Comedy Central begins on Sky

Comedy Central went live on Sky channel 010 yesterday, rather fitting for April Fools day.

The channel will be run by MTV Australian & New Zealand, who also operate our MTV and Nickelodeon channels on Sky.

Although Comedy Central is perhaps the world's biggest comedy brand, this is the first time the channel has been available in the Southern Hemisphere.

The 24/7 Sky channel will feature classic comedy shows such as Frasier, The Goodies, Seinfeld, and The Young Ones as well as recent hits including 30 Rock, Entourage, and How I Met Your Mother.
