"Michael and Michael Have Issues"
Airdate: 10:30-11 p.m. Wednesday, July 15 (Comedy Central)

Excerpt from a 'meh' review of the the premiere:

The pilot consists of the two Michaels vying for the attention of an intern who wants to write a story for his school paper; the two men (loosely called so) pick at each other until, somehow inevitably, they end up shirtless on Black's front lawn and feint until they exhaust themselves.

That's a great moment, but others are harder to find, couched in tiresome packaging and dulled by dated concepts. Abstinence pledge humor is so 2006, but a faux PSA featuring a fey, bewigged Black as devoted to abstinence with his teen girlfriend (but planning to ride cross-country with his gym buddy) overrides that flaw. "Bob the Quiet Weatherman" is a simply wonderful piece of absurdity. Butterfly farting and a horror movie trailer (despite Christopher Meloni's cameo)? Not so much.

You'll recognize the two Michaels from "Wet Hot American Summer". ;)

Maybe the trailer for 'Carriers' plays during the commercials?

Heh, the two Michaels. *g*
