Sprint Adds Comedy Channel

  • October 4, 2006
Sprint will be the first wireless carrier to offer "Laugh Riot," a comedy channel created by GoTV Networks that includes highlights of "Jimmy Kimmel Live" and episodes of "The Improv" live comedy show. "Laugh Riot" will also feature a mobile version of "Ask a Ninja," the humorous advice-giving site, and GoTV's original "Nic Nac Show" that will focus on "Jackass"-style stunts. Spearheading the development of programming for "Laugh Riot" is Chris Greenleaf, who was involved in the production of "South Park" at Comedy Central. Subscribing to the new comedy channel will cost Sprint customers an extra $6 a month.
