Introduction

The Monito is back with a new list of TV shows to watch out for in 2013. The TV shows from Comedy Central, TBS, and Adult Swim have something amazing in store for their viewers. Let’s find out what shows we should not miss.

Comedy Central: Workaholics and The Kroll Show

Q: What is Workaholics all about, and should I watch it?
A: Workaholics is a popular show on Comedy Central that is now on its fourth season. The show revolves around three best friends who drink, screw up, and work as telemarketers to achieve comedy. If you haven’t seen it, it’s available on every streaming outlet. Workaholics has been a hit from day one, and I highly recommend it.

Q: Can you give me an overview of The Kroll Show?
A: The Kroll Show is a solo sketch show created by Nick Kroll. He’s a well-known actor and stand-up comedian, and now he’s bringing in a ton of guest stars, including Ed Helms, Adam Pally, and Jenny Slate. The show starts with the lead character playing one of the cavemen in the old ABC caveman sitcom. It’s a middling to good premiere episode, but I have high hopes for this one, so I recommend you check it out.

TBS: Cougar Town

Q: What is Cougar Town, and why should I watch it?
A: Cougar Town is a show that initially ran for three seasons on ABC and was then rescued by TBS. The show is about a group of friends in their 30s and 40s and has a fantastic chemistry that creates a ton of laugh-out-loud moments. It was created and run by the same person who brought Scrubs to prominence, which is another great comedy. Cougar Town is back on TBS for its fourth season, and I recommend you give it a chance if you’re a fan of ensemble comedies.

Adult Swim: Newsreaders

Q: What is Newsreaders all about?
A: Newsreaders is a new show spawned from Children’s Hospital, which is a medical drama comedy. Newsreaders takes the drama of running an investigative news show, and turns it into comedy. It has a deadpan anchor and politics happening behind-the-scenes, think like The Newsroom but with a comedic spin. The show has a strong pedigree and writing staff, and there’s a lot to look forward to. It starts airing midnight of Wednesday, or Thursday depending on your time zone.

Conclusion

The Monito has given you a quick tour of the TV shows you must watch out for from Comedy Central, TBS, and Adult Swim networks for 2013. Workaholics and Cougar Town are familiar titles that definitely deserves a spot in your TV program’s lineup, while The Kroll Show and Newsreaders bring in new breeds of comedy to light. Keep on watching and enjoy!
