Comedy Central is quickly becoming Ari Shaffir Central. Ari has his third project this year coming to Comedy Central on Friday, March 13th. It’s the premiere of his new comedy special, “Ari Shaffir: Passive Aggressive”.
“Passive Aggressive” follows up Ari Shaffir’s January stand up special, “Paid Regular” and the launch of his comedy series, the television version of his popular story telling stage show “This Is Not Happening with Ari Shaffir”.
The new special features all new material from Ari about how we are all thinking things that we are not saying out loud. Comedy Central calls Ari Shaffir: Passive Aggressive “an act of defiance against responsibility”. It’s Ari talking about things like why do we even bother talking to people we don’t like, how it’s not a good idea for married people to live together and the key to happiness in the life. Spoiler Alert! It involves being naked and eating Chinese food.
While his “Paid Regular” special was filmed on the West coast in the Original Room at the legendary Comedy Store in Los Angeles. For “Passive Aggressive” Ari is back East. The new one hour was taped at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn, New York in front of a live audience.
“Ari Shaffir: Passive Aggressive” premieres on Friday, March 13th at 12am et on Comedy Central. It will also be available on the 13th on CC: Stand Up Direct.
