festival’s misjudgment, but for me it is a dream come true.” Funny and modest.
